YOU DESIGN MY GROW ROOM!!!! Efficiently and productively, OR ELSE IM DEAD!!

[blackbloc]

OK Rollitup, here is your chance to utilize all the knowledge you have gathered from being on this forum, I need the elite players on this forum to help co-op setup our dispensary's grow room. Here are the measurements given to me by my friend. . I had a friend gave me a diagram, but it was miscalculated by 4 inches being so narrow we actually have a hard time walking and working through the back row. (top) none the less before this was discovered the lights were hung, the plan was executed. It works but the workspace in the back is is very limited. Here are a few pictures of the finished room The ducting on the left is a 12-12-8. the 8 was used for the ac. the other 12 is an exhaust but i have now attached the 8 to exhaust the air-cooled lights. The current setup is really inefficient because it is so hard to get to the res, which sit under the 3x6 trays ( which i last measured was about 76" x 38") lights are radiant 8s. please help with the design. I need some thing simple, productive and efficient. just looking for some ideas.

hi black nice job. well done
could i ask why youre hps/mh lights are so far from the plants.

 

[Zeplike]

im just a noob and certainly no expert but why not do 2 or 3 on a mover instead of 6 hps lights?

I don't like using light movers in flower. Especially if you can afford not to. You are essentially giving your plants reduced light for 25-75% of the time they REALLY need it. Great for veg...shitty for flower.

I wouldnt mind helping. I did a very brief switch around of the room just to get your idea. I dont quite understand your intentions. Do you simply wanna adjust the rooms so their easier to work in?

Just one thing I noticed. You made his 3x6 tables into 3x5 tables.

 

[OgSince03]

I think your right..Must have been from the select tool.. I still would like to know what exactly he wants to do with the rooms. I'll play with it a little more and repost. Thanks Phillip

 

[OgSince03]

Actually now that im looking at it. He only has 1 3x6 table.. The 3x5 tables is what he has depicted in the larger room. I simply removed 2 from the main room, and placed them in the front room. Please give us some feedback on what tables you are using, I cant accurately give you advice without it.

 

[phillipchristian]

It's six tables that are 3x6. And there is only 1 room.

 

[OgSince03]

I agree that he stated they were 3x6, im not arguing that. His picture only has 1 3x6 table, I think the we can both agree on that. I'll fix it using the 3x6 model he has.

Here is 2 more ideas I just fooled with, I'm too tired to play with pencil and pad. Other suggestions or ideas for the op would be nice. When I get off work, and check this thread, and no one has put in a decent idea, I will pull out the pencil and paper and get you going dude. I gotta rest the eyes, work at 8 and its goin on 5...

I am not trying to be a dick but I actually did the original design for this guy in my thread on floorplans. Check out my signature. The plan has 6 3x6 tables, you just aren't reading it correctly. Take a few minutes to look at it and you'll figure it out.

The reason no one is helping is because this same problem has been on 3 other threads in the last week with the same pics. The dimensions still don't add up. And he's got a portable a/c trying to cool 6000 watts. Don't be so quick to blame the forum.

 

[OgSince03]

I'm not blaming the forum buddy. It was 5 in the morning, I couldnt expect too many people to reply along with me.. Thank you for pointing the issue out to me, I didnt realize his means for heat exchange. I can see why your original idea seems best to me.. Not trying to be a dick either, but if he cant figure this simple setup out himself, why the fuck is he in charge of it?? Your original plan was best if I must say so, thats why I couldnt figure out wtf he wanted to do with his room...Crazyness.

It's cool dude. I just figured you weren't seeing that the last table was actually sideways compared to the other 4 next to it. The real problem is that the measurements he is giving don't really add up. I went through it a couple times and based on thise numbers and the ones he gave in the other threads it just doesn't add up to an even room. Not even close. I've offered to help him as much as I can but he just keeps posting different threads under different accounts and asking the same basic question.

 

[OgSince03]

Your right about not seeing the tables sideways. I dont understand people's train of thought behind half assing a room.. The plan you gave him is the only way to run it with the equipment he has for cooling, and space.. I wish mods would delete these kind of re-post. I dont think I would be too worried about the workspace he was complaining about, simply because he has no other options without less trays.. Thanks again Phillip, I will not waste anymore time on this thread!

Hey phil i'm actually someone else, you spoke to my associate. your layout was a good start for me.

we are no longer using ac it didnt seem like it was helping. i did some research some people use one 12000 for 2-3 lights, so our room would require, 3-4. thats extremely costly and will take up alot of space. So for now we are opting out.

Here is an update.
Temperatures with all lights on is now 82-85 which is bearable.
Lights have all been ducted air cooled and exhausted.
we have utilized your layout as the foundation, but i found potential dark spots with the current lighting positioning, So we added two more lights just to fill the void. so we are using 2 lights per 3x6. the last 3x6 off to the side has been removed. The trays are now rotated 90 degrees and positioned side by side. unfortunately, the measurements given to you were not as thorough as they should have been, and the reservoirs were not factored in, providing no walk/work room in the back. phil, sorry for the inconvenience. you have honestly been great help. i hope you aren't upset about the measurements.

No sweat at all dude. I wanted to help you guys out cause I know you had a ton of money invested in this and I didn't want to see it go to waste. Best of luck man and if you need anything you know how to get ahold of me.
