veg side has 4 20 watt phillip`s soft white flouro`s
50 cfm bath fan/carbon sock
flower room is 4 foot by 3 foot and 7 foot tall

You should put some tape on those clear cups.. roots + light dont mix nicely....otherwise thats a sick little cabinet you got!

well i bought a ppm pen. now its gonna take some work to figure it out,directions on how to calibrate it and set the tds factor.haven`t found anything that explains it simple enough to figure out.tried to set it then checked plain water read 2.0 then made a strong mix of some flower bloom and it read 2.8 ppm.it just seemed low for what the mix was.(way stronger than i would ever use on a plant.)
if anyone can help me that would be cool or point me in the right directions i have no problem trying to learn this by reading.

the meter is an oaktron tdstestr high 2.00 to 10.0 calibration factor is adjustable between 0.4 and 1.0

glad i got new equiptment found the ph started messing up, had to give it a flush then gave it some worm poop on top and some pure blen pro and 3 days later they didn`t skip a beat and bounced back healthy. got scared there for a moment.good advice from friends is invaluable.
also found a button on my camera so i have to throw some pic`s up :peace:

Nice bunch of plants you have there, bonz.
Well done so far man, keep up the good work.
Looks as though you will have an awesome harvest.
I've read you have a clone setup, did you start with clones for this grow?

Certainly don't want him mad at you, that can cause a lot of stress on yourself.
Hope it works out and all is well with the setup.
