ok ok...I'm here in design phase. Here is the plan:
I am charged with building a permitted dispensary grow here in the Golden State. I have two or three months to design it and I'd love it if anyone with educated opinions can chime in with help and advice.
I will return the favor with pics and notes when the build-out happens. The plan is to build one flower room and one veg room and run it for a couple cycles before starting up the second flower room on a flip flop.
This grow is a real not-for-profit meant to benefit patients. Any farmers with comments and questions, drop 'em.
So...pictures = 1000 words (none of the walls are built yet--the space is wide open and up for anything)
btw: I know there are a million details here and a million questions. My ceilings are 14'6" but there are 2' trusses up there. My idea was to have a loft for indoor a/c boxes but I have to talk to my HVAC guy about that. The initial sketch had me venting (5) 3 ton units with a 16" FKD 4600 cfm fan and a passive intake--and that's just for the flower room. The veg room specs (9) 1000w lights with (2) 2.5 ton units. I just can't put the boxes outside. hmmm. The loft upstairs will be used for the A/Cs, storage and a trim/dry room, so my first question is...
1.) Who votes for 8'0 ceilings and who votes for 9'0? My 3d sketch uses 9'0 ceilings but that obviously cuts down on the the loft height. I want to pull 2lb avg plants from the set-up--can I do it fine with 8'0?
2.) The A/C issue is the stickler. I need a good 150k in btu's in each flower room. I had the idea of putting (3) 3 tons in each room and sharing air with intake/exhaust fans but there are drawbacks (C02, night temp control...). Then there's the Excel A/C Dampers which I've never used. I'm not crazy about having (10) total 3 ton units for 2 flower rooms (not counting the 2 units for the veg rooms). Ideas?
ok. Have at it farmers. I will post my initial equipment choices here soon. Everything is up for debate--let's design the best possible room together!
In the meantime...where do you find those pretty blue and red hoses for running the hot and cold chiller water?
Oh--Happy Thanksgiving!!!:smiley_joint:
