Talking More Work Completed!
Hey StinkBud - we have been very busy builders this weekend - take a look at our work in progress.
Got Pictures Today:
What we did:
Installed 240v Lines with a 20 Fuse Pull Switch for )easy/safe access.
Converted all our MH lights from 110 to 240 to save $ - 4amps to 2amps
Installed (2) 240v Electric Timers - Flower Room 12/12 - Mother Tray 18/6
Installed (5) 400w MH Lights and Ballasts - 4 for Flower Room, 1 Mother

Now we need to install the divider that will separate the Flower room from the Veg room and then install the air intake and out for each side of the room for Veg and Flower, along with the Carbon filter for smell .

My poor babies have been doing well through the contruction dust and movement. I hope they continue to do as well. Can you think of anything that I can improve or change with our set-up - all our friends here are welcome to comment in our grow room journal.

Thanks for answering all my questions stinkbud.

Galo your room looks awesome!!

Hey guys,,, where im at the humidity outside has reached 86% and it looks like rain in the forecast in a day or two.
My flower room temp is between 61- 63deg daylight, its cold tonight, 56deg outside.
My humidity in the room is 67%.

The temp seems low, and can easily be fixed when i add another light soon. But the humidity seems high at 67%. My exhaust is running 24/7 and i have the oscilating fan blowing at all times.
but still the exhaust is sucking in cool humid outside air. If i turn off the exhaust fan it would probably warm up but then the humidity would go up.

I just picked up a dehumidifier at Frys for $150. I just plugged it in and came out and read this post. You must have ESP.

I have it set for 45-55%. It has a hose attachment in the back so I can have the water drain right back into one of the reservoirs (I need a hose).

I keep pushing the roots back into the fence post for the first few days until I get tired of it and just say fuck it and cut'em. I don't know why but cutting the roots dosn't effect the plants. Even the end plants. Weird but true...

Eventually they will grow into a mat covering the whole bottom of the fence post.

After a while you will have new tap roots growing out into the water. I don't cut them until I have to. The only thing you really have to watch out for is the roots getting sucked up into the pump.

The mat is made of a million little tiny root hairs. It turns black/brown from the nutrients. It's actually kind of cool looking. It dosn't look like any normal root system you have ever seen.

When I used to grow soil I would end up with this huge root ball. With Aero I end up with a little fuzzy afro.

I am looking to build one of these, I have read through the thread and seen what is needed, etc. However i have one major issue, i dont have the height available that this setup seems to need (im guessing that with even a 3' tall plant i will need 5')

My plan is to build a cloner, veg and flower. I am working with what will be divided into 2 sections, the clone/veg location, and the flower. I only want to do 3-4 plants. I have the 150w HPS light coming, and might get a fl for the veg/clone so my height requirement drops on that side...

Has anyone figured out how to make this setup "smaller" in terms of height, not plants, but just height, I know smaller containers will work, but if im doing 3-4 plants total, how large of a rubbermaid should i have?

Rubbermaid makes the same size containers only shorter. Since you only have a few plants, it would work great.

My little 6 hole unit is growing out of control right now. I vegged them for a month and I wouldn't be surprised to pull 10-12oz. just from that one harvest. It uses a little 10 gal res. The Aero/NFT systems can use any brand of container since there are no sprayers inside the res.

If you don't have a local store you can order them online. You can get the sprayers, pump, nutes and net pots all at the same time.

If you do have a local hydro store have them order the stuff for you and keep it in stock for when you need it. Always support your local community if possible!!!!

Always order twice as many sprayers as you need. That way you will always have a clean set to put in after every harvest.
