which fan? :p there's three in the picture. I've since moved that pink one at the top to the bottom for more circulation. It was recessed and pointing at the bulb.

the actual light is outside the cabinet too, there's a hole in the top. ;) the cabinet is 4 feet tall.

looking good brother looking good,got a digital ballast myself,does your hum ever so slightly,my lumatek 600 does,and it says its completely silent

ive just set up my first indoor,in a secret jardin dark room tent,measures 120cmx120cmx200cm,i have a carbon filter and cootube linked,then exhausted out from tent.i have NO IDEA what my fan rating is tho,its 5 inch,and its meant to be some sort of turbo fan,i just asked the guy in the shop to make sure the fan i he sold me was big enough for the tent i was buying(i had no clue about fans really)i
ive got a damn 600w tho,wish i went with the 400w now(just hps as they are all auto flowerers)and my temps like 78f outside the immediate tent area,and 74/75 inside the tent,its fully lined with mylar and thermal film!

Well there is snow in the forecast so all my outdoors plants are inside with me for their last 3 weeks. Thought I'd share with you guys, I had to ditch the cabinet for now. I'm still within my legal limit with 3 mature plants and two veging. :D








They are all clones from my dispensary. :D

Hey all, I have some questions. I'm in the 7th week of flowering. Some are a couple days apart but I need to know if these are going to gain more weight.

The trichs are like 30% amber but they were in some 45 degree lows before I brought them inside.

Here's all three of them for size comparison.



This is the white russian, I think she has endured the least cold.



here's the strawberry cough, I think she got the coldest, but she's also mostly sativa so she will take longer, but she almost looks like she's gotten some frost a little.



and here's the chocolate chunk which has been flowering ever since I got her as a clone so I don't know for sure when she flowered but she's obviously a little a head of the others.





As of now I know I will be going into the 9th week but I wanted to get all your opinions on whether the cold might have effected their total yield. Because most all of them have swollen calyx's near the bottom of the buds, that's why I almost think it might only be one more week, but at the same time they don't look as fat as they should. Will they gain a lot more weight in the next week???

If you say trichs are at 30 percent...just wait a tad bit longer till 50 percent...and she's at max potency...any longer and thc degrades...few more days to a week...

oh yeah, and the cold may have stunted their fatness...but i'd be happy with what you've earned :) It is what it is :)

Don;t think you affected the yield much if any. When it's cold they pause for a day or two but that's it. They are bult to survive weather extremes. They look realy nice and very yummy. You can tune your harvest to the type of high you want. I go 10% clear, 60% cloudy and 30% amber or there abouts. For me if it gets to very few clear it's time to cut. I got surprised on my last grow. I was figuring 8-9 weeks and they were done in 7 1/2 weeks and I had to fight the urge to go by a calender and not trich developement. Let's just say I cut them at the right time.
