haha In my dream world Ill have 2 or 3 bonsai mothers (you can google an awesome thread/article written by oldtimer about it "All about Bonsai moms") In my veg space with a clone tray and a 2 spot DWC for veg. Then a two plant scrog in the system Im using now for flower. Rinse and repeat. Hopefully I can find a decent mother soon.
 
Amazon delivery! Whoop! plus a quick trip to the hydro store. I've got my new air pump which is amazing!!! So much air! The plants are going to love it for sure. I also got the permanent home for the first Mother I choose :) my old air pump will be used in here. Things are coming together more and more!

That DWC setup looks really tidy bro nicely done.

Am I right in thinking you will be keeping your mother plant in a DWC bucket too? Thats going to be one big momma that produces a LOT of clones .

Nice healthy looking plants, good work dude! ✌

Thanks for the kind words! Yup! The moms home will be a 3 gallon DWC bucket with 5" net pot top. I hope to have 2 moms at all times, 2 veg plants at all times and two beautiful girls in flower. Perpetual so I always have supply.

Picturing a big mother in there lol have your seeds came

lol me too! Hopefully a couple and a two tier shelf behind. Lower tier for a veg station on the left and upper tier for a cloner station on the right. Just a simple plastic or wood shelf.

The seeds have not shown up yet. Tomorrow will be 10 business days. We had a snow fall and also Christmas season so Ill stay hopeful fora while longer. Well see! :)

Get the air pumps out of the tent into a cool spot so you're not pumping hot stale air into your water unless you want to have to chill your water like me.

Thats a good call for sure. I would definitely take that advice if I had the space. If you look on the page before this I have a solution on the way Im going to try out and see how it works as far as cooling off the res a few degrees. Lemme know your thoughts dude!

20$ worth of air line to extend you distance from the grow heat is better than any diy chiller or 300$ pre made chiller imo. My new veg closet has the air pump way outside it and the water is 7 degrees cooler than ambient.

You may have read about how I cool my res. By 10 degrees with an inline fan, if you haven't I'd be more than happy to talk about it

I did! And that's basically what I have on the way but add in a small water cooler radiator that will sit with the fan. I mentioned it on the previous page but here's a quick picture to get an idea.
It's on the way!! I'll pump it with a small fountain pump mounted outside the res.

Nice. I like the radiator. It's shocking how much lower you can get the temps with a fan. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out
 
I did a thing lol. I wanted the veg closet running so badly!! I moved the one I think is a lady into the Mom unit. This is how the flower tent will be set up going forward. Back right hole for fan and water cooler. Front left hole for res changes (pump is right there for hose hookup) and water checks. Two plants to fill the scrog.

I definitely know what you mean, I wish I could. The grows have to be completely contained to the respective closets. Well see what happens. For 20$ its worth a shot with this little setup I have on the way.

Can you move it near a vent? Maybe one close to the ceiling? then use the vent to evacuate the heat. Just a thought
