little update for you guys, swapped out the large magnum reflectors for the smaller 6" xtrasun reflectors i have ass loads of, i did this for a few reasons. (one) to reduce the weight on the ceiling allowing me to hang a large 6" carbon filter in the tent and do away with the huge box in the corner of the room (two) to reduce heat, the box was sitting close the the intake filter and was getting quite hot, the box was made for a intake scrubber so it was never insulated, now as you can see from the pics it can suck cool 68 degree air from the ac in the room and bring it right in the tent. also insulated all exhaust ducting to minimize on the work the ac has to do, tonight will be the test lights have been on for 2 hours and temps staying at 76 solid so far at this point they would have already been about 83. im thinking 78 max tonight if not i will insulate the duct inside the temp for a couple more degrees

little update with some pics, sat will be my 2 weeks update for veg and flower but just thought i would throw some pics up today. everything looks ok in the flower tent (not allot of growth) the veg tent is looking really good, allot of new growth. im kinda thinking about running the drippers 24/7 but im not sure how they will react, i have them watering every three hours for 30 min as is and they look good just seem to be growing somewhat slow but idk.

i sure hope so lol, the gods i had where naturally slow vegging ladies so im sure these will be the same. i just dont want to over water them which im sure would be hard because the water trickles down the rocks. prably leave them like my pops told me allot growing up "if it aint broke dont fix it" lol.

looking good man. If they drain well why not run 24/7? mimic a nft almost but with a top feed drip.

Constant watering would creat a water logged medium! Nft is based on little to no medium so constand watering or at least
1min on ans 4min off is a must. Also theres too types of root development, in nft with constant water your root will get super
Long and those can grow all the way back to the res lol. In cycle watering or flooding you get a more fine root that has hairs
And each hair is a place for water uptake. Those are the best roots to have
