    Borbor's Perpetual Journal

    Decided to start a journal just for the here and now, it'd be nice to have a place to come post pics and stuff again. I did my first journal (in my sig) from february to june/july of this year. Had a great time with it and haven't stopped growing at all, just stopped posting it a lot on...

    borbor's big upgrade, HPS is for suckers!

    just couldn't resist showing off now that it's all set up I started out this year pretty much in a 4x4 gorilla lite line, with a 315 watt LEC fixture and added some area 51 leds when I started flowering. Certainly every dollar I've saved myself with all the free pot has been put right back into...

    First serious grow! LEC 315 in a 4x4 tent (Philips elite agro CMH)

    After much money spent, and months of planning, seeds are finally planted! I did a pretty crappy CFL grow that ended with a 400 watt HPS for the last couple of months, but other than that this is my first grow of my own. A few of my friends in real life grow though, I've been around a couple of...

    too late to reveg?

    I'm putting a plant in my garden to start it a little earlier than I intended, a friend was either gonna give it to me or trash it, he just sprouted too many, wound up with more girls than he needed but left this one in the tent, he didn't really take care of it much, since he didn't intend on...

    too much negative pressure?

    While setting up my grow (which has been a monumental undertaking) I've continuously told myself to do everything absolutely perfect, might not have a large space, but enough I'm sure I could be pulling out some top shelf bud. but it's getting so expensive, I was wondering, I have an intake and...

    catch-22 w/ carbon filter

    Smell is a BIG deal in my situation. In an effort to convince the landlord to let me grow, I bought a big, badass carbon filter to show that I'm not fuckin' around, there won't be a smell. I think I went too far. The tent is a secret jardin DR90, so it's a 3x3x6. The maximum weight support...

    filter/flange install

    Just bought my carbon filter. Did not expect to have to drill the flange onto the filter like this, I've never drilled into metal before. So before I fuck up I have one major question that wasn't really answered in the instructional video on can filter's website. Do I drill through the gasket...

    fan speed control

    I was stupid last month when I bought one of my fans and bought a "speedster" fan speed controller with it. since then I've read a lot of different confusing things about this. Will this work with either of my two fans well? People say the motor will hum, and the life of the fan is reduced, but...

    too many amps?

    I was just poking around, wondering a bit if I might use a lot of my circuit's power when I start my garden, since when I look at the box in the garage it says the circuit for my bedroom is also the circuit for a bathroom and another bedroom we don't use much. So I made up a scenario where all...

    Which beans to pop for a first grow?

    This is gonna be my first real grow aside from the abomination in my signature, I'm trying to decide which strains out of my first order from attitude would be good for someone with a little bit of firsthand and a lot of secondhand experience (depending on your definition of friend, I have 3-4...

    overkill for such a small setup?

    I posted something similar in the newb section a couple days ago, nobody cares. 400 CFM active air 6" exhaust fan 347 CFM vortex s-line 6" intake fan I plan on using both of them with speed controllers around 60% speed for noise. my tent is 3x3x9 ft, using a 315 watt CMH (I'm thinking about...

    timers/surge protectors

    got a few more noob questions real quick for you guys- gotta make sure I'm safe before I plug anything into the wall! 1. Should everything I use be plugged into a surge protector? I'm probably going to be plugging my light into a different circuit than the rest of my stuff, so should I have that...

    Living in CO, trying to find a place to grow

    I'll probably be able to start my 3x3 tent anyway, since I'm staying with momma until I can find a place to move where I can grow. I'm paying some rent and all that, we'll probably work out an agreement with a yes or no about growing pretty soon, but of course, no 24 year old really wants to...

    freebies?

    never used a seedbank before, nobody I know in real life has, it's just been the same couple of mothers and a dispensary clone here or there for all my friends, but I finally get to start my own grow, and I wanna find a decent indica, as well as pick up a couple of christmas gift strains to give...

    ventilation & electrical questions

    I put this up in the newbie section but I don't think I'm going to get much of a response there, I can't find a way to delete it or I'd just move it here, but here we go: I'm currently stuffing a 3x3 tent with equipment before I get started growing. I've read a good bit about ventilation and my...

    simple ventilation and electrical questions

    guess I'll just jump right into em I'm currently stuffing a 3x3 tent with equipment before I get started growing. I've read a good bit about ventilation and my big question for my set up is will I want to use passive intake or get a separate intake fan? I'll probably be buying another...

    best pen for herbs

    Anybody have a recommendation for a "pen" vape for herb, not extracts that'll work consistently? I had a magic flight launch box once, it seemed half okay at first but not worth the 130$ total I spent on it, not worth half of that. My goals are effectiveness (how much of an effect will I...

    borbor's 400watt hps laborboratory!

    It's time to move out of my previous thread here and put one here outside the CFL section! I got the HPS quite some time ago, I've just been lazy, and now my first plant is harvested, so it's time for a new thread. Here's some stats and pics: 400 watt HPS, 2 26watt 6500k cfls and one 42watt...
