Not sure what your outside temps are but all I do is turn my vent fan on higher. This drops temp and humidity. I get 35% rh and 62f. I guess if your in a warm climate not so easy to do.
...That's one of those things that you read and have to pretend you didn't read. Lol, joking but serious.
Yes!, I will!.. PH, I’ve learned from @Renfro is almost everything. I truly believe that 90% of people’s problems are PH related. If it’s out of range, no matter what you do, it ain’t gonna fix it.
No way, TF. The answer is always CalMag.

Your healthy Useful grow inspired me to order 3 packs of Useful fems today, Diggs. I see you have expanded nicely, well done.

I've got Root Excelurator Gold for the potting soil/veg state this coming run. I want my roots growing great fast this time, lol.

Day 28 BOO

Amor si 3ml
Calimagic 4ml
Micro 4ml
Bloom 6ml
Roots 1ml

5.8-6.2

Lots of training going on. Constantly tying down and manipulating beaches to spread them out. All were topped last week.

Everything seems good, the runt is looking better and better each day. The other 3 are bushing out real nice. Soon ready to take the clones.

Thanks LG

When I was growing in tent I just used the passive intake vents and it was fine. This new room is sorta sealed up, so when the exhaust kicks in to vent heat, the intake fan also kicks on at same time to fill the room with fresh air. Also helps with cooling as I run my lights during night time.
Dude, I've been thinking about this (your room setup) for the last day or so. I'm still just confused. I duno if it just works out because of your particular setup/region, etc., or what. Haha.

I'm considering suggesting it to someone but I can't see past the co2 thing. You have a dehumidifier, so that'll take care of humidity whether the room had air exchange or not. You have an exhaust fan that doesn't constantly run, it's set to control the temp only - kicking on the exhaust the room at a set high temperature. That sounds good.
I'm just wondering if the lack of co2 and not constantly exchanging air with fresh air/co2 (or at least a minimum amount of times per day, or something?) is actually made possible solely due to the co2 being produced by you/others in the house breathing, and that being brought in (in what amount?) to the room when the room happens to be exchanging air.

In case anyone else has some insight..
My concern with this setup (in general, not for diggs99, he's cruisin'), if it weren't obvious, is that - for example: A room is setup in this manner, and normally it reaches the high temp point of say 85*F several times a day, causing the fan(s) to come on and exchange the air until the temp drops to the low set point of say 81*F. Well maybe one particular day or season or whatever, the room doesn't quite reach 85*F (especially if the room isn't fully sealed, and well insulated), and therefore the exhaust fans that usually activate based on a high temp don't come on at all (or maybe only once that day), so now that room gets no co2 introduced to it.
That's just an example. Without a co2 monitor I'd feel super blind as to what's going on. Low co2 only presents itself as...slow growth right? I'm talking below ambient (350-500ppm). So it might be very hard to diagnose*.

I'm getting very interested in sealed rooms (and semi sealed rooms) lately, haha. Not interested in pumping in 1500ppm of co2, interested in a sealed room with consistent environment, reasonable co2 level - supplementation if required.

Thanks.

I cant really explain the science behind it , i just know it works lol.

My fans are constantly kicking on and off throughout lights on tho, so always air exchanging in the room. I set my temps at 84.5.....the room hasnt been running for a few weeks since its gotten real cold, so what your saying might def come into play when i do start the room up again here soon, my basement ambient is 72-75 tho, so chances of the room never hitting 84.5 at lights on are prob slim.

Im gonna buy a co2 moniter just to see whats up, because your right, up until now my setup/climate have worked perfectly together , lucky for me because otherwise i have no way of truly knowing whats going on with co2 in the room without a moniter lol

We run a passive intake, and non passive exhaust. I have a timer set to kick on the intake during lights on, and off during lights off. The AC takes care of things pretty well when lights are off ( night time)

Maybe compare some prices with 'controllers', if you do consider a co2 monitor of some kind. Some monitors looks to be almost as expensive as some more capable devices.

Day 32 BOO

Soon time to pick a winner and take clones for the aero system.

Everything seems to be cruising along nicely.
Not sure if it’s been discussed yet, but imo you should take 2-3 cuts from each girl and then by the time they root and start to grow out of their first baby pots you should be able to tell a bit better which plant is nicest. Unfortunately you’d have to do basically a full second run if you want the smoke though. But I would take a cut from each and give yourself at least 3 weeks into flower to decide :)

Can we get a side shot of them to see branching? I’m liking the girl on the left right now, seems the poofiest.

Looking healthy though! Happy New Years!

This entire run is based off taking clones for my new aero system, i want clones from the same pheno for obv reasons(feeding,structure )

i mentioned my plan back a couple of posts ago.

the reason im taking all cuts from 1 pheno is to keep everything the same for the aero run. The rest will all be flowered accordingly, ill take clones from each of the other 3 , once all 4 are done, if anything is worth keeping, ill keep the corresponding clones.


Thanks for popping by and reading tho :)

Lol we probably had this convo like a page or two ago I’m out of it right now :eyesmoke:

Which girl are you leaning towards as of now?

edit: oh I see, you are still taking clones of the other 3. Got it now. :bigjoint:

@diggs99 Where'd you get the 2020 aluminum extrusion? Pretty hard to find at a reasonable price, but it looks like for your build not much was required.
