    Anyone ever used cold winter air to cool lights?

    I've tried this with little to no success. As previously mentioned, condensation will be your biggest issue. I could not combat it effectively and eventually threw in the towel. Whatstrain: you kind of have the right idea if I'm reading you correctly. I have a sealed room within another room...

    Air conditioning in sealed room help please

    As far as I know only the dual hose portable units work on the same principle shown above. Otherwise the single hose unit does in fact pull air out of your room.

    Air conditioning in sealed room help please

    The only reason I've ever seen mine trip is when the controller cycles the AC off then back on again without giving the compressor enough time to cool. You usually have to set the "deadband" on your controller long enough so that this does not happen. I wouldn't necessarily recommend you remove...

    Air conditioning in sealed room help please

    The reset switch acts simply as an inline breaker and usually shouldn't affect operation unless it is tripped by drawing too much power. Cycling the unit on and off with a controller should work fine, as my AC's have reset switches and I've never had a prob. Holy shit window units certainly are...

    Air conditioning in sealed room help please

    You are most likely going to be much better off with a window type AC unit. They are much more efficient, can run nearly constant, and are generally much more effective than a comparable portable type unit you have listed above. Plus they are also generally comparatively cheaper than...

    Proper PH Pen Storage

    Not so sure about storing in 7. Hanna specifically states to store in ph storage solution, or ph4 buffer solution. Both of which have a ph of 4.0 They also specifically state not to store in distilled or de-ionized water, regardless of the ph. I've had the best luck storing in ph storage...

    Proper PH Pen Storage

    you sure about storing in ph down? I don't know for sure but I've always been told it's too acidic and will destroy the electrode. That said, I'm not going to try it!

    Proper PH Pen Storage

    I would use ph storage solution, worst case ph4 sample solution as bluelab suggests this as well. Everything I have ever read says never to use distilled or de-ionized water. The following quote is from Hanna's website: Never store your electrode in water DO NOT store your pH electrode in...

    Need Help With My Roots Organic Soil

    As per Ed Rosenthal, Roots organics soil has a very low ph of around 4.5 I had what sounds like many of the same problems as you with this stuff, as have many on these forums. I further tested the roots soil first in a water/soil slurry, then with a bluelab soil ph meter. And seems as if...

    4 Week Old Casey Jones Deficiency?

    The ph of the roots organic straight out of the bag is supposedly around 4.5 or so. I'm transplanting into larger pots today, using approximately 30-40% super soil in the bottom. Just tested the super soil in a slurry mix with straight RO water with a ph of 7. It tested to roughly 6.5-7. I...

    4 Week Old Casey Jones Deficiency?

    Back to the top...This forum moves quick! I may have contributed to the problem with slightly overwatering, particularly last week. I've since backed off. Any other advice or possibilities? Thanks again in advance.

    4 Week Old Casey Jones Deficiency?

    Thanks for the replies guys I appreciate it! I kinda doubted it was nute burn as I've used virtually nothing but calmag at the rate of 5ml/gl. I added 1 ml/gl floragro 1 watering last week thinking it was deficient, didn't really seem to help or hurt. I do think it may be a ph prob as haloman...

    4 Week Old Casey Jones Deficiency?

    These were clones taken roughly 4 weeks ago. Used rapid rooter cubes, transplanted into a mix of roots organic and roughly 30% roots 707. Watered with RO ph of 7 PPM 40 for first 2 weeks. Started using Calmag roughly 2 weeks ago at a rate of 5ml/gal. They are under T5's. This popped up about a 2...

    How To Assemble Air-Pots

    Just as a heads up make sure you install the bottom grate correctly. It's supposed to rest above the bottom 2 rows of the largest air holes. The air holes get slightly larger from top to bottom. The larger pots actually have a row of cones that protrude further than any others, this is where...

    36 ft of head is pretty high. How many nozzles you plan on runnin on that system? I too am playing around with different pump sizes. I'd imagine you'd be able to power quite a large system with that much pressure. Somebody feel free to chime in, this is relatively new territory for me as...

    Best ponics spray nozzle I have found.....

    I shy'ed away from the T nozzles as I tried them in the past with little success. By the looks of it you've really done a lot of trial and error with this. Much appreciated.
