Thanks Dabs! Looks like your trip has had some pretty nice scenery so far.
The biggest problem with the setup will be people's expectations. Are you going to harvest a pound a pop hell no lol. Can you harvest 3-4 oz/month? sure. Hardcore pot heads could outsmoke the supply easily. But granny for her arthritis cream. Check. Uncle Bill for his special hockey brownies. Check. Or the ever increasing suburban toker can be that cannasnob they wanna be and grow their own top-shelf without ever having to park in a dispensary lot. Is it a system for everyone? Nope. Does it apply to a boat load of the new MJ people out there you betcha.
I know running a couple buckets help (s)ed me to better understand the growth cycle. And now I can use them to try different environmental conditions with my strains before I load up the main room so I know what environment they like best, or at least prefer.
With a vpd controller and say doc's Hi-brix kit, that's pretty bad Ass weed for like no work lmao.
Separate the temp and Rh controls, throw in some red/far red/blue on dimmers. Boom total F'ing control of what your plant does.
I don't however have a way to put them into a hot attic yet.
Cooling that small of a space is incredibly inefficient or requires @least daily user input if not twice daily. The best I can get with 80w of light (internal driver packaged Chinese cob) is 3°f over ambient room temp. Remote drivers I could easily hold ambient.
2 gal fabric pots fit great for allowing airflow, they sound small, but all my plants in the closet are in 2 gal so there's ample root space for the room they have. And hydro/aero is obviously an easy one just plop one of my hoods on any 3/5/7 gal bucket with net pot lid, install the latches and away you go.
I have a design for a carbon scrubber outlet on the 120mm fans to be 3d printed that uses a couple removable trays of activated carbon. And has a flange for a light snorkle for the flowering ladies.
Next project is an integrated lighting and environmental/system for tents based on the turbo-closet.
