I got the low life autoflowering mix pack, its just a mix of seeds from lowlife so I don't know what strains they are. I do know that their ak-47 cross is a big plant and usually takes up twice as much room as their auto hindu kush or most of their autos for that matter
 
well thank you very much

little bit of a problem....

i only have 3 ports for vents and 1 is pumping cool air in from my a/c and the other 2 are being used for my DIY cooltube

problem is.... when i have to worry about smell theres no exhaust to put a carbon filter... since i have a small op could i get something else to kill the smell, like do the ionizers do the trick?
 
sweet grow dude those pics r all i need 2 convince me of those ak47xlr2 i gotta get me some of those good luck

peace

IDk man that smell whenthe plants are flowering it reaks everywhere but personally i think the carbon filter would be best but idk what you should do since im not in your shoes. But im about to get my first carbon filter in the mail and i have shit tone of air freashners blasting in my room so i wouldnt expect to have a problem about smell.
 
BCheesey, How much you trying to spend on your smell problem? You can get a standalone carbon filter. I have one. You can find them on Ebay or make it yourself. Just a squirrel cage fan on top of a 6" diameter wire mesh tube that I made out of screen door material. Reinforced a bit of course but then filled with activated carbon and an additional filter wrapped around the sides of the mesh tube. The cage fan sucks air through the outer filter and wire screen then through the activated carbon and finally blows it out the top. Works good for a small grow but if you have a really stinky strain you might want to look into this. CAP OZN-1 Ozone Generator up to 5500 sq. ft. - Businesslights.com For that, you'll also want to pick up a digital timer so you can have it on a cycle of about 15min on, 45min off. Digital timer is like $25 but a must-have for ozone. Too much will damage your plants.
 
see i have nowhere that airs is blwing OUT of the tent, the only exhaust port is pumping the hot air out the the DIY cootube

Don't need an exhaust for the standalone carbon filter. That's why it's standalone. Use it just like a regular fan inside the grow room. Point it at the tops of your plants or wherever. It is just supposed to continually recirculate the air inside the room through the carbon filter. This is the picture of what a guy sells on Ebay. I basically ripped off his idea. Mine looks almost the same.

IDK maybe try the ozone Jr. at HTG. Let me know how it works. And I should have mentioned before that it is best to put an ozone generator in the room that the growroom is exhausting and/or intaking air from rather than the actual growroom. For example I grow in a closet attached to a bedroom so I put the generator in the bedroom, not the closet. It's best used to block the escape of odor from your growroom rather than kill it at the source. Does that make sense? I would just be nervous putting the ozone source very close to your plants.
 
nice grow.im thinken bout grabben sum autoflower seeds after my lemon skunk grow.does anybody know the cloning capabilities of autoflower strains??
 
ya dont clone em b/c of no veg stage it would just be pointless

they sell that exact yellow squirrell fan looking thing at wally mart i could try one of those but i already am lacking space in my grow room, ya my tent is in my cvloset in my bedroom so maybe the ozone genrator will work in there?
 
I have both the carbon filter and ozone generator and I grow Bubblicious, Super Skunk, and other stinky ass strains with no problems. In a rented apartment no less!! No one sleeps in that bedroom which the ozone generator is in so I can use that more powerful one but if you're going to sleep in there I would definitely stick to something less powerful like that Ozone Jr. I might also research the health effects there because you spend 1/3 of your life sleeping - not good to be breathing unhealthy ozone levels the whole time. But I'm sure your plant leaves would show damage before it was terribly harmful to your health.

As far as the carbon filter, if you are making it yourself, it is fully customizable. The squirrel cage fan is strong as hell even on low but my closet is a 6'x6'x8' walk-in so I can wedge it in a corner and not blow over the plants. Any space smaller than that and you should go with a smaller fan and consequently a smaller filter with less carbon. I would use one of those computer fans. They sell dryer duct adapters that go from square to round. Put the computer fan in the square end and your wire mesh tube with filter and carbon on the round. Bada bing bada boom. Everything except the activated carbon is available at walmart or home depot. Even the filter is a replacement for one of those in-home HEPA filtration units.
 
Good job man, i just got done harvesting my plants a couple weeks ago and have had some great smoke. I didnt get the greatest yield, 2 oz from 6 plants but thats probably cuz the conditions weren't that great. Also, a few of the plants yielded a small amount, maybe a quarter or somethign but was really the better smoke than the others. One of the smaller more potent plants was so hairy with orange, it was awesome. Keep it up
 
thanks everyone

i personally ting plant #2 looks the best and the funny part is thats the plant that my puppy bit hah

Heck yeah. As long as you're constantly moving air through the filter and charcoal it is serving its deodorizing purpose. Since most people have an exhaust system it is the logical place to put them but you don't so recirculating and refiltering the air inside the room is the next best thing. Even before I had the ozone gen if I turned off my carbon filter the stankyness would begin to increase immediately. Don't expect miracles but definitely a noticeable improvement.
 
I'm sure it would. I've never made one from a comp fan. You know what CFM it is? It's all about getting the right amount of carbon in there. Too much and the fan is too weak and burns the motor up. Too little and you don't get the full deodorizing power. You might have to experiment a little. And make sure you get ACTIVATED carbon to fill the inside of the mesh.
 
hey bluecheesey doing the same strain as well.what size pots are they in and would you need bigger?thats wicked the growth difference from day 23 to day 27 keep us posted very interested.:peace:
