Vince. I have been using mostly just the base coco nutes to this point. I used a small amount of algen extract during the initial grow phase. And I used the roots excelurator for the first couple of weeks. I do have the bud XL, top booster and shooting powder though. All of which I intend on using as directed, when the time comes.

STFU - Most of the inside of the walls was covered in 1/8 masonite before being covered with the black/white plastic. The decision was made due to cost, and also to keep it modular. The whole thing could be borken down into 18 separate 8'x74" sections and theoretically moved and setup somewhere else. Truthfully though, I wish I had of gone with sheetrock and actually taped all the corners and joints, just to keep it a little more sealed. Though the entire outside of the shell is covered in 6 mil vapor barrier, then insulation, then masonite, then 1 solid piece of black/white. So it is pretty sealed up as far as I can tell. There doesn't sppear to be anywhere from the exterior that is sucking air into the room due to neagative pressure.

Zen - Not a fan of aircooled hoods. They take to many lumens away that I would rather give to my plants and deal wit the heat in other ways.

Really nice setup. It would be so nice to be able to build out multiple rooms like you have.

Awesome set up man! I laughed off the first comments ripping on the equipment as well, they probably haven't a run a room on flip flop like yours. I'm new at this and haven't played around with a lung room but I have two side by side 4k rooms on flip flop that I recently got going and by cycling the air between the two to keep the temps down in flower my acs don't get pushed hard at all and as an added benefit you have less temperature variance from night to day. I actually unplugged a $200 70 pint dehuey in one room because its not even necessary, but I think you should probably get 4k worth of santa fes.. hah, I think dubble ds or another coveted grower used and recommended santa fe and now its the only commercial unit worth anything.

I would however like to see what got upgraded for the 8k rooms though and see the second run in full bloom!

I've run a flip-flop or two...

Still didn't answer my question on whether all of the lights were ever turned on, or if it wasn't possible due to heat/humidity issues.

How long did those plants flower for? Call me a hater, but most of the buds pictured looks immature.
 
He's already addressed that this was being run bare bones and things would change for the additional lighting being put in.

Your a hater, hah. =P

I don't think all those pics were taken on the same day, since this is the first update in a while. Some of them are immature and I'm sure they weren't cut down that day. Look at the top two pics of the trimmed buds, they definitely don't look immature, but they also probably aren't the most flattering pics either.
 
why cant i see these pics its just a little box i can see every other pic on this site i really want to check this room out lol sucks
