Cooling an 8Kw Grow

[Guest]

Just because it`s Friday night and folks might`ve forgotten about "way over 1 gram per watt" that used to be displayed on several websites regularly as well as here and then formed it`s own website with major "EGO" issues.......Krusty`s grow`s ALWAYS brought in well over 1 gram per watt of "dried cured product" and his best was over gram and a half with 33.5 lbs. under 10000 watts with strategic light placement so each plant had 3 lights down amongst each tree in a "diamond pattern of plants and an X pattern for the lights.......There`s not ANYONE here that can match that without yrs. of our experience of dialin in systems to "produce" as well as maintaining potency for quality of product repeatedly........NH.......You holler in PM if you need to "increase the beast".......PEACE............DHF.........

3kw of light and a 12000 btu 800w portable AC wasn't enough.

Window shakers are more efficient than portables and they are considered very efficient if they cool 1k btu per hundred watts. it would be normal for a portable drawing 800 watts to cool between 7k to 8k btu's. 12k cooling btus from 800 watts is not likely....especially from a portable. what's the brand and model?

I cool 3k watts with 10k btu window shaker with no probs... cool climate here helps some.

who the fuck is krusty??? wasn't he that phillipino fella who grew massive single cola plants in a sog? ....teehee

naw, the filipino guy youre talking about is SoQuick. Krusty is a tree grower, dude gets 6 plants and yields 12 lbs like nothing. He uses a top feed, bottom drain type of dwc with verticle lighting. I think SoQuick got busted since no one heard from him in years. and Krusty, who knows where hes at.
