Hey DoeEyed, Great tip- thanks. This sounds much better than my previous plastic bag method.

Hey thanks tmaster2 and Tunda for the quick replies. I'm going to take your advice and put it under lights right now. Much appreciated!

Thanks for any help on this, I've got to decide soon. I just stuck a germinated seed into soil in a party cup. I can either 1) put it in a dark space that's about 60F, or 2) stick it under CFLs which will raise the temp to about 70F. Which would be better? I've had good success covering the...

I've got the same issue but in a larger box (about 2' x 3'). Didn't have much luck with the electric blanket but since your space is smaller I hope it works out. Someone recommended these air dryers so I'm going to give the smaller 500 model a shot. The dryer may help with humidity issues too...

I'm using a Panasonic Whisperline fan in a box about half your size and it works great. Then again I'm using CFLs so there's not much heat to deal with. How would you set up your filter? The problem with mine is that I'm using a carbon tray which sits on top of the fan with the fan unit...

Thanks for the feedback Chipp. The CFLs are on order and the LR2 will be chopped soon so the SLH with have more horizontal if not vertical room. Maybe I'll drop sidelights all around it. I'll look into LST-- I tried to test-bend the main stem but it's pretty stout except near the top...

Chipp, Wow. Wow. Wow. Just amazing. Thanks for sharing so much information about your grow, it's very helpful and inspirational too. I've got a CFL first grow going, about 59 days in with a Lowryder#2 and a still-vegging SLH. My friend was supposed to flower the SLH at his place but he...

Cool-- thanks man. I'm going to try the computer fans again and if they don't work then I'll go for a Vortex or something similar.

Thanks for the pic and thread link. That muflfler box is too big for my space but it's a cool system. I've been through that link but I'll review it for ideas.

Thanks for the feedback-- that's another recommendation for using computer fans. My filter sounds a lot like yours (the one with the activated carbon cache)- I'll try it again and see what happens. I've got at least four 4" fans laying around and plenty of 12v adapters so it would be great if...

Hey there stinkbudd1, Mine didn't seem to pull very well but I'm going to try them again before buying anything else. Thanks man.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to look into this. I guess I was turned off initially because the ones I've heard are so loud, and I didn't really want to shell out for both a fan and a speed controller, but it may be worth the money.

Robert, thanks for the feedback. I've got some space issues though and if possible I'd like to avoid another box. But if it's the only way, then I'll do it. Maybe I should rephrase the question: Does a semi-cheap or reasonably priced quiet 4" inline fan exist? Thanks again all.

Thanks for the suggestion giantart- but the computer fans I've tried (120mm) haven't been able to pull through my carbon filter.

Ok thanks- I'll continue searching the archives.
