Do you know the cfm rating on this blower? i have read that CFM on low 1280, medium 1750, high 2180. On a post someone said that its like 450 cfm on high. The reason i am trying to find out is i am blowing to much cool air in my attic. my ac is running to much. i want to blow it back in my house after filtering it. i need to know how big a filter i am going to be needing.

No i dont. it should say on the box or in the paperwork that came with it no? Are you looking to buy a filter or make one? I'm sure you could use a pretty big filter with that blower.

no it dont say, the only place i could find the cfm rate is ace and it says it starts at 1200, 1700 and 2100 cfms. it dose move a lot of air. as for as the filter i am not sure. The problem i am having is ac running to much and blowing cool air in my hot attic. I want to filter my cool air and git rid of the hot air. I called on a light system on Craigslist, and found new 1000watt system for 200.00(new grower bout to many lights). i will be able to get rid of the heat with out wasting me cool air.

Well i dont know what your temps in your new growroom are, or will be like with that 1000. But if you pump cool air into your growroom, and the exhaust out of the room is still cool (and not heated up by the lights in the growroom) then i would say you dont need the A/C in the first place. Just intake normal air, or reduce the amount of cool air coming in so the a/c unit is not running all the time.
I have a bunch of chit to do today. When i have some time I'll take a few pics and tell ya how i made my carbon filter. very easy to do, and seems to work well.

thanks i will build my own. how long did it take to get your ph tester. I cant get a proper reading from the drops. i also figured out why my plants went shitty. The PPM with the hard water is less calcium than the reg so i was off like a 100 PPM. I printed a nuts sheet so i can slowly raise my PPM like they recommend. I am also going to add diamond nectar and cool bloom to complete the grow cycle. we will see how good it words.
My rhino took root already, know to veg. i cant wait to bud these.:bigjoint:

I dont remember how long my tester took. About a weeks or so i think. Makes sense about the hard water. Good thing you got it straightened out.
I'm a little bummed. I just found some tiny bugs on one of plants in my nursery. I think they might be thrips. I've been real lucky to not have any bug problems thus far, but I've got some work to do now. :-|

hey thanks for the link. I'm still not sure exactly what they are. Mine look pretty much like this, which is a pre adult thrip. But i havn't seen any adult thrips, so it could be something else entirely. I'll keep inspecting the hell out of it for a few days and see what happens.

How did you end up with those?
What's the harm of a few seeds? You talk like its painful or something lol.
Grow them seeds. You said you wanted some anyway. It's not like your tree is full of them right? I dont think its a big deal. I just got back from camping.:weed:

did you have fun, where u fishing Hunting or just getting stoned enjoying life:-P. I grow up in big sky Montana so i grow up logging, ice fishing, hunting. the first time i went hunting it was with a SKS with a 40 round clip, gun jammed 20 feet away from a four point White Tail:wall:. I almost cried when i seen that white tail bolt. Lesson learned, dont use other peoples guns before inspecting them.
but anyway i hope this seed think dont become an issue. i dont know where or how it happened. i will clean stuff up real good when i am done. Hopefully that will tack care of the problem.

Canoe + big lake + small tent + thunderstorm + night in the woods = Great times!
Are you sure they are seeds not just swollen calyxes? Cuz where'd the pollen come from?
