Hey all, Alot of people have been asking for this thread, but try to keep it as hypothetical as possible. Before I start,I advise all to thoroughly think out what you are about to do. If you decide that this is the path you wish to follow, start by getting a execercise book, calander, calculator and a nice big bowl. Write down the measurements of any rooms you wish to use. Where all windows, vents, points and obstructions are. Also find out what power you have to use. This is checked at the main power box. The normal power for residential is 55-125 amp(1 amp = 240 watts) This is then divided between the different circuits on the board (lights,power,aircon,…

Ok, here it is. I figured I wouldn't need any odour control in the mother room. (Plants don't give off smell during veg do they?) And a couple of flouros would be enough to keep them healthy. Hope to be able to keep up to 4 mothers. I've got filters/odour control for the upper chamber as I plan to use this as a drying room. Aside from this I will have two 400x900x1800 flowering chambers. One for sativas and one for indicas, each run on a 250W HPS and will have odour control. Everything will be on a drip to waste hydro as before. I don't think I'll bother with the cheapo aero, I'll just root my clones in the hydro medium (unless anyone thinks this is a bad id…

sorry guys, I still can't work out how to upload a picture. So I put it up at yahoo, here's the link. growbox The dimensions are approximate, as it is to fit inside a standard 2 door wardrobe. I plan to run a drip to waste hydro system similar to Tom's. The plan is to keep 3 or 4 different mothers and alternate crops. The yield is expected to be at least 2 ounces every 2 months or so, with any luck more. Is this a reasonable expectation? The priorities of this setup are in order of importance: 1. Decent to high quality bud for personal use 2. Not have to continually get seeds/clones from an outside source. 3. Yield (min 12ounces per year) 4. Simplicity/minim…

HA!!! Just wanted to have the first post.....any way used to have a grow room, when I do it again it will be a bog variety grown in 3 gallon pots filled with grow rocks or somthin similar (so I can reuse the grow material) in a ebb and flow tub or small kiddie pool, it'll have a run to waste watering system with a huge resiviour, the room will have to have a sink or some kind of plumbing for the run to waste and to make it easier to fill the resivour and I have found that car radiators work well with a fan blowing thru them during hot days as long as the tap water is cold enough combined with an effiecient ventalation system, + I like the those gavita bulbs and I'm into t…
