Thanks bro, I should be finished up here soon I just picked up all my equipment im about to post some pics in a second. I live in Michigan and there are two main labs that test samples for around $40 Iron Labs llc and MI Canalytics . . . . . I dont know if you have to be certified but I am, I get my testing done through the Dispensary that I do business with, If they like your product they'll pay for testing.

Good luck and be safe.

The medical shop that I serve my weight just started testing at sc labs, but I haven't had a harvest since I started. 40$ isn't bad, I saw sc labs was charging up to $330 for the mold test, pesticide test and potency test.
Hopefully a 36000 unit will cover the 6 lights. I have a couple raptor hoods as well. If the seal on it isn't completely flush it'll whistle if you got a blower hooked up.

You haven't had a harvest since you started!? Why not? . . . $330 is outrageous, $40 they do mold, pesticide, potency and moisture. . . . Yeah i'll have a few blowers set up, and yeah that same whistling sound happens with my current hoods. . . . how do you like the raptor hoods?

Oh yeah and 36,000 btu should be sufficient especially since the lights will be air cooled . . . . .I heard 4,000 btu per light is some sort of rule of thumb, I dont know how true that is but im pretty sure itll be enough.

Lol, no I haven't harvested since my shop started tested the meds.
As far as the ac goes
my rule of thumb is 5000 per thousand and 3 for 600'. But I bet yours works just as good lol.
I don't use hoods anymore.

Barebulb? You got light shielding glasses? I'd be worried about your eyes if not.

I normally busy out the sun glasses and put snowboarding goggles over that. The goggles are ment to prevent snow blindness alone but with the sunglasses it's that much better on your eyes. Yeah I'm doing it vertical right now. I got about 4 1/2 weeks left till harvest. I just start a perpetual, so I'll be harvesting 30 per 3 weeks. I got a thread going but I need to update it, I haven't updated it in a week thou. I'll do it today.

Is the vertical thing just an experiment? Or is that what your sticking with?

Quick update, the ladies are looking beautiful! Im happy with how things are going right now, no deficiencies or signs of pests and the growth is great also. I put up my equipment tomorrow and then I'll end up moving these plants to flower in about 2 weeks. I don't know if I mentioned this already, but im pretty sure I have. Im running Holy Grail Kush, LSD, 818 Headband, Pineapple Express and Confidential Cheese for this run. I will be posting some harvest pics of the 818, Pineapple Express and HGK tonight as well (from my other room) they will be uploaded to my other thread in my sig. but on to the pictures and thanks for looking.

Edit: lol . . . . I have to cut some holes in the ceiling to put of some support between the main studs because I know the drywall cant hold my hoods up . . . . and also I forgot to mention that I have 1 Buddah Tahoe OG going also, its the tallest one in the pic of 818 HB and Confidential Cheese. . . . Once again thanks for looking.
