Default Setting up my new vertical cupboard

I havent grown anything for years, but the sad state of the local product has forced me to set something up!

For mothers and clones, I'll probably just use off the shelf grow-tents, but after checking out some of the awe-inspiring vertical grows on this and other sites I had to have a crack at it myself.

The plan is to use "AutoPot AquaValve's" to supply nutrients to 20 trays on shelves in a sort of double cupboard, with 4 x 15l pots of soil in each tray - So 80 plants in total.

The main cupboard is 3.5m x 1.75m, divided in half by a column of shelves, and I'm hanging 3 x 600w "dual spectrum" hps bulbs in each side.

Here are a bunch of photo's of the build so far, questions and suggestions welcome!

This looks like a very promising setup I'll be along for the ride I've been contemplating a stadium style for my next setup

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to seeing what my cupboard produces, this room looks amazing!

I'll post more pictures soon, I have some cad files here somewhere too.

Wired up all the electrical stuff today, and test-ran it for a few hours before I tidy up all the cables- Everything seems sweet!

Finally got all the trays and pots, so the final step is to test the plumbing, then I'm good to go!

For this first crop, I'm going to be doing half K4, and half Kush

looks really cool man. Def a good set-up, you obviously have experience. I have a question. Is that Mylar you are using? black one side, white on the other? I need something to block the light out from a closet, Ive tried , nothing really seems to work so well. Does that stuff block the light, Let me know. Thanks

I'm going to put some reflective mylar on the inside of the doors, but all the stuff in the photo's is generic black/white plastic sheeting from a local garden center, which seems to be pretty light-tight.
