I really like your setup. It's so neat and orderly!

What's that black thing under your plants?

its a plastic pallet. you know like for forklifts and stuff, just happened to fit perfectly in my tent and keeps everything raised up off the ground. also allows my control bucket outside to sit just a little lower on the concrete so the pump is lower than all the other buckets kind of like a sump.

Those are lookin nice. You rock the plastic containers and then transplant to the big fabric pot last?

So I rode the fence pretty hard on that T-5 and went with just one, and kept the HID in there as well. Dude at the hydro shop talked me out of replacing the HID with two T-5's. he said the T-5's won't penetrate the canopy enough once the plants start packing on foliage. I dunno. lol

I woke up to some pretty sad looking plants though. Guess I didn't account for the extra heat/light in the room now and the soil was bone dry. Minor heart attack to start my Sunday. :?

What about freezers tho?

Freezers are as dry as can be. You ever see 'freezer burn'? It will dry a steak to weird grey jerky if not sealed properly. The big issue with the freezer is guaranteed condensation once whatever is frozen gets removed. With beans this translates to ALWAYS let your vault reach room temp before actually opening, or at the very least the pack you removed. I remove packs right inside the freezer I avoid removing the vault if possible. Extra insurance I have rice in the vault to absorb any nasty condensation instantly. It works like this: Air tight at room temp, seeds stay viable for a Max of three years. Air tight in fridge, make it a safe five with half of them making ten years. Freezer can extend seed life 25 years and beyond. Cryogenic storage of seeds have been happening for a few decades, folks reckon we can germinate those a few thousand years from now. Remember, a seed is not alive. It is code. DNA is code for processes. Only thing really needed to activate the code and start the process of iteration is water. Once the process runs it can not be interrupted, interrupting life process equals death. But before the water hits the seed, it is pure code. DNA is a protein sequence. It can remain intact through a journey into space.

And seeing as the beans should be dry, they don't really get frozen unless you are using nitrogen to cool your beer. Not enough water in a seed for it to freeze. The low temps keep them in good nick. Although I suspect it has more to do with constant temperature than how low it gets par se. A freezer has hardly any variation in temps, a fridge can swing quite wide we all know that.

Two tubes? Or two fixtures? I count t5 tubes in eights. My bank is built with four double fittings. So I replaced a 400w MH with 240 watts of t5. Anyhow, StOw, my tablet won't paste the bloody link, so if you are interested do a search here on RIU for the thread 'Double JJ's Big 2015 Outdoor Adventure. Just work back through the last four pages till you see his early veg area. It will show you what DIALLED IN t5 can do. I am getting more. And penetration is better than MH because it is not this single little point of light but more like an avalanche coming from every direction. I would have to veg them beyond what my rig can handle before light becomes an issue. Besides, they dont go tall, just build incredible Bio mass and on top of that most of the lower branches tend to lift to the crown anyhoo. It grows very neat plants.

Two fixtures. I was going to replace one 600 watt HID with two 300 watt T-5 fixtures with 6 bulbs a piece, 12 total.

So now I have one T-5 fixture (6 bulbs, 300 watts) and one 600 watt HID for veg. Probably over kill now that I think of it
