Here is my second grow. The first was done in a mini fridge. 1 plant and I crammed a 250w light in it. I had some issues with heat, room, water circulation. I've learned and moved on to this.
It's in a DR60 tent (24x24x52). I have a 18 Gallon plastic container pumping water up to each of the four 5 Gallon buckets housing 1 plant each. In the bucket there is a spill pipe leading down through the bottom and back into the main reservoir. There is also a bubble disk in the bottom of each bucket. There is plenty of room for roots and circulation. Also, I can leave this thing only on a light timer for up to 2 weeks without even touching it! There is so much water circulating around that it is very self sufficient for long periods. Also, I can take the black hose out of each bucket and spray into a side bucket I use for water cycling. I use a gasoline bucket as it's easy to poor back in the bottom reservoir when I fill it back up.
The light is a MH 250w. I have a cool tube fitted with a FRESH carbon filter sitting between the buckets. A commercial inline fan is pulling plenty of air though to keep it cool. I'll switch to HPS when I flower.
I'll post more on the side fridges from my previous grow to show how I conceled the fan so it operates silent and smell less. This whole 4 plant unit is in a closet and you'd never know it is there if you came in my place. I have a cloning box along side using LED's, also air filtered.
Im also using advanced nutrients
Still has some weeks of veg to fill in the space before I start flowering.
The idea of this project was complete stealth and efficiency.
