We have just finished the veg (roughly 4 weeks after a week of shock) and have now flipped to flower. So here is the specs and photos (more to come... hopefully weekly) to our first Aero grow.

Fans: 8inch fan pulling through 4ft carbon filter and 1 small fan blowing in grow room
Other Gear: 40gal rez , 1600 gal/hr pump , Tri-Meter , Cycle Timer , (2) Airstones

Additional Comments:
So far we have had ZERO problems with the Aero grow and have seen amazing results. Big thing that helped was preparing the plants properly to enter the tubes by keeping them completly soil-less and by producing a veg tub with a sprayer system that allowed clones
to veg once rooted and then for them to get adapted and familiar to the new type of enviornment we are about to introduce them to helping eleminate a load of problems. Major reason though for success is... Keeping Control of the Enviornment!!!
Side Notes: All Mazars are between 20 - 23 inches tall before flower with the largest Bubba Kush around 16 inches but very stalky and bushy. First Bubba Kush had some larger shock in the start because it fell into the tube but has rebounded very nice.
