    Thermal detection 400 watt or 600 watt hps lamp

    best venting is either the sewers, (be carefull of where your drains are outside...) and chimney (the smell is over head and difficult to pinpoint) but you cant take out bricks from a chimney however you like.

    Thermal detection 400 watt or 600 watt hps lamp

    if you insulate your grow area then ventilate a sealed area on the outside, i was considering the application of a vented tent covering a celotex room with cool tubes. then cover with an IR proof covering, if you have anymore applications please let me know.

    What do you think of my proposal ? I would like something done

    you won't get any light onto your top plants at all, it's because your light's are going to be lower than the edge of the bucket's you'r better off with cfl's strip lights, look into aquarium lighting for a bit of an idea.

    Low humidity during flower?

    sounds ok. but it's not all about the figures man.. you need to see what your plant/ strain responds to. some plants much prefer the more humid hot climates and others cooler and dryer.. it's all about getting to know your strain.

    lowryder #1 grow HELP

    i live by elastic bands... during vedge, as soon as your plant starts to get close to the light pull it down. and when flowering pull all the bottom branches up towards the light in an even coverage (the more even the more bud), you can look see what sort of harvest you'll get if you go on the...

    Can i re-use soil???

    i think the main problem here is that you get water dried up in your pots which leaves salts behind. this is bad. but if you treat your soil a little bit yeh you can use it again... is it worth the extra effort rather than buying a new bag for 3 quid ... hmmm no probably not.
