[dub bud]

heey its been a wild past couple days, funny you mentioned water and electricity. well i was getting things wired up pretty good, very excited and feeling confident. and i came home yesterday to my complete room flooded ! was like a dam swimming pool !! in my room i have a water filter to remove chlorine. and the cover that holds the charcoal filter CRACKED and drained water out for HOURS !! dam cheap junk ! ruined everything...i may even have to replace the floor... soo at this point im going to take a break, and take the time to make sure everything i buy is top quality so i dont have issues like this again. but i am still super excited from the amount i have learned in the last few days, no one can take that away from me. i will get that washer n dryer grounded asap.
RIVES THANK YOU !!!!!!!!! ICMAG THANK YOU !!!!!! i will be back =]

I too have made all of the water mistakes. Anymore I just do hand water drain to waste. Only this last week after moving back downstairs have I hooked up my RO system again!

Let her dry out real good before you make any determination as to what needs to be replaced. You may be surprized.

About 30 years ago, I had built a growroom in my attic. I was using 800 watts of HPS over flood & drain tubs, and somehow the pressure line blew off of the flood tray fitting and drained the reservoir. Of course, my wife and I were out to dinner and had a babysitter over when the water started mysteriously pouring through the dining room ceiling. Shit does happen.

so i been thinking about this a lot lately, and all the awesome help i got. thank you all so much again. but looks like i may be done...... i ran into some issues.... had about 20 of kansas's finest kick my door down with shot guns and ar-15s a few months back.... so bummed and traumatized. any ideas were i can look for legal help? i have court in a month or so... i really need to get out of this state and go somewhere that i can do what i belive in, and not endup in jail, for nothing.

as far as lessons go... im still numb. not sure yet. im not even sure what made them do this, maybe ill find out at court. but i dout they will reveal anything. right now im jus trying to figure out how to not endup in jail or homeless, because they did find some stuff. they took thousands of dollars of equipment and destroyed my house. and on top of that the booking fines, bail costs, and a lawyer hurt my wallet bad....that i had to get loans on my cars to pay for. and this is all before i even have been charged with anything....ugh. jus not sure what to do. sorry to be a bummer but i need to vent. any advice would be awesome ! or if anyone knows someone thats in kansas that might be able to help would be awesome.
