the one in your avatar looks fine.....like i said you grew a nice plant but its time to upgrade

you got som pc fans for your little cabinet( one high one low opposite each other) paint it white inside or get mylar, pack it with cfl's and 3 or 4 small single cola plants and enjoy.... you said it yourself you know how to grow weed so get your room right and grow some. what do you need to know????? your not gettin 400g in there so what r ya lookin for?????

please don't get me wrong. I am takin in everthing I'm hearing. but that plant is almost done. I not gonna mess with something that's already good to go. I am asking about the next go round. I already have 6 times the light I had for this plant inside of that cabinet. And i plant to put 2 300 watt cfl's in there 1 on top and 1 on the bottom. I know i need more light next time. waaay more light that's why i'm askin how to setup that cabinet. you might need to read the entire thread to fully understand my plans! I'm not a complete moron.... just a lucky one! LOL

Thanks for the insight. trust me your breath was not waisted!

If I can't come up on those 300's how many more of those tubes do you suggest? And oh yeah, I'f somebody has a sure fire method for gettin those huge yeilds I'd spend the money! I am thinking about the bubbleponics system from stealth hydro. the one that holds 6 plants. that's when I plant to use those Dutch seeds. I appreciate it all Tuss!

Thanks!

and i do happen to have a couple mini fans...... I will install them and take pics. I plant to keep puttin up pics as I upgrade the box with you guys help!

OK, screw it. If I just go ahead and get myself a 1000 w HID. Then does my goal seem possible? 1000 watts for 6 plants? But I gotta tell y'all where I'm located...... it would draw a lot of attention... A LOT I'm where that obama joker is! 10-4?

Huh? you live in the White House? 10-4? even with a 1000 watter Id say you are being totally un-realistic. And thats from somene only finishing up #2. But, how would 1000 watts draw so much attention???? Just wonderin..

just get the 430 like you said erlier, you can get those yeilds if you veg long enough and manage your canopy right... make your own hydro unit its really easy poke around the forum you will see, check out the 15 minute areo build or just get a air pump a roughneck rubbermaid storage container some net pot, hydroten, nutes, ph pen, tds\ppm or ec meter and get to it, your gonna have to make up your mind what you wanna do you went from a lil cabinet to a 430w to a 1000 watt and soil to hydro... what do you want to do come up with the mesurements of the grow room and i could give you ideas of what you can do.....

if you wanna go hydro be prapared to spend some cash

i was thinkin 4x4x6. I'mma take a flick of the potential area! and post it BRB

get a 600w with a cool tube and at least a 265cfm fan to cool the light and exhaust if smell is gonna be a problem you will have to look into a seperate exhaust with a carbon filter and have your cooltube run from the outside of room through the light and back out. a small circulation fan\ ocilating fan, you could use 12" square pots and put 16 plants in there grow em up to 10" to a foot trim up the bottom third and flower, hope for at least an oz per plant and walk away with a pound, be shure to get mylar or paint the walls flat white
you could get away with the 430 in that space if your worried about power usage or heat issues you may get away with the 430 and not have to spend the extra cash on a cool tube and just have good exhaust and circulation

It's already painted white. That is where the first plant did all of it's growing.

ha ha ha yea nasty white you may just wanna get panda film and cover the walls, be sure to tape all seems and make it nice and pretty, you dnt have to but it wouldnt hurt

are ther walls enclose ing the whole 4x4 area, if not build some..... walls can be as simple as panda film streatched accross a wooden frame....... if the area is not enclosed your loosing light

damn it, ok I'll just do it. and is the plant i have now considered grade a or b?

how long ago did you cut it did you hang it for a week or so and put it in jars yet??? if so how long heve they been in jars... you could smoke if you hung it for a week but it may be harsh and it may be hard to light\ keep lit but it will get you high and you may be able to taste it

it's still in the pot. i have not harvested yet. I was givin it a few more weeks. what the best light cycle to ripen it? 13 dark 11 light? or can I use more dark to ripen faster?

If you want bumper harvest, you had better consider co2. If you choose to use co2, cfls are next to useless. Big lights, big pots, big plants. not at all knocking cfls. once you go hid, you only use cfls for seedlings.....
