20+60 ebb/drip plant operation...second go...white berry + outdoor sativa strain

This is a room i made to start my new operation, i currently have 20 plants i started on 12 12 this week from clone, 12 on a dripping system using tubes, and 8 on a ebb and flow home made table, each set under a 400w solar max hps bulb....there showing great root growth already and are growing huge..almost 7 inches this week..k both these systems are on one side of the room..i still have to seperate both sides...the other side is for my new white berry feminized seeds i started just over a week ago.....there under a 400 watt metal halide right now and coming along beautiful......when these are big enough to cut clones im going to use the othe rpart of the room to do 4 tables with 16 in each tab le with a few 1000w hps bulbs, i have ventilation fpor fresh air as well but am waiting to set that up, im going to start recording daily and ill add new pics daily....each step i take.....heres some pics of the faulty wall and the growing area, i did this in the basement...the first few pics are of the wall lookin all morman...the rest are of the secret door and the tubes and the table in the first week of flower....the others are of the 3 feminized white berries with their huge leqaves compared to the sativa strain i have been working with.....let me know what you think, and suggestions are more than welcome.....im hoping to eventually have 80 going just as soon and the white berry is ready..

Also does anyone have any tips on how to improve any of these methods....i appreciate it very much!!!

wow..dopest hidden room i have seen in a long time lol keep it up grow looks soooo freakin sick

thanks man thats what i was going for....subscribe and ill keep it updated...took about 300 bucks to make the actual wall and frame......hope i can make it back...he he he... the whole area behind it is 12/10 feet so its quite a bit to work with, its my first hydro grow so i hope everything goes well...im using flora products for the drip and fox farm for the ebb and flow for nutes....

just popped in to see what you had going on. i did not get past the first few pics and saw your set up in the 6" pipe. where you get the idea at man. i just put mine together almost the same way. got the idea from the hydro store and a set up he was selling for $300. i built mine for a 1/8 of the price. before i ask you a ton of question i will read the rest of your thread. but at least tell me how long you have been using the tubes.

looks great man. mine is a little different. instead of the drip system, i have a spray line running through the pipe. inside the pipe its spraying water all over. the drain is located up about 2in on the pipe. so there is a reservoir about 2" deep. i also have 2 air stones in the pipe for oxygen. sort of like a bubbler with the added spray line. my system took alot of work, and may seem like to much trouble. but the object is to have it run with little attention. i work out of town all week. while i am gone the only thing i have to worry about is the ph. the wife takes care of it. it basicly runs it self.

got the tubes from a friend and these ones have holes for misters too, i had the same problems with working alot and the soil was too much maintenance so i switched to this and it basically runs itself.....so much easier than soil...ill never go back...nice man ill check out your journal...stay tuned for the upkeep of my journal

thats amazing
except the extension cord is kind of a give away but thats really easy to fix.
the only thing that that is missing is a book shelf and you have to pull out the right book
for it to open.
For aesthetic reasons you might want to make the irrigation systems identical.

I had to think really hard for those criticisms. I know that if you went far enough to
make a false wall you wont have any problems. Almost all problem are a result of laziness and a lack of money so things should go perfect for you.

also, how do you set up a pole question?

yeagh im going to be making them similar but with smaller baskets and more plants per table...i have not finished setting everything up, i have to wire the receptacle still so that will take care of the cord and im gonna finish the door to seal it better, i have to add vents and fresh air as well, more wattage and seal the whole thing with black and white, i also have to make an official mum and cloning section under t5s and a 400w metal halide, and thanks alot for the input...went to all that trouble and am advertising on the net...he he he.....its a friends basement anywayse....yeagh....anyways thanks for the criticisms the more i get the better things will go......what strains are all of you growing right now??? has anyone ever went with white berry or heard any feedback...the seed site says it smells like berry and turns a purply kind of color when its in bloom.....i cant friggin wait......and the difference in the leaf texture and size and shap from a sativa is incredible...looks like a totally different plant so far...almost like a cabbage or somthing.....it just asked me if i wanted to add a pole somwhere in the options when i was creating this thread....maybe it is a journal only option i cant be sure...do some experimenting!!!

Quick tip, get rid of the light leak to your Vegging room, the plastic shows a hole =).
Nice setup though, I had a similar idea, Did you build this wall yourself?

I've only ever heard good things about whiteberry, unfortunately there isn't any where I live.

yeagh i actually cut a slit and put another piece over it for 12 off....i keep having problems with my bulbs seems like the 2 new solar max bulbs burnt out one today and one yesterday and they were brand new...i wonder if the dealer will replace them, i only started using them like not even 2 weeks ago.......seems pretty shitty if thats the case and they really are bad....good that i had backups but thats like 100 bucks worth of lumens wasted....guess ill have to visit the head shop tomorow or monday

thats a sick setup bro. i like the framing job you did. are you planning on running any electrical as to hide the wiring and ext. cords?

sorry to hear about the bulbs!! That's pretty shitty.........
You set-up looks awesome and stealthy! And great pics!!

So what do you plan to do for power?? You really need to get a dedicated circut in there and get away from the extention cord........you dont even want to run 1 light through that thing.......how many amps is the beaker to the outlet it's using?? then you lose considerably with any distance in that cord.....and your going to run how many light eventually? And fans, air, pumps, etc......... I am not trying to put anything your doing down! And you very well may have all of this figured out too. Just keep it in mind and be safe!!!

growinman

i still have to run some receptacles in the room, and my buddie does all the wiring and stuff...hes got like 5 kids so hes not always able to come over but its coming along, and yeagh lots of cords...ill have to take it as it comes i guess,l and the other part wont be filled for a couple more weeks so i have a bit of time....it was kind of a quick plan to build the wall and everything took me like 2 days to get most of the work done ans thge last few days have just been tweaking and everything.......keep droppin in and ill add some pics in a bit

very nice, cant wait to watch your future threads

good growing

What's up dindy?? You keeping busy? Hope all is going good!

ive been crazy busy with work and all my other side projects...im in the water purification business and i breed different locales of panther chameleons so between this operation i dont have much time...i just bought a 100 foot roll of black and white to finish sealing the room this weekend, im also gonna get into wiring the power supply and a few other things, i went to get my cam to talke some pics of the gurls...there growing like crazy...the root systems are just so formed....anyways the cameraa b attery was dead so it wont be until tomorrow i get to update pics....the white berries are doing great too...all the nodes are growing like millimeters away.....im hoping ill be able to start clones in the next week and a half or so...im dying to smoke some indica....lots of sativa around right now and these little plants are already giving off a minty fruity smell....so ill be back tomorrow to add a few pics and updates...

Hell's yea! I'm grabbing a chair for this one. White Berry should be great. I'm glad to here the nodes are close. Will make for good clone and SOG operation.
