yea dood unless you redesign the inside of that tank to accomodate a sea of casings rather than just 2

possibly even double layer that tank and grow on 2 levels?

then i think that would top off the l33tness of the design, because with just 2 casings?!?! it seems far from efficient

all else its fucking cool, you should go all fuckin out

I dont know why anyone would ever use anything but perlite it is just so much easier. Those two closets pictured above could just have a large pan with about two inches of perlite at the bottom I bet it could humidify the whole thing.

Did you find it a lot more advantageous using the ultrsonic because when fruits started forming you could lower it to the 87%-95% range which is optimal for fruiting? I find with perlite its hard to keep it anything but 99%. You say that the ultrasonic puts fresh air into the chamber when it is on. You dont leave it on all the time? Also, does it have some sort of filtration system to keep contams from entering chamber through the humidifier? I am curious because I am thinking of starting a setup very similar to the one above with the tents and debating on whether to use perlite or not. I thought that If I put a large tray of perlite at the bottom and another maybe midway to the top? that It could probably humidify the whole thing with a air pump next to a hepa that could provide for fresh air exchange. Do you have any suggestions? Oh yeah I can kinda see in that second tent a plastic shelving system that I will probably use from home depot. good durable cheap and plastic I like it

You can eliminate the need for a humidity sensor by using a combination wet and dry bulb thermomitor setup.  I was not able to find a wireless humidity sensor (I'm a cheap bastard, so weather station stuff was pretty much out), so I used a couple 433MHz of wireless thermo units from walmart. 

Since my grow-closet has a fan inside to keep air circulating (humidity will stratify in chambers with lots of vertical space, also a problem in large humidors) I place the two temp sensors in front of it, one wrapped in a bit of cheesecloth that is kept wet in a water resovoir.  This kind of sensor works just fine in a condensing environment, unlike most of the reasonably priced digital sensors I find. I calibrated the output against a regular needle type hygrometer to make sure the air was moving quickly enough for the RH calculations to work. 

To get the signal to the computer I built an AVR microcontroller based receiver out of the RF module from the wireless base station (the RF board is a seperate module with a 2-wire interface, very easy to use). When a temp reading comes in from one of the three possible sensors (I'm only using two), the microcontroller sends it to the computer over the serial port.  I wrote a simple program that keeps the environment in the right range.  It runs on an old 486 laptop with a Firecracker X10 transmitter to handle the humidifer, fresh air fan, and the light that provides temp control.

The wireless temp monitors are only $15 bucks at walmart, and I already had all the X10 stuff, so it ended up being pretty cheap.  I did have it set up with an X10 cam in the grow chamber, but they are really poor in low light and it seemed really cheesey to make the computer read a screen-shot of an LCD to get the temp :smile:

Here is the receiver for the temp sensor, you can find them at wal-mart, over by the air filters.
