Yes it is, I am loving their entire lineup. The only thing I didn't use this time around was the Nitrogen Boost because by the time I had money to buy the rest of the lineup I was past the N Boost phase. I am really hopeful for the next grow and using the entire lineup for the whole run.

Here's the side with the KaBoom. I really need to thin things out but they're growing 2-3 inches a day.
Here's the mechanical. the dehuey is hanging from the ceiling out of view.
This is what I see when I open the door. The isle in the middle is made each night to water and then they are moved back in.
This is my sealed veg and clone box. There's a 6k AC on the wall. I've been running it doors off/unsealed most of the winter but that will change soon. there are 4 bubba kush, 4 critical plus in 3g smart pots. I also have a 4x12 3x600 sealed flower chamber upstairs with an 8k AC, those 8 ladies will be introduced to it until I have room in the main room in a few weeks.
talk about gear hoarding. in 3 years starting with a single 1k. I now have 5 600w ballasts, 4 1000w ballasts, 1 400 w ballast, 1 cool tube, 4 hoods, 3 fresca sol water cooled fixtures, a chiller, 4 window ACs, 2 dehueys, Ice Box, 3 Co2 detectors, Room controller, 2 Co2 tanks, 2 co2 regulators, Co2 Burner plus all the fans, pumps and needed support.

Nice setup budley. What is your average yield per harvest? Looks like some Sativa in there.

Hey what does everyone think of nighttime temps at 78-80 degrees? Is that cool enough? I have the dehumidifier running at 52% RH and this creates a lot of heat and add to that my garage is around 78 degrees. I can't afford an A/C, or maybe even power it, until I get some more money and probably a place with 220. I am pretty sure I don't have enough amperage left to run an A/C with my current setup so this is about the best I can get it. I am trading off higher temperature for lower humidity and I think that during the last few weeks of flower this is a wise choice but I would like to hear some other opinions.

i have been running without ac this whole time. really no need for it in dego. altho during the summer i still may consider it.

How's this for resin production?

Can you get your humidity lower than that? Towards the end of flower you are gonna want that around 30 or so.. Especially if you live near the coast like some of the other folks around here.

Thanks man! My harvest aren't great .5-.75 gpw in my last setup:
First time in the new setup. Sould know how it goes in 4 weeks. Yes, That's a sativa dominantsubcools kaboom.
Lower is better, but if that's all ya got then I agree your better trading temp for humidity.

2 days?? You are bullshitting. You sprinkled cocaine on those buds. I call shenanigans!How's this for resin production?

I do live near the coast and I can try to get it down but that means that the dehumidifier is going to be running almost nonstop and I am not sure what that will do to my temps.

I forget, what is the magic number that we are going for with the gpw? Is it 1 gpw?

Yeah man, our marine layer is bad juju for humidity issues
As far as the pic above. Seriously. I flipped the switch on 4/20, she was 2 weeks old at the time from sprout. She showed sex 2 days ago

Isnt that where the Co2 is supposed to help?
berkman858
Well-Known Member
Yeah that's what everything I have read and heard says but my leaves are canoeing and my only two culprits for that are heat stress or Mg deficiency. I also raised the CO2 to 2000 PPM so that should help with the high temps and allow me to run the dehumidifier more.
I also added another carbon filter to my tent, this one is on the exhaust fan. That way there is 1 fan/filter scrubbing 24/7 and one on the exhaust fan to get any stray odor molecules. It already seems to be working so I am hopeful.

2000ppm? For why porpavor are you loco in the cabesa?
berkman858

Why the fuck not? I haven't heard anything that contradicts the info that I have which says that you can safely go up to 95 degrees with 2500 PPM so I am just erring on the side of caution and pumping a little extra CO2 in there. I really think I only need around 1800 for 88 degrees but WTF CO2 is cheap.
P.S. - My stupid environmental controller only goes up to 2000 PPM for the setting, but it can read a lot higher because I have seen it somewhere around 3800. I am not sure why it was 3800 but it wasn't like that for long, I think it was just a concentration of CO2 in that particular area where the sensor was.
