Pro craft setup

So I decided to make individual stalls so I can diversify my strains in progress. I have 4- 5x5' stalls with panda film fronts that I installed zippers on.

The walls are made from 2x4's and 3/8" drywall. I hung the walls from the ceiling leaving a gap in the bottom. (Im mainly hydro, so this will keep water leaks and spills from warping my drywall)


Anyhow, I will scrog 2 plants in each of my sativa cabinets and 4 in my indica and hybrid stall. Currently have one super silver closet, a super lemon, and a trainwreck.

Im running a RDWC system with a float valve in my reservoir with a water top off. Also my reservoirs are all outside of my room allowing me to change water anytime.

Here some pics of the setup. Running 1000w in sativa stalls and 2-600w in my Indy stall.

Will add fans when I kick into flower. Trying to decide between oscillating and box fans for hot spot control.

If anyone has used both and have input feel free to post. Im leaning toward box fans blowing right under the light across the top of canopy.

Dimensions of walls ar 6x6x8'. My ceilings are about 9' so there is a 4 inch gap at ceiling for hot air to escape, and about 6" on the bottom. Should make for good heat ventilation. Also halve a carbon filter t'd between my flower and veg room hooked up to a thermostat control. Turns on automatically when the temp exceeds 72° in the shade. Keeps my canopy at 80°. I made a crawl space to the attic and cut a hole in it. Placed my fan in the attic pulling warm air up. I have a helps filter hooked up to an outside window replacing the warm air with filtered cool air.

Went with the box fan, and I'm really glad I did. Swirls air lightly through the canopy but keeps a solid current through my hotspot. Think its all the air flow I will need.

So far I haven't added the fresh water top off... it seems that recirculation has cured the ph creeping that I've experienced in stand alone buckets...

Hoping it stays steady when I switch to bloom line up
