Not bad, I hope the ones that are left treat you well };)

it's 24 X 42 inches. i was just out there. my flower room is almost open. maybe 1 more week. if i were to have to veg any longer than a week more i think i would have to throw up the second 250. right now i have 1 250w MH with 14 plants in 1 gallon pots and 9 in cups or cup sized pots. so i have 23 plants under there right now. oh, and my 2 cacti. :mrgreen:

ha ha cant forget about that special mtf cactus. lol
what types of cactus are they? mea like san pedro.....
cool. im gonna have to find a cheap mh to use so i can keep a better mother room/veg area. but i can keep it small wattage by looking @ your veg area. I was thinking that i was gonna have to go with 400-600 watts of mh and didnt wanna fork out that much $ for the elec bill.
they are raping us with that thing here in the boonies because we are so far away from town (they charge 5% more if not in the city limits. bullshit!)

i saved those cuttings. now i have a tray started. damnit, overgrowing again.:evil:






let the fun begin. my flower room is open. i have all these starters ready to go in. my buddy called today and said he had a bunch of hindu kush to flower. about 30 of them that he doesn't need. i can probably take 16 or 17 but i had to make a few changes. second light should be here tonight. once i get the light i'll run to the store and get the final supplies. i'm going to cover the front with panda plastic and put in a zippered door. then T into my exhaust for the new light and i'm done. :blsmoke:

i'm going to keep them on 18/6 until i fill the room and get the second light. i have no wall at the moment and light leaks could become an issue. light just came on so i hooked up the exhaust and lowered it. i have the glass on my light. :blsmoke:

that is going to be bad ass once finished.


i've thought about making my own tent....but i just cant picture it in my mind without it looking too fragile, 'budget' and at the same time not too complex or doing too much.

your setup/area looks perfectly simplistic... lol and that is whas up. it doesnt look like it took you long or that many materials/monies. but still looks productive and nice

sorry if you said it before in the post, but what are the dimensions of that cab/tent/whatever you call it

made it with a hand full of 2 x 4's and a few brackets. home depot has a bracket for every need. corners, 45's, 90's........ it measures just over 6 feet tall, 6 feet wide and 3 feet deep. just make a box and cover it in plastic or panda film. i put a sheet of 3/4 plywood on top so i can screw hooks anywhere into the ceiling i desire. i can easily mount my fan and lights and i have storage on top for ballasts and blankets. :mrgreen:
