Hey OG, thanks bro, I try to keep a really clean room, I can't stand cords or anything in the way n stuff, I have hooks in the walls for everything...lol
Ballasts and timer in a separate room, and learned a long time ago not to have anything that could be damaged by water anywhere near the ground!
If you saw the closet setup I first installed with my first light I ever bought around 14 years ago, you'd laugh your ass off! Just didn't have the money to do it right and after that I invested everything and continually kept investing til I had dialed my first true room. Since then it's easy as pie to set up a room that is dialed on first run almost but You can't cut any corners, imo And there is no substitution for killer air flow, I always have my room able to be fully exhausted in about a minute, and then just dial it down if needs be. But overall, I run a simple room, no massive climate controller, no CO2, no a/c.
About your question on the beds, They are
Botanicare trays, a 4'x4' + 4'x8' inline with Hugo rockwool blocks, ebb & flood. The other side of this room has mirror image tray setup but has coco in containers being fed old school with a res, pump & water wand. Seems I'm always testing something or comparing/contrasting variables in the rooms.
