I've posted this on other sites, am not getting any feedback.
I'll be changing to something a little different. I hope I can rattle some cages and get some input. I'll be posting some chicken scratch drawings, and making alot of reference links to information and products.

Please, keep in mind, this is still in the thinking stage. And, quite dependant on technology and prices, which is dropping fast, im happy to say. We want more power, less space, less price.
I'll be prototyping only one of three different sized compartments first. The 96 cubic foot Pod should provide room for four and possibly 6 plants. Maylar lined with spray adhesive, if possible. (any thoughts)

Lighting will be LED, for too many reasons to list here. I'll give you a reference, cause nobody says it easier than somebody else.

They know all the numbers, but we want powerful numbers. So, I'm going to build my own. And, hopefully save from their pricetag. Examples, of what im looking at.

Ratios would run roughly 70% red(625-630, 25% blue(465-470), 5% green(525). Changed for optimum performance and at various intravals through out the grow cycle. There are many applications LED's can be used for. I might break out some more ideas on those later on.
Plants will be grown Rockwool and 4" net pots, in three, to possibly four, liter open air root chambers. Which will be secured to 2.5 gallon reservoir. Nutrients will be sprayed into the chamber with mister nozzles mounted to each side using a submersible mini pump (See: chicken scratch #1). I know that ultrasonic foggers will be used in the smaller plant and clone chambers, but still debating use for large scale plants. An air pump, placed outside the building, and stones will provide fresh air for the roots. Left long enough, the air tube can be coiled over a heater and provide some warmth to the reservoir. Some example products.

I'll leave this thread open for a few hours for any Q&A, then I'll continue the setup.

There is no reason to spam multiple forums with "read my post for info"
Your post will be looked through, you simply have to give it time without beating people over the face with it.
Signatures are open to users with 50+ posts.
Welcome to the forum.. but please remember this is a forum.. it will take hours,days and even weeks to get the feedback you're looking for.
Bob.

So the posts I made had nothing to do with helping people? Someone asking about light spectrums has nothing to do with LED lighting? I'm just trying to get some feedback. Maybe, it's useless anyway.

I'm just stating that you don't need to post " Read my post for more info." in 8 or 9 different forums.
Give it time, you'll get feedback.

I think that with the LED it is really unfamiliar to people for the most part kind of like CFL's used to be so not to many people are giving it allot of thought at this point. My suggestion is to journal a nice grow with some of the ideas you have then you'll start to get some interest. Think about it you want to basically make a small revolutionary change in the way 99% of people grow MJ right now, so some links and some chicken scratch won't really do much for you IMO. I ain't trying to bust your bolts so don't take it that way.
People used to nock the CFL idea's but once they saw some killer results like Bob journaled for us the people started to really sit up and check it out. Give people something they can sink their teeth into, or something they can stick in their pipe and you'll get allot more input IMO. It's the nature of the beast.
There are other sights that have forums on micro growing that are doing the LED grows and perhaps you need to check out what they are doing for in house grows and incorporate the ideas into your plans and give us a prototype grow.
