hey guys so heres the deal..


first grow ph all outta whack
2nd grow got the spidermites
3rd grow pm infestation like crazy

so then i got it all turned around and pull off a successful scrog.

so i got an idea of what im doing now i get a 2nd tent, raise 2 mothers.. then cut 20 clones, all just rooted. was gonna sog the clones in one tent and scrog the mothers in the other.

and now, my main waterline underneath my concrete slab in the basement starts to leak. no damage to my house or property or even signs of water (yet) but it needs to be fixed by a licensed plumber and from my basement.

so now all.my plants are still in veg. lights r off from 1pm to 7pm. their in a room closed off to where the work needs to be done but im still super worried about it.

plants are low smelling strain - bubbleicious ( i cant smell them even in the tent ) so im thinking i should be ok but im.just nervous.

had a guy come in and check it out and didnt seem to notice or pay attention to the room, also had my dad come check it out n didnt really clue in.

what would you guys do?

sorry just realized how long this got lol
 
That's tough! Sorry to hear that. If people you said didn't know about it and didn't notice anything, then you would pry be fine. I'm guessing most plumbers wouldn't give a shit, but you never know. Would it be possible to move them to a different part of the house while the work is being done? I would personally try moving them for the time being where the plumber doesn't have access. Good luck!

You may not smell them because you are acclimated to the smell. Anybody else walking in will smell them unless you have some super duper odor removing system I've never heard of.

This kind of stuff really sucks in a situation like this. And you think that they won't have to go in that room, but what if for some unknown reason they do have to get in there? Since you are in veg the plants are probably small. I would try to move them to a bedroom upstairs away from all the work at the very least.

We get VERY acclimated to the smell ....I have countless stories of leaving for a while and coming back just to think ....WOW.....that stinks bad ....if I had never left I would have thought all was good .....except for the occasional whiff here and there ....were the only ones that think are plants don't smell ...LOL

you have to clean everything after every run. its second only to hand trimming; on the list of worst chores on the list.

you cant leave anything you want to use indoors outside. I rinse my pots, then put them in a dish washer, I spray the whole area with alcohol 90%+ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TA9RHWQ?psc=1and mop all the floors with bleach. wipe down everything with alcohol. if you using a tent, wipe down the sides, and rise out the tray with bleach.

use a filter for your intake. I use cheap HAVC systems ones. you can -rotate/move to a cleaner spot- them when you see the intake getting dirty: 8'' puck of dead insects and muck, that would have gone right to your garden.
