New Grower Fantasy Flower Picks

[HelioCenturion]

Hey, I want to entertain an opportunity to host a virtual game of "Fantasy Flower" Picks.... A dream team collaboration of ideas on your own absolute ideal growing situation... A way to truly express your creativity, and productivity.. your aptitude and efficiency, as well as your experiential knowledge....

So
You have just been given two rooms... one is 20ft X 20ft X 10ft (Main Grow Room) and one is a 20ft X 5ft X 10ft (Clone/ Flower/ ManCave {for male segregation} Room).... and you are about to be given 75 of either (female) Clones/ Feminized Seeds/(female) Autoflower Seeds of your choice ........ Oh and by the way, you were just handed $10,000 ..... CASH.. and the plants'll be here in 1 week
What would you do?

Soil? Aero? Hydro? SCrog? Terraces? AquaPonics?
Quantity? Quality?
Fast Turnover? Slow Roast?
Distribution? Personal Use? Hash? Medibles?

I want you to elucidate your ideal grow situation "from the ground up"
you have unlimited power, and water, and 2 completely climate/ light controlled rooms, and the next 6 months without any particularly "pressing" obligations... but that is ALL you have (save for the clothes on your back)

your ideal schematic for:

Lights? (Veg/Flower)
Grow Medium?
Nutrients Packages?
Tents?
Hydro System?
Cooling?
Heating?
Humidifiers?
De-Humidifiers?
Co2 Canisters?
Co2 Generator?
Meters?
Testers?
Ventilation?

Would you get pre-fabricated materials? or would you make things on your own with raw materials from Hardware/ Electronics Stores?

This could be a fun game, to see who can come up with the best possible scenario with $10K... and worst case scenario, could end up as providing a great template with all of the latest and greatest in innovation, and information, for all users to participate, and aspire to... Ultimately to learn and "Grow" from..

Better get on it..... Plants'll be here soon!!

Yay, pipe dreams. I'm in... just gunna veg out for a bit and think about it. I'll throw up a little something after I'm done imagining.

Yeah I am in, but I need to veg on it a bit too. But I will be back.

Too much there to absorb at the moment.

Ideally I'd have a couple recirculating hydroponic systems, a lá heath robinson... so, a spiral of 6 inch pvc pipe with holes cut in the top for net pots. Each system would serve 50 clones, one reservior, with ph, ec and temperature meters displaying realtime data.

For the light each system would have something like this. A barrel type led grow light. Whatever the market has to offer at the time of purchase...

The entire enclosure would be wrapped in reflective material on the inside to recapture stray photons. This setup is the highest yielding method I've researched to date on multiple levels including grams per watt at the time of harvest and grams per square foot of growing space.

It is constructed out of 4 foot sections of pipe and as many 45 degree elbow joints as you like. You're only limited by coverage area of your light. HPS bulbs can be substituted, but heat becomes a factor so additional ventilation is required. And it should be noted that either a bare bulb is needed, so no hood, or an umbrella style parabolic reflector could be used instead.

One of these recirculating hydroponic systems for each mother plant should do it... that way I could harvest a couple pounds of canna per strain every couple of months... Buy new genetics... clone those, grow out a hundred plants, make hash... move on to the next years strains... Sounds like a dream doesn't it?

I think I would have to hand things over to guido, my assistant manager. He would have things in order. He would have new plants coming every two weeks. all organic soil under them 1000 watt plasma lights for flowering. He would have the Kush exhaust set up goin out a 12' line,

I am not the kinda guy that can lay everything out on paper, But Guido is. I know my man cave would have monitors for cameras on the rooms , and monitors for my computers, and monitors for my tv's one about 46 inches. The kool fridge, my guitars, a killer stereo, and a Hammock. can't forget the hammock. Maybe create a rain forest climate and grow Killer Thai weed. That would be the tits.

I know not the specs you were looking for, but hey, Guido will take care of my details for me. After all, he gets paid Pretty good.

500+ gallon aquaponic, continuos circulation, with sump
LED Overhead maybe mix with Induction Lighting, t5 strip lighting for side lighting
set up a 4x4x7 tent for photo flowering in larger room
AC units, Carbon filter
Innoculated Mushroom bags for CO2 production hung from the ceilings
mounted fans for circulation
I would build it all to my specs

$:
900 AC
3 k on lights
2 k on build
2 k on fish equip, plumbing, extras, and electrical
1 k on fans and carbon filtering
probably pick up a couple of de-humidifiers 400
basic plug in heaters with left over

there ya go, I'm spent 10k

*plants in a week would be a problem, would have to grow in a soil medium until aquaponics cycles
aquaponics would be most hands off once cycled so I could concentrate on my breeding and helping other growers, or making the meds. could do it all my self. That large a grow with all the ins and outs would need help to do everything come harvest time in my opinion
I would build it all to my specs

I would run mostly all auto.
Goal: to bring some of the best new breeds of autos and only improve on those out there
side-goal: to help all those that need it as medicine or just enjoy it from time to time

Hate to nitpick, but light emitting diodes have light years on plasma tech. They use plasma lights in televisions too and led's are winning the market. They just use less energy. Yes, plasma sources produce excellent PAR, but so do led's in the correct ratio. These days plasma energy is only good to cut through thick layers of steel and iron. True story. Plasma cutters if you wanna look it up.

Innoculated mushroom bags... Winner winner chicken dinner. That's the best grow room addition I've heard in a while.
