    mylar???????

    Punk always has great advise! Mylar IMHO sucks. It's hard to work with, it can mess up on you in a heart beat trying to install it. Bump it by accident and your taping tears, loose mylar flaps in your fans...uggghhhh. Paint it flat white, reflects jes as well and guess what, every coupla...

    Is a grow box neccessary or could i just grow in bedroom

    Dazbeast, Make sure u plan ur venting well. R u venting to the outside or inside? Outside saves costly scrubbers, but may be more finicky to set up (holes in walls etc), but best for odor control. As to size punk is on the money, ur height is critical, i would aim for a square and to...

    DIYer looking for some ideas.

    Mine cost like $15: Clothesline wheel/reel, 2 drilled holes. Some air craft cable with wire locks. 2 Pulleys. 1 Bolt and 1 recessed nut with spicked feet. The beauty of this is of course both sides rise evenly with every turn of the reel, and it's smooth so it doesn't jostle the $100...

    Is a grow box neccessary or could i just grow in bedroom

    A simple 2x4 frame, place in the corner of your room with some panda wrap (poly with white on one side, black on the other) would work to section off your room. That way u can make a room inside the bedroom any size u want. As it is placed in the corner u only need to build 2 walls. In those...

    Hooking up 6" fan

    Hethro, I looked at the website and they offer the plug as an accessory, (go figure the plug to power the product is an "accessory -:-?). Anyway from what i can see it's a non-standard plug configuration, which means you prob can't borrow a plug from another device. The unit is probably...

    A Simple TDS/PPM Question??

    Thanks Mustang 519! That makes a lot of sense (slaps forehead!) Moving outdoor to my first indoor there is sooo much more to attend too, anyway this gives me what I need to get my feeding rates under control! Kayuman

    A Simple TDS/PPM Question??

    Many thanks Skokie and yes thats why I said something like molasses as it was not adding to the NPK totals. While I'm on about this subject I have another noobish nute question. I have been told that the nute formulas and ppm's as set out by the manufacturer are based on a hydro set up...

    A Simple TDS/PPM Question??

    Hi Folks, Ok I need a small clarification cause I can't seem to relsolve this myself. For arguements sake lets say I'm a couple of weeks into vegging and following the nute chart it states that I need to make a nute mix at some ppm value, lets say 500 for an easy number. At the same time I...

    IntaKe and ExhAusT??

    Hey Starzy, Yes to all you ask..lol. You need intake air to cool the room AND it must exchange the entire grow chamber approx every 5 minutes. You need to exhuast out hot, stale air. You need to circ the air while it is in the grow chamber. Simplified outline: Use one fan as your...

    Cooling my room is impossible

    Now that is really cool :):):) I like it. Looks like a shit load of equipment and hoses though, which could be challenging in a SCROG.

    Grow box qestions

    Yeah Punk brings up a good point. I also looked at those smaller inlines and yes a 80 cfm also lives in my clone cabinet :lol:, but I really don't think they'll cut cooling a 600 Watter! Not only that but look at the motor on it, you want that little tiny thing to drive 18 hrs a day for x...

    Cooling my room is impossible

    Yeah 420OldSchoolDJ420 brings up a very good point. Get your temp, humidity,air, lighting and feeding down before you venture into the C02 realm. This is obviously a new build, as you fire it up you will find all sorts of tweaks and adjustments will need to happen to get the basics levelled out.

    Cooling my room is impossible

    I see what your saying, but, A sealed room is a basic requirement for proper venting, enviro control and odor control, CO2 or not, sealing still needs to happen. However I think it would help if you though of CO2 as an enviroment additive rather than try to use it as a mechanism of air...

    Cooling my room is impossible

    Ahh there we are...... the bingo moment. Your having a heat build up issue, your not cooling/venting the ROOM! e Even though your cooling your light there is still lots of raidant heat form the top of the light (try and put your hand on it). Anything electric adds heat to a room, even that...

    Cooling my room is impossible

    Ok so I jes wanna make sure I am reading this correctly. You are using one fan, this one fan pulls ac air from a bedroom, through 3 bends, 15 ' of accordian duct, through the cool tube and finally exits into the attic space. But, if I am reading this correctly, and maybe I'm missing it...

    ventillation problems

    Just some condierations for your venting issues. The best route would be to the attic, HOWEVER, you cant just stop there. Dumping warm, moist air into your attic space will not make you a happy person, espcially if u have winter months where u live - mould, mildew, smelly and funky...

    Grow box qestions

    I use a 600 W HPS and a 425 in line Vortex to cool the room and another 425 in line Vortex to cool the light (there on Rheostats so I can dial one down and the other up). Even with those puppies staying below 30C and into a nice 24 C has been a real challenge. BTW it's not only cooling your...

    Where roughly do you call home? Southern-ish by any chance?

    Cooling my room is impossible

    Hey Couple of more facts would be helpful, but based on what you have provided I'll take a starting stab at it. I read that your venting the grow chamber with a 425 cfm inline, pulling (you are pulling air and not pushing right?) air in from another ac cooled bedroom. How far is this duct...
