    if youll fill the bottom of that freezer with gallon milk jugs full of water, after they freeze, place a piece of plywood on top of them as a subfloor, them throw your setup back in there, your compressor wont cycle near as often. it will greatly reduce the amount of energy you use to run the...

    3x3 and 4x4 grow tent. HELP!!!!

    I really like the idea for vegging in the 3x3 with the 250 and putting both 400s in the 4x4 flower tent. Watts equal grams so sounds like the best deal. Maybe you can build a 3x3 floor/platform about 18" off the floor and put your t5s under there, you have room for humidity trays and a little...
