my other concern if I have the room air tight, will the plants make enough oxygen to keep me from death in my growroom when Im in there with the door shut. if for some reason the vents were not on for spring time since it wont be so cold. any one know if mj plants make much oxygen?

thanks

No worries there bro. Not enough CO2 to displace all the O2.

The plants give off O2. That's where we get the oxygen we breath, from plants.

When I had my system on timers I would have my vent fan come on for 15min before my CO2 was released. Then it shut off and the CO2 released over the next 1/2 hour.

I had it set to come on 4 times during lights on.

I run my lights at night because it helps keep the temps down.

Last week or so I had a small pest problem (roolie pollies or pill bugs depending on were you live) anyway I found an easy solution. I found this little guy in the same room hybernating under a board. I picked him up and sat him on the totes. He started eating them up as soon as I backed away. Now he just sits there watching and laying on his fat little bug filled belly. check him out in the pic. havent named the little toad yet but I think I should, since he is helping me out.:shock:
peace:joint:

guys i just did a calculation of how much power 4 600w hps, 1 215 T5, 2 650cfm fans, controlers, pumps, a/c, ect. would use.

i caculated an average of about 52kwh used per day or 1560kwh per month. @12cents per kwh that would be just under 190 dollars per month. is that number low?

please feel free to chime in.

There just all bagseed in those pix.
I think mostly indica since most of the leaves are kinda broad. I ran these all first till I was familair with this system, (allways grew dirt before:spew:).

I have a few sativas in a diff spot , and they have long skiny leaves. But some of them bagseed look kinda like a hybrd mix of the 2 also. who knows might kick ass or might be the crown brown.:confused:

...or a mini-split AC. These are more efficient and don't take up floor space. Not much more than the portable with the external duct. Imagine just the grill of the AC unit mounted on the wall of your grow room - up high so the cold air will "sink" to the bottom of the room...

http://www.minisplitsystems.com/cgi/display.cgi?item_num=AS12-115V13H&gclid=CJCmwoH7jZkCFQ8eDQod5zunZg

I opted for the window mount as they are so affordable and I happen to have just one little window in my room that fits a 1 ton unit (12K BTU). $300 at Sears - Kenmore.

Hey Andyman as soon as you get a chance I need a lil help with my contactor because its a lil differant than yours. Its a 30A two pole 120v contactor but it just looks differant than yours. I cant figure out where the wires go on mine acording to your plans.
Mine looks like this, It's labels on it go like this if it was sittin on its base:

1/L1 3/L2


2/T1 3/T2


ok Theres a spot for the wires on each of those labels and then below the top row labels there are two more spots for wires that are not labeled

Hey StinkBud, I have followed your plans exactly for the cloner. Built it and everything and it looks great, problem is I put 10 Ak clones in for 3 weeks but no roots whatsoever. I put 150ml of Clonex solution in what appeared to be about the right amount of water (compared to your pics), a green sludge did build up on the sides and pvc's. Ph was about 6 and ppm was 400. So my question is how much water did you put in with the 150ml of solution? What is your ppm at, and also any idea what the sludge could be? Oh and one last thing I did see one root develop for about two days then it disappeared.

Your the man, keep up the good work buddy!;-)
