Looks sexyyy, ya I agree with ^^ perhaps slightly longer veg?
Definitely a chiller if you stay sealed, vented will save you electricity but you will probably still need A/C in the summer.
Hepa filters on incoming air, ozone + carbon filter on exiting air?

Total environment control is what I learned from Krusty and Heath a long fukin time ago FC , but major air exchange /extraction ruled my rooms for a lotta yrs ftw , so you`re headed in the right direction....but...
I always outfitted each room with a/c`s and dehuey`s for insurance in extreme temp differences , but the lung rooms and exchanging each room`s air twice per minute always worked for me and many others over the yrs....
Just remember...."Overkill is underrated" as Lazyman says....equipment`s there if yas need it........
Good luck....DHF...

Major air exchange gets my vote... Too many ways to mess up CO2, and it doesn't even help that much, and not at all if you don't provide the right environment. Not that I've ever used supplemental CO2....
DHF knows this shit... I'm watching my grow improve constantly with his advice...

they're turning out great, i say you give em a bit more veg next time to fill that sucker up, now i wonder what if you get 4 of those walls and block the 1k bulb in the middle, put each rack on wheels mmm.........

You guys are aweome! I love the help! and thanks for lookin out!
I think i will go for the vented room but have a mini split for back up.
My plan is to have 2 full squares runnin 4 weeks apart and a mother room for clones.
Yea i will definately veg a little longer on the next run. maybe a week to 10 days.
Redspaghetti... the wheels are rollin baby!!

Thanks laylow. Originally i had the reservoirs up on the platform but i figured they would stay cooler sitting on the concrete, which is why you see the plywood cutout.
But one system will have the res up so as to be able to move it back to get inside.

Dmn FC that grow looks tight, get ur air exchange and temps under control and your gunna blow that shit up!
DOa EET!
DOa EET!
....and yes the wheels make it special...but remember to use the pink "breast cancer" zip ties BWAHAHAHAHAhAh
WTF is that supposed to mean??? j/k ha ha ha...

I was kinda wondering the same thing? Lol its all good..probably some humor in there somewheres.

FC....Bobble got nailed fer usin pink zipties in his setup....was an inside joke.....
Can`t see the pics Bro , but I`m sure shit`s progressing nicely , and yeah.....always have all the equipment needed for comfort control in case of emergencies....
You`ll be pleasantly surprised how easy it is ta control the heat off bare bulbs if yas just follow the rules of extraction I learned many yrs ago.....
You`re pissin in the wind with lower ambient temps with CO2 supplements tryin ta keep rez temps down....I`ll say this again.....the only few setups I ever saw that rocked CO2 was with temps well into the 90`s with proper high ass humidity through end of stretch , and keepin RH under control lights off as well as keepin ambient temps within 10 degree variables between lights on and lights off till end of cycle....
Rez`s need ta stay out of the grow areas for the explicit reason you`re experiencing potential problems with solution temps....
Aqua-Logic makes a bad ass "drop-in" Probe chiller unit that won`t restrict flow to your sprayers if a chiller`s needed ta save yer shit till end of cycle , but last 1 I bought was a decade or so ago for my last krusty bucket runs , and it was damn expensive for 1/2 hp unit although it worked like a charm...and....yas get whatchas pay fer in this `ol world....
Good luck Bro...Holler if I can help....
Peace.....DHF.........
Edit: See the pics now.....killer job Bro....

LOL pink zippis..
Thanks for stoppin in DHF. Ive been reading alot of your posts and using your advice to design my new room.
Major air exchange is the name of the game. If i had to chill all the res's i would need 8 probes.. (Im gonna have 8 walls, 2 full squares in the new room. I was gonna pick your brain about the lung room also. The racks are lookin pretty good. Its gonna take some time and the right strains to get everything dialed in of course.
I wonder why you cant see the pics?? I will get a shot and post it up.

Ouch on the 8 probes needed Bro.....I ran 325 gal rez`s for both rooms at each location way back when , and 1/2 hp probe type chiller kept my rez`s at constant 65-69 degrees....but they sat on concrete floors that helped alot too....
I edited my last post ta note that I did see the pics , so no worries....Lung room`s are babyshit simple Bro....Just an outside enclosed area around the bloom rooms so yas can extract heat and smell from the grow area`s while taking the exhausted air and reconditioning it before and as it`s recirculated back into the bloom rooms ftw.....of course I employed a/c`s , dehuey`s , and all other bells and whistles needed for said process...and....
I pulled outside fresh air from the crawlspaces under the houses I grew in , so there was never stagnant air , since I had big ass exhaust /scrubber on a timer to come on 4 times a day ta keep fresh air in and push stale air out.....
The larger the grow area , and the more light yas use in 1 room will affect your ambient temps and be a potential problem in warmer seasons without the auxiliary a/c`s in the wings for temp control....
Holler if I can help....DHF.........
