No wasnt getting at bieng cheap I would think to be concerned about the fumes harming the plants I put plants in a room that was freshly painted ( tacky paint not completely dry but not just rolled out wet) and they took on a yellowing as if it was nitrogen deficient
I didn't think you thought I was a cheap bastard (I am, though, heh, heh), just get lots of people who don't seem to understand that, to me, everything I can scrimp on now means reaching our goal sooner, and will give us more buying power when it's time.

I should have mentioned that I'm talking about brushed on paint (acrylic latex), as I have no safe place to spray paint (fumes & overspray), other than out in the parking lot of our apartment complex in full view of everyone.

Sorry.
:-)

edit:

the nitrogen def was from leaving the plant in the little starter pot for a bit longer than needed, and I haven't fed them anything but water with Cal-Mag in it up until today.

That's what I mean that latex paint gives off Nasty fumes

Well, it only out-gases for a short while, and I'll be using a portable heater to speed along the curing process so that by the time they are in use it won't be an issue.
I'll be hitting the painted buckets with heat for a couple of days (periodically through each day so I don't melt or warp anything), and then will let them sit for another day or two before using them.

And the light hood is open, so the 435cfm fan sucks out the air pretty viciously straight out the window vent less than 5 feet away from the light hood. (it's 48 cubic feet in my grow box)

I'm also mulling over the idea of just taping some heavy black lawn & leaf bags to the outsides of the buckets (doubled over, and then wrapped around the buckets).
Though there will be fumes from the PVC, doing it that way.
But would be much easier & faster.

It's a shame the buds on vinnie aren't very big. ;) ;) FFS! They're HUGE man!!! What are you thinking 4 oz? Some class work bro.

It's snowing here and I found a sweet deal on a receiver I'm gonna pick up tomorrow. Finally going to have some music in the house again. Well... loud music at least.

Hope your weekend is off to a good start. As well as for the rest of you guys.

I know isn't it a shame ;)

Well I was thinking at first 3, but then a few have said 5 but I'm just not sure, breeder says with 35-45 days veg she can do 2.5, but I vegged her for 63 days and topped her twice lol.

Guess I will know shortly, she's almost done :D Next weekend.

Hey everyone, how's things? Doobie, I'm skimming through quick here; what's this about you moving into a house? That sounds great! I'm gonna be moving too soon. Into the city to be closer to school for me, work for everyone else, and everything else that comes of it. As it is now I'm traveling about 100 miles a day round trip, costing $300-320/mos in fuel, and then the school's soaking me $70/mos in parking. All the while the school issues me a transit pass (part of my tuition) that doesn't even get used right now because I don't live there. I'll gladly take public transit to save almost $400/mos in getting there alone.

Hi, duchie!
That's a lot of scratch out of the old budget to get to & from, for sure!
Not to mention the time & hassle of the drive each way.

We will have enough to move forward by the end of October, though not sure if there will be a house on the market that suits our needs that late in the year (lots of stuff pops up in the Summer months).
If we're lucky we might be in a house by the end of the year.
Spring of 2014 possibly, or Summer 2014 at the latest.
The housing market is real stagnant here, so things stay on the market for a long time. So it could actually happen before 2014 (fingers are crossed).
Nothing fancy, just a ranch style house between 1100-sq.ft. and 1500-sq.ft. with a two car garage (I get half of it for my music/art and grow space, the other half will be for the car)., and enough of a yard around it so that if the neighbor's house catches fire, ours won't just because it's only 8 feet away.
Excited & anxious to move on from the apartment scene.

That's very cool. I know you've been biting at the bit to get out of there. Hopefully you don't have to wait much longer.

We'll just be renting but hopefully we can get a small detached house by ourselves. No other tenants to deal with. I'm still being choked out by tobacco smoke from those assholes that live below us. I'm waiting for spring to hurry up so they can open their windows and give it somewhere else to go. I have to wait until at least July to move though so my daughter can finish her last year.

Yeah, that damn cigarette smoke sucks!
The couple who live below us are smokers, but they're not chain smokers like your "buddy", and these are non-smoking apartments (they didn't say anything about being non-toking, though ;-) ).
But they smoke right outside their front door, which is right below our front window, so we have to keep it closed unless we want the smoke up in here, which sucks, because I prefer to leaver a window open pretty much 24/7-365 for a breeze of fresh air in the place.
But it's nothing compared to your predicament.
I just hope he's mellowed out a bit, and isn't bothering you too much anymore.
Fingers are crossed that you find the place that works best for you when you do move.

I don't talk to them and he avoids me at all costs. Don't know why really other than he's really embarrassed about his drunken escapades. I've thought of confronting them about the smoke but that would just make things worse so I bite my tongue and wait patiently.
