Put the order in for the new nutrients and chiller yesterday.. I'm still not sure how I'm going to do the reservoir/s. Might do 2 7.5 gal grow tubs with a 15 gal reservoir if I can get the Rhizosphere correct. Going to do some tests on a evaporative reservoir for Rh and temp control.

Nutes arrived today. Chiller will be here BETWEEN 9/12 and 10/3 😱. Hoping to drop seed(s) next weekend.

So here's the mock-up of the new tubs. The vivosun air compressor is killer. I'll sanitize and do cable routing tomorrow also need some more drip line. Found the perfect rubber bushings for the airlines and pump cords. Going to cut the factory plugs off the pumps and replace them with industrial orange plugs. This will help me tell what's what and clean cable routing.

The rubber grommets work great. Drilled three 3/8" holes for each tub. I used 1/4" grommets for the airlines and 5/16" for the pump cord.

These trellis I got at the .99¢ store for .25¢ ea. I'll either use them as anchor points or a mini scrog.

Next will be light proofing the lids. The sanitize. And drop some seeds.

Ok, for some reason I'm on a roll......must be the CBDs. First lid insulated. Just need to form the pot seal and do the same to the second.

So I have a wild Idea on using the trellis for a scrog (once again CBDs at work). It requires dry white toast, four whole chickens, and a Coke.......

Seriously tho, I have some 1/4" flat bar that I can mount the SCroG to and then use all thread double nuts and wing nuts to mount it to the reservoir lid. The lid and tub both have pre drilled holes. I would need to make the tub holes bigger so the lid sits flush when assembled and use 3/4" flat bar to reinforce the lid. I'll be able to adjust the SCroG up and down with wing nuts.

Damn dude you're gonna have to put a support under the floor to support your reservoir. I got some W8x18 if you need. I'm just kidding of course it's great to see mechanical stuff integrated!!!!!
 
I'm lucky....... kinda.... Slab construction.
Funny thing about concrete......
There are two kinds
1. Concrete That's cracked
2. Concrete That's gonna crack
 
You know your concrete! It gets hard and it cracks. Basically it's 2 most important properties 😉

Final inspection. Thought he was going to ding me for the manifolds not matching.

Filling tubs with sanitizing solution. Should be able to drop them beans in a few hours.

9/3/17 Planted seeds.

2 Humboldt Seed Organization Bubba Kush.

pH 5.5 and 5.7

Water temperature 74*

Added Farmers Pride root powder 2tsp in one reservoir 1/2 in the other

Root Riot. One I cored out and turned upside down and plugged both ends. The other I did standard. From now on I'll be turning them up side down. The standard way they want to work themselves up.

Now to wait.

Yeah you two have taken DWC design and construction to another level do you have an option for cup holders?
 
Sweet! I made a 2.0 but nothing like you two have done. It incorporates a mounted adjustable bamboo trellis (hoping to hold these monsters down. But it's nothing like you two have done.
