Cool JL, and you?

The volcano is a pain in the ass. We had one of our biggest client meetings of the year so far and we couldn't go because they cancelled the flights. And that was on Wednesday when the ban at Schiphol was over. It was because our flight was the red eye and the last flight of the previous evening from Vienna had been cancelled, so no plane. Wife was also stranded in the UK, but her ompany had bought her a back up Euro tunnel ticket, so she was only delayed about 30 hours...only. Big bummer all round. Anyway, we struggle on.

Well things are not to bad here. I almost scrapped my first grow. Tired of them not growing and all the issues I have been haveing. Then something told me to check my ballast. It is an adjustable Dig. Well I had it set only on 360W. So I shut it dowm. turned it up to 600w and the next day my plants grew a few inches. Suprised the crap out of me. I have already germed some Thai Tanic from flyingdutchmen. It took 2 days for them to sprout roots. They are in the soil now with the rest of my girls. Looks like I am going to build a veg cab as welll. Nothing big just enough to get the plants ready for flower. Plus I am looking at changing up my grow room a little bit. LOL no rest for the wicked. Any way I am into the 11 day of flower for the first grow. We will see. They are sleeping right now So I have no pics right now. Oh plus I have some Rosemary, Thyme, Sage, and Lavender going too. Thyme and lavender are popping through the soil now still waiting on the other two to break through.

My Dad and I were born in Johannesburg, my mom was born in Durban. Yea, Ive got my shirt ready. Got it on a recent trip to the motherland. From what I hear, the city is in no way ready for the cup. All the roads and freeways are FUCKED and crime is out of control.

Awesome!! We got a pair of Vuvuzela's sent to us in the post from SA, bloody noisy things, but quite funny to piss the neighbours off. I am sure it will be interesting indeed what with the infrastructure. As for crime....well that was never going to be sorted overnight. Who knows what will happen.... It's a real mare getting rental cars.

Hey guys,
Pretty new to growing and buying a 600w hps for my flower room that measures 2'x4'x8'. I was wondering how much cfm i will need if i do carbon filter in room-->fan-->duct-->hood--> exhaust duct out of room. I was hoping to run the fan on a thermostat to cycle it on and off around 78deg. will this be necessary? The ambient temp outside the room but in my house is 68 to 75 deg. Will i need an active intake or will passive do the trick?

Hi jphebbie2, you want to draw the air through the hood/light, this will also help the longevity of the bulb. so whatever you decide on, fan after the light/hood. With the size of your space I think your temps will be fine. Not sure if a fan running on a thermostat is totally necessary (if you want to perhaps save on some cash) I run a 60w ruck fan on my 600, not really sure what the cfm on it is. A passive intake should work.

Peace, DST

EDIT: Intake depends on where the air is being drawn in from (i.e outside the room)

LOL thats funny.... Here is some pics off Larry with a O of freshly trimmed slh.
My gosh it was like snipping off frosted flakes cereal from a branch. That SLH was super coated like no other I have grown before. The smell is amazing too.
Got 3 oz of prime bud (purple and coated white) 1 oz of smaller stuff that is not so coated and more green in color, still smells delightful.

Sounds good man. Even if im runnin a carbon filter i still want to draw air through the system? not push it from the filter side? is that different for in-line vs. canfan? I wanted to run a thermostat just to stop temp and humidity spikes cause i live in CO where the weathers different everyday.
Thanks

Once I went with a sealed hood and ran my filter/ Hood / Blower ~~~ Exhaust My grows have improved 10 fold. I still prefer to keep my 600 18" -24" away the last 2 weeks of flowering .

Nice plants GoldenGanja... think they are tall enough? Question about keeping the light away the last couple weeks... what's up with that. Never heard that. I'm always looking for different ideas. thanks
