Good thread, I'm subbed :eyesmoke: I am looking to build a box within a few months. Currently in the research mode, but I was wondering if ronpaulio's post was correct? From everything I have read, a 150 should be able to cover a 4sq foot canopy quite well, which in theory should be able to...

Heat stress has caused the doom of just about all my plants. This was roughly $150.oo fuck up -pardon the french. I will be reconverting these units to 12/12 bag seed. I will post up a link to the new thread once achieved. -X

Hello everyone, Got some new updates, questions, and pictures. Also, I will probably be formatting my posts a bit different. I will be going according to days to keep track better for the both of us. As for the updates, I have settled on just 2x30W (plus 1x13W if temps allow it). The temps...

Quick update: Switched from 3x30W 2700k to 3x30W 6500k since I read that Auto's did better on 17 days of veg light. I don't know if this is officially true, but it allowed me to break in my 6500's :) I did think, blissfully, that the 'cool' light would be 'cooler'. This is utterly wrong...

Nice grow mate. I was wondering what your temps were stabilizing at. I have a dual PC grow, and I can not seem to get the temps to stay consistently under 90F. I was wondering since we are using about the same amount of wattage what your temps were running. Good luck with the clones too :)...

Time for the full on update I have been promising for the past two months. Good news is 10/10 grew tap roots *AK5 barely broke seed and only grew about a mm*, which is great germination odds. After about four days it seems we have some solid results for sprouts too. In the blueberry unit...

Hello everyone, Sorry for the lack of updates, but it comes at a good cause. I have completely finished both my units, successfully germ'd 9-10 of the seeds (only one AK remains), the successful 9 are all in soil, and about six of those nine have sprouted! This is the second-third day that...

Hello all, I just got my pH meter in and was about to water my seeds. I was reading the directions and it says that after you adjust the meter with the pH solution that you always need to keep it in water. I was wondering how I should store my meter after testing? Do I have to keep it in...

Well everyone I awoke to some glorious news this mourning. I checked on the unit at 130pm today and I am delighted to say that the temps reading was only 81F :) After checking on them four hours later she was still reading at 83F. I will finally say that this is a dream come true! Earlier...

So I am posting a bit premature but it comes at a good cause. After checking it at 130pm today I added in some mylar to see if the dark spots were absorbing heat. After adding in the mylar I checked in on the unit three hours in; 89F; then roughly six hours in; 88F. I figured that this was...

Well everyone, I woke up today at 1pm which is just 30 minutes off of the 12 hour marker. Risen with excitement I went to check on the temps of my case. The horrible news is that the all time high was 96F, but the good news is that it averaged 89F. I have no idea how, why, or when she...

Alright readers time for a quick update. Seems I have finally made some progress. I worked on the first unit all day today and just fifteen minutes ago got her to about 99% 'invisible'. I had to add another trap light for my exhaust fan (hoping that it won't effect the temps to much), added a...

Hello everyone, Got some, good newsed, quick updates for everyone. I got my pH meter in today and my blu stix in wednesday. Had a fairly busy weekend so I was only able to work on the comps one night [bit upset about this, but tonight I wasn't feeling well]. The blu stix are working just...

Quick update: I have ordered the pH meter posted in the link above. I might have to get a solution, but I am hoping that some solution will be sent with it. The reusable adhesive is, also, on its way. Everything should be in this week, thus, this week should be my final week in setting...

Welcome back everyone, I have had a few slight set backs. First off the reusable adhesive that v12 had suggested for my cracks isn't sold anywhere near me. Thus, I just got done ordering a few oz online. It is estimated to arrive this Wednesday or Thursday. Also, I will be needing a ph...

So the result are in...kinda. Seems as though after in taking some thc, and then checking on the temps, I inaccurately thought it had been 28 hrs when it had only been 16. Good news though after 16 hours the highest was 85F, and averaging 84F. This is excellent news even though I shut off the...

Happy new years everyone. I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe holidays. I actually have been working fairly hard on getting my units up and running. I was able to get a few more supplies and, finally, a large right angle. The second unit is currently looking the best, as I said before...

Hello to all. Been a night or two since I last posted and seems I am only a few inches further. The first unit I had to construct not using a right angle, which consisted of me measuring and eye balling the cuts. This, sadly, turned out to be a pretty bad idea as it allowed to much light...

Welcome back everyone, I have some really good news and some bad news. I, also, have finished heat temp test results. 3x30W+1x3in fan+1x120mm fan= 90F highest; 88F average (12hrs of testing)....3x30W+2x3in fans= 82F highest (**6hrs of testing). This is great news because even if I have a...

Good news everyone. I received the 12v adapters right after xmas. I have hooked one up to test out the more power and it really helps. I am currently testing 3x30W with 1x3in fan and 1x 120mm fan as exhaust. I just completed the testing of 2x30W ending with a high of 80F and averaging 78F so...
