do any of you guys think i could attach a 240cfm fan to exhaust out of the ridge vents in this storage area. its hard to see from this pic but the holes up there seam pretty large to me. could i just let the exaust come out right under it or would i have to make some sort of air box? im just worried about moisture build up. and it would be scetchy to add vents where my neighbors can see. i have one 400w light. any help will be great

Its alot better this week mate, it seemed worse when it was cold and humid, now its a bit warmer and humid the cabs are fine. Ill be honest even when its reading high it doesnt seem humid in there, theres certainly no damp at all in the flowering cabs or condensation. As soon as i go to airpots anyway im ill have a bit more room then for a bigger fan:)

Ive decided to chop these down on Sunday, it works out better for me:)
That's good news! I bet the weight is killer eheheheh! Try to document the final product as much as you can if you don't mind dude! Best of luck!

Right the ladies are down:):) First estimate i rekon the freak plant has given me 12oz, the normal lemon haze 4-5 and the runt blue venom 1-2oz. Im just going by last time as this is only my second attempt. Ive got a couple of pics of my best buds:) Im tired now but ill get some pics of my drying nets tomorrow so you can judge what you think ive got:)

I will say though that the freak haze got all of the light, it seemed to take over the hole cabinet. It was like a thick jungle in there so i got plenty of popcorn buds too but i still think im pretty close to 2g per watt of good smokeable bud:)

I found most of the normal haze has turned purple:) The main cola's of these werent so big but again i put this down to the freak haze!! I cant wait to get 5 smaller organic ladies in there.

Yea I desire to see weight here I sent plant photonics and email and no reply anyone know what's up with em??


Im not sure, i emailed Richard a couple of weeks ago and got no reply so i assumed he was really busy. My friend is in contact with him at the moment though as he is having the same lights as me:)

Ill get the drying nets out of the tent tomorrow so i can give you a better look at the overall yeild:):) Im off now for some food!!!

Apparentely there is something to to with far red 720 or 740nm? Something to do with the sunrising and sunset.... some people give a hour of far red first thing in the morning and last thing in the eve? There is a guy on icmag that has experienced one week less flowering than HPS, compared to not using far red flowering was taking one extra week compared to HPS

Sorry dude i missed this before, this info is very interesting thanks. I think ill get intouch with Richard. Did they run the far red for the first hour of the 12 hours and the last hour? Id def be up for maybe another 70 watts of far red if it would speed things up by a couple of weeks.

I havent actually got any scales dude i usually lend my friends when i weigh in but there onlu small. Ill see what i can do though:)

I have learned alot from this grow. The freak haze was way to big for my space, because i had the runt infront of it i was having to tie it down and back into the canopy, this i have now found out stops light getting to lower growth hence i had at least 4-5 oz of fluffly popcorn bud i chopped up for bubble hash with the trim:) Ill be making that tomorrow:)

These 27ltr bubble buckets produce huge plants but i think 4 buckets is to big for my space. I think growing 5 smaller organic plants will really see the true potential of these lights!! Ill have more room to spread them out without them taking up light for other ladies so ill get maximum dank bud:)

Ive learned alot from this second grow, the ladies that im putting into flower tuesday have all had a good prune, especially the RKS because i dont want them over taking any of my OG kush:):)

Im gonna get intouch with richard about getting 70 watts or so of 720 or 740 far red to hopefully speed flowering up. Ill look into it a bit more though first. Man this growing is addictive:)

There is also those reptile infrared bulbs, or the UVA - UVB in case you are interested in that as well. The thing is, if you have cold temps issues, those bulbs cuold come handy, + you woiuld give infrared light or UVB to the plants. I think I will experiment with both at some point soon.

Thanks for that, i know Stealthy uses these bulbs to great affect. Ive got about 12 weeks now to organise something while these next lot are flowering.

I think one of these bulbs would also be good for winter as its going to be cold.

Stealthy mate ive had an idea. Once im organic in pots i will be able to dry my buds in the cabs:) Could i add my spare fan and filter to my flower can plus another intake hole? Im thinking i can have them both on half power then if it gets really humid knock them both up? Im not sure if this will effect how efficient my cabs are?

Right here we go, firstly the freak haze, as this was my best plant ive taken a pic of the rootball and stem, looks the the stem had maybe cracked under the weight while flowering:)

Excuse the pics there the best i can do with my wifes camera. I rekon there is 2oz on each section of the net and there are 6 3/4 full :)

I just finished a cabinet build in a 1940's dresser. 4ft,20",30". 1000w air cooled. Tomorrow I'm building a 1000w air cooled armoire for a 3 plant DWC setup.
