I used the 20 gallon brutes in the past, uniseals do not work well on round surfaces, bulk heads are a pain in the ass, you cant easily break down the system for cleaning.
I have found the Walmart 18 and 30 gallon totes to work great. plus they are shorter and wider which is in theory helps the plant grow wider. and at 5 and 8 bucks a pop. The 27 gallon black totes form lowes probably work better but my po dunk town doesent have a HD or Lowes.

So, the water cooled co2 burners for $300 are nothing more than a portable hot water heater for camping. Slap a Hydro-Gen sticker and triple the price. I got mine on ebay for $120 shipped. Use a 2 stage regulator and it works great so far.

Calm down bro why you acting like getto's bodygaurd lol...I overlooked a couple things he said, like how he moved them in from the van, and he hit 2.4 last run. I was saying that based on the way it looked in the pics and what you said, "2 weeks veg, 6 weeks bloom" so I really do not want to argue with anybody, based on the current facts I think he will be able to hit 3+, so lets relax and smoke a bowl :D
sorry about that i was drinking hateraide that day:cool:

can you elaborate on that? do you need to make any modifications? can you explain how it works in this manor?

Does the light penetrate through the pvc in your opinion?
I read once where somebody recommended sliding 4" flexible ducting over the pvc.
Maybe reflectix wrapped around it?
They look good, awesome work.

41k btu works exactly as the hydro gen model, But is battery opperated. I have a ac dc transformer if the batteries wear out too quickly, it is easily hard wired in

HOLY SHIT GG those chicks are gonna be big and are stacked just right.

The light penetrates 4" PVC 100%. I wrapped mine in reflectix. it's easy to do. 16" strips. seal with aluminum tape.

Thanks,
I have a bunch of reflectix left, I have been meaning to cover the pipes. Im not sure about the light but my other rooms are bare with no problems. I guess I can cap a piece of pipe and drill a small peep hole to see if light penetrates it.

See my post above.

16" will wrap the pipe perfect. you just need some tape. The pipe is not light proof. Even thick pvc, not the home depot shit. Plus wrapping it will kepp it insulated.

@gettogro (or anybody that knows the answer) How do you clean a system that big?? Do you take everything apart after each run and scrub it or do you leave it intact and just run some h2o2 through it??
