Setting up the garden of my dreams - Scroggernaut 2.0 "either yer scroggin er yer not"
Old grow was a 4x4 closet inside a garage. New grow will be a 8x10 room with a 4x8 and 2x4 in 2020, and adding at least another 4x4 in 2021. My son will be learning how to grow this year in a dedicated 2x4 space, soiless mix, hand water. The additional 4x8 will be in a dutch bucket recirculating system (Thanks to GreenMachine for the advice so far, coming for more). All tables will be custom designed and made by me.
Genetics will be a mix of Original Sensible Seeds (Bruce Banner #3) In house genetics (Slurricane ix) and some FastBuds testers
So far in 5 days I have built the structure, and completed most of the insulating. Wiring before I finish the walls to save some future headaches.
Lighting will be 3 x HLG 550 clones over a 4 x 10 foot area. This gives 36 LED watts per sqft, and the PAR rating on these lights is insane. Should be more than enough light. Thank you to XeenRecoil for the advice on Samsung LM301b and h diodes
Spend so far:
Materials = $405
Lights x 3 = $1650 (good deal - Yuanhui LED on Alibaba - Abby Zheng is the best)
Pump = $30 @ 70% off

Grow Questions
BudXsstarted grow question 5 years ago
Dutch bucket, hempy bucket, bato bucket, etc etc...
Conventional medium is perlite/vermiculate. Recent trend has seen some growers go coco above the dutch hole, and perlite below. For those that have tried both, what is best? And why?

If you're set on going hydro, then I strongly suggest you consider NFT. In your space, you could fit a couple of 2 x 6 or 8' trays and grow mega-crops. Look at @hydrohippy_1 diaries:

BudXsstarted grow question 5 years ago
Which of the two options do you choose and why:
Option 1: 1440w over 40sqft giving 36w per sqft
Option 2: 1440w over 48sqft giving 30w per sqft.
The difference is an extra 2x4 of grow space. Do i go for more lumens or more plants? This is my first LED setup

More lumens will give you bigger, better, tastier, nicer looking buds. More plants will give you more bud(perhaps) but the quality will not be as good, always go for extra light, you will need it in flowering too!, ๐๐ฑ๐

@Njaak, Yes!! We can store stuff from the garage in the crawlspace... and then build a bigger grow area :) I'm good with a drill and wiring.
