Stardawg17, Dutch Bucket, Cookie Wreck, 2020: Dive Into The Deep End

[PK]

dude you are rocking it @stardawg17 So, happy to see you are hands on and took care of your project proffesionally.
It's good to see its coming all together and the system being built. Love the scince behind your drip system. Gravity deffinitly helps.
Will you also apply a vapor barrier to minimize the heat scape or are you gona depend on the tent?
@SmokeSara wouldn't you say one or two of those sp3000 would go a long way with his setup

 

[stardawg17]

Hey thanks PK... I'll post pics tomorrow off my vapor barrier.... I wish I had lined the walls and ceiling with plastic but I got anxious to get growing

 

[PK]

its still not too late as it will help allot and keep the cost down on losing heat or cold air depending if your having a ac in there

Thanks Vet!

I need to visit the local hydro shop and get pH and EC calibration kits and I should be just about ready to drop my seeds

OK...I may be just a bit pedantic, but, I'm also a pragmatist and I know my limitations. As my Dad always said..."good enough." The work you're about to see is pretty rough, but "good enough."

This is pretty cool...the dehumidifier reclaimed about 4 gallons in 24 hours

 

[PK]

not sure why you need a dehumidifyer, cuz that room should be warm with less humidity. I'm also surprised you close your tent door and got no farns running.

There's nothing growing in there yet... I'm still assembling... But I'm just about ready to drop my seeds in water. I went to the hydro store today and got some clay pellets and perrilite. Hopefully tomorrow I can do my dry run. I know my return pipe is a little too high right now, but, the exit hole in the tent is 6.5" from the tent floor so I may need to raise the buckets instead of lowering the pipe. I'm concerned about the grow height of the plants. Tent is only 79" tall, the buckets are 12" on 7" risers and my lights need to be 32" from the plants. :/

Regarding RH my AC doesn't allow me to close circulation so it's always bringing in most air. I change the setting this afternoon and now my conditions are hitting my targets spot on.

Nice build. Kind of funny seeing all that conduit going into the shack. Then seeing the inside finished...

Data cables running in there as well, a human could live in there with the plants is it getting running water and sewage? But looks great honestly

Actually...I plan to put a drain in the corner and I think I'm gonna make a basin with a 5 gallon jug with a tap above it. That way I can wash things there in the sed

[The Phantom]
