Man i wish i had the time to document it all while it was getting build. Being a full time student my time i s very scarce.
Ill probably throw them all my ideas and there gonna pick and choose what fits there budget hehe.
Might not even happen with all the b.s going on with cali dispensary's. Seems to be a new anti dispensary law created everyday.
yeah ima full time student as well... i understand the time thing.. what part of cali you floodin up? lol

Well hello folks! Just to fill everyone in that did not follow my last grow, im going big lol! A good friend of mine and i are going in together and growing some danky mc'danksome. this will probly be a large post so buckle up grab a drink and some pop corn and follow along.

lights: four 1000w hortilux Super HPS for flower with fresca sol water cooled
system and fresca sol reflector




the ballast are going to be 4 infinity 1000 watt switchable running on
120v. the 4 lights will be split into two separate 20amp breakers so if
something happens with two we still have 2000 watts running.the
chiller for the lights will either be a 1/3 to 1/2 hp with a 50 to 100gl
res.

as of right now two 8 bulb t5 light systems from sunleaves.com from what i can remamber they put out about 80-90,000 lumen each.


plants: we have ourselves 8 moms;
g13

matanuska thunderfuck

pre '98 bubba

banana kush

sour kush

kushberry


now the final two are special. we recieved these ladies from a local reputable breader. the first is;
mr.E - which is og x and diesal
the second is;
48 gods - which is ak-48 x gods gift
these two are in soil for now, but as soon as we get a good clone from each we will be going hydro on thier ass.
all of our mothers are grown with mother plant nutrients. and so far they are loving it and it is living up to its claims. there are tons of clone sites with thick healthy stems. i highly recomend this to anyone growing moms.

clones: will be rooted in our 96 site turbo-cloner.

vedge: we will be putting them into our turbo cloner and leaveing them there until flower. the reason for this will be explained in my flowering section.
the moms will be perma-vedged in hydro-farm buckets with the res and circulation kit.





flower: we will be going for a perpetual harvest of 30 or so plants every 4 to 5 weeks so we will be running 2 aero-flo2 30 site systems. now the reason for the short vedge time is because the distance between sites on the aero-flo are only 5 or 6" so we cant have them too big. they will stay in the cloner for about two to three weeks after showing a good amount of roots. we will not be filling all 96 spots on the cloner so i think we have the space. plus the banana grows insanely fast at about an inch to inch and a half a day. it was the same size as the others when we picked her up.

water: we have ourselves our very own 100gpd ro system from hydro-logic and are being monitored by our tri meters


ummm... am i missing anything? im pretty medicated right now so im not sure if i covered everything. let me know what u all think and like allways, all comments good or bad are welcome.
Its so refreshing to see someone using "water cooled lighting", how complicated was it to setup.. is there any danger of the water coming in contact with the electrical components etc ?? Also I am interested in how much it cost you? .......Anyhow mad REP! for a great setup !! - STELTHY :leaf:

When I get back home I am going to read through this thread. It looks awesome just when I breeze through a few pages :)

excellent bit of electronics man ! PH , PPM , TEMP, ALL IN ONE,, LOOKS LIKE A RELIABLE BIT OF KIT ALSO !!!!! HOW MUCH WOULD ONE OF THESE COST AND WHAT ARE THEY CALLED ? thanx!

The set up wasent to complicated as long as you get everything nice and thight, not much danger since theres 2 tubes around the light bulb one time it happened the light bulb went out and that was pretty much the end of it, but you can get solenoids to control any disasters. everything to set up budding room/vegging room/construction would be around 10k or so didnt really keep track. Thanks for the rep :)

they are not worth the money, any ballast within 15ft will fuck up the reading save your money.

Lol just saw this old post and immediately thought of the nutradip trimeter, sure enough thats what you guys are talking about. Had those on all my reservoirs back when digital ballasts first came out, the silver lumateks. I bought a lumatek to test it next to the magnetic ballasts. As soon as the lights would come on the trimeters would go nuts and give really high ppm readings as I remember.

Resurrecting the thread? Sounds great. Any plans for the new grow setup?

going to be doing a 2k HPS vertical set up vs 2k HPS horizontal set up. Already running.

Yeah those trimeters were complete shit!
