Almost done setting up my 4 reefer container facility. The biggest sticking point is the HVAC. 

Ive received so much conflicting information. Each grow room container is roughly 26m2 (280ft2) in dimensions and 67m3 (918ft3). 

Ive talked to people who say because of evaporative cooling with the misting i can do fine with a 2ton (24k btu) split unit behind a plenum, others say i need 5 ton (60k btu) minimum. Im hoping to fit around 400, 11# blocks in each container. 

Anyone have real world experience with container growing?

Our climate is caribbean costa rica, average 23c-29c/75f-85f daily and were hoping to mantain the container at 16c-17c/62f-63f

Suuuuuuuup.

This is my first post here (I lurk a lot on forums, please accept my mushroom beebs as tribute). I'm working on possibly getting a HART Ultimix system installed via grant funding, however I'm wondering how much of a difference there is between the $100 brass solenoids and the $17 ones? I can venture to guess quality, but can anyone describe what the weak points of a solenoid are? I have limited experience installing solenoids.

Butforealtho - I don't want to clean my hydrofoggers anymore lol

Is there anyone making a small scale bag tumbler machine out there?

Who's using the black bags?  Do you like them? Wondering if the magically increased yields are happening with Chesnuts also. They are pricey for sure.  Found 100 for $60 but just wondering other's thoughts/experiences

Tuesday Frigging Night 🤘☮️🤘. Got some agar, got some Liquid mediums and I'm cooking French fries at 420°.  This is a good day and I can't wait to take pictures of the cool shit this is all for. Hope everyone is doing well, fully stocked with Green bud and happy for this summer.  I am. 

Looking to upgrade to a continuous band sealer, any recs besides the Bosch 550 mentioned in one of the videos? Trying to stay under $3k for now

We all starting somewhere. There's my first home lab set up. Im about to buy a flowhood soon and epoxy paint the desk, now i'm using a homemade glovebox. I got everything I need to make it work.

Any essential equipment for tincture production that has made your process easier/more efficient? We have some pretty basic alcohol extraction and boiling extraction methods. I have seen some people talk about industrial strength grinders as a way to increase surface area and extraction. 

Combo pellets was pretty cool to see. $500 for a ton seems really affordable too. I've spent over $500 this year for far less than 2,000 lbs...........shit. I've went the soy pellets and hwfp and to see your pellets like with no standing h2o in the bag looks perfect. 

What's up Mainers 🤘. Just wondering if you guys have found conclusions about how many 10lb Chestnut blocks is a maximum amount assuming there is a perfect FAE/humidity situation. I'm about to be building a Chestnut only grow room which is about 500 Cubic Feet of space. Possibly an answer is doomed to a shit load of variables. Had a tent packed and removed a few blocks because I assume they were breathing all the air up and the CO2 was hard to keep below 900. My aim is to achieve at least 40blocks fruiting. Any advice is sweet I just don't want to mess up the first big round of them as I'll just go pick them up from you guys. So far I've been able to use trade over money for funding. 10oz Cordys got me a Flow Hood and various side masonry jobs got me $1,200 of which I have what I need now, steel studs in all. We have a shit load of kids so spending my income/losing money is not an option for me
