A couple things that I have done to help the smell on the Cheap.

1. Target has carbon filters that are 12x8 and 1/4 inch think for hepa stuff. I put one on the inside of the box at the fan. They don't last long but do take some smell away.
2. Get a humidifier and put some fabrese mixed with water. Get the cheep one that has only the on and off switch and put it on a timer and run it 15 to 30 minutes ever hour or so.
3. For a little more money you can get a ozone generator and it will take care of allot of smell. I have the ozn-1 on a timmer and run it 15min every hour. It always smells like fresh rain. If you are sensitive to it be careful as it can cause headache's.

As for the gnats. The yellow sticky traps you can get off amazon or hydro store work well to catch them. Also I think i used neem oil mixed in the water to kill the larva/pupi. See attached picture.

Thanks Yoda! I think that the humidifier with febreze is a great idea.. I had my mind set on an ozone generator before I started the grow but I think its a bit of overkill for just my one plant... Plus rep to ya man for all the info! Your plant looks awesome btw!

I threw some +rep your way too Zenith! Thanks for keeping me occupied and easing my mind!

Throwin in 4 more bulbs tonight, Imma make that bitch glow like the sun! (I wish )

Thanks Tucapitan, nice to see a new face in here.. thanks for checking out my lady! Do you have any of your own?

I wasn't able to fit all 4 of the new lights in the box but I got 2 of em in there, I know she'll love it. Now I have 9 all together, 8 23w 2700k and 1 23w 6500k.. kinda want to add one more 6500k. Next payday I'm going to get some 12" T5 floro tubes to add to the sides and then I think I'll be done adding lights lol. Some of the shoots are getting so stout that I can hardly tell which is the main shoot! cant wait for them buds to show..
I got a buddy coming over with a 1/8th of some dank headband, I might buy another 1/8th of some bubba kush to tie me over.. after that no more waisting my money on weed, imma wait it out untill my baby is harvested! Getting fed up with the prices in this town

At least you have some dank lol others like me have to wait for a harvest.

Baha gotta love the suited guys riding bicycles... I'm from Texas, and I hate every bit of it. Ft. Collins is about an hour from boulder, I haven't decided if I want to move to Ft. Collins or boulder yet but I know it will be somewhere near for sure. I'm hoping to get into CSU, shouldn't be too hard considering you only need a 2.5gpa to get in lol.

Little update for tonight, I just watered her about 10 min before she went to sleep with 1/2 str. Tiger Bloom and full str. Big Bloom. I noticed some white spots on her leafs that look like it could be mold? it was growing on the tips of some of the newer leafs.. I looked at it under a microscope so I'm about to do some heavy reading to figure out wtf exactly it is.. I sprayed her down real heavy with ph'd water and washed all of it off that I could see... I hope this isn't a problem

Hopefully its just nothing. And it decided to wear poka dots for a lil while. Looking good hope everything works out

Oh yeah its update time! Shes doing great and has been growing like crazy for the last 2 days. The white spots washed off when I sprayed her down last night so I guess it was just hard water solids. She is soaking up water like a sponge so I think I may need to water her again tomorrow night with filtered water and molasses. Bud sites are starting to fill out and more and more hairs are showing up every day .
Anyways, here are the pics! let me know what you guys and gals think! I would love to hear from everyone that checks out my thread!

That thing is humungo. Using any flowering nutes?

lol thanks man, I'm using the FF schedule.. Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, and molasses right now(Tiger Bloom would be the Flowering nutes). Next week will be the full load.. Grow Big, Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom along with molasses every other watering.

Oh yeah I remember you saying that. I can't remember whose journal says what sometimes.

Thanks Fight! Still a long way to go though and I still have a lot to learn, I'm excited for the future

You And me both my friend

Baha I laugh every time I see your sig Fight, very clever.. and your AK looks great man!

Can anyone help me out with this, I cant find much on it.. some of my pistols are turning brown already and look like they are dying, along with some of the stipules on the main stock. It's only a few of them.. I took some pics but my camera sucks so its hard to see, I circled them so you can get a better idea of what I am talking about... should I be worried?
