Hi All,
I have not posted much over the years, I have learned many things here, but have kept a low profile. I used to post years ago as growdawg1. I have sent dozens of folks to these pages to read and learn and have become friends with a couple of regulars grower/breeders here. I am posting now to ask for other opinions to my scenario.
I have a room to build out and have some basic ideas of where I want to go with it, but know that many new things have come about over the last few years and being an oldtimer, some of that has passed me by. So I would like to pose a question to anyone who might like to answer...If you had a chance to build a room such as this, what might you do differently or in addition to the parameters I am working under? They are as follows;
The room is 28' x 14', and there are 2 of them, attached. Concrete floor, no drains, each room has 2 mini splits that are huge. I was planning on using hydro tables, slightly elevated to drain. 4x8 do not seem to lay out well, but I could get 12 3x6 tables in the room with small(18") walkways. Plan is put 24 1000W lights over 12 tables. Is that too much wattage over 3x6 tables?
I know I am losing space with walkways, any suggestions for minimizing that impact?
Planning on using gavita type setup, with the 2 way bulbs, still on the fence and doing research on the lighting. Much respect to all the folks here that have done so much to push this plant forward.
Peace,
