Doing Ebb n Flow tables with 3200/3800watts over each row, 3 rows and also filling in the aisles with 2x3 tables with ressies on hand made carts with casters to move em out of the way
Rocking a 12inch max fan @1800cfm and a 8inch @ 785cfm for exhaust for flower room/16x16 room, 8inch for the veg room/8x16
2-36,000btu Fujitsu Mini split AC to cool flower room
1-5k window unit for the veg room
few carbon filters for good luck, lol and a 8inch ozone gen for hope!
running 3-3x3 tables, 2-2x2 tables, 8x4 table, 4x4 table, 2-6x3 tables and a 2x3 table to max out on my available space given
have 2-1ks and 2-600s for each row right now but probably guna run another 600 or 1k per row.....right now im at about 56 watts per sqft, which is ok but not great, also going VERTICAL bulbs which is the norm for me
built this pole barn myself with 2 buddies 50x30x10, bought off the net for $8,200, already had the property in place
Made one big sealed room, went with 2inch insulation foam board, caulked and taped off all seams, built the walls with 2ft on center studs then r-19 sound insulation, then 6mil black plastic on both sides of studs, then 1inch foam board insulation...taped and sealed, then 5x8 plywood on both sides of walls, then panda plastic for the final covering, did the same with the ceilings....ended up with a total R value of around r-30+
So far so good with the temps....never above 78 and never below 68
I also did a main "lung" room that's 16x24 with the same building materials/scheme...workin like a boss!
sweet. i'm just now getting into ebb and flow myself. are you leaving your flood trays empty? what's your flood schedule? i like the idea of little to no medium in the trays with a lid to keep algae down.

I go with 5inch net pots, the ones that are open in the first 2inches and the rest solid, helps keep out the light better for the stalk and higher roots......then I pull a piece of panda film over the top and slice an X, then drop the netpot in and pull up the cut section to cover it all, makes it about 95% lightproof, I get zero algae
got round 2/row going tomorrow, 4x8 table and a 4x4 with 64 girls....Dabney Blue, White Rhino, Pre98 Bubba Kush, LA Confidential...only 6400watts going right now, 3200 more in a few weeks
thanks everyone, its been ALOT of work...started in late may and here we are today
that 1 bucket is a DWC for a new momma....I try to get em nice and bushy, then toss em in some soil for the long haul....my other moms are about 7 feet tall now and its time to go go!
Im still trying to figure out the air exchange situation, seems im pulling way too hard and taking out to much of the cooler air too fast, making temps a lil hotter than id like....any ideas?
Im pulling with a 12inch 1800cfm fan, I already tried to put it on a speed controller and it over heated the unit and shut it down at about medium-high, sooo that's kinda out....im thinking maybe now I have to close up some of the intake hole, also was guna put another 8inch filter on the line with the other one and try to slow it down a lil bit..
rocking a 36,000btu fujitsu mini split now, I know im going to have to add something more tho
im a noob to a BIG room, been growing for 9 years now but was in a 10x11 for years with 4400watts, this is a lil bit new to me and finding that swet spot is a pain
