I was wondering if that would work.. I only have a six inch 250cfm inline fan I could use tho. Got no moneys for next two weeks cept for gas and groceries.

Next grow I am gonna upgrade my exhaust to the cabinet and get a carbon filter.

Hey Ms Pie, just a heads up I bought two of those fans this grow and they were crap. One lasted maybe 40 hours of operation, one lasted 4! Had bought through Amazon and thought the first was just a fluke, but 2nd bad also. I had them on a speed controller, that might have had something to do with it. But if they won't dial down they aren't gonna work for me.

Replaced with this

and

All is well. More pricey but lots more power and very quiet.

Peace - AIM

Day 71 - 12/12 Day 47

Still chowing down on herself. I watered her with 1 tsp per gallon. I can't go much stronger than that.

Prob gonna trim her up a bit later after I take a shower. Buds are definitely coming in nice. I'll take more pics tonight after she gets a haircut.

If I can manage to get a HPS light for next grow I may do a side by side comparison. Maxibloom vs Garden Tone. Idk tho. I think I need to fiddle around with the maxibloom dosages some more before I try to compare it to a tried and true method.

Are you running 75, or closer to 100% nute-wise at this time? Have to ask, if all else fails.. slowly go up until she's happy - some strains will guzzle 150% like it's water, would rather you not shock/stunt/burn her though.. hmm.

The back of the bag (bloom) says 1-2 tsp per gallon for a feeding. I am feeding her 1 tsp every 3 days. So basically full dosage?

The online source for drain to waste dosage is .75 tsp per watering. :wall:

Well, it's good that she's guzzling it up, better than a crappy surprise for the finisher.

surprise? Like what?

The surprise would be her all of a sudden stopping the absorption of nutes, and that'd definitely be shitty.. especially at that stage. I've seen it happen with a few other strains, none of which are similar in genetics.

Ah... you mean over nuting?

Then all the leaves would die pretty quick I imagine lol.

"Forced de-foliation with chemicals, save time and money with a fatal dose of NPK, todays recommended blend is 62-62-62." Yeah, let's not do that.. hahaha

I looked at your grow. There are a lot of bulbs. I am jealous. I'm not growing right now, it's hard to grow when someone's staying with you, I mean I trust him not to open his trap, I just don't want to put him at risk. Good looking grow, very good looking.

it is mostly indica, so prob in 2 weeks. I am on day 48 of 12/12. Tomorrow will be 7 weeks.

Yeah I didn't use side lighting on my first two grows and I wish I had.

She smells so strong. My mom walked into the house today (after I had run the attic fan for a min or two) and was like "It smells like a skunk in here!" with my front door open.. Thanks mom.

I said it might be the sink, cus I had some dirty dishes from making deviled eggs I hadn't cleaned yet. But she kept going on and on.. So I finally just told her my husband had smoked weed yesterday.

Day 72 - 12/12 Day 48

IMG_0921.jpgIMG_0920.jpgIMG_0919.jpg

Got a little scissor happy and trimmed 5-6 leaves off. They were half gone and blocking healthy leaves from direct light.

She smells like infected skunk ass.

Watered today.
