Cool setup and amazing photo skills you have.

What lens is that? Camera body? I'm loving the wide angle and excellent lighting.

Thanks guys, I am using a Canon 5d and for these last 2 pictures I was using the Canon 85 f/1.8 and then for the other pictures I use either the Canon 24-70 f/2.8 L or the
Canon 17-40 f/4 L. My other job is as a photographer so most of this comes pretty easy for me, but it is always nice to have some nice pictures of what I love.

Yeah smiley, I feel you on the doing stuff at the beginning part. My next setup is going to be awesome I think. Going to run everything in the walls and have it very well thought out. That was my goal for this one, but money along the way was my limiting factor. Now that my first harvest is coming out, I should be able to at least finish the setup and getting the last few things I need. I am excited to finally almost have it done. I get happy everytime I go into my room with the realization that I built everything. Very good feeling.

Yeah totally hear you, my budget got halved in the middle of the build due to a death in the family so it left me without the reserves I set aside to buy an A/C dehumidifier, etc etc

If we move to the country soon, the next room I build is going to look like a nice beautiful room. Everything in the walls and flush mount including mini split etc...... I really want to do white "subway style" tiles floor to ceiling. Entire corner will be a tiled shower pan.

Just tons of ideas...... but we put hardwork into the rooms that aren't permenant to have more skilla and ideas for the next one.

I'm having a lot of fun with it and I bet you are too...... I'm mostly happiest with my power panel.... including how I'm going to re do.

I'm a canon guy from way back..... I still have an A/2 with grip laying in a box somewhere Famous dial never broke on mine..... I sold all my l lenses when I gave it up..... got nearly what I paid..... mis that 50 1.2l

Here are some new pictures of room 1 and my veg room today.

Couple of the veg room from today.

 

[RedDeer]

Here are a couple more from today.

 

[RedDeer]

Got some insulating foam stuff wrapped around my fresh water res and the res in the room on the left. Also I put some duct booster fans on my intakes to hopefully help even my temperature out a little until I can get some 10in ducting installed for my room on the right. I think my AC is just going to have to get upgraded too. Never ending list of stuff. I will take some pictures in a little while so you guys can check it out.

 

[RedDeer]

Here are the new pictures.

 

[RedDeer]

Anyone know how I could do a light proof intake on the flower rooms to the veg room?They need to be able to block the light from both directions and provide enough airflow for a 10" duct. I am not sure on dimensions I would have to use on a light trap for the 10". Ideas?

 

[MumBumper]

RedDeer how did you plumb your sink drain?

 

[RedDeer]

My sink is plumbed into a drain line that I ran off a clean-out that was in the ground. The fresh unfiltered water is off the hose and then the faucet is off of my RO line that I have T'ed to run to my float valve that is in the large reservoir and then the other runs to the faucet on the other side of the room.

 

[NotsoFla]

for the trap just make a 10" tube with black painted or inside in shape of _|-|_ . the middle one is obv gonna go to the top (couldnt find the key :S)
or make a box with a block in center 2/3 to 3/4 way, and intake/out on opposite sides

 

[RedDeer]

My only concern with doing a trap that way is I think the openings should be bigger than 10" to compensate for the bends and so the fan doesn't have to work so hard. I just need to figure out how much space I have to do the light trap, because I don't have too much space to use so that is the hardest part to figure out.

 

[RedDeer]

Lots of progress is being made, but it is such a pain in the ass. Almost got all the electrical work done for the flower room on the right which is currently empty until I can get it filled up. Going to be very, very nice to not have to use any power strips or extension cables any more. Got some wall mount oscillating fans that are going up tomorrow, a new AC is getting installed tomorrow as well hopefully. Finally almost got everything I had planned setup.

 

[GeorgeSmiley]

Glad to hear things are coming around for you. There is a certain satisfaction getting th electrical how you like.

What kind of A/C you getting?

Smiley

 

[RedDeer]

It is a 20,000btu window AC that I am making an AC box on. Then I am running a cold air exhaust from the AC to both my flower rooms and the intake for the AC coming from the Veg room to assist with circulation of the room. The heat from the AC is getting exhausted out with some 16" ducting

 

[RedDeer]

So AC is in progress, but taking longer than expected like everything else I do. Goal for the day is finish the AC, get the wiring done or at least going in the veg room and fill room 2 up with plants and get those flowering.

 

[RedDeer]

AC hopefully will be done in the next couple hours... This shit is a pain in the ass. It really sucks, I am going out of town for a month come Tuesday night and everything that I need done has to get done before then. Partners can't manage shit without me here.
