Interesting, what are your parameters in terms of Co2, Humidity and Temp in your fruiting room?

Swain You could also just put down some 6mil painters plastic on the floor to cover up the carpet, but as Gregor pointed out, having the filter run a while before use will help clean the air. Hepa filter fans, especially the FFU's pull something like an amp and a half, thats less than an old school light bulb, so I doubt the draw will effect the electric bill much if at all. Stack some cash and give it to ol ma and pa for the grounded current and all it square! Cover is a great idea and i would also suggest allowing the fan on top or at the back of the flowhood pull from outside of the lab space...builds positive pressure and resists a lot of issues with simply employing recirculation.

Aaron Kang Ahhh, gotcha, those are just treaded copper, black iron and hilariously enough, brass...honestly it was what we had laying around the shop. You can use pex, rubber hose, hard pipe, literally whatever makes sense!

Hey Aaron,

There is not, you can make eveything water tight with liquid line an such but all the plumbing for us in this example is just piped in and the electric lines from the solenoid to the POLA is just run right into the box. The who apparatus is mounted outside of the grow room so moisture isnt an issue.

corraloides for the win!

So that's a traditional (single or maybe double doored) autoclave, likely with an electric steam boiler beneath it. If its in working condition it likely runs liquid cycles, gravity cycles and vacuum cycles! Working on these can be a beast, so get a serial number and the manufacturer and reach out for details on the unit. could be the best investment or could be the worlds heaviest paper weight...its a gamble with auctions and steam claves!

We are working on making the audio just as tasty as this one! Gotta love field recordings among the drone to get ya in the zone! so glad you dug it!!!

Also, we do have a cordy cultivation video in the works so keep an eye out for updates and a release info for that were we will be demystifying the "cordy mobs" religious secrecy, making it really understandable for anyone getting into growing militaris!

Here is an abstract from this study: 

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30806271/#:~:text=Preservation%20in%20sterile%20water%20has,satisfactory%20method%20for%20preserving%20C.

It points out some really interesting things in terms of ideal temps and techniques but something to note is freezedrying is the ultimate preservation system suggested by this article which is something we will hopefully bring to this community in the year to come! All that being said refrigeration at 34F seems to be the best in between for folks not getting into lyophilization.
