I use CFL's in a wooden box painted flat white on the inside. The wood is about 1/2" thick and even with the door closed all night the top of the box is barely warm to the touch.
That's my problem, I don't have a vent at all. haha. I just leave the door open when it's daytime and close it at night so it isn't too bright in my apt. I'll take a pic of the outside of the box tomorrow.
Yeah, but I didn't want too much of a couchlock crop. I'm hoping more for a more headstone. These were grown 16 hours north of California, just pass the Can/US border...=)
Well I finally took more pics of my BC seed company Big Blue strain grow box.
They were planted Aug 3rd so they are like 6 weeks in.
I had a bit of heat problem because I left the door closed to long so the tips got a bit brown.
I don't know what happened to these leafs, they...
Hey boys and girls, I figured all my gals were ready to come down so I cut them all except two plants that needed a few more days. The purple really came out nicely (though I wish the buds themselves were purple).
These stayed up, too many pistals are still white...
I didn't really keep track of the flowering days unfortunately, but I grew them outside so the cold nights helped the purple come out. I would probably guess something like 7 weeks of flowering?
My surefire way of germinating is to put the seeds in a folded damp paper towel then into a plastic ziplock container. Put it in a cupboard and check every 24 hours. I've never had a seed not germinate.
