Virgin Grower

Well, first off I am brand new to the grow scene. I've always wanted to grow my own vegtables and greens so I thought I would give it a try. I started doing a lot of research on indoor gardens and deceided to create an indoor drip irrigation system. I started with:

1 low rubbermaid storage container (This is what the plants are actually sitting in)

1 Rubbermaid storage container(resevior)

1 Water pump 175GPH

1/2 Tubing

Water proof silicon

1 10 nozzle drip manifold

Drip Lines with pressurized drippers

Pebbles for proper drainage

In The Resivor there is the water pump wich pumps the water up to the manifold, the manifold feeds the drip lines which feed the plants. After the water drains from the plant it drains through the two drain tubes cut into the clear tray and back into resivor.

Lighting:

Two Flouresent shop light fixtures($9 from wali-world) Each holds 2 32watt bulbs

I'm using two warm and two cool white roughly 12,000 lumens also using 16/8 lighting schedule

I'm using Fox Farm nutes.

I also am using a diy co2 generator shown in pic.(yeast & sugar)

The temp of the room in the day stays in the range from 80-84 and at night falls to about 78

I water the plants once a day as soon as the lights come on in the morning

Basically what I am doing is making sure I can grow these veggies without killing them before I grow some greens.

If anyone has any comments/suggestions please voice them.
