i would love nothing more than to post my 11 fingered leaf of my nemesis plant, but for some reason the uploader is missing a bunch of recent uploads and the memory card it was on died.

anyone else's uploader missing recent uploads or am i mistaken?

It may just be a theory but I think light is the main factor in how many fingers a leaf has. So about each thousand lumens is one finger. An average sunny day is about 7 K lumens. Some landrace sativas can get 11k lumens in their region, and they are genetically adapted to that. They will get thinner as more come. I read somewhere that you can keep a plant popping out 3 bladed leaves with low light conditions, but it will either hermie or die, correlating to the 2100k lumen requirement for photosynthesis. I may be wrong but that's what I believe.

Proper ventilation and air circulation are essential to growing healthy, happy plants.

Ventilation and Circulation are Essential

Proper ventilation and air circulation are essential to maintaining a healthy indoor grow environment. The basic rule of thumb is to move the warm, moist air out and to move the cool, dry air in and around the plants and their roots. Many various types of fans and devices are available to achieve this goal.

Careful planning, basic research and smart shopping will acquire all that one needs to keep it cool and dry, and experimentation will fine tune the system to provide the most perfect indoor environment possible. __________________

Just a tip, I am a self-employed HVAC contractor. If you or someone you know is in that type of business, you can get ventilation supplies cheap, or even free. The fiber duct board that is used for making ductwork is very cheap and most suppliers will cut it to the size you want for free. That way is easy to fold into its duct shape and tape it. They usually have a large amount of scrap pieces they might be willing to give away for free. Another thing is you can get squirrel cage blowers for free out of old heating units or air handlers anywhere from very small to huge. The blowers most of the time are easily just taped into an opening inside your ductwork that you create. Most blowers have 3 or 4 different speed taps where you hook up your electric to, or you could wire it for high speed and get a motor speed controller for it. The other thing about the duct work is the outside is a reflective foil, silver color, very shiny. If you are creative, you could build yourself a vent system that surrounds your plants, you can cut small holes in it where you need to extract air, and it will reflect light back to your plants. Its sturdy enough that you could even mount some lights to it. Like I said, this is just a tip for anyone that needs to setup some sort of ventilation. I built myself a ventilation system this way and it works great. It cost me nothing but my time to build it. I took everything I needed from scrap furnaces and scrap pieces of duct board. The other thing is, it is super quiet. You really have to listen to tell if it is on and running.
