    Shouldn't be a prob. that's an amazingly huge system, do you have resources to fill that tower?

    Aye Carrumba! How coulda I missed this! Hey Thightbuds, you still here? Get a little ac goin in there and you wont regret it! Your manuals rite on target. Actually the best thing you can do for your colliseum at this point is get your self a chiller. Itl cost you bout 3 times as much as a small window ac unit but your room temps aint that far off. Your ambient room temps aint gonna fukk you up so much as your root zone temps and I can garentee you that if your rez temps are at 72 to 78 your root zones are significantly higher. What you gotta do is drop your rez temps to the point where it makes your root zone temps stay below 68f. The root zone temps are critical when your growin with aero. Constructivly, aeroponics dont work without root zone temps below 72f. 72f is bout the threshold on that. Your root zone temps in an aero system should always be between 62 - 68f. Its ashame the folks who sell these aero systems dont tell you up front that their units dont work well without a chiller. Getcherself a chiller Thightbuds, in your case its a beter option than an ac unit.
