I am in the process of setting up my first UC run. *applause*
The set will be 28 site 13 gallon, 28" centers. I am planning on a shorter veg, (4 weeks) then flip, as the plants will be closer together.
I have done research and searched forums although I am not sure yet on how I am to place my res , top off res , chiller etc.
I have a 955L (252US Gal) res. that will be getting fed RO water on demand via float valve.
I am not sure how to setup/plumb the top off. res... Should I use the 955L as a holding for RO water, get a 100 gallon for the top off?
The system max I believe would be 28 x 13 gallons + epicenter + volume in pipes = about 400 gallons?
To my understanding I will want to run each site at about 9.75 gallons. So the entire system would be about 275 gallons.
I have a 1000L holding tank of RO water, but not sure if I use that as the top off, or I plumb it to another smaller res, via float valve.
I could use a 50 gallon barrel as a top off res and just fill that with RO water when it requires. Although, I am not sure how I would balance the nutrients back to where they should be.
