Well I decided to re-build my room and add a few things. Some of the changes are;

EPDM on the floor
Co2
Cool Tubes
8K lights
8 bucket UnderCurrent system
my jumbo 9 site DIY UnderCurrent system.system, in a week it will be up

Got started 4 days ago and plants are in the one system last night. Here are the pics.

Subed for this. Love me some DWC with undercurrent

Where did you get that floor mat? Looks awesome

UnderCurrentDWC · Nov 10, 2011

Nice man!
Can't wait till your back up and running.
Will you be doing 2 systems in that room? Looks like you have a lot of extra room in there.

It's pond liner made by Firestone, Just like 18 wheeler inner tubes. It's not cheap but it is good insurance when you have 390 gallons of water get lose on you.

How long do you even veg something like that, I'm assuming the 30g barrels are for root room? Right? 12ft plants?

woodsmaneh! · Nov 10, 2011

Root room is correct, I only use the top 3 to 4 feet of the plant, that's about all you can get with a 1000w

Destillat · Nov 11, 2011

Definitely cool. I have to ask, how do you get a decent light spread under the 12 gallon containers without putting a light under every 1-2 plants? I have 4 mothers in 5 gallon pots and they take up an entire light

A 1000w is good for 4x4x4 so 4 feet wide by 4 feet long and 4 feet high so each plant gets 1/2 a 1000w over it.

Holy piss that's overkill! >:O

Are those mothers or full grown plants that you plan on flowering, why not outdoor if you want such beasts?

I don't see it as overkill.
I have to abide by x number of plants in flower & veg with my Ca scrip, since I'm limited to #'s I'm going to grow them as big as possible, while some are flowering for 2 months others are veging for 2 months, a long veg makes for big plants, lots of light makes for lots of bud. It's not unheard of to have a monster under a 1000w produce over two lbs.

Yea but the question asked was why not outdoor? Not how much does it yield. I'm sure they yield plenty. As for numbers, well 99 is the hardcap for federal... And the state cap is around 24 per patient in my area. I don't really think there is a need for that much, if I was large scale I wouldn't even do 1000W systems, I would do 600s all around. If I really wanted tree's like that, I'd grow outdoors. Just my opinion though.

This is something I'm interested in as to I have a decent size space to work with 11.5 wide X 17.5 long X 8.5 high I just don't know enough on the UNDERCURRENT DWC but I can build just about anything if i have the info thanks again for any help and just a sick set up you have there hats off to ya !

woodsmaneh! · Nov 12, 2011

My room is 12.5 x 13.6 and 9.5 feet high = 169 sq feet = 1605.5 cubic feet

The guys over at H2o have sizing charts on their site http://cch2o.com/

I will have my xl8 13 gal system and my DIY Jumbo 9 barrel 30 gal in there, should have pics of the jumbo in a couple days.
