Just a quick note for those who have lodged 'friend' requests for me. Please don't be offended, but I can't approve these. It's not because I don't like you, it's because if I approve friend reqs, I start getting bucketed with PMs. I don't like to use PMs because things I discuss privately invariably would be better discussed with the entire group. It's not unusual for several ppl to ask me the same question via PM at the same time. I just wind up retyping the same answer or comment numerous times. Moreover, I REALLY AM just visiting and I'm going to have to get back on my regular work here in the next day or two. I happen to have a little spare time for a few days, but I can't get back into running discussions which will lead to me again putting 6-8 hours a day into pot boards, an indulgence I just don't usually have time for anymore.

Sorry, hope I haven't disappointed or annoyed anyone.

i think the database needs some tlc. i get the same results here in the us.

have you ever considered using the lucas formula in your sog since you can run the same mix for a while. i just started with it and has helped me a ton. mixing three parts for different phase was too much for me.

thanks.

Thanks Al. Yeah, 3'X4'. The reason I was going to use A/C air from the house was because my attic gets to 120F+++ in the summer here. I figured it wouldn't be much help to put hotter air through the tubes than I want in the room. But I have been thinking about the waste of good high dollar a/c air. Maybe I could bring cooler air from under the house then exhaust into the attic. All I know is ambient temps here in the summer have no business in my op.

No, I've never messed with Lucas nor any 3-part nutes. The current recipe for all my flowering tanks is 300ml each Canna Flores parts A & B in each 125L tank, 50% grade H2O2 @ 1ml/L (125ml per tank) on mixing and every 3-4 days afterward and a few ml of pHDown, varies as needed, since my tapwater pH wanders depending on local rainfall (water treatment plant must change their scheme when we've had a lot of rain). Yields about 1000ppm. Gets no simpler.

Yep, I see your point. Drawing cooltube air from elsewhere and dumping it in the attic sounds like a good idea as long as there's decent attic vents to let it out. 120F air would still cool the tubes (somewhat) and remove some of the lighting heat, but would also warm up the cooltube glass & ductwork, convecting heat into the room. Best avoided, as you note.

I understand why you're using your attic, but it's an immensely challenging place to locate a grow. We haven't even touched on accessibility for watering & other maint, protection of the ceilings below in case of spills and so on. If ya gotta use your attic, ya gotta use it, but it gets sorta workish.

is anyone in this thred still

ds, I meant also to make a note about FLIR. It's not legal for coppers to FLIR scan your house without a warrant and there's good reason for that. There's any number of reasons for hotspots to indicate on FLIR, unrelated to running a grow. By itself, a FLIR scan cannot possibly constitute probable cause, due to all the uncertainty. FLIR imagery MAY be used to support a warrant application IF the coppers already have other evidence indicating drug activity on the premises, but by itself will not pass muster with any well-informed judge. Flying over a neighbourhood with FLIR in a heli, randomly scanning rooftops is akin to walking snifferdogs around every house in the neighbourhood. They're both 'searches' in US legal terms and you have a US constitutional protection against police interference and unreasonable search & seizure, unless you are reasonably suspected of a crime. The only exception I can think of where the Supreme Court has upheld a public interest in a warrantless search is in breath-testing roadblocks.

FLIR is not an x-ray. It really has rather poor resolution compared to visual. You can't look through a wall and see the outline of an HPS bottle with FLIR. FLIR is a surface temp thermometer. It'll show the temp of the surface of whatever it's looking at but not the cause of that warmth. Can't hurt to consider thermal signature, but I'd worry a lot more about nosy neighbours & meter readers noticing scent and fan noise before I went to any major heroics to eliminate IR signatures.

just wanna find out how to actually talk 2 someone to ask some questions

Just start a thread in the relevant forum. Someone will chime in, hopefully one of the more knowledgeable folks.
