What up @DO IT completely agree with the cana coco not being the best out there, I switched to Sanctuary soil big city hydro mix,
best drainage ive ever come across. 3 different types and cuts of coco core/laa rock/red wood bark/perlite. I still put an inch of #4 chunky perlite down in the bottoms of geo pots or beds. Google there name and check it out.

Hey noob question :) when you set up your room the ballasts are all on the outside, how do run all the chords in and still keep the room sealed for co2?

Pulling up a chair. If you decide to run DE bulbs you can nix the power box and get the gavita el2 controller. You will love it. And you should try the nutrifield 70/30 mix sometime. I just filled a few beds with it and the drainage is killer, plus you don't have to waster time mixing shit up.

I'm running basement mix right now so I don't have to mix n e thing. I used to run the nutri when it first came out. I also buy a container at a time so I get a good deal from royal gold on the basement mix.

damn that is a sweet room! Are you running a drain to waste setup? or is that recirculating? The pvc in the well at the right of the pic is for pumping stuff out? I just came into a space that is 27 by 13.5 with another 14x11 attatched in an L shaped setup and trying to figure how to set it up, how many lights i can comfortably fit and how many plants to do per light, so thanks for the pics :) also what are the open vents for and how do you do that with co2?

All the PVC is for feeding and draining that is a 300gal catch tank in the room and I run a 500gal rezi outside of the room

I run 60 day +/- strains. I start the off in a veg room for 30 days then transfer to a flower room. I then put another set of babies into the veg room. At 30 days I put them into my second flower room and throw another set of babies in the veg room. I now have a flower room with 30 days till harvest a flower room with 60 days till harvest and a veg room with 30 days till they are ready to me transfered. This way I chop every 30 days which spreads the load.

Awesome setup. Very impressive and clean.
How do you handle the humidity at the dark hours? I don't see any dehumidifiers.
Is the air handler somehow doing that for you?
