    Hey xxgmrxx, thanks for yah wise insightful stoner input. Yeah its pretty sad to shelve the 600watt, but that sounds like a good idea, using the cfl's just to veg the plants. It would buy me some time so I wouldnt end up halting my grow any further. Now yah mention it that audio foam they...

    Tent or Room?

    A tent is def quicker to set up but with all the stuff I would be hanging (lights, carbon filter, cooltubes, fans) I was worried about how much weight the bars in the tents could hold so I made a closet. Also wouldn't you have to buy equip that matched the hole sizes in the tents for fans etc...

    UPDATE Had a hell of a time installing the 15cm intake fan as I didnt have a cutter attachment bigger enough for the hole, so as you can see I drilled a 10cm hole and then went around it with a 2 cm attachment. Then filed it down, damn what a pain.... The bad news it, its loud as fuck, I...

    Nah, Im a bit nervous bout the seeds as they show no signs of life yet and its been a few days already. So you just leave them floating in water? If these dont start moving I might try that method. Thats a good idea with the fan placement, I was going to measure the pots in the morning and...

    UPDATE: Just pretty much finished installing the carbon filter, all thats left is to add another bracket behind it to keep it pressed against the hole in the wall and to add tape around the joins. Also drilled the hole for the ballast and moved the lamp hooks around for the 3rd time...

    Thanks man, its gonna be a while but it should be worth it! Here's some pics for yah from my first attempt, using the rubbermaid. A long story short on why they died... 1) Something started attacking them (as seen in pics) 2) Sprayed with neem oil, with the lights still on.... 3) Came...

    ChillCat, that sounds like the smart way to do it. How much do you think you will get off the plant? Also, any ideas on how to resolve the heat issue? extra fans maybe? I had my small pc fan connected to some ducting that ran to that small grill you can see in some of my pictures. Kept it...
