Justin steal away..i had the unit left over from a hot ass condo i used to live at.. i payed 150-300 cant remember so long ago..this type of unit pumps way more cold air into a grow than a portable i give a fuck wut those portables say for btu's. only remember wherever the ass is facing is gonna be heated. works great in a garage like mine..would suk if the ass wuz pointed into a live in bedroom..would be noisy and hot not bearable.
thought so.. good idea. im gonna have to steal it.
plants are def. looking chunky.. given me some ideas for when i re-do my ish...

waiting is always the hardest part... everyday i go in and look and just want to cut em down and smoke em... then i think "well even after harvest i still have another couple weeks" and then i get REAL antsy.. no matter how many grows i do i still feel the same way... its like christmas every few months.. hopefully once i get on a perpetual cycle the impatience will wear down a little... cause i dont know if i could be this antsy every 60 days... but i have a feeling i will...

so what was happened last curing that makes you worry about it??

its great when you walk into your grow room from outside it and get blasted with that first wiff of sweet smelling ganja... as stinky and crystally as mine are, i couldnt imagine yours... the trich production has to be insane... DAMN I WANT MY LIGHTS ALREADY!! do you get a skunky smell or more of a sweet smell for your girls?? are you going to do anything for odor control here soon?? i have my carbon filter running on high at this point... dont need it quite yet as the real potency of the odor is still to come, but i figure why not... its already there.. might as well use it.. lol

hell yea. exactly.i was thinking running it into the basemant stairwell. kus thats where im at, but inside the apartmant part of the basemant. all finished and shit... and then putting the 2400W in like a 10'x5' room. with its outer wall the stairwell... those portable ones suck. i had one. they look nice, like robots. but are ass....

yea speaking of carbon filter... my neighbor told me my shit was stinking real bad outside, and i didnt know kus im always smokin. but im about to get a huge carbon filter.. or plant lavender. lol

ya i hear u..but i dont trust those seedbank quotes for nothing. seems like they dont account for final flusing or curing.

simpsonsampson..i had my current lights supporting a hydro grow bout 2yr back in my last house. it was bagseed..and i waz real bad about proper rez techniques and feeding..ph..among other negitive things..funny thing was it looked dank as hell..i let it go till it was done like 9-10 weeks..i chopped completly right be4 lightson time..hung in a seperate room.w/ string. didnt moniter rh in the hanging room, and no fan..i let it hang for bout a week, and then trimmed. (i know i know guys). i got like a half pound of seedless swag. it tasted and smelled like str8 alfalfa. let me make it clear.. my plan as of now, is to cut down, in same manner, but trim immediatly. then hang, but have a rh meter nearby, and a fan , and only for 24-48 hrs. then jar them and cure for 1-2 weeks, opening jars every couple hours and hand waving them and drying jar lid. sound right? any new ideas i can incorporate to new curing plan ..let me have it


Im getting that sweet fruity smell especially if i touch them and then my figures are like superglued
Ill eventually add a carbon filter to the air cooled lights. but not till i c neighbors trippn..its legal so unless its so potent its disturbing the peace i figure fuk it



sounds like a great idea..a/c is loud but then its not.. like my exhaust squirl fan u can hear from outside my house..whether u can tell wut it is i dont know. ..but my a/c is blaring load right at the unit but when u close the door to the garage u cant hear a damn thing..so i think the under the stairs idea will work fucking sick..itll be load as hell if u go under the stairs, but silent from outside of the enclosure.

sounds good broe... i basically do the same thing... cut down.. trim... hang to dry... usually 4-7 days... somewhere in there... jar em.. burp em a few times a day for about a week... then they are usually good to go... but really once i pull them down from drying, im good to go then... i mean, i have to taste it daily, at least 5 or 6 times, to see how its progressing... usually its about perfect when the jar is empty... then i have to start all over with another jar.... :eyesmoke:

its hard saying how long to hang them... pretty much i hang them till the shoot breaks easily when bent... if you time it out and harvest on a day you would normally water it can take a day or two off drying time too... and especially when buds as thick as you'll have you want to make sure there is enough moisture that has transpired from the bud that it doesnt mold or anything in the jar... id say give them at least 4 days.... but lets see how big they end up!!!

how'd it taste this morning?

so i did some spring cleanin this morn..cleaned out the garage..with my girls help..its mainly her stuff. im going to build some sort of small veg room in the garage..next to my bloom room. i have a bunch of cfl's, but im not seein the rapid growth i see, when there vegged under mh.or hps. so i might buy yet another smaller HID to run over a picnick table . i was thinking about a open non stealth picknick table veg grow in the garage..maybe a 250wHID..hmm
still gott a pick up the 1000watter tommorow and put that in.

i say if you can and want to why not! like you said the bigger the grow the bigger the job... but it also means more mandtitory time with the girls... plus its a GREAT excuse to use to get away from the gf for a while... if you set that up lil veg room are you gona leave enough room for clones also and maybe a mother?? cant wait to see it lit up with that 1000w added in...

yeah...def going w/ 1000w mon morning its goin in and you'll get ur pics.

on veg i decided to build 3 stages of shelving of the back wall of my 7x7 enclosure... and have space acordingly for the different sizes from clone to moms..not sure of the lighting yet...i have tons of cfls already, but they dont seem to grow w/ the kind of speed my hps does for em..

ya i hear ya. my wife gets tierd of the big lights so i tried the cfl's for veg, but i yanked them basterds out and hooked up mt 400wtt mh just for that reason, faster growth.:hump:

i wish i had the space to compare the growth rate a 400w mh to one of the floros i use... they are similiar lumen outputs... and for what mine lacks in penetrating power it makes up in by being able to be so close... hmmm.. i wonder if i could fit a 400w'er in my veg room?????

I did a 2) 200 watt cool white for veg, and 2) 200 watt warm whites for flower. Not grown in coco grown in rubbermaid.

Now I have 600 watt HPS.

Differences:
Fan leaves much larger before flower w/Fluro
Bud sites / branches not nearly as strong w/ fluro

I thought too well since you can run the fluro right off the top of the plant you can maybe gain an advantage of less lumen loss there. But from my current grow I openly admit I wasted a bunch of money on those CFLs should have went 600HPS right off the start. However, My CFL grow did alright I got 51gm out of two plants and it was excellent bud. but Im going to stomp a hole in that figure with this HPS system. I may add in the fluors in the hard to reach shady places or so, so they definitly arent just getting tossed in the trash.
