I finally have the things I need to get this thing off to the races. I will post pics as I go along. I figure it will take me about 4-8 hours to build. So have a bit of patience with me. By the way my Critical +, Blue Widow, Northern Lights x Big Bud, AK-48, and some random bag seed all popped. I soaked them in some water in a cup for a few hours and then used the paper towel method. So im super stoked! Not bad for a first timer:mrgreen: This site has helped a ton!!:joint:
 
Thanks for the good thoughts. These damn Uniseals are HELL m8... That 4-8 hour time frame has just been increased. LOL :)
 
The pics is the dry set up of the tent and the Uniseals. More pics shall come.:blsmoke: BTW everything will be white. Well the totes at least. :peace:

Correct I am running a 600kw MH for veg but a 1000kw hps and the 600kw MH will be used for Flower. The 1000Kw is a dimmable digital ballast and the 600kw is a galaxy regular digital ballast. BTW ppl to make your life a boat load easier when using uniseal. GRAB SOME 2" COUPLERS!!!! That way u can force one side in at a time and wont have to fight the damn thing. It hit me late. So off to the hardware store I go.
 
Going to be interesting to see what you can grow in 27 gallon pots! I saw 1 guy that used 50 gallon pots for his containers. Claimed to get 10 pounds per.

Cheers to you!
 
Here are a few more pics. The items have been dry fitted. I am trying to figure out if I want to use pvc cement on the 2" pipe...??? I think I may go with silicone if I have to take it apart at some time or point I can. What do you guys and girls think about it so far?

How are you keeping the misters from spraying liquid out from under the lid? My buddy used the same tubs in a similar setup but had to abandon it after massive leakage... even though the lid sits flush it doesn't seal.

Also I noticed you painted the lids. How is the light penetration after doing that?

Looking good so far! Cheers!
