2 aeroponic tubs, inspired by DrGreenFinger's step-by-step thread on a similar set up, will be in the tent.
https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/156863-grow-2-lbs-2-x.html

Starting assembly over the next week or two as the carbon filter setup is figured out and a clip-on fan is purchased (and a couple other small things).

Will be documenting room (w/ pics) assembly through the first grow's flowering in this thread. Does anyone have any tips/suggestions based off this proposed set up? The room will be tested for a couple days before growing (mainly temperature / timer monitoring).

15-18 sites is the target per tub. So, if there were 36 sites in both tubs under 400w, any guesses on yield? Could it yield 2 lbs (1 oz per SoG site) if everything goes right (not expected for the first few...)

Note: Updates to this thread may be few and far between intially, until the actual grow starts.
 
Hmm... what determines if you are able to edit a previous post? I'm able to on other threads, but none of these posts will allow me to edit... :(
