Oldmac and I have fought this battle time and again on these forums. There is a huge difference between low pressure and high pressure in terms of delivery. Personally, I have yet to be convinced that the results are any different, but then again I totally failed. I started hitech too and the more complicated it got, the more shit I threw into a big box to sit. 14 months later I still do not have a car in my garage from all the shit I bought and threw out.

I have seen a unit like this only with sliding curtains, hard solid curtains, perhaps to seal the space for c02. The only difference in their design and yours other then the round tubes, was that their unit got wider I thought at the top. Seems to me that if you dont create an inverted cone, then the plants at the bottom have a hard time competing with the plants up top. I believe that when you look at these units from the top down, you will see that each plant is spaced appropriately horizontally and not stacked on top of each other like yours will be.

No fogging system or aero system is going to benefit this design. You need to be thinking in terms of NFT systems. Think about your roots. They are going to grow along those tubes and lie flat. They wont be suspended for long and as the weeks go by the more those tubes will fill with thick long roots. Fine, no big deal, just use a NFT type system and flood the tubes with nutes to cover the roots. Make sure and slant all tubes for proper drainage no matter what you do.

2k is way over priced. No sale. Think in terms of cost of labor and price of material, not arbitrary numbers that look good on your balance sheet. 90% of the time we are talking about pricing structures equal to about 100 to 200% mark up of cost. This typically factors in labor. Don't be thinking your entitled to 200% then labor costs too. People dont care that it took you 18 months to put it together, that just makes you look all the more retarded.

You should be looking at the new designs coming out on hydro systems. All of them are bubble systems of one design or another. That's where you need to focus your energy. Take a 20 dollar tub of plastic, slap your name on it and call it the Bubble Master 2k10 then charge 45$ on eBay. China is world power number one not because of quality but because of quantity. There are too many poor people in the world to give a shit about quality these days. Besides, what do you know of quality hydroponics? Seriously? What do you know? Just because you can use a CAD program, doesn't mean you understand why certain designs are the way they are.

Finally, I'll add this. Out of all the ballot measures I saw last night only 2 of the dozens or more marijuana initiatives passed and even those were non binding state questions. What that tells me is that most of the country is still uneasy about what will happen when their 21 year old baby is gonna be allowed to purchase pot at the local 7-11. As such we are still not ready to industrialize pot production in this country and until then, a system like that does nothing more then increase potential jail time. Your customer base are people like me who openly scream bloody murder on the net but then hide in the shadows of public. Cabinet growers are your target market. The one thing I have not seen made available is a total cab grow. This would include T5's or LED's and some sort of bubble bucket system. Price it like a wal-mart paintball gun and your up and running. It wont be till that sucker goes to the field will he realize he got took! (any fucktard that thinks he can take me on the field with a wal-mart special will have to meet my friend EGO)
