LIST:HELP ME PULL THE TRIGGER(14'x15' room) 6- Flower X 1K+T5's-Veg. 2-Ton mini Split

[patrickkawi37]

I currently just have 1 fan that's outside the actual room...1-6" running at half speed...I don't hear anything from the outside, even up close to the main garage door. Maybe the slight hum while inside the house near the entrance door to the main garage but nothing else...and that may just be due to a 6" currently running at full capacity in order to vent the divider wall...I plan on reducing that to at least 50% if not less because it's just not necessary.


Thanks man. I have "D-Bub"...basically OG Bubba Kush crossed with something that puts it "on steroids"...combine that with Co2 that I'll have once complete and it should be fantastic as long as no pests get in my way...I'm still learning the basics of the feeding, flushing, folliar spray, pesticides etc. Once I have that down, there's no stopping me other than evolved mites or something that become immune to the pesticides.

I have a shit ton more work to do in very little time...took a few pics but nothing much...just know time to load em up from phone to here yet but will post them up later. I currently have the D-Bubs at over a foot and ready to go into bloom...just that the bloom isn't quite ready yet. Like I said...pics. when I'm done and can spare more time than it took me to type this.

how much did cg tax you for that cut? would you be willing to sell it or trade it out?

There's another commercial guy with this. I've given my word that nothing ever leaves the garden at all. I'm known on other forums with a different theme as one of the most trusted people out there which is the main reason I've been trusted with this. Sorry...otherwise I might be able to help ya out.

did you figure the door out?

 

[Ty13]

did you figure the door out?

Not yet....There isn't just one size that fits because the gap ...maybe the one you have...I think I know what it is and am going to try to pick it up...We'll see...other than that, it will prob. have to be a plastic drape w/velcro type of set up...sucks.

 

[budwich]

not sure I am understanding where the gap is. have a pic?

It's just the tiny gap that you get along the door and the jam...The door obviously isn't completely straight so, a regular weather strip will cover some of one area and not the complete gap in another area...EVEN on the same side.

HOWEVER, I found a diff. weather stip that seems to work for 95% of the light leak...Only the bottom part of the door has a light leak now. I can prob just put another piece of weather strip on the door to sit right above the one currently in the jam to block that though.

I know...it's hard to put into words. I just haven't taken many more pics. as I've been trying to get so much else done. Once the room is done I can stop stressing as much...These plants are ready to go into bloom now.

for sealing up light leaks, on the hinge side, i cut a piece of panda plastic and duct taped it along the whole seam to the door and the wall. so when door is closed it is flat, and when open it moves with door. on the outside of room I used a couple sheets of panda with that velcro zipper thing they sell. its pretty durable. this part needs to be done first with panda laid out flat on floor before you hang it up over doorway

Thanks for the advice. If the way I'm attempting to do it doesn't cut it, I'll be trying something like you're describing or just a plain whole other piece of material that will act as another door with a zipper entrance.

They should really invent something like this...doors with zippers that light seal...maybe a whole room that is ready to pop up like that and light sealed.................Oh wait, they do...They're called tents LOL

Sorry, it's been a frustrating journey.

A few pics. of my first time trying to just have some things in place. I have a TON of work to do yet!!!

 

[budwich]

I'd flip now if I was ready I'd think(first grow here) but the drain tables need final touches and I need to take cuts still...Got the rockwool plugs soaking in 5.5 now.

Doing a great job !!!! looks like you got the magnum hood , using mostly mags and great whites, looks sound great design, NOTE TO THE NEWBIES: check how his electrical cords are all up off the ground and away from from potential hazards such as water!

I got lucky with the few you see here...The ballasts are all outside of the room(passed veg. room) and the lamp cords were pretty much forced to go through the ceiling...thanks to the electrician I secured in the beginning. The few you see in the veg. room are thanks to the quick work a friend of a friend here on RIU.
So, thank you very much for the help if you get a chance to read this....you know who you are.

Been soaking the rockwool plugs at 5.5-5.6 ....You guys know if that's a biggie to be with in a tenth?

I'm setting the 70 pint Danby Premiere dehuy up on the wall in flower today as well. Hopefully I'll get it running continuous through the wall and outside to a reservoir with my condensate pump tonight.

My rockwool soak with just RO ph'd to 5.5 is UP to 5.7 this morning........Okay or should I PH down to 5.5 again??

Got the 70 pint dehuy up and out of the way last night. The only thing I didn't get done was the line to the very outside...I did however get the continuous run through the wall and condensate pump all running together. I just have to run the line out to the reservoir...that's it.

Quick pics:

Just a pic of the Danby Premiere 70 pint in bloom room up on the wall now.

This is the early pic of the flower room drain table. There will hopefully be hose lines on both sides of the room...One through the door from veg. and I'm planning on getting a pipe fixture through the wall...It will facilitate a hose and watering wand on the side the picture above is taken from...the far end of the room.

looking nice man. I have never dealt with rockwool but I would think 5.7 ph is fine. Why did you put the dehuy so high..just more floor space or does it preform better off the ground? I just finished building/ hooking up the exhaust system for the flower room. Should be fired up by tomorrowishhere are some pics in the mean time

I just put it up enough not to hit my head on even when I step up on the table...just in case...AND there's hardly ANY walk way lol

Your exhaust looks clean and just about hidden if I'm seeing that right....Looks like it sits underneath back in there? Nice big fan leaf there too.

Thanks for the word on the ph btw.

 

[Ty13]

Is the reason the rockwool is soaked overnight...that the ph is supposed to rise?

I'm new to growing and would already have researched this extensively but I received plants quicker than I thought...before I had the room done even.

If it's supposed to rise overnight, couldn't I have just PH'd it to 5.9-6.1 originally or does it some how get stable there or some shit?? I mean, it's at 5.8 now early this morning...

I'll keep this to grow design/set up etc. but hopefully someone can chime in on this......Off to Home Dump to get some shelves for the propagation trays/domes the clones are going in....I'll put up pics. of that in the veg. later.

 

[budwich]

I know they sell rockwool treatment, supposed to adjust the ph of them. But again I have never used rockwool, I prefer to clone in rapid rooters or bubble cloner
