I do also see what you mean about vendor interactions here. But, I’m not the guy with a price tag attached to everything I do.
I was trying to sell a used system which I had installed in LA to help a friend and would have received nothing from it, offering to put you in direct contact with the owner. I did offer to refactor it for your needs and, of course, would have needed to get paid for such labor but never once threw out any numbers. In fact, I’m not otherwise active in the space while remodeling my house, but am preparing seminars for cannabis investors to help them understand TCO and ROI. I’m working with others but will see if I can get you a discount invite to one if you like.
JungleBoys never used the recirculating system. Their drip system is what they originally went with using the Dab pump I referenced, and which I had also seen in other locations as well as in local hydro stores - for a minute.
I believe I also provided at least some value by providing you several CAD layouts with the final source file and much discussion as well as having shared much hard-won knowledge that required many man hours, decades actually - it’s a complete growing method also - and hundreds of thousands of dollars to develop for free.
I notice you changed from your original layout plan to 16 plants/light after that discussion. Not a penny asked for and am still here helping you with understanding drip system issues even though that’s not how I roll. Either way, drip or not, I still recommend a properly engineered system and there are companies who specialize in that for cannabis.
Apologies if I offended, but am only trying to help you succeed. Consider it ‘tough love’.
