Hope that worked.. These ladies are 5days into 12/12 and were vegged for 5 1/2 weeks from seed.. Yes they're purple erkel yes they're from seed and yes it is possible so please no debates.. They're currently in an enclosed 7' long 6ft tall 3 1/2ft deep room with temps 81day and 65night (workin on it) I'm using ffof soil and only age old for ferts (gro and bloom) they're under a 250wm/h and am using a homade carbon filter (will get into it later on how it was done) with a dual window fan with independent settings (one intake one exhaus suckin and pushing air just stuffed the filter into the ventalation.(Pics will be posted soon) my rh is unknown (any cheap suggestions?) But I live where the avg is about 90perc. So I need to do something as its calyxes are swellin quick. Since 12/12 I have narrowed it down two males which have since been handeled and one suspected (and weak) hermie. The other three are approaching 4ft. Too big really. I started lst but they wouldn't take (seriously anything I used the worked they're way out. So ull notice their weird shape. Lol the light is a floralux and is aircooled via the before mentioned fan.(Worked remarkabley for a low cfm fan) though the filter kinda slowed it up. Anyhow I tend to ramble so ill stop but any and all CONSTRUCTIVE Comments and good jobs always welcom till the update... Peace and smoke

Carbon filter.. My take on it at least. I can't say its new but hope it helps...

You will need

2 "bio bags" one XL and one large they're reuseable filter bags for fish tanks about2.50 at petco

One or two cans of activated carbon not sure I think 3or4 bucks a piece

Three paper clips (they're all I could fin that wouldn't restrict airflow)

Take the smaller of the bags and fill it with carbon about 1/4 inch from the top squeezing the sides so it is cylindrical but don't pack it u want air to flow through next I fill the larger bag about 1/4 full tape the topr and hit it with a hammer a couple times (not neccesary. Untape the bag now take ur first paper clip and bend it straight then make multiple kinks in a zig zag desing and weave this through ur smaller bag to seal the top.. Once sealed flip over and slide into bigger bag containing the powder pour remainer of carbon or what fits in the larger bag now use the two other clips in the same fashion stuff it in the fan and turn it on.. Its proven effective so far.. And these girls stink. Hope this helps.. Btw almost my entire grow is diy hit me up if u need help with anything of the bature I'm a king of riggin shit out of shit u have layin around. Peace and smoke

Also should mention I am not by any means a newb to this but this is my first indoor attempt as my new neighbors don't seem medical friendly (we just moved a few months back) so I get some new clones for the new house harden them up and put them outside, doing good and about a week later I com outside to beat up plants( found bamboo shutes on the ground) they decided to beat my medicine into the ground and set me dealing with shady thugs for two and a half months just to keep pain tolerable ( which on one occasion ended up causing me more pain) so I moved it indoors as I'm a peaceful man for the mostpart and try to love thy neighbor. Not break him in half like he did my ladies as nice as it would be that cocksucker... Sorry end rant. Thanks for stoppin in lol

Ttmft new a few new pics added some node shots for yóu pervs the enclosure with ( took half of it down for the pic) and my personal favorite baby buds! Please check out and feel free to comment... I know clicking that link sucksm haha

Peace and smoke

Bump startin to see bud pics up prolly tomorrow

20 views and no replies? I must be doing somethin right if no one sayin anything...? Lol adding pics to the album in the link in just a few so far the biggest nug is about nickel size a round and lookin like a furry ass bouncy ball but off four females I'm counting 21 main or at least large cola sites.. Maybe ill get some good quantity this time.

Bump cause I can

Bump! New pics up a power outtage proved a good opp to flip the lighting sched.so they're on at night for the sake of temps so they had a looonnngg night but they took it well they almost doubled in nug size enjoy! (Click link in 1st post) and please comment its lonely in here

Bump new pics up and a revised set up made a ghetto ass fort out of mylar shits balla. And I need the help of the masses I have 1 branch on one plant with issues the last five pics posted are of the leaves I found a weird ass white crusty shit all over the underside of a leaf (3rd) pic I think abd don't recall blowin any nuts on my plants so idk wtf it is HELP I don't need these fuggers dying 2weeks into flower

nice setup its very similar to mine, I'm attemping my first indoor grow with FFOF/Age Old Organics too =) Except I'm using Floralux 250w HPS all the way. I can only hope my ladies are as sexy as yours!

EDIT: does your lamp have a built-in ballast?

Looks like nute burn on the last few pics but dont take my word for it. Is the white shit only on the lower leaves? It might be salt buildup from the soil

EDIT: Where did you get your dual window fan? I'm using a floor fan right now but it's a little big for my taste

It was on any leaf on that one branch and its a lower branch but wasn't touchin the soil idk I'm not too worried as my other three ladies are thriving. As for the window fan 38.98 at fred meyer. I would reccommend two if u plan to do what I did as they don't have crazy cfm or anything,, they will work very nice in a pinch

Yes its a connected ballast. drives me nuts but its actually not to heavy and stays nice and cool) I use a 250mh floralux with"high yield lighting" by agromax or somethin not exact but it works damn good for 70bucks.
Btw ur my hero lol thank u for takin the time to check em out and even more for ur comments they're greatly appreciated.. Til the update peace and smoke

sounds like we have the same lamp/reflector, i got mine from HTGSupply for $99

i wonder if a MH conversion bulb would work in mine, ive seen good results with hps only but i'd like to try mh

I would suggest 2x500 watt dual arcs. I got a buddy growin with this setup and I'm liking what I see so far

how are the ladies doin? does the white shit come off when you rub the leaves?

Not a whole lot of white yet it seems to show up in the fifth week or so but they smell like fruity pebbles and hashy diesel its awesome pics up in a few (well added to photobucket if anyone knows a way to get them on here from a blackberry it would be greatly appreciated +rep for sure)

Bump added new pics of the problem(s)? Any advice would be killer.. Also threw a little nuggie pic in there cause it seemed neccesary

Haha just finally got sober enough to actually read that the white shit scrapes off but it takes some effort its almost like someone slung wall putty on the bottom of a couple of them which I have none of in my house so it couldn't be that lol

Bed time bump
