well with all 3 fans running, and the 250cfm inline exhaust fan going temps hold steady at 89*f with it closed up which is still kinda high but i guess ill have to make it work for now. Later on i plan to buy a small portable airconditioner and hook it up to a thermostat that has a 20amp outlet...

I just realized i never posted a pic of the actual flowering room i built from a distance so here it is.

Just went out today and bought a shit ton of distilled water beings i used up most of my stock. This should last me another month or so or itleast through 2 more nute changes. I need to do a nute change today beings i like to do it every 10-12 days (just a personal preference) and also because i...

Well as promised heres some new pics of the progress so far. This first pic is the oldest plant which as i stated before was sprouted on 7/30/07, as of now all the plants are showing some minor nute burn beings i didnt have a tds meter for awhile there and was just sort of eyeballing it which...

Well the plants are lookin pretty good, i finally got a tds meter today so now i just need to figure out how to use it properly and i should be good to go. The plants have some minor nute burn on them which ill try and show in the next pics i should be getting up either tonight or tomorrow...

I have a quick question about ppm/ec meters beings im planning on picking one up this weekend. I read the faq's on it and i just wanted to clarify im understanding this right. Say i mix up a new batch of nutes and take a ppm reading and it reads x amount. Then the next day it reads higher then...

I bought it from super seller on ebay for like 40$, cant remember what the shipping was but it wasnt that bad, im sure i got a pretty good deal, and they seem to be working great so far.

At the moment i have 5 plants vegging, there was six, but one died because it was still a small sprout and one of natures pests founds it way into my grow room and killed it. I got revenge when i found him though, he had a nice trip down the toilet heh

no your right about it not being good to expose roots or the resevoir water to light beings it will cause alge to form, but this was only for a few secs to get a pic which is harmless. They arent exposed to light what so ever on a normal basis though :)

Ok i finally figured out how to get you guys some better pics so here goes: This first pic is the flower room i built, and the 6 plant bubbleponics system: This pic is the closet i converted over into my veg room with the 4 plant drip system and the six 30w 6500k cfl's: This pic is a...

Well i have decided to start a journal to document my progress throughout this fun filled journey :). Every thing basically started on 7-30-07 as far as being done with the flower/veg room and the seeds and other needed equipment arriving so heres some pics to show a little progress. This...
