A little bit. I will post pictures of what I mean on my next photo update which will either be tonight or tomorrow.

I will also be showing pictures of my temperature control method as well. It's not the most conventional method, but it damn sure works!

Default Day thirty-one...
Day 31:
July 2, 2009

The kids are totally teenagers now on the verge of becoming adults as you can see. The tallest plant (TrainWreck) is now 11.5" tall and the shortest plant (Great White Shark) is just about 6" tall. They got their fourth taste of nutes tonight and if all goes well, I will begin flowering in about a week from now. The White Widow plants that I bred myself look especially great. Pics are attached below for your enjoyment as always.

I let it hang dry for about 4-5 days and cured it for about 12-14 days before I started smoking it. I weighed it about a week after harvest. The buds were dryer and crispier than I would have liked, but the White Widow seemed to be perfect with the same amount of drying and curing. I am never growing Big Bang again simply because the leaf to bud ratio was absolutely horrendous. White Widow yielded me more and was much easier to trim. I also preferred the high of the White Widow as well.

Default Economy exhaust system...
DillWeed's economy exhaust system:

Even with a brand new air conditioner and an intake fan blowing cold air into my tent 24 hours a day and an exhaust fan blowing through a carbon filter 24 hours a day, I just couldn't seem to keep my temps down as soon as I added one of my 1000 watt HPS systems to my grow tent. My temperatures began to skyrocket from an ideal 78 degrees all the way up to a ridiculously high 93 degrees! DillWeed was not happy about this so he came up with a plan.

All I did was simply figure out a way to get the hot air being pushed through my exhaust fan outside of the room my grow tent was in while still keeping nosy neighbors from smelling my plants. This is what I did:

Pic 1- I removed my carbon filter from my exhaust fan and added some flexible ducting and clamped it down really good and used duct tape to secure it.

Pic 2- I cut two holes in the lid of a heavy duty Rubbermaid trash can and put the other end of ducting from the first picture through one of the holes and into the carbon filter using clamps and duct tape to secure it yet again.

Pic 3- I put another section of flexible ducting in through the other hole which is hanging loose on the inside of the trash can for the filtered air to travel through.

Pic 4- I then cut a 6" circular hole in the bottom of the door of my grow room and clamped it into place.

Pic 5- I put a black plastic drain cover on the outside of the door to make it not look very conspicuous.

Pic 6- A shot of the door from the handle down. You can really feel the warm air being pushed through the vent and it doesn't smell like weed at all.

Pic 7- A shot of the trash can with the intake duct on the right and the exhaust duct on the left. I sealed the can with duct tape so I can replace the carbon filter on the inside when needed.

Pic 8- A basic shot of the whole concept (remember, there is a carbon filter on the inside of the can) and now my temps are back down to 78 degrees with the lights on and 66 degrees with them off.

It's amazing with a 20 gallon Rubbermaid trash can, a box of 6" flexible ducting, a few clamps, a plastic drain cover and a roll of duct tape can do, isn't it?

Hey man, i've been watching your grow and I like what I see. You have some great strains growing there. I'm growing some of the same gh strains and would like to invite you to check out my grow. Im using 2 600w hps and get great results with easy control of temps, humidity, and no problems with circuits blowing. Have your plants presexed? I would recommend waiting till you see those female calyx develop on every plant before inducing 12/12. My white rhino was 2ft tall before it presexed. Too soon can cause problems like hermies.
