"Battlestar Ganjatica" build with CXB3590

yes most definitely will share how things go. KB Jerry is my man. My cobs are scheduled to be delivered thurs! Im all set except for the cobs. Next week i can finish up!

im super grateful for the learning and support up in here. Last year i was blinded by the light, From folks here at RIU I advaced my shit tremendously.

did you build this thing yet?

hey tim,

Hell ya. Its been running bright for a few weeks now. Everything worked out fine. Realstyles gave me some help at the very end and kite highs old posts convinced me to add a uvb tube.



Hers a pic showing two weeks growth. The little lady in the front in first pic, I put her outdoors for now. Days are rapidly getting shorter.

I also raised the panel about 4 inches. Ive been playing around with the lenses removing and then retuning, not sure on those.

ya sure, ill need to take few pics. i use a 480 cfm fan and a large phresh 6" , the flow thru style where there are no holes on the cannister just openings on each end and baffles inside. I have the exhaust connected directly to the bathrooms hvac vent. The exhaust air makes a gentle fresh breeze into the 3rd floor bathroom directly above. The room has no windows the room is 4' x 8'. I use saucers for the pots but it still gets grimy. I foliar 2x weekly. Its easy to lift the plants out and scrub everything down. Afterwards it is amazingly bright in there. I use double white shower curtains and have a basic box fax blowing down from close to ceiling. I dont practice flushing but i do use drenches and its no problem overflowing tbe saucers and thoroughly soaking the pots.

People have made a lot of funny bathroom grow jokes! It works great for me and its reflective and very cleanable and private!

@testiclees have you thinked about flood and drain system in bath tube ? i think it would be epic

I havent.
im a rather new grower and im trying to master "high brix" growing technique. Ive had good results but i am shooting for virtuosity. I use tested soil with amendments and foliars.

Im not opposed to testing out another technique when i feel satisfied with the brix results.

Do you think that flood and drain supplies a more robust stream of nutrients that could better keep pace with demands from the high irradiance?
