I would lend you mine but I'm nowhere near Alaska. KP do you have a drill? You can get that stuff for about 60 bucks, drill and hole saw bits.....

Also could you build me some, I have no time with the new house..it's killing me...lol

cool lil setup KP, but ya need a drip loop on your air lines and ele cords, and a back flow stop. the drip loop will stop any water you get on your airline while changeing your res or checking ph/ppm from getting into your air pump. and the back flow stop will stop the pump from makeing a vaccuum if that pump went out on just 1 side. ( happened to me at least 8 times last year useing those cheapo walmart pumps) other that that you look set to do some damage. good luck and hope it all works out for ya.

you ain't seen nothin yet babe; these will be recirculating dwc ;)

and i have safety valves, they'll be right at the pump. i'm trying to get the 112w air pump off ebay, but so far i'm not rich enough...

60 plant SOG hydro... your my "kind" of woman. lol i did a 60 plant SOG last year but i used 2, 50 gallon reses'sss(sp) and just 2" pots. i also used 6 of the air pumps like you have with 24" air curtains, and like you i use GH 3 parter with a lil super thrive.
it was a huge let down. i left them over the weekend and came back to 60 dead clones and a grow room full of water. thanks to 1 air pump 1/2 assed going out and draining my res. i was cryin like a fat kid that ate his last cookie.

thats the bad thing about aero and dwc that once the power goes out you have 12 hrs to fix your problems or else everything is a waste, rockwool is more forgiving when there is no power.

and KP if you can pull off 3lb per 1 1kwatter then you've done the most unimaginable. I've known people that try or do their best to get like 2.5lb(this is what i hear) per 1kwatt and thats the most i can imagine because im only getting a average of 1.5 lb, yup thats not alot but i know there is much more improvement to be done.

Holla back!
