I learned alot from here so even though you bastards killed my avatar (best one on the site) I came back to help.
This is my current setup exactly.
Been through too many changes to count.
I still want to do a stadium but with hydro looking interesting ive been reluctant to build any physical structures permanent.
If you want to smoke weed of your own. And you want to walk away with enough to last you a few months this I would say is the minimum setup. Put a price tag next to each item and you know what you need to spend if your growing in an apartment at least. And most importantly this is an apartment setup where smell is #1 importance.
I started smaller and I feel like I still need to expand so I can slow down but for now, this setup is killer on smell, temp and production.
What I cant live without.
The garbage bin - cant imagine carrying water from my kitchen by the bucket or something crazy. I fill this with a hose once a week. Always enough. From the bin I use a plain old plant waterer bucket but the bin is kept right next to hut and clone area uncovered for humidity improvement and is oxygenated with a pump and diffuser.
Sprayer 2.5 Gal - When I wasnt cloning I thought it was useful for seedlings and for early veg stages. When I started cloning I realized it was mandatory. Just like the garbage bin you can live without it. But life is so much more peaceful with these two.
Speed Controller - I dont know what people do without them but whenever I change a config like adding or removing carbon filters or even change duct directions air flow can have huge differences making my hydrohut literally want to explode if too much in or suck in the walls beyond belief if too much out ( this is because my hydrohut is almost air tight the fans can kill thing now) The speed controller is manual but at least it works.
And some takeaways.
1.) Humidity domes on clones is like 100% improvement. I mean no one ever really stressed this so I learned this one on my own. But humidity dome is absolutely crucial to my successful clones.
2.) And also dont waste your time buying seeds. You cant be buying seeds every week to grow. You gotta buy a 5 pack and clone them. Why? Because you want a room of all females and you want uniform size and you dont want hermaphrodites. Get a 50 buck 5 pack and clone yourself a 1000 clones for free. But again no one stressed this. I tried to not setup a clone area but this is a no brainer if once again you want productivity and dont have a million bucks for 100 packs of seeds you need a clone area and need to be clonin.
