What's the smell in you're room son? Mom... it's just dirty socks, I swear!

I just picked up 4 more QB's -- this time QB96's to try and run as much as possible on QB's to try and keep temps down. I'd still like to find a place to plug in some air-cooled HPS use either during the middle weeks of flower to bulk up the buds ... hmm. I was between these two options: I...

So you're suggesting keeping the external climate outside the tent comfortable? I have additional dehumidifiers and will have to use the room's air conditioning to provide external environmental atmosphere if that's what you mean? How did your temps get so high? Did you have a climate...

How high did your temps get? What type of lights were you using? I believe with CO2 at the right humidity you can go upwards of 95 degrees F.

That sounds about right if you're shooting for 8 plants; about one every 2 sq foot and growing with soil over hydro (since it takes slightly longer).

@TintEastwood is this question to me or @DemonTrich ? For myself I have two new 30 pint units of these small skinny mini units with external water hose drainage: I also have Titan Saturn 6 Controllers in case heat goes above the dead band. Humidity should be okay since there's a dehumidifier...

White Widow is a great strain for high yield and quick flower. The more obvious question is how many plants are you looking to grow? For peak production you should consider SCROG or SOG depending upon your space allowed for cloning. If you have the veg space to clone lots of plants, go for...

Get a $30 humidifier off eBay at least 1 gallon in size. 5 liter + is best. That way you can dial your humidity level to the desired RH % with the help of your temp/humidity meter and not have to refill the unit for at least 2 days hopefully. I have a smaller one for a clone and early veg 4x4...

I asked the guy at the local Hydro shop yesterday and he said that he recommends trying to leak proof a tent with HVAC tape and around unused zipper area's but he said that a 20 lb CO2 tank should last a month with a tent, which isn't terrible. He recommended not opening the tent needlessly and...

My corners are weak at the moment. Even with two HPS and 2 HLG 324V2's. Take a peek:

Thanks guys. Just ordered 8 of these QB144 boards. They should be perfect for the corners at 50-60 watts each.

You thinking Alibaba?

HLG started selling new QB144 V2 mini boards. They are sold 4 for $125 and I'm thinking they would be perfect in the corners of the tent to help even out the light spread. They do not sell these with heat sinks however. It looks like these are the same size board as the QB96's. I'm wondering...

@Xs121 Looking good bro! Out of curiosity -- how much light do you use? One doesn't want to get too close to the light saturation point. This is for SOG tent grow with CO2. Do you grow LED?

I wonder why more people don't eventually try and convert to hydro because of stuff like this? Lots of people worry about their lights but then grow in soil pots with slower growth, decreased harvests, and issues mentioned above.

Even if you duct tape all the air exchanges down? I was going to use a fan to blow air in and see where it tries to escape to tape down any pin holes, etc. ? What do you think about the light / lux foot print?

I think the QB96 is more impressive in my opinion. The 144 board is affordable but there's no heat sink included. People must like these mini QB's. My guess is that they're trying to tap into the COB market with these hybrid boards. I most like their QB 324 V2's for combined light spread and...

Nah... it's just one of those cheapo chinese pens. It was like a $7 pen. I'm pretty sure the watch batteries cost more than the entire cost of the pen. Decided to go Apera 5-in-1 on account of you and @mnmobbin

@reggie1387 yours look more sativa than SWIM. SWIM is growing two varieties of THC Bomb; Widow Bomb (White Widow x THC Bomb) and Gorilla Bomb (GG#4 x THC Bomb). The Widow Bomb being slightly more Indica with the Gorilla Bomb being a little more Sativa leaning. These strains have amazing...

Just purchased an Apera 5-in-1 with solution kit on account of this thread. Tired of my cheapo Chinese pen having huge pH swings even as I'm calibrating it... Grr Literally last week I had one solution of 4 pH solution perfectly measured and at the perfect temp and the 7 pH solution. Of course...
