Ok here it is finally finished right before my lights went out.....wooohoooo!!!! I did this all by myself, no efin help!!!!
I am not going to lie, but I am beat down tired now. I also made it rain on 3 plants and xplanted Jack Herer into a 3 gal pot and spreaded her branches out and tied them. Lots of work got done although I have to tightent things up inside the tent as far as zip tying all wires and cables and make it nice, perfect and safe. i lost bedroom space but gained Flowering area....BIGGER PLANTS NOW BABY!!!
Here are pics of the tent.
4' x 4' x 6.5' Flowering Tent
R.Ed Kush Cola Chillin
My cool tube is huge and Billcollector is going to help me either rig another 400watt light fixture on the other end of my cool tube
Well its time to make some Ramen Noodles, shower, smoke my ass off and pass out!
Peace All

That came out great man!! Congrats on the new set up 
Bet you're glad you went with that 6" fan instead of that 4" fan like some people recommended in that thread you had wayyyy back
Always plan ahead. It was only a matter of time before you were going to want more space, more plants, more power and if you had gone with a 4" you'd be scrambling around for funds to upgrade to a 6"
Can't wait to see what comes out of this new set up, all you need now is a little more power. Maybe look into LED or CFL supplemental in the meantime until you decide what you want on a more long term basis.

You were and are absolutely correct on the 6" 440 CFM. I do remember a lot of people bitchin that my original tent wouldnt stand cause its took much CFM for such a small tent, they were wrong!

Wow, that new tent looks amazing. You have plenty of room for those trees you grow
You got some serious plants, I'm trying to keep them straight in my head, I high so no luck The MamaDude #3, OG, Jack Herer looks great. I can see they are going to be huge. MD #2 is budding up into your famous trees. You said that when you MIR, you fed you plant right after, am I correct? I MIR my plants, then when they need watering again, I feed them. Is this wrong? With that OG Herojuana, you can see the growth after you made it rain, wow! Hey BKB, pm me about those seeds (Northern Lights)

They said it would "suck your tent in" with that much cfm, lol As long as you had some air being pulled in, that wasn't going to be an issue
Thanks for taking my advice man, I was a n00b (and still feel like one often) at the time so I didn't know if you'd take me serious. Are you going to turn your old tent into a veg tent or sell it?

I wait like 20 minutes after I flush them with 5.8 pH water then I feed. I like this way so that each time I make it rain my plants will have a fresh coat of nutes. I did PM you about the NL Seeds, where did you get them from?Wow, that new tent looks amazing. You have plenty of room for those trees you grow
I appreciate you helping me then and I know I was bugging you because I had no idea what the hell I was doing. Its because of people like you at RIU is why me and others learn and have success. As far as my other tent, I will be using it for Vegging. I want to run a DWC grow now because I want to try it and learn. I still havent done my taxes so when I do them I might get a LED light for veg or a T5 2x4 if it will fit in there. The Vizio Veg Box will be the Vizio Cougar Box! I am still uncertain what will be my Cougar Plant, screw mother plants I want a Cougar Plant.....LOLThey said it would "suck your tent in" with that much cfm, lol As long as you had some air being pulled in, that wasn't going to be an issue

Yeah but I dont flush the soil with nutes anymore cause of that reason. Now after i flush with the pH'd water I feed with little run off of nute mix. It seems to be working so far and I am happy with the results. I think I am going to try with two plants every other MIR feeding nutes. Just to see if the plants like that more or less. Just trying to really read and learn my plants. Good to see you back around, hows your garden?

Love the tent...GO CMH DUDE REALLY CHEAPER AND WAYYYYY BETTER THAN LED OR FLUOROS .... the heat was easier for me to control than the cfl's....and cheaper ..and it flowers awesomely....
Them girls are so pretty ...love the green...so pretty...dont get me wrong i like bud porn but to me they are ever prettier in veg....fresh fresh and clean clean and green green
And yes making it rain is da bomb...I really like how you cna feed so heavy without burning...and of course the growth.... love how in flower day after rain white pistils everywhere...so fucking cool

Don't do that my friend or they will yellow very quickly from deficiencies and other horrible things as well...big part of making it rain is so they always have fresh nutes and the old ones have been washed away...eliminates lockups and ph troubles as well...feed every time brother...but what do I know......

Whats up BKB ? I,m with lIlumination ,dont use your runoff ,thats defeating the purpose of making it rain.
And WOW loving your new tent setup , looking good ! What did you pay for your cool tube , I,m wanting one of those ,my hood has a really small foot print .Have you looked into Jacks Classic or Peters Pro ? Since your making it rain those are some good budget synthetic nutes .

DYNA GRO since using ro...foliage pro, protekt, mag pro, bloom, and kln....everything a plant needs is in them...that is the major nute I am using for my lsd...have another couple I will reveal after chop... Jack 's is awesome as well but you will also need cal-mag or something similar because of ro water......also use just ph'ed water for rain then feed water last two gallons...i also add 1 ml protekt to my rain water as it only raises the ppm to 40 and provides ph stability to the rainwater...ph'ed plain ro will swing like crazy...the protekt being ph 10.5 stablizes the ro water and keeps it at a rock solid 5.8 after adjustment for the rainwater....What I do and why......Oh smoke n grow is awesome and cheap as well with the cal mag and all in it already as well

Very true , Dyna Grow makes some good nutes too , they have micronutes as well . I'm not using any synthetics since I'm organic .I do have some Jacks I want to try on a plant so I can make it rain . That foilage pro is supposed to be pretty good UB suggests it.

I'm in the same boat, been debating on trying a 5 gallon DWC or two but I've always been more interested in aeroponics... I guess it'll come down to time and budget when I finally pull the hydro trigger, for the most part I'm still a big fan of soil and prefer smoking meds grown in soil.I appreciate you helping me then and I know I was bugging you because I had no idea what the hell I was doing.

I'll be home all day for the most part, I'm just waiting to get paid so I can buy some ducting to finish linking both tents, also need to start getting ready for a No Pest Strip treatment for the next week or two

wo wo wo wo wo, maybe I wrote that incorrectly but I flush my last gallon or so with the Nutes mixed in it and there would be a lot of run off with nutes in it....What I was trying to say is I flush with pH water, then I have my nute mix seperate and start pouring fresh nutes in the container...when I see alittle run off from pouring my nutes in the container, I stop pouring my nutes mix cause I dont want to waste nutes by having constant nute mix run off. So when I see the nute mix running off the bottom of the container I stop pouring nutes in. I am just trying to save on nutes. I would never re-use or catch run off to pour back in, hell no....Sorry if I sounded like I did that but maybe the way i wrote it wasnt clear. Did that make sense? I do appreciate you guys getting on that and looking out so I dont "F" up my grow, but I wasnt using run-off to feed.
