Ok, cleaned up the bottom a bit and mounted my powerstrip in a way that I like. Here is an upside down view of the setup so far.
The only thing left is the mylar and lights. I should finish the lights today. The mylar or my seeds haven't arrived yet.
I test fitted the boxes and they are getting some really good airflow!
Due to this I decided to cut the boxes down a bit so that they take up less of my space. I did this on the intake box first, and it still seems to get really good airflow. Ii am showing a pic of both boxes which were...
I've got my light traps done. They are taking up more space than I anticipated. The larger one sticks out enough that I will only have 10 inches of grow space from front to back. I hope this is sufficient.
Due to the size of my light traps, I am worried about interference with my lights...
Ok, I managed to find something that I am semi-happy with. At least these sit level.
I may add a reflector at some point, or change the anchor.
I will be getting some more chain so that I can use the other set of hooks I have and screw them in the back wall. This will allow for easy...
Got my fans all installed and wired up. I chose to mount the fans on the outside of the box. I figured this will give the air a little more room to make the bend around the light trap. I also like how much cleaner it is on the outside as far as wiring goes.
I am using two Exhaust and one...
Here is my idea for the Hood/light fixture. I had this thought when I was in the store, but didn't act on it. I will go buy one more of these pipes and stitch them together to make my hood longer.
But here is the idea.
So I've just been working on getting the dresser together. Now, you know how a dresser is structured, but that wouldn't work for me as I need front door access. So all of the shelves were not going to be used. Instead I constructed a bit of a door on the front so I would have good access to...
Howdy all. I am going to give a go at my first Grow Box and Indoor grow in the upcoming weeks. The plan is a stealth box, constructed with a dresser. The grow will be using CFLs and the plant will be Northern Lights from Nirvana.
Now while I wasn't trying to produce the least expensive setup...
I'm not even sure what that means. I am a very casual type grower the first 2 seasons I've done it. Next year I surely will do better. But I literally just have taken throw away seeds, potted them in Jiffys.... and transported them to soil, given them water, kept the males at bay and that's...
I don't know if I should stop transporting my plants directly into the ground and find smaller pots so that I can limit the size that way? I love the way the plants grow in the ground.
The only problems I've ever had with the rain was during the early phases, when the plants were really tiny. I've had episodes were some really heavy rain would pretty much knock over and beat my small plants to death... literally.
But I've had looong perioids of rain with little sunlight with...
Funny you mention that... if I had a different picutre I did just that... my tallest plants have one hell of a lean to them.
But I added it in my first post, are there certain strains that only grow a certain height?
Not that it matters for this year... but for obvious reasons for outdoor growing I am wondering if it is possible to control the height of your plants?
Other than 'timing,' by trying to plant according to how much time you have left in the season, is it possible.
Say you wanted to limit...
To be on the safe side, and not really having anywhere to put the males, I pulled them. I had 2 that I can recognize so far. They were both about 5.5 feet. :(
Bag seeds aren't bad. But of course you get what you pay for..... I... or erm someone I know did this last year. And out of 9 plants to start..... 2 of them grew to be 9 feet tall, but it wasn't marijuana. Now I don't know what it was? The beans looked like the others planted, but some...
