nice setup, thanks for the pics...maybe i will do that and skip the the humidity dome step, just drop the sprouts into rock wool and into the clay medium with a drip. and dont worry about offending me by going off on tangents in this thread, as long as it contributes to the process in some way...

which portion are known to be flakey? or do you mean just dying all together?

ordered the nute monitor, it was like $140 shipped. shop around for "24-7 nutrient monitor" they are made by Control Wizard. read some reviews on this board, and everyone seems to have had a good experience with them. and thanks for the tip about the spacing....i thought that may be an issue...

luckily i live in socal and have a doctors recomendation. so risk is pretty minimal already, that window faces an alley way, with a tall apartment building next door, and no windows too close to my window. i will keep all the curtains drawn obviously when the closet door is open. and if...

here are some pics of teh CWP 24-7 Nutrient Monitor mounted in the room...i think thats pretty much everything that needs to go in there short of plants =]] i do have a question about the nutrient monitor, the PH / temp probe has a plastic white bottle thing with a small amount if odorless...

got my 24-7 multi meter for the tank...its well packaged and, and all the components seem well constructed. it came with all the calibration chemicals. have not calibrated it yet, will do this before i do my next of room temperature / humidity.

so i let the ventilation and the light run for a cycle to get the a sense of the humidity and temp in there. there is currently no water in the bubbler, so i assume that will have an effect on humidity.... but for now the humidity is sitting between 37% and 86%....seems high, maybe i need to...

i would assume he means either the inside of the tank, or the risk of over spraying into it. i cant imagine that paint could seep through glass or plexi.

hah, just a silly pic of one of the twins enjoying the saw dust.

thanks, im excited...i feel like im getting a good start...

so i got pretty lucky and got a pretty solid fit my first try without any extra trimming. i then used the plastic disk i just cut out as a template and drew more circles on the top, and used the same method to cut them out. i did crack to top at one point, only about 2", so no biggie, but this...

ok, next up was finishing up the DWC bin. I starting removing the top and drilling two holes that would provide a tight fit for two air hoses to go through. i then attached a 12" air-stone to each hose, and positioned them to the base of the tub. next up is to make the holes for the baskets...

next on the list of things to do was wiring everything up. quick tip, when mounting things with screw holes (such as my power strip) take a piece of paper and a pencil and while holding the paper over the holes scribble over the holes to create an impression, then just use the paper as a...

can anyone give me advice?

also, does anyone have any shot in the dark guess on what strain my seeds are? can you tell just by how the look? like i said before, i got them from a friend of a friend who has a large scale indoor hydro grow operation (legal, California medical dispensary).

so what does everyone think so far??? also i still have a few questions... i am going away next week for aobut 5 days, so i am thinking that it may be best to not start the seeds that i have until i get back. how long does it usually take to go from un-planted seed to enough roots that i can...

quick not about the vinyl paint i used the tub... while dragging it in and out of the closet which was now a bit of a tight fit, some of the paint on the edges of the top started to peel off. this may just be because of the edges, and maybe some duct tape around em will help, but if it starts...

here are some more pics of it with the lights on...

so at this point its late at night, im making a lot of noise with drilling and screwing and stapling and turning this blower on and off, and banging stuff around as i move it, and sawing....its probably 10pm and i hear my upstairs neighbor walking around. now hes cool, and would probably not...

next was to mount the intake vent, i had to break the one i had purchased into smaller pieces since my mounting wall thinggy was now much narrower then i had originally anticipated. i then just taped it in place on the inside of the pseudo wall, and filled in any extra areas with mylar.
