That left over is the excess from the vapor covering the underneth which was caulked around the holes like med-man method. I can pop the lid an take a pic of the inside. No wood is exposed inside the table. I figured the top was going to be covered with panda so as long as the excess was not in the way would be no big deal. My next post will show the panda.

I am having issues with the cups they don't want to stay down an are popping up. The next room I think a 5" hole would work better. As some of the net holes are showing with the 4.75 hole.

Tomorrow I'll be running 24 hour of h2o2 an shooting for Saturday planting.

hi bayarea

ya, every manufacturer has differing tapers and specs.

try a 5 inch hole saw for your set up

This being a new room. I'm currently trying to dial in the environment just a little before the girls go in. These are 400 gal water cooled room/rooms. 73% rh at 89 deg F. that was with one light on last night. So i finished the 1hp chiller install. An put 4 lights at 50% I'm hoping for tomorrow but I think that is wishful thinking. I might have to install one or 2 more ice boxes. Or another 2hp chiller. I have 2 in the room now an was getting ready to put one on the lights with a small fan. That will help I'm sure.


Looks like I'll put a few of my Karen's kush as the rooted the other day. An a few of the Tahoe also.

So mostly blue cheese an a few Karen's an Tahoe.

Pics when they go in.

hey bay area

i, nor anyone else have ever had to use rez chillers for the rez's. its one of the benefits of system. they will just create heat in your room, or whatever room they are in, and use energy.

will be intersting to see how you do with them.

if you cant keep temps in between 75-85 then i wouldnt run the table untio you get large enough a/c's to handle your lights

i cant stress how important it is to have everything under control with the tables. they are a breeze to use a slong as everything is digtally controlled: co2, temps, rh%, lighting etc. it still is hydroponic growing, easy or not.

hi bayarea

i have seen so many people set up untested grows and lose everything, so silly :)

i am not going to say thins like you didnt know it, but its better to do something right and slow from the onset, then rush a good thing and lose it all :)

good choise. i always use biiger a/c's, dehu's and co2 burners for my rooms. not becuase i am big and tough, but becuase under any circumstance i need everything running at optimal, day or shine, winter or summer :)

looking forward to the future here

Yea I'm def not gonna put things in until the environment is correct.

I might have to duct the lights in/out of the room. Which I probably should be doing while I wait for the mini split. Which I guess I'll have to put one in each room an duct the lights in/out of each room. Now I wish I went this route to begin with.

Looks good, nice progress!

Be careful with that Blue Cheese, cropped that twice back in the day......was NEVER happy with it, Got my cut from "Blue Sky" in Oakland if I remember the place correctly.

I've had a friend grow this out 7 or 8 times. I don't like it myself but it was the only clones I could get my hands on. As my moms weren't big enough to clone. But next run is looking good for some kushes.

I'm testing the environment tonight without the mini split an just running air thru the lights in an out of the room. If it stays below 80 I'm going to put them in tomorrow. It should be ok as my other mom room is doing this an staying at 74 degrees. But we shall see. The blue cheese is over ready to go in. So stoked to see this jump off.

hey bay area

every seen a cleaner more illuminated room? white out lol

looks dope man

i find with salad grws a 1.0 ec start is great. then add .1 extra for every following week until you hit 1.8, then reverse till flush :)

i also would like to mention that 2days of shock flushing can be started once you kick the room into bloom phase with 36 hours dark period. i day a week flush in veg is all thats needwed with the lower ec :)

stoked to see you rocking amigo

The nute monitor I have is a bluelab an can do Ec an ppm the other nute monitors for the other two room can only do ppm. So just going to do all in ppm. Vegging at 700 ppm

I do need to change out 3 plants. An I might put my bigger pump in.

hi bay area

from now on when i give advice, i am going to act like you dont know oaky? iunstead of always sayinf "if you didnt know" every post. i dont want to seem like you dont know. i will just act it k?

since i first started sealed rooms in 2003 (one of the first in bc btw) i noticed in these set ups, and even open aired rooms with in and out, it is always superior to have bigger everything. feed pumps, co2 gennies, a/c's , dehu's etc. for the reason that better have them run and turn off connected to digital readers then have them on all the time, ga a half ass job or worse - fail

i always use bigger feed pumps too, and use a ball valve to dial them up or down as needed :) (fwiw)

Yea it's better to assume I don't know. As more than likly I have no clue.

I thought the pump I got was going to be big enough but I'm not so sure. This am I'll see if I can switch it out. I do have the other one ready to go in.

you get 100% somplete control with larger machines, becuase they can always be dialed down, not so much with equal o r lesser ones :)

Yea I did change out the pump. An it's way better.

I switched out 4 plants. Some roots on others are a inch long an stretching for the bottom of the table.

Ok so I have been battling Fungus gnats in my moms coco. Which is the same room that held my clones. Which are in rockwool. I did notice a few gnats in the flower room tha must have hitchhiked into the room. Are they going to set up shop in the rockwool an hydroton rocks an have more? Or in the root zone? I can't seam to be ride of them.

Full co2 bottle did nothing to kill the left overs. Might have stunned the girls as i havent seen much growth. I moved the ppm up to 900. I saw 3 gnats an killed them an put a few sticky traps to catch any others. Monday ill Finnish the mini split an then full lights Can go on.

DUDE! sick ass rooms! Respect on the work - that shit aint easy - respect man.

Nice genetics Med-Man - will be a pleasure to watch them pampered by bayarea.

:good:

Mind if I pull up a chair? I got more weed than I can smoke :biggrin:

I also want to become automated with a res and such - and you are using rockwool - something I want to revert back too - so clean and simple.

Whens the best time of year to buy an A/C to upgrade the garden?

hey bayarea

gnats are a bitch

try to get the safers vapor strips, and the yellow sticky strips.

its hard to get rid of them all, but you can control populations

they could be root aphids - oooooooooooeeeeeeeewwwww lol
