Indoor A builders edge in grow room construction. Dream room

Thanks for the link. I decided to make mine out of 3/4 copper. I made the first one as an actual square and the remaining 2 are just U's that connect to the first one. It seemed to be a little more stable than PVC and only cost around 70$ compared to 30$ for PVC. I ended up soldering the new pieces that don't need to be disconnected to make things a little more ridgid. The netting is only 10 bucks at the local shop and comes in 3x15 with 3" openings.
 
Also reconfigured the watering and storage. Slimjim cans for 35$ each on Amazon. Local hydro shop sells al sorts of fittings real cheap. Ended up doing 3/4 drains in the bottom of each with hose and shut off valves. Added a pump and air stones to the resivour and ghetto rigged a hose coming from outside through another ghetto carbon filter contraption I made.

If anyone needs any type of waterline for anything like this hydrofarm makes absolutely AMAZING 1/2&3/4 black tubing. It stayes super flexible and when attaching it to any fitting it slides on easy and is pretty much there for good. Just a warning though I don't think it's made for serious pressure though. Throughout the experience I bought 2 100' rolls of each size and I haven't doubted it one bit. I think the fittings are hydrofarm as well. They are 1-4$ each and work great. Hell of a lot less expensive than using pex fittings like I first started using.

Also wanted to add that I picked up one of these for a little extra movement. Buyer beware, great concept but for the price they absolutely suck. About 20% as powerful than you would expect, w pattern is neat but it's so weak I don't think it's worth it. Blades are thin as paper. When first turning it on it shook like hell till they almost self balanced themselves.

If you want crazy air circulation, try this one. I have two at home, not for the plants, and they're amazingly powerful.

Hopefully not too off topic, but remembered something about the dream grow room and smoke lounge idea a couple pages back when I was talking to my brother about aquariums the other day. Had the thought that that an in wall or other nicely built in aquarium tied into an aquaponics grow system could also be a neat add. Just a thought.... :baked:

Looking good on the room and grow!!!!! :greenthumb:
