New Aeroflo2 60 Grow! Started from the ground up! Lots of Pics!!

Hey everyone,

I just got a place to start my first Aeroflo2 60 grow. I am doing everything ( all construction myself) so it is taking some time. I just started soaking the seeds today and the room should be done in the next couple of days. Here's a little bit about the room:

Aeroflo 60
4 600 HPS air cooled lights (2 conversion MH for Veg)
Phresh filter
Sentinel Room Controller
Tital Helios Light control
CAP C02 generator
A/C
Dehumidifier
RO system
EZ Cloner 60
T44 florescent lights (4-4ft tubes)

This is my first time using an aeroponic system. I was really stuck about what to do starting from seed but this is what I am going to try: Germinating the seeds on a tray in moist paper towel with a heat matt underneath. When they sprout i was going to put them in the ezclone to grow some roots under the T44.. Once they grew some roots I was going to put them in the aeroflow for veg.

ALL INPUT AND SUGGESTIONS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

I will be updating at least everyday if not more :smile:

Thanks for looking and for your help :smile:
 


This is the beginning.. I am doing it all myself without anyone's help so the design is made so i can handle it myself and not screw anything into any of the walls what so ever! This is the mess of a Breaker Box..I cant tell you How hard it was to get all this lumber in..yes i used that cart :smile: building something to cover that huuuge window..starting the frame..

Any comments?​

Wow as a certified elecrician I am scared for your house. I would get those power wires in some conduit or outta the way. I use mc (metal clad) wire. I would recomend running 240volts for your lights if your ballast are capable. Ballast runs cooler, more efficient and you could run all your lights off 2 20amp breakers joined together. Besides the electrical I love the room, check out some of my threads for some tips. I recomend you use superthrive with whatever other regiment of nutrients you plan on using. Good luck hope you don't need any advice, but if you do I will have my two cents.
 
Hey Urban, Thanks so much for the post.. I always love advice!! I was going to go with the conduit, but in the state of Ca you cant use it with romex... it is considered "double insulation"... weird I know! Also, I dont want to put any holes in the wall as I rent lol... any other ideas? I have more pics if that will help! I know it looks jumbled, but a lot of the wires are moved out of the way because they are the old wiring that I will have to reconnect when I am done with the facility. The light controller that I am using (Titan Helios) is a 120v as well as my ballasts. It requires 1 50amp power source. I used that double 50 breaker so that I could use a second titan when I am ready! Thanks again for looking and keep the suggestions coming!! I love them all.

As always.. All suggestions and comments are welcome!! Ill have pics of the seeds and more of the room tomorrow!
 
Dang dude, you're rockin' it with a quickness. looks like you have everything ready. I didn't think you would get it all done before the seeds were ready to move. You drop some serious coin to blow all that out at one time! I'll be watching 4 your next posts
 
Hey Shadow,

I bustin ass to get everything done.. When I checked the seeds this am they all had tails :) I set up the ezclone today with some light! Pics below :)
 


This is the inside of the easy cloner..this is a T44 Florescent system. There are 4-4 ft. tubes. You can see that I put the seeds in the cloner and there are tails (roots)coming out the bottom.this is the pump timer.. right now its set to 3min on and 6 off​
