the same shit to me. It gets boring when I don't have something to fix or improve. I've reached my limits. Space and electricity. I can't go up now. So I am afraid I could fuck her up one day by "improving" something that already works. greetings over the sea!

Thanks! Actually, she smells a little. It's noticable, but not a "stink".
By the way - where do you see the nute burns?!

EDIT: If you refeering to the purple on the leafs I'm pretty sure she's just getting her blue colouring.
There's more about it at page 7 or 8 :)

Oh I see now haha I saw that dried up dead leaf at the bottom at glance I didn't look hard. I was distracted with the thought of the plants smelling hahahaha. I apologize she looks great! what would you describe the scent like? And about how strong is it?

Also can you give me a temp of your room? I was under the impression that the plants won't turn color unless the room hits around 52F at night.

Hehe, no worries!

Well... It doesn't smell weed or anything near it but you sure can smell that something is going on when you come near the place where the case is. I am maybe imagining stuff because I know it's there... My girlfriend who I live with doesn't smell anything at all. And she's not a smoker (has never smoked), and both the case and my other grow (Northern Lights) is in a room where we spend most of our time. I just asked her and she says that she can't even smell the plant when I open up the case to check in. Hmm...

To be honest, I don't really know what the temperatures are in there, but I can say that it never runs hot anymore. I know that it gets cold during the night hours when lights are off because the case is in a cold place in my apartment. Maybe it has something to do with the colouring as you say?



EDIT:
Just got of a conversation with my brother who's been a heavy smoker, but hasn't smoked for the past 2 years.
He confirms what my girlfriend says. He couldn't even smell a hint of weed.
 
I'm subbed and totally loving this thread! Your making me reconsider a 400w HID project for something like this. I live in an apt and 2-4 of these boxes would suit me MUCH better then a small cab. Space and smell are my biggest concerns and this is looking amazing!!!! Can't wait to see how much this little bugger yields. If you can get a z off her then a couple of these boxes I think is my way to go!!

Can't wait for the end result!!!! I also like your growing the way I want to. I did have one question though! How are you 20/4 and its growing like that, I thought you can run 12/12 from a seed to skip the "veg" stage, but you can run that many light hrs and it'll still flower w/o vegging?

Thanks alot man! I totally get you. My apartment is 240 square feet big (no joke), and I've got the very same concerns. Damn, we also have the very same goal - 1 oz!
I must say that this works out so well (and it's damn fun!) that I'm considering building one more PC case.

20/4 is, what I've read and understand, they way to go when you're growing Autoflowering strains. Some Auto's can andwill do better under other light schedules, but the majority of the Auto's do best under a 20/4 schedule.*

12/12 is when you're growing "normal" strains (not Autoflowering). I've also read that when you go 12/12 from seed, you can have a 24/0 or 18/6 light schedule for the first 2 weeks, then swich to 12/12 because the plant won't go into flower in that time no matter what.*


Where * is marked is what I have read. Please, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong!

I have three fans in my PC case grow too, but im using a few UVB lights. I have no more rooms for fans, but the fans arent cutting it. For now ive got a air purifier blowing into the back of the case to keep temps down, but may i ask where you got the adapter to run those fans? My temps are hittin over 100f, i need a fix before this guy sprouts lol

edit:
hopefully its a lady that sprouts not guy xD
 
So if i have random seeds, should I 18/6 them for 2 weeks then 12/12 or just 20/4 the whole way through? I've got a couple random seeds and figure'd ill start with those since they were free.

Hmm, we're not on the same continent so I don't really know how your stuff works. But make a search for "AC DC Adapter 12V" (5V if you got 5V fans).

Personally I would go 18/6 for the first 2, 2 and a half week then switch to 12/12. I would only do a 20/4 schedule on verified Auto's.

Do you need an adaptor for each fan?

No, just make sure you get an adapter that have enough Milliampere (MA) to run all fans.

Check your fans for MA and Volt values. Let's say you got three 12V CPU fans with 0.2 MA.
Then you'll need a 12V adapter with a minimum of 600 MA.

awesome! hahaha glad to hear that my grow will go unnoticed i have roommates who bring in shady characters every so often. but yea im pretty sure the colder temps are making your plant change to the purpleish coloring. i hope my box will get cold at night i doubt itll drop below 60 though. id love for my plants to get the full coloring as described by nirvana
