Hey People,
Well after some aches and pains I have finally completed my ideal flowering room
I did like my twin magnum xxxl room but having lights side by side and routing the duct was chaos and I had no room to move, but I knew I needed 2000 watts to acheive maximum yeild
I have now set up 2 blockbuster 1000 watt air cooled shades inline which means shorter duct lengths and better extraction through the shades.
I have also made the room out of soundbloc plaster board then used green glue then another sheet of soundbloc 12.5mm, if anybody on here knows about plasterboard you will know this stuff weighs a ton, but used with green glue has great sound proofing qualities But due to the weight the door into the room had to be made smaller, so its only 4' high by 3' wide. I will be disguising it all as a walled in room so nobody will ever know it was there
Having a smaller door though means that its next to impossible to take decent pics as the canopy is higher than the top of the door as I have a raised floor in the room, but here are some pics to the best of my ability so far and specs as follows:
Strains:
Chem Vally Kush, Noname, Oltimes bx, Blues, Jack Flash, God Bud, Skywalker, C99 and Psychosis.
Plant stage picture taken:
Week 5 of flowering.
Growing Medium and Pot Size:
Coco Professional plus
19 x 3.5 litre square pots.
Nutrients and Additives:
GHE 3 part nutes.(10mm per 10 litres of each)
Canadian Xpress Superior Potash
Canadian Xpress Headmasta.
Canadian Xpress Root-regen.
Fed to plants via two topspin 12 site dripper systems.
Nutrient mix kept in a compact 110 litre thermally insulated water butt with temps kept at 21 degrees celcius.(tri-meter e.c, ph and temperature monitor)
PH kept at 6.0
EC between 1.8 and 1.9
Lighting:
2 x Blockbuster Air cooled shades 1000 watt bulb in each.
80 lumens per square foot.
Environment:
1 x 200mm Etaline fan (from outside air feed through lights and outside. (Can be left running with co2 without extracting any air from the room)
1 x 200mm Etaline fan 200mm Rhino filter. (can be turned on and off on a timer with co2)
Both 200mm fans extract hot air into the outer room using silencers mounted on the grow room roof to deaden wooshing sound.
1 x 150mm RVK L1 intake (on 24 hours)
1x 125mm TD Silent fan with 125mm Rhino carbon filter (on 24 hours )
SMSCOM Twin fan speed controller for carbon filter and intake.(sensor at canopy level)
Tower fan mounted on its side on adjustable hangers blowing air across top of canopy beneath shades.
All the ducting in my room is "combi duct" 150 / 200mm as its foil lined and rubberized outer absolutely leak proof and very flexible, cannot recommend highly enough, but sold on ebay only as have searched all over for it? seller is called ventilationcentre, and its about £16 IIRC? 6 meter lengths 150mm. Ps do not work for are are employed etc or even on commission from the above seller I just want to help fellow growers and have had a few pm's asking where you get it
Temps and Humidity:
25 degrees celcius lights on.
20 degrees celcius lights off.
Humidity 40% RH
Data logger set to monitor humidity, due point and temps every minute for 7 days then formatted on a graph on pc.
Room Size and spec:
5'2" x 5'2" x 2 meters high 100% sealed room with negative pressure.(sealed for when I start using co2)
Thermal bubble wrap lined walls and floor with diamond mylar over walls.
5'2" by 41" wide custom gel coated fibreglass lined sink with drainage to outside.
Accustic sound proofed ceiling and front walls using double soundbloc p/board 12.5mm with green glue in between.
Thanks for looking
