yes yes i did, i came out of the closet lol

problem: slow plant growth, yellow leaves on new growth 3 week old plants, sprouts sloooooooooooow to grow

solution(i hope): thanks to jack harer first off, water the damn plants, soak them even, ugh why did i not give those plants enough water, geez no wonder there could be a N def, it's not getting any h2o...so i soaked those babies but good and the next day voila a noticeable improvement, thanks jack

problem: now i notice how warm it is in that closet, holy crap, 93 degrees can't be good. did some research and shazam, apparently it is a little warm for the babies

solution: move a lot of stuff out of the spare bedroom and move the grow out in the a/c with the ceiling fan etc. so i did it and wow am i sore. i bought a bunch of pvc and was gonna make a grow tent, so to speak, using the connectors, kinda like tinker toys, do you remember those. that way i can make it into any shape i want and reuse and move with ease as pvc is very light. i bought a roll of mylar from local nursery and moving boxes from home de pot so i am looking at things and i think wow i really don't even need to build the pvc frame right now as these boxes will work quite nice. i used that blue sticky stuff and put mylar on the cardboard boxes and made a nice wall. placed pvc on top of box frame and hung lights, this worked out WONDERFULLY so i put another mylared piece on the top of the lights as a lid and i am all set, man she lights up like a christmas tree, temps all night 77 w %51 hum. i think this is awesome, the move, watering with ff guano and castings, cleaning out the closet, setting up lights and timers on new outlets took all of 2 hours, WITH the help of my lazy children, as you may have seen in the pics, he is a little baby himself, hard for him to stay up late and lucky is camoflaged in the black leather chair lol i love my cats and i love my new setup, oh yeah, price for fert, mylar, home de pot $80...it was a good day

    I just use a thread for mine man. I don't know the format or how to navigate the journals section really and I am just so busy with college and work.
