So this was the set-up at the end of the last run. Various different set-ups in this cab over the last dozen or so grows.

It really did work well, I'd get 2.5 to 3.5 zips off most of the dwarf plants like LowRyder 2. I always ran Lucas and lights 24/0. KISS principle. One of those lights was 8yrs old, and the other was 4yrs old. I decided to upgrade the light and you know... well, I like gadgets so might as well make some other upgrades while I'm up, right!?!

I went with a QB288 V2 for the light, added a smart wi-fi power strip that allows me to control each outlet and the usb bank separately, and a pair of adjustable PC fans for interior breezes... adding a wifi hygrometer as well...

The foot print is 11" x 16" and height above res can be 21"s. That's more than I had before and with some training it should be plenty.

Poppin' a new seed as we speak. :)

Looks a lot tidier.

Thanks! Yes, once again there is order in the universe. :biggrin:

I got some pollen off my last run via applying CS to one branch, so this run we'll pollinate a branch for some seeds.
 
So a re-post using this sites photo upload... Is there a way to delete a thread so I could start over and post the photos directly here?

Day 1 week 2 - changed out res and added some very light nutes. Seems the drooping was from a too high PH problem which hopefully has been resolved.

Not looking good for the home team. PH is going crazy... 5.5 to 7.5 in a matter of hours.

The droop continues. I've been changing out the res daily. My temps are up with the new light, and it's a new vessel that I might not have cleaned well enough... and, I can't remember if I used tap water or ph'd tap water on the hydroton and rockwool.

Might have to add another fan to improve air-flow and knock the temps down. I have several other things to try first.
