Nanook has a thread for you... I'm sure he will be back with a link in a second or search for turnkey in the forum search bud. I think it's right up your street

Thanks for the link, i will have a read after work. I haven't found all the equipment i would need to do the type of system im thinking of yet.
I had a thought that i would use a system to mix the nutes on the fly, then pass to a water chamber to mix, then measure and adjust ph and ec and then pass on to plants, a simple database with the mixing qty wold be easy enough to read off. but like i said, early days in my thought process. I have access to a lot of engineering equipment so its just time i need i think lol.

and .5, you can sshhh lol. I've stopped racing for this project grow lol
Your gonna give Nanook a semi :lol:

i look forward to your thoughts, I love the idea but have no experience with any of the equipment needed so ill just be lurking and learning :D
