Nice journal!
And nice room/setup.
Good decision to go with the flood and drain too, it's slightly more forgiving than NFT, yields will still be impressive tho
yea i cant wait to get it up and fully running with all trays and every thing full stick around it ill get better and better

Pics, You start setting up yet?
Man I like your Idea. But if it was My room, I would run dual cool tubes.
http://www.4hydroponics.com/lighting/rhyd60.asp
6ft cool tube with 1000w on both sides. Run 2 of these on 6ft light rails.
Separate 2 rooms, 8ft by 8ft. In each room have the dual cool tube on a 6 ft light rail, run them at separate times so the power doesnt spike and is constant.
I would just poly out the rooms with panda film and do soil. Way easier to manage, and setting up a soil grow is way fucking cheaper and easier then trying to set up your first place on hydro. And IMO you cant replicate the dank stickiness of soil grows, hydro grows fast, smooth smoke when done right, but soil has that sticky dankness that you just cant get any other way.
Each room could be pushing out 4-6 pounds. Start one half way through the other and you could crop 3-6 pounds every 5 weeks with 4k of flowering power.
Then run a couple 250w or 400w for a veg/mothers and your set.

However long you think it will be, triple that, lol.
I thought I would be cropping this strain back in September....then it was spose to be December. Now its gonna be February.
Nothing ever gets done on time when setting up new grow rooms.
Theres always something else that needs to be bought or done.

yea i know thats how it always happens we should be harvesting in about 12 to 16 weeks but we should be up and fully running bye the 8 weeks im pretty surethis first crop we will take clones and flower the seed to sex but were gonna do them a lil different but by that time everything should be rightHowever long you think it will be, triple that, lol.

no worries bro. +rep and many props for attempting all those strains at once. i'm really curious to see how you go about maintaining this setup. it just MIGHT be crazy enough to work... definitely keeping a close watch on this thread.
good luck!

i had the same problem with the pics... i resized them to be 800 px max (even though it says 600 px max) and it worked... the file size could be too large.
