Hey everyone. I haven't been on here in a while but I thought I would drop in and post some shots of some new and upgraded rooms I have built.
Since its been so long since my last post I am starting this in volumes, this first grow is an 8,400watt 25 x 3G bucket DWC setup with piggy backed 120G reservoirs equaling a total of 160 gallons of water all circulating through a 1/4HP Ecoplus 200g water chiller. All ballasts are 600 w Lumiteks super boost ballasts and lights are air cooled with a giant 3/4 HP 3500 BTS 12" Box fan that we insulated, sound proofed and gave its very own room to. Then there are 6" booster fans where each 6" ducting goes to lights to help air flow (like it needs it).
All the buckets are sitting on wood pallets with thru-hulls facing down and irrigation plumbed inside of pallets to keep room tidy and water flowing at its best. Each flowering room has a 10,000BTU Air conditioner. C02 is added using bottled C02, sniffers and a central brain, I cram the small spaghetti hose through the back of a wall fan to emit co2 over garden.
Walls are neatly lined in panda plastic (Black and white poly plastic) and then within flower rooms covered in mylar. Floors in flower rooms are then covered in a heavy duty white tarp to reflect light and help keep room clean.
There is an entrance room where nutrients are kept, hand sanitizers, tidex suits, foot wear etc, a water room which has the piggy backed reservoirs, sink, more nutrients, ph/ppm controllers, co2 brain. Then there is a ballast room housing 14 ballasts, a fan and vents to cool them. There is a Air room which holds the massive box fan situated on 5 wooden pallets to raise off the groundto be light height and sound proofed, and finally the two flower rooms.

... the black lines where the feed lines and the 1" through hulls where drilled in to the very bottom of the buckets so all the water left the buckets, they where raised on wood pallets and the return lines went in to the water room where two 140 Gallon reservoirs where piggy backed on to each other and connected to a 1/4 Hp water chiller. It was pretty sweet its too bad that place never got planted.
