Ok folks, made the big chop last night. Had very little time to accomplish this and a set of almost dead batteries in my camera, so photos had to take a back seat. Here are some shots from last night.

Great job Budley, plants look great !!!

Was wondering if you could hook us/me up with more info on your AC setup, need to do somthing like that. Do you have a drain in the back where water comes out?

No Drain, the water recirculates. It is pumped threw the light and dumps back into the rez. Same with the co2 just on a seperate pump or circuit. the heat exchanger is hanging in the rez water cooling it.

Ok here's what I have changed:

hung lamp horizonally with reflector, added second fresca fixture w/600 digital

Instead of fewer large plants I have 18 medium sized. More aggresive prunning and feeding program.

Switched from vertical style as I am still in the experimenting stage and felt bud density was better with the overhead light. I'm 5 weeks into 12 12 now.

Chiller, rez, AC, co2, dehumidifier all the same

I never did get a final. I looked and smoked great. It was a little fluffy or airy. I would guess about 1 lb. Just pulled my last round in the same box. Very dense hard buds this go round . Moving into a new roomier setup this week. May do another journal.

I have one installed, thing is, I was going in with the intention of rewiring everything into my room automation controller. I disconnetced everything, including the flow switch., which normally is wired to a relay. In my automation system it is digitally controlled and had already had the leads moved over. i was working away when i thought, "Damn it's getting cold in here, that hps will warm things up in here and fired it up, I realized about 1 hour later the error of my ways and plugged the pump in. cold water and hot glass and CRACK! Theses are not included in the package and cost upwards to 200. I bought the switch for 80 and wired my own relay. I have seen .5" flow switches on ebay that look much more industrial than the liquid lumens one that I bought although the one I have is very robust.
Hi budley, Amazing grow!! sorry for posting in a 2 year old thread but tough the answer would benefit other people rather then private message. You said you bought your switch from liquid lumens but could wire up one from ebay in the future. Have you any links or information about how this could be done. I think the commercial ones are way over priced but not sure how to wire the ebay ones up since they all seem to be made for attaching to a mother board. Thanks
