the duct tape is only holding up the flex ducting itself, my carbon filter is suspended with chains and the light is hung with ratchet straps

thanks for the compliments. I have learned a lot from cruizing this forum and decided it was time to give back

a 4 inch fan will pull plenty of air through that filter.the cfm that the filter is rated for is the max it can handle, not the recommended amount for effectiveness. I have three tents, plus a veg room with a 600 metal halide, a stick built bud room with 2x600hps, and a hot tub (that thing...

a few more plants plus the recommended security system :)

there are a few pictures of plants that my tents, set up in the manner described above, have produced.

Lately i have been answering a lot of questions about setting up a grow tent, particularly a lot of questions about how to get tempuratures dialed in and how to control odor. Instead of responding to each individual thread, i have decided to put my personal experience into one thread to help...

you let the soil sit, or "cook" to allow the ammendments to break down and become bioavailable, they need time for bacteria and fungus to break them down. think of ammendments as your food, soil microbs as your digestive system, and the plant as your body. 2 weeks is not enough time. 4 weeks...

low 80's is fine. over 85 is where you start to risk heat stress. and vegging plants seem to handle heat better than budding plants, at least in my experience

heat coming from the light heats the inside of the tent. so if you take air from inside the tent to cool the light, you are using air that has already been heated.

the tent will run significantly cooler if the light and carbon filter have parallel ducting and their own fans. I have a 4x4 tent with a 600 also. the light is cooled by a 6 inch booster fan. the carbon filter/ventilation is handled by a 4 inch inline fan. I have a speed controller on the 4 inch...

it would be pretty darn hard to give seedlings light burn without an hid light. that being said backing off the light for the first week or so is just fine, not because they might burn but because they just dont utilize much light until they have a few leaves to do so. your air temps and...

I have used a few different hoods and for use in a small tent I like the yield master 2 from sunlight supply. most hydro shops carry them for less than $100 and they have a good seal on the glass, which is where cheaper hoods skimp out.

starting to count when you flip to 12/12 may not give you your literal flowering time buts its the only way to count days without having to use any judgement.

I to am searching for a high cbd plant to grow. im gonna try and get to the ann arbor clone club this weekend and grab something proven from them. I also have a pack of "pennywise" from tga subcool. the lineage of this strain is harlquin x jack the ripper. I know lots of folks around here bash...

a high velocity inline fan pulls air through the carbon filter and out of the tent. the light ducting and fan are 6 inch and the ventilation are 4 inch. this works extremely well for both temperature and odor control.

no. the light and carbon filter are totally seperate. I have a booster fan deticated to cooling the light. it pulls air from outside the tent, through the hood, and back out of the tent. I have seperat set of ducting for the carbon filter with its own fan on a speed controller. this allows me to...

im sure your right but the point is he should be working for me, not against me.

this police chief (as well as the others) really need to understand that they work for us, the voters. My taxes pay his salary, so he is my employee.

it sounds like this might be your first grow. if that is the case I strongly recommend running fewer larger plants. if you pack 12 or 16 plants in there it might bump the yield up a bit and it will reduce the needed veg time, but you will have 16 plants all with I dividual needs. they will need...

I run a 4x4 with a 600. I use a 6inch booster fan to cool the light and 4inch fan/carbon filter to handle the smell and ventilation. I have done well running 9 plants in 5gal pots but prefer running 4 plants in 7 gals. this makes for a long veg time but I have a seperate veg area.
