Club 600

Hope it helps Bassman. As a question to anyone, I have a Delonghi dehumidifier. It has a tray for collecting water, but also has an attachment that screws off the back and you can attach a hose (so that you can let the water collect in a larger container if you want). However, I attached my hose and when the tray was full the thing turned off as usual, and never used the hose....anyone know how I may get this Italian beastio to workio? I think I tossed the instructions.....will need to check (I don't normally).

Not sure D... If you attached the auto drain it shouldn't be collecting in the bucket.?.... Mine drains into my external res's and runs continuously.... Try checking for leaks at the connection.

Thor has a hammer, I need someone with scissors lol

check that the hose seals. I had one that leaked into the bucket still and filled it up.

more like a machete, haha...

The new machine seems to be way more effective than the other one was. went from 75% to 70% where the old one was stuck in just 15 minutes.
I am excited....maybe I wont lose anymore buds?!?

I set up the new tent today, hung the light rail and hung the hood from it. I'm just waiting on the ballast to find it's way back to me so I can be ready for more plants. I bought the same brand tent and since the walls are held in place with velcro, the new one just stuck right to the old one. I wasn't sure if would work like that or if I'd have to fasten them together myself but the velcro on the left wall is sewn on opposite the velcro on the right wall so there was a fine side on one tent and a coarse side on the other

I would still find and remove infected areas, it will continue to spread if you dont.

Here's a few pics I took today. This is day 10 of 12/12 for the little girls and I switched out the MH for the HPS today.

If and when I get back into indoor I think a movert will be great. I wonder if I can put a mover in a small 4x4ft tent?

The old dehumidifier does 30pt at 5.1 amp draw
The new dehumidifier does 70 pt at 7.7 amps draw....I love a bargain!!

roughly 50% more power usage and over double the work done.

Looking at yer pics Dez, I guess movers will fit in my tent....cool!

Yeah that's two 40"x40" tents attached together. I just drilled 1/4" holes in the track and hung the track from the top supports rods in the tent with some 1/4"x4 1/2" "laundry hooks". They're just hooks that had machine threads on them so they can be through bolted instead of screwed into wood.

I see 2 tents sharing a light mover. I didnt figure they could be small enough for my tent.
Oh well, I bought 2 new hoods that are vented, just need another 600 watt hps ballast, that is unless I decide to run a 400 MH with my 600 hps for flowering.
I was using bat-wing reflectors before, and had one of the warehouse salad bowl reflectors.

I started running my dehumidifier this evening after lights out also. I pulled the battery out of one of my hygromoters so I'll know what the effect actually was with lights out set at fifty percent humidity. I'm not really concerned with mold or rot at this point it's just to early in flowering for these sativa dominant plants plus they like higher humidity anyway with their airier buds. DST. I keep my unit on a chair with the drain tilted slightly downward to help it drain and run a tube into a five gallon bucket. I'll get a pic up in the morning when my lights come on. I also made sure to buy a digital unit so when you set your desired humidity after a second or three it then gives a readout of the current humidity level. If I want my humidity to be at fifty percent and it's humid out, I generally have to set it at forty five percent. Soon I shouldn't need one but rarely with winter arriving here and the humidity gone.

HU I like the idea of placing it on a chair. I am gonna try this. The guy at Sears Is like, Do you want one with a pump? I see why a pump would be helpful now. At the time all I saw was $50 more for the pump.
Anyhow humidity is still going down. Now at 60%

32 days 12/12......(candy kush x chemD-og)

Look on the control panel for "PUMP" and turn it on. That should do the trickioso

Hmmm... after looknig at the photos & reading, the large diameter hose is for continuous passive draining,


and the small diameter tube is for using the built-in water pump.


Are you trying to passively drain using the smaller tube?

I keep trying to get my girl to smoke with me. Everytime she does is when she has been drinking.
She always ends up getting sick.I guess she isnt going to smoke anymore.....

I have to pay her back the $300 for the dehumidifier....why cant it be a present....lol

it seems my dehumidifier has hit the wall....60% and holding.
oh well better than 70% plus I guess.
The shed is not sealed well and this is the best It can get I suppose.

Oof. I'm so homesick. 3 days in SC makes me sure I'm not a southern boy no more. I worry about my plants, I want my dog near me. It's hard to see my folks get so old and mean (they are tea party, I am NOT). Damn, I'm over 50 and my family still rips my heart.

I have dreams of my res running dry and my plants all dead. I must devise a topper-offer of some kind before I go away again, I just don't want a huge flood and emergency squads outside when I come home.

Peace, 600
