Greetings & Thank You For Visiting This Thread

31/05/07 marked the day that a flood & drain system with a sum of 32 x ''20-day-old'' Dunk (G13) and AK47 clones arrive in the flowering room.

The flood & drain system consists of 1* 60L+ reservoir and 2* trays that are seated in an NFT fashion.

There are 32 net pots, 16 on each tray. Each net pot is filled with Washed clay medium.

On each tray there is an air line hose attached to a pump. These hoses deliver oxygen to the water which floods the top trays. The air bubbles are constantly released beneath the net pots.

The reservoir has a single submersed water-pump that feeds both trays by use of various connectors and pipe fittings. There is also an air stone situated near the pump.

That is the basic setup of the flood and drain system. i won't go into the Manufacturers names unless asked specifically.

There is a single 600W HPS with an Adjust'a'Wing shade lighting the setup, but there are other lights in the space which totals around 3kW of HPS lighting on 12/12.

The room's air conditioning consists of; a constantly open window covered with a blackout curain, 2* 16" oscillating fans, and a 8" box fan terminated with a pretty long 8" carbon filter (both at ceiling height and horizontal) and ducted to a chimeny. With 3kW of light during the daytime the temperature doesn't exceed 27C. But back to the flood & drain specifics.

I will add better quality photos as time goes on, but for now you will be able to get an idea of the setup with the poor quality pic taken with my webcam below.

Thanks for reading!!
