How's everything going MrLightgr3en. Started to feel like we lost you there. I am going to do one more flushing and take them down. Then the fun work begins, trimming, drying, curing. Bought a jar attachment for my Food Sealer so I can pull the air out of my mason jars for super fresh storage. The lid acually pops when you open it, like a jar of peanuts.

Sorry for the off topic comment but OI have the seal a meal with jar attachment also and wondered if it would be enough to purge bho? Have you tried it or know what the actual pressure of the unit is?

I unfortunately don't have any experience with the Seal A Meal and I don't know what BHO means. I tried the jar attachment with a empty mason jar and could hear the air suck back in when I removed the lid. The nice thing about the Food Saver system is that you use the mason jar lid when sealing. I don't know the actual pressure.

I only have 2 plants because of the hood design of my light, 400watt HPS Super Sun. I did 4 plants before and they just didn't seem like they got enough light.

Was the lights area not wide enough? How necessary is it to have a cooled hood? is there any way to suck the heat in the light and the smell in the room thru one duct and fan?

I grow in the basement so cooling isn't a issue, my tent maintains 72 degrees with the light on. The light doesn't go wide enough. My next grow I will definately be investing in a carbon filter and a different tent. My tent is a converted ice fishing house.
