600 Watter... Afghanis with Headbands

[sparki]

cheese cloth is like 5 dollars max man. Go to your local fabric store and ask for it. Its what I did. I was expecting it to be more, its pretty cheap and will last you through a couple uses. I would throw up some pics mayne but I stopped posting pics last month, after a user in my state got busted through this site.

nice saved me a wrong trip to the supermarket/homedepot

the smell is getting really pungent now. debating to just wait it out of build a carbon filter.

This is something where I don't cut corners. I buy namebrand carbon filters for smell and any 4" inline fan will do good. I just purchased a carbonaire carbon filter and wow I'll never buy another from htg. I've been getting ripped off from htg, the carbonaire literally twice the size for 20 more dollars and does way better for smell.

damnit i got presentation and project due tomorrow. good point, im super stressed with finals so no time to bother building one. imma make a quick stop to the hydro shop before i head to school. oh yea HTG screwed me too with my 6"inline fan. i shoulda just payed the extra 20 bucks for a decent one. the one i bought is crap. i payed 120 shipped, to find out thats something that gets pumped out overseas for like 5-10 bucks a unit.

Ya I won't be anything from them anymore. I've bought my light and 4" inline fan through them. I'm happy with the light with all but the fact the the socket doesn't unplug from the ballast thats annoying as hell. And you have to use their reflectors for the lights.

Some update pictures. the afghanis look like they are getting pretty close to the end. headbands are moving along as well, they still have some ways to go. it all work out though. ill move them under the light when the afghanis are done.

Looking good. You think we could get a shot of the plant that you lollied and then a shot of one you didn't? I'm curious to see what the two look like.

fosho, glad you brought that up. ive been wanting to put up a side by side comparison but my door is too narrow for me to pull the plants in and out without loosing a leaf or two each time now. I'll show better views at harvest but heres a preview. i didnt title my files so heres the order, 1st and 6th pics are bottom and top of the lollied one and 3rd and 5th are the one i didnt lolli. 4th is top view side by side, lollied on the right.

wet season is here, humidity just jumped up to 70% in the lower region and 50% in the higher region. mold threat level=high. i've come pretty far, hopefully they hang in there. im planning up cut the afghanis in about a week. Today was the last feeding for the afghanis. Headbands will get another weeks worth of nutes. Afghanis's will start gettting flushed next week with Final Phase. whatcha guys think?

I've heard headbands are very mold resistant. They can grow right next to a plant with mold and not get it. Or atleast the other journal I followed with headbands that was the case.

Here are some shots i was able to take with the lights off. I think i have able a week left on the afghanis.

Last time i got some white mildew, but my humidity and temps were all over the place during the hot summer. Now its cold and wet, seems like its one extreme or the other, too much global warming. juch check and humidity havs been spiking to 85%. I think swapping out exhaust might not have been a good move. im gonna keep in intake fan running 24/7 until im done with the afghanis, then hoping that the extra room to breath with keep humidity in check till they are done.

man i wish rui would let me upload bigger picture files, these smaller files dont do justice. Anyways, the afghanis are finally 60 days old. all the pistals are brown. and have pulled back and the buds are swollen. Im officially spent do i cant make another trip to the clinic, im scraping into the resin surplus and want to harvest atleast 1 tonight. 2 of the afghanis have leaves that are purple and yellow tellin me that most of the nutes are used up. i just saturated the one im plannning to harvest tonight with water right before the lights shut off. Here are some photos.

All advice during these last few critical days would be very helpful!
