Hello All.

This was originally posted on CW long ago.. I took ideas from Tick and NGB to develop a nice combo.. Heres the stats.

over cab size: 2'x4'x6.5'
flower room: 2'x4'x4'
400w HPS air cooled. 50wpsf
mother/clone room: 1.5'x4'x2.5'
240w Fluoro ambient cooled. 40wpsf
Forced air brought in through pvc on back. through flower room. into mother room. through the fluro bulbs (cooling them) and out through the squirrel cage fan(250+cfm). 400w HPS air cooled by 2 inline duct fans.

The perpetual harvest involved 32 plants in flower at all times. Every week 4 clones would be taken from various mothers, the 4 clones taken the week before should be rooted and transplanted into 6" square pots. The pots that had been transplanted the week before would be placed into the flower room. And so on and so forth, 4 in a week, 4 out a week, 8 week cycle.

The strains in the pictures are mostly Dutch Passion Power Plant.. but a few Aussie Bush, Swt#3,C99 and other might be seen in the back. Heres some pics...

The utility room: 0.5'x4'x2.5'

This room housed all the ballasts, the 400w HPS and the 3 Fluoro Ballasts. All ballasts were mounted on stacks of washers, elevating them away from the wood. The utility room was cooled by a pair of 120mm pc fans. The squirrel cage fan is also housed in the utility room and sucks from the mother room and blows out the back. I used a mix of warm and cool bulbs in the fluoro room. Heres some more pics.

Heres some pics of the flower room after a good mylar session( and one of the fluoro room ). I also added switches to turn off the HPS or to turn off the entire box.

*edit* I will post more tomorrow.. I can only post so much says the forums..
