Grow Mediums Come one come all First grow and coco grow mephisto sour crack

Loved watching your grow @Mr. Sandman! I was really impressed with your irrigation system. Is there any chance you could post some more pics of it? Do you have a list of components purchased or a sketch of your design etc.? I’m asking a lot here,
 
Thank you I can take more pics and get a parts list made up for you not a problem at all. The pvc was ran in 3/4 sch 80 there is a union below my lid on my res because the pvc goes through the top of the lid so to remove the lid had to put a union below it. There is also a union ball valve combo ball valve with union on each end I have that right on the outside of my tent for quick removal. the res is a 30 gal blue rain barrel ordered off uline. The pvc and fittings are from Menards I'll get how many 90s and everything I had to use and get the rest posted in a parts list form for you thanks for following along. I got the last 3 ladies coming off this weekend so will have more pics and everything then

@Stinky_Jones here are some pics of the res and going into the tent just got the last of the girls out today so will get pics of the inside this morning after work. But a parts list I used is this I used a couple extra things I did not end up needing so I will leave those out but you might see it in the photos.
2- 10ft sticks sch 80 3/4 pvc (adjust per distance you wanna run)
2- active aqua 400gph pumps one for circulation the other for feed hose barbs come with pumps.
2in piece of 3/4 air hose
1- 3/4 hose barb to pvc connection. (This is not the ones with the pumps this will have to be bought separate to connect the pump to the pvc system)
4-90 degree sch 80 elbows
4-t fitting sch 80 pvc
1-sch 80 3/4 ball valve (this was for the extra part I have off the side for filling jugs if I want)
1-union ball valve has union connection on both ends of a ball valve these are very nice.
1-3/4 sch 80 cap for plugging off the end of pvc.
3- pieces of threaded pvc (I used threaded pvc for the 3 t fittings I have inside my tent for easy removal if desired but can use regular pvc style fitting as well)
3-threaded t fittings
6-reducers from 3/4 to 1/4
6 brass reducers from 1/4 to 3/16 hose barb
black 1/4 hose from hydro shop is what I used from and made my own drip rings with plastic t fittings from Walmart poked holes all through bottom side of hose with heated safety pin. Any other questions feel free to ask I'll get the pics of the inside pvc this morning

@Mr. Sandman, you Sir, are an absolute gentleman. Thank you so much for taking the time out to list everything in such great detail and including pictures. It’s very inspiring! In just 4 weeks I’ll be back home and ready to get my DIY on. Let’s see if I can come up with something half as good!

Thank you so very much!
 
Also forgot 6 brass 1/4 pipe nips and 6 brass 1/4 in ball valves so I could control flow to each one separately. But not a problem always glad to help Goodluck with your setup if you ever have questions feel free to ask I'm new to everything but will share what I know or have learned thus far. And thanks for the rep delta and for following along I enjoy the dyi portions it definitely was nice having little projects to do in my spare time. Had a lot of fun with this grow can't wait to get started on my next one.

Any final numbers yet? Just curious as I’ll be starting a small sour crack grow myself.

Nice. I can't help but tinker with things when the gardenly duties are done myself. Always trying to improve things. Want to redu my cob fixture and button it up with another cob led, sst junction box, and those khatod Si lenses would be dope.
