I have a room that is 13x14 I would like to to contain everything in this space, veg growth, flowering, clones, and mothers. anyone have any ideals on how to separate this area without actually erecting walls? I really like zandor's set up and would try to imitate it, if he doesn't mind.
U have plenty of room...assuming that ur dimensions are in feet! for maximum ease ...simply pin a wooden frame along the middle of the ceiling and then continue the frame down the walls to the ground and along the floor so the frame joins up as one and separates the room into two boundries.u can then staple black plastic liner [or anything light proof] this will give a managable partition in which u can block the escape of light and keep a constant bud turnover between the veg room and the flower room[ try downloading 'I Grow Chronic' from the internet it will show you excactly what i mean plus some usefull hydro 'how to' info. if i had that much swpace to play with i would grow far too much ganja!!
Sure you can the 40 plant drip system I use is sold on eBay for about 400 bucks. The cloner is sole as well for just under 100 bucks.Quote:

I am serious about duplicating your system. I am a newbie to all of this a little concerned by my lack of knowledge and attempting to this sophisticated system. I just finished reading the cannabis grow bible by greg green. any and all help is greatly appreciated.
If you have a 40 head system in the flower shop you will probably want 40 count cloner ...because a pro flowers from clones right? To get a system like the Zandor's your going to spend some fat money ..but with 40 plants ..in optimum condition...your profits will pay for it in no time (unless u want to smoke all 40+ oz every 2 months) you need to get on the internet and fill a shopping cart to find out excactly what your cost will be...dont over look a carbon air /smell filter...coz that much ganja will STINK! Oh and Greg Greens book is the only book i've ever read 3 times!....what a book.!
thanks! yes, greg green's book is a great read, I couldn't put it down!
Well really it??s 2-40 count top drippers in the flower room with 2-1000w HPS Hortilux bulbs for each unit with air-cooled hoods. You can save some and use a light mover but the extra light is better if you want fast & big.
The veg room has 1-50 count tray, 1-96 count Aeroponics cloner, & 3 mothers. (Well by January they will be 3)
Each room has CO², AC, dehumidifier, carbon scrubber & Sulfur pot. Wall mount fans keep the air moving and cap extreme controllers monitor everything. (But the sulfur pot)
There are several exhaust fans and intake air blowers too. For all the cool hoods I have a 12? vortex that cools all the lights and only the lights. I just built a plenum box to feed the 4? & 6? vent tubes so the exit runs are short and compact.
I hope you have money. It will take about 8-10k to build a setup like that.
You harvest one group of 40 in the flower room every month. You move the best 40 from the veg room to the flower room after you harvest. Then you take the best clones to the veg system.
In about 2 weeks you cut clones again and start all over.
well I have 7k to work with. I am sure there will be incidental costs that I am not aware of yet, not to mention a significantly higher electric bill. I am dead set on getting only quality equiptment. wondering if I should scale it down to one 40 count drip system in flowering room, but that would defeat the whole ideal of croping every 30 days or so right?
could I get around using the cap extreme controllers? I am sensing these are really pricey.
Hey peace.
Your electricity bill should only rise 10-20$ depending on what your Hydro/Electric company charges per kw(kilowatt) 1 kw = 1000w.
