How do you water the plants in the back considering it looks like it's a soil grow? Isn't that a 6X6 tent?

Well the BBC were over in the Dam last week making a documentry about medical mj, so you never know....

To me it sounds like the way to go, even if there is more grey area, it is grey area that is moving towards the light. The government need to be involved no matter what, it's them that make the law. People growing, selling and in the business should in some respects all benefit. Big business will make big crops, but then look at alcohol, wine, etc, there are millions of producers from small holdings up to large industry, all making a living.

It all sounds hypocritical to me after all federal law still classes weed as a schedule 1 drug, how can the government profit from taxes of a substance that they say has no medical benefit? On the other hand i wish we had the chance to vote on something like this in the UK even medical weed would be a forward step here.

Move 4 pots from the middle and use The Ghetto Watering System. Takes about 10 minutes to water all of them and i get a nice Tan on the back of my neck.

Very true.

 

[Dezracer]

Glad to hear I'm not the only one that feels the effects of the lights after being in there with the plants fo a bit.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

thanks wormdrive man! after all the hype i came in and went to do the switch n the frigging lights had done off, stupid daylight saving time guess im going to be late for work

 

[Dezracer]

Last night I was in and out of the room for about an hour and afterward I could feel the top of my head burning a bit (bald ass M F'er). It's a little pink today. LOL.

I thought we were making progress when we down graded to class C but then in their infinite wisdom they put it back to B, mind you when it was down graded to class C they increased the penalties for possession with intent to supply class C to the same as B, then they forced prof Nut (UK drug czar) to quit because he dared to criticise they're decision, i think attitude are changing just very slowly.

I put my fan right on top of the filter and push the air through my hoods and out. I had to slow down the fans as it was working too well.

Which filter is that and what's the CFM rating of your fan? It looks like the one I have, Can 33, but can't tell for sure and would consider trying that route too if it will save me having to run another fan and cut another hole.

It's the 38 Special filter rated at 400cfm. The fan is a Hydrofarm 440cfm if i remember right (Freakin Stoner)

 

[Dezracer]

The 33 is rated at 200 CFM for exhaust and 400 CFM for scrubbing according to the box so I have been hesitant to hook up the other fan since it would put the CFM at 500 before figuring loss for the filter's restriciton. Right now it's one fan rated at 250 CFM pulling the air through everything just as Don has his. It cools the one light just fine but don't think it'll keep temps in check with both running. Not sure it'd be good to pull the air through the filter that fast either (500CFM).

This is theoretical CFM though figuring that if two fans rated at 250 CFM were connected in a 'Y' to a single 6" duct. I'm not sure it all adds up like that since I'm not an engineer. There might be some loss involved so it may be lower than 500.

 

[Heads Up]

not really posible to put the can at the other end ( it wont fit in the airbrick ) fresh air in isnt really the issue the fans powerful enough to draw in from the room its the smell thats the issue.

im going to try putting the new fan directly next to the can and keep the setup as is cos the other way ill have to cut a new hole in the tent to run the two lines. that should make the filter the most effective it can be and keep the airflow good and high.

its all going to be a very sketchy affair anyway cos if it doesnt work well enough ill be pumping some stinky air out

Don, try this, keep your filter as is, short piece of duct from filter to fan. From fan, another short piece of duct to light and push air through your lights and out. I have read it is actually better for your fan to push air through the lights rather than have the heat from the lights pulled through your fan. The whole thing is to suck air through the filter, the lights don't care if you are pulling or pushing air through them.

DST, the dehumidifier, beside digital, I would recommend one that you can hook up a drain line to and not one where you are using an internal tank that has to be emptied and will shut the unit off if filled. I ran a short piece of tubing from mine and let it drip into a five gallon bucket, I only have to empty it every several days.

ive been doing some readin omn the whole prop 19 thing and it sounds like the feds will stomp all ve it anyway. it looks to me like theyll be introducing a lot more penalties not giving the freedom that most think it will of being able to buy pot in a store. and if will make it a fellony to grow in your house if you have kids there. how many families is that going to destroy. im not downing anyone that chooses to grow in their home with a child there ( FDD said he did it incidentally in another thread.) but voting for something that could potentially put you in jail and leave your family without the provider, i wouldnt vote for if you paid me.

just my 2 bob peeps.
re the airflow and the ratings on the fans i have no freakin clue. i dont think it can all be calculated by cfm and airflow cos the strains i have in there smell like nothing ive grown before. its well over the top. anyway ill be switching tomorrow when hopefully the rain stops and the neighbours have gone to work...

have a good evenin 600

thanks man

IMO It adds more Regulation and More gray area, Do we really need More Government Regulation? I think not.......

yes in way i think. but if it passes any one over 21 wil be bale to use legaly right? instead of just patients, so that would be a lesser of a restriction. But then it is going to be just like alcohol in a way and regulated like that. and no i really dont think we need more gov. regulations. im just putting in my opinions, im not aware of what prop 19 fully is, i read alot about it but not every thing on it

I have to agree with mcpurple on this one. Since I don't live in the golden state, I am hoping you folks who do will pass prop 19. Do we need more government regulation? Do we need for this country to continue it's current marijuana laws? If I have to take some government regulation in order to not get busted growing, I'll take it, it's better than the current alternative. We in the rest of the country are looking towards california to once again live up to its progressive reputation and pass prop 19, for the sake of the rest of the country.

prop 19 isnt perfect but its a huuuuge step in the right direction. 20 years ago (i wasnt even around) if you heard of prop 19 you would probably say, "yeah right my ass, not in a million years". well look at the times now. we're coming upon a boiling point; prop 19 is fuel for the fire

thanks bru, will keep that in mind, great tip!!!!

[Heads Up]

Dez, the only thing about a Y adapter and two fans, will it create an imbalance in air flow and have negative effects? If worse came to worse for guys who use tents, is it possible to use the filter as a scrubber only? Set the filter on the floor of the tent and just run a piece of duct out of the tent to the fan which would sit outside the tent sucking air through the filter, don't even run it through your lights. Then again you would need another fan for the lights with that setup.

 

[Heads Up]

Just trying to help out my brothers with info I have garnered from all my reading.

All this talk of fans and filters, my new phresh filter arrived today. I'll be using it as a scrubber in my room. I'm just gonna' sit the can on the floor, sit the fan on top of the can and turn it on and let it blow right back into the room, hopefully with no aromas attached.
