Grow Room New 4x4 Setup

[Drownomatic]

I bought a new Gorilla 4x4, and I'm slowly setting it up.

I got the extension to 8ft as well so I can put the light as high as possible.

I'm going to be using the Mars Hydro FC-8000, and a couple of Agromax PureUV.

Containers shown are 13 gallon. I often tour, and I'm gone for 3 days. I've decided that the most reliable safest self watering system is simply having a bigger container.

The wheeled drip trays are a must with this much weight if you want to be able to move them, or give them a turn every couple of days.

I'm going to make something different for exhausting air. Stay tuned for that

Got my @Marshydro FC-8000 setup.

Yes, it fits in the 4*4 perfectly

With the light this high at full brightness I am able to get 50 DLI at the top of the containers (18 hrs) and 40 DLI 24" above the containers on a 12 hr reading. This should be enough power that I don't have to move the light ever.

The higher you are able to place your light source the more light your lower vegetation will get. As long as you can deal with the heat.

I'll be adding 2 20 watt UV bug zappers as well.

Next update will be the ventilation system. I am going with a large diameter lower rpm fan, probably 12" to keep noise down.

How do you like the tent so far? If you were shopping for a 4x4 again would you get the same?

Absolutely. I already had their 3x3.

One of the reasons is it included the extension to 8'. I've needed it at times for sativa.

Their fabric is tough and has held up.

You can literally hang from their bars. Not that I would, but I do hold a riser when I reach in to work on a back plant to keep from throwing my back.

Minor gripe: I wish the door zippers were 2 way in that you could unzip from top or bottom. Its top down only.

Good feedback, thanks
