tired as fuck. upgraded the 600w bloom yesterday. added tarp on the bottom to water proof it, upgraded my 4" inline to a 6", and added a 6" phresh carbon filter. now there are five plants in the bloom room. WWNL, only a month left, (keeping it perpetual!), and 2 quirkels, 1 hindu, and one ogkgc.
The funny thing is these were vegged like almost 3-4 weeks more than last time, but they are only 1" taller than last time. twice as dense, and twice as healthy, im really interested to see how they turn out! OGKGC-20"
Hindu- 18"
2 quirkels- 14- 15"
pic1- from top to bottom, left to right- ogkgc, hindu, 2 quirkels, and wwnl
pic 2- the wwnl, its seems like the nugs densed up over night, this ones 1 mo, in 12/12!
pic 3- new 600w bloom room setup. the 6" is sucking air through the light first, then the filter. the other end of the inline is blowing air directly out the box!
pic 4- bloom2- day 1!

its a 6" hydro farm active air 400cfm inline. loud as fuck outside the box. the inlines ran straight out the box. thanks to you, reel flies, and tom_420, for the inline/light/filter configuration, you guys rock! thanks for the compliments, it means a lot!What fan did u pick up? I think we both have the same phresh 550cfm
p.s. Your girls look amazing, all of them
querkle turned out wierd. the tops were hard as rock nug. the entire thing is the most smelly, like skunk, completely purple and white crystals. but even the densest nug, which feels hard, in the middle it was mostly thick crystal covered leafs. i remember once, i had the most dank $400 and ounce purple kush, and it was mostly leafy, but super smelly and crystaly, it was the best stuff ever, i hope this is the case this time. i will let you know!

Great pics bro!
If you want to quiet that fan down a LOT hang it with rubber bungee cords rather than chains, use 90 degree elbows at all your bends in your ducting, and straighten out your flex-duct as much as possible so that the airflow has as little restriction as possible. I use straight piping (sheet metal ducting) whenever possible as this has the least restriction on your airflow. Then is you really want to quiet it down and keep your temps low you can also insulate all the ducting to keep heat and noise inside where it belongs.
I'm curious about that Hindu Skunk...want to hear how it is. Later

58, im gonna go at least 67 days next time, or 9 weeks. i feel like it was only a little amber on the tips, but other than that, the nugs werent dense enough, well see how it smokes and weighs i guess.
the inline is totally quiet inside, or quiet enough for me. its just on the outside. i have it blowing out, directly butted up to the hole outside the box. it so loud! im gonna used a duct elbow to flex ducting. i dry tested it, and it quieted it a lot. i just dont want it to sound like a jet engine!
hindu skunk doesnt smell as much a quirkel. quirkel smells the most skunky. i heard the hindu isnt that dense, even though it looks it. and so far it's true. the truth will come out in the end!

This is going to sound dumb but hear me out. I used to grow in a cabinet and I had the same prob. Know what I did to get rid of 50% at least of that 'rushing air' smell? Take some masking tape and make a # sign over the exhaust port hole on the outside of the box. Wish I had a pic for ya.
I noticed that if I covered the hole up with my hand halfway that the sound was greatly reduced somehow by the addition of a bit of resistance. You could use an elbow too prob, but I bet you have masking tape already at your house and also this way doesn't take up more room or look obvious either.

damn, i wish i would've heard that earlier. i had an extra 6" to 4" reducer, and some extra 4" flex ducting. i tech screwed it to the fan, outside the box, and i worked like a charm. that enabled me to return the elbow, $7, and i also returned the 6" hole saw, $30. it was cool because then i picked up some adaptors for my new 10 gallon rigid shop vac, now all of my projects can be cleaned easily!
