Temp-2V http://aeroponicsnmore.com/climate-control-ventilation-c-23_5/temp-2v-fan-speed-control-variable-idle-setpoint-p-181 This controller has seperate settings for day/night, and it PERFECTLY controls my tent temps. I've used this controller for about 2 years now. No need to buy a Air...

If you're renting ... 2 big tents (with full grown plants in them) can be dimantled and stashed in the back of 2 big Hauls in 9 hours (with smoke breaks). I wish I didn't know that :(

The secret to running a lot of buckets is to use a little extra hose. I really recommend taking your buckets down to the machine shop and upgrading your hose line to 3/4" (make holes in bucket and controller 1" diameter for grommet). Short of that ... imagine the roots getting down into the...

I think you're right about the MH. It could be worth swapping out one of the bulbs for a few hours. Yeah ;) Thats a plan. They're looking ready right now! But the calender says 2 more weeks. I'll get good porn shoot soon ... I could do it now ... eat first ... hmmm .... nothing on tv ...

Great pictures! Can you tell me EXACTLY how you got the pics. Was it taken on a DSLR or a point and shoot with a macro mode? I have a pretty nice DSLR with a flash and some tubes. Any recommended settings? I'm harvesting in about 2 weeks, so I could take them outside for a photo shoot just...

Here is a great explanation of ventillation: http://www.bghydro.com/bgh/static/articles/0606_vent.asp Here's another link with diagrams: http://www.jasons-indoor-guide-to-organic-and-hydroponics-gardening.com/exhaust-fan-setup.html

Definately you should be PULLING air through the filter.... pass through the fan ... push the air into the attic. Failing to put the air in the attic means you recirculate the bad air, which will run you short of (natural) Co2 and high on humidity.

Awesome job! I would watch those ballast timers closely. Mine went out after a couple months and would randommly NOT turn off the lights. GRRRRR! IDK why, but even after I had them replaced, they did it again. Now I use a Sentinal 220v power switch that runs off a seperate 110v timer.

Dimmable ballasts represent the most current technology. When you're spending top dollar, you definately want the lastest technology imo.

+1 what he said. Ventilation explained: http://www.bghydro.com/bgh/static/articles/0606_vent.asp and http://www.jasons-indoor-guide-to-organic-and-hydroponics-gardening.com/exhaust-fan-setup.html The most commonly overlooked tool in this type of setup (open-loop) is the fan's speed...

Some inline fans handle the attenuation better than others. Vortex fans are pretty good. A crappy dimmer will screw up a crappy fan pretty quick. If you want a good speed controller...

Mine are all dimmable, but no I've never changed the settings. Honestly... I'm scared, and they work great, so why shake the cage? I take that back ... I ran two of them at 750 watts for 1 day once. I thought they were starting to burn a section, but the distance was fine so I added some...

Lumatek 1000s (8 of them) all going great for 3+ years.

Definately you're better w/ 2 hoods ... no matter the wattage. An enclosed hood is best, but it's useless unless it's properly ducted. Heat is always a major issue, unless you've prepared for it. So your first calculation/concern should be the final height of your plants. Things like movers are...

I upgraded my 2gal "ebb n grow" to 3 gallon buckets. I'm still using the original controller, but it seems to be working really well. MUCH better than 2gal imo. I'm at 5 weeks now, and normally I'm seeing serious Magnezium deficiencies. Not this time! I don't really know what the 3gal is...

Mixing organics and non-organics can be a problem just because there are things you can't add to kill bs. You already know that. I would reconsider the organics and their pros n cons. The new ebb n gro buckets (im not talking about the 5 gal Monster buckets) raise the floor above the hose...

Here is some good info on ventilation: http://www.jasons-indoor-guide-to-organic-and-hydroponics-gardening.com/exhaust-fan-setup.html An enclosed hood is simply that, enclosed in glass but with duct holes on the ends. That allows you to vent the heat generated by your light bulb. Walk into...

1. Place the fans outside of your closet (preferrably in the attic) 2. Definately use a carbon filter. Place it inside the closet, near the top. Mount the filter --> ducting --> enclosed light hood --> ducting --> inline fan up in the attic -----> ducting to outside air. Duct to a roof...

1. Use a grow tent 2. Dont put rubbermaid buckets over your plants. 3. Dont put your grow tent in a warm area. 4. CFL is fine for vegitative growth, but not good enough to flower good bud. 5. Purchase feminized seeds so you won't deal with dudes. You'll need: 1. grow tent 2. digital...
