Getting my cooled hood delivered tomorrow quick question tho
Do I push the hot air out or pull though my fan? I'm guessing
Push it out but not to sure?
Cheers
Depends on the exact fan but most exhaust units are designed to pull air. They can push but it's less efficient. It likes a certain amount of pressure behind it to get the air moving. Other fans may vary but almost everyone prefers to pull air through the cooltube.

I have cooltube - 6" ducting - flange in the ceiling - exhaust fan mounted in the flange - expelling into the attic

Keeps my closet temps ~5-6 above the intake room temp. And it's only a 240 cfm "booster" fan that I paid 25 bucks for.

Can somone private message me so easier reading

- so why do you use 12/12?
- what good strains are their to use
- will it be good to use under 250w cfl?
- high yielding, fast finishing stains

- 12/12 from seed allows for a faster finishing time, the sprout "thinks" its time to flower much earlier.
- any Indica dominant strain, preferably 100% indica
- sure, that will work just fine - not rly sure if you can do many plants under that, maybe 2-3

what kind of yield should i expect from this much lower than if i would veg it? normally i veg until plants are 2 ft tall then flower them. what is your average yield per plant del?

obviously if you veg and have lights to match you will pull more but a bigger plant takes more space................i pull between 2 and 4 oz dry per plant, 2+ on a regular basis...

shit we pull 4 oz per plant under 1000s when we have veg time granted we are using clones not seeds so sometimes seeds have a lot more vigor but should be cool then

im gonna roll with it that would be cool to get a couple zips off each plant. my friend got them from some kid at his dispensary so he said to test them out and see if they are worth it lol. i'll post pictures when they come to life

Wow, I mentioned a few days back that I was doing 12/12 from clone. Well, they are 9 days old and they have gone nuts lol. Got them in 3L Airpots and all they have had to drink is Root Juice. Will get the pics up when they wake up :)

They wake up in about 30 mins. I didnt think they were going to survive as I made (what I thought was a mistake) by transplanting them when I could only see 1 root coming out. Then I put them straight under 400w HPS in the 3L Airpots. They wilted for the day but then the next day they were fine :)
