I tried to fix all of my air leaks today, hopefully this will run a little smoother now. I added 2 reducers where the vents are to the ducts. It seemed like the ghetto rig I had set up was having too many air leaks and the air flow sucked.
Still waiting for my GL60 to come in, I have a softball game at 7:40 so I doubt I'll be able to pick it up and set it up today. For now those seedlings will stay in there

nice job setting up that shit to cut the leaks. looks really clean. you might think about putting a intake into the room itself. i have a 6 inch valueline centri fan bringing in air and another 6 inch pulling air from the hood to the window with one side of the hood open. this eliminated my high 80s temps i was battling. now the exhaust is close to 78 leaving instead of 88 or 90. ur gona enjoy that GL60 i love my 120 and 20

There is a fan pulling air in but I'm thinking about getting a stronger one. Once I get my GL60 set up I'm probably not going to run the DR120W for about 2 weeks. We built a home made cloner today and I'm going to try to clone my G13 before I flower her. I'm hoping to get my Attitude seeds by then too and throw in my freebies.
I can't wait to get my veg tent, I feel like it's holding me back, lol

I'm gonna go pick up my tent in a couple of hours, the store doesn't open till 11am. Once I pick it up I'm going to transfer all the plans there. Yesterday I posted my 600w ballast on craigslist along with the hood and cord. I'm going to pick up a digital ballast once it's sold.

Hey bro! Looking good. Got a question though? Why do you have the ducting for the cool tube running all the way down to in intake hole? Is there another exhaust port up top that you could use instead? I'm just wondering if the reason it's still staying warm in there, even with the cool tube, is because of that ducting giving off some of the heat it's supposed to be exhausting. That and hot air rises so wouldn't it be more efficient to have the exhaust up higher so the fan has to do less of the work of moving the air?
Just my thoughts brother. Other than those questions i'd say the set up is looking sweet. That Jackie is looking awesome!

Well from what I've read on these tents, the purpose is to pull the "cooler" air outside the tent through that bottom vent, through the bulb and out the top. What I need to do is go from that top exhaust to push the hot air out of my room, possibly through our window. My temps were almost perfect last week because San Diego was cold in general. Now my room is in the high 80's, so no matter what I do to that tent, there is no way I'll ever make that tent cooler than my room. I'm trying to convince my wife that we need a small AC unit in our bedroom to run just a few hours a day so we can keep the room in the 70's.
I need to post up new pics of JH1, that thing is bigger every morning
Quick update on my 'Tude seeds, they're on their way to the good 'ol U S of A

Thanks!! +rep right back. I have seen a full cycle of Blackjack and it got me interested, when I saw that it already had Jack Herer in it, I knew I had to try it!You won't go wrong with that blackjack!

Good thing I'm not looking to make a living on this so I'll have plenty to smoke when it's all said and done

I'll need to post some pics of Bajamed B (BMB) and JH3 side by side, they look almost identical, the leaves, the growth. I'm almost positive that BMB is another Jack Herer. JH1's leave's are finally starting to stretch out a little more and looking more like a sativa, Delilah's leave's are thin like a true sativa.
Bajamed A is a mutant, some kind of super short indica with short fat leaves. More pics soon

The GL60 should be up and running after another beer and bong hit, the DR120W is going to get shut down until flowering time. I'm going to switch to a 200w CFL and throw in a few small one's around it to keep them vegging until it's time to flower. Pics up soon
So far I like the way the GL is built better than the DR, but the zipper system on this GL is a little annoying, I have to zip it 3 different ways just to get to my plants, with the DR it's one big zip and I'm there

I believe the intake is at the bottom of the tent, and it passes through the cool tube, and exhausts through the top, so technically the air coming in at the bottom should not be as hot as the exhaust after it passes through the cool tube.
