As a single unit in the past it's been great. Never used it with the controller before.

Yes they're still very young, but a lot of the roots were sticking through the rockwool and getting brown tips. I figured better to put them in early then to risk stunting them. They're soaking in nutrient solution diluted to 1/4 the recommended dose for seedlings.

3-14 caribbean red

3-14 Jolokia

Nice mate! i wish i had the cashola and time for the hydro, but space is not so abundant here at the House Of Pants.

The only thing money wise I'm worried about is the Nutrients. As far as electric, let's say 600W HPS is like running 6 incandescent 100 watts? or am I wrong, so it shouldn't be that much. I'm hoping less than 30$ a month including my air pumps. I'm not sure how much energy the fan is sucking. I should by one of those meters that you can plug things into and it tells you how much power it's drawing.

yeah cats can get into trouble, but she's almost 13 with severe asthma. She is too old and tired to raise any hell by killing my pepper seedlings

Couple years back i'd have to have them in a locked room lol

Deep Water Culture Experiment. Plants seem to like it, just a 5 gallon bucket with nutrient solution and an air stone. I have no idea what species this plant is. I like to leave myself with a few suprises later.
