Hi, i just about got my room squared away, let me know what you think or what i should change.
MOTHER/CLONE:
Inter Metro shelving
Rainforest 36
Sunlight Supply 5xT5 x 48"
Simple set up. shelving holds the lights and rainforest. Mother is also stored here.
FLOWERING:
equipment:
Seceret Jardin 5x5x7-6 tent.
Tent is ok, i give it a 4/5 rating. The tent has tons of pin holes, and you can actually see the glow of 1200w of lights
through it. Funcion is great, love the location of the zippers and vents. The larger tents are a PITA to set up alone.
2x600 HPS on lumetek digital ballast
hydrofarm daystar AC's
GH Rainforest 66
Climate Control:
can fan 8ho on can 66 carbon filter. Set up as recirc inside the tent.
can fan 6ho running both hoods. Fan is outsided the tent and exausts thought the lights and out the tent.
botteled co2
green air products PPM-1 co2 controller.(set at 1200-1500 depending on the stage of growth)
Control equipment:
Litermeter III dosing system.
auto exchanges resivor solution at 2/ gallon per day. It takes a flow rate of fluid and divides
that quantity by 160 to give a specific dose over a 24 hour period. I have it set to take 2 gallons out and put two gallons
in for a 24 hour period. SPECTRAPURE LITERMETER III
Aquamedic Dosing pumps.
These dosing pumps run on my main system controller to keep the ph at 6. one pumps ph up and one pumps ph down depending on need.
Neptune Systems Aquacontroller III.
This is the brain of my system. It controls the lights, heat, ph, fans etc. You use simple IF and THEN commands to tweak the system
to your needs. You assign channes lables (like PM2 is the light fan, LT1 is light one, etc) and tell it what socket on the strip to
turn off or on. ITs also set up as fail safes if the temp rises within certain parameters.
Here is an example of my programing, if anyone here uses the same sytem please let me know how you have it set up.
Neptune Systems - AquaControllers - Products.
If Time > 21:00 Then LT1 ON
If Time > 06:00 Then LT1 OFF
If Time > 21:00 Then CO2 ON
If Time > 15:00 Then CO2 OFF
If Time > 21:00 Then PM1 ON
If Time > 15:00 Then PM1 OFF
If Time > 06:00 Then LT2 ON
If Time > 15:00 Then LT2 OFF
If Temp > 91.9 Then LT1 OFF
If Temp > 93.0 Then LT2 OFF
Max Change 030 M Then LT1 OFF
If Temp > 60.0 Then PM2 ON
If Temp < 75.0 Then HET ON
If Temp > 78.0 Then HET OFF
Max Change 030 M Then HET OFF
I come from a reef aquarium background and found that alot of the same type of equipemnt can be usefull for both hobbies.
i am a new MM patient here in colorado and enjoy the high tech aspect of growing, weither its coral or pot. Currently, my system is running great. My temps stay at 87* in the day and 72* at night. The co2 is maintained perfectly with the system currently set up. (no airconditioning, no tent ventelation either. )
All that said, this is my first setup in about 5 years. ITs all new and untried. I hope to have good success with everything, i will keep you posted. If there is something you want to see let me know and i will shoot it.
Please let me know what you would change or add to this system.
Thanks for looking.
