1000w Perpetual SOG Closet

Hey again everyone!
Hopefully I can make this show more intriguing than the title... it took quite a while to think-through and I still haven’t got all the kinks worked out. Here’s what I’ve been doing the last two months:


My bonsai mum cab lineup(l to r, back to front) dabney blueberry, og kush apothercary, white Russian, Bubba kush Pre-98, granddaddy purple, blue dream haze


The closet after tearing down last grow:




S&P td-200x(420cfm) for 1000w cooling and td-100x(100 cfm) for 2’x3’x3’ veg room with 144w 6bulb t-5 inside


insulating both S&P’s. Connect ducting, straps, wrap in saran wrap, wrap in insulated ducting.


run insulated from 6" duct and seal.


veg/temp mom/clone room in progress


Td-100x insulated and hung for sealed veg room


Wood to build table stand. All parts for stand = $42


Tray stand built


Light cover mounted on flood tray stand


two 2x4 flood trays in a 53" x 72" space


Irrigation: cap art-dne1, 18gal(approx 15fl gal) reservoir, 2 outlet air pump for res's, flex pvc and return line. I am running pump every hour for 15sec with lights on, once for 15 second on lights off.

1000w c.a.p. nextgen ballast




Here is the 1000w cap nextgen ballast mounted where it SHOULDN’T be, inside the growroom…but I have to sleep in the adjacent room :(


Here is my ducting setup for the 1000w. I have a homemade 8”di 2.5’ long silencer connected to S&P td-200x (not visable, inside black ducting) connected to a Hydrofarm radiant 8”.


This setup makes less noise than my previous setup using 6” duct and a longer 6” silencer. I’ve come to find out the best way to cut down on noise is to insulated and seal every seam and cut down as much as possible on bends/turns in the duct.


two blue dream haze temp moms ready to give another 40 cuts.


bubba kush and gdp temp moms


blue dream haze veg leaf


transplanting 28 blue dream haze clones into 3x3x2.5 cubes


28 girls(26bdh, 1 gdp, 1 bubba) vegging for 1 week


Moving 28 clones to flower


28 babies transplanted in 6” pots




day 1 flower 50% rh, 70°


The odd girls out, gdp(left) and bk(right)


A typical blue dream haze clone (TOO BIG!!)


a couple things I need to fix:
-still waiting on my damn pump sediment filters ordered over 3 weeks ago....
-too much negative pressure(adding bigger intake soon)
-clones look a bit wilted/yellow/flushed/too big/etc...its my first time cloning this many and I was behind schedule a week
and the most pressing...
-other 2x4 table is empty! a perpetual grow has to start somewhere, 28 grandaddy purples to fill table in a month.


This is my first time with almost everything in this closet; perpetual, sogging, tables, cycle times, using 1000w, hydroton, 6” pots so any and all help/construction critism is welcome.
Any questions please ask, I’m a bit tired now but will be residing at this thread for many grows to come …

hey cmoon, thanks for stopping by. What does squeezing the stem do? I've never run sog so unfamiliar with any sog training techniques. I plan on lollypopping the shit out of them...
Doesn't squeeezing/pinching the stem promote side/branch growth?
thanks my friend!

I want my vent ducting to match your cad drawing.

OK, now you have my blood flowing a bit. Maybe you can teach an old dog some of your new kung-fu?

This is going to be killer.

Props brother.

Whew looks like those tables juuust fit into that 53" space, I found out too late that the outside diameter of those nice botanicare "4'" tables is ~53"... too late after building my space Nice and neat setup, very space agey looking with the manifolds and drippers

That is some sweet and sexy ducting insulation fan job porno bet it purrs nice and quiet. Whats your overall opinion of those S&Ps now that you've used em' a bit? It sounds like you also found that a larger diameter duct will allow for moving the same volume of air with less resistance, creating less noise. Do you speed congtrol the fans? It really dosen't seem like 8" duct is overkill for one 1000 reflector from what is going on here...
