More grow room rearrangement. Moved a 55 gallon drum into the corner that holds reverse osmosis water. The chiller next to it will maintain its temp at 62 degrees. Two pumps will be installed in this tank. One to cool the hydroponic tomato plants reservoirs utilizing beer wort chiller coils. And one to cool the carrot using 100 ft of 1/2 inch stainless tubing.I am contemplating attempting a carrot hydroponically to be grown in 65 gallons of coco with a 40 gallon nutrient reservoir. Have a little over a month to set up the system but already have most of the components. I had 100 % germination rate on the 3 different wixom slammer seeds so needed more hydro tomato pots.Only going to grow 6 of them. All hydroponic...3 in clay pebbles and 3 in coco. One year ago...indoors I had one tomato in a 5 gallon bucket under one 150 watt LED light. I am starting to like indoor growing more than outdoor. Wonder if my wife will agree with growing a pumpkin in the family room?
