    My new room (a blank slate)

    the wife and I decided instead to start a little smaller. We're going to have a 2x6 grow area our first time through. So instead, for lights we are giving the new Diamond Series from Advanced LED the nod. Have three of them coming in this Friday or Monday. The side by side comparison grows...

    My new room (a blank slate)

    Thanks Nemorouno. I had planned on it, but we changed our mind and have decided to go with the Diamond Series lights from AdvancedLED. (I hope that's ok to say that.. I can't find a list of sponsors for the forum, but no disrespect meant to any sponsors)

    My new room (a blank slate)

    ah.. so the ballasts will get to hot in the attic in the summer? hadn't thought about that. I guess I'll keep them in the room then.

    My new room (a blank slate)

    thanks man. I will be exhausting the room into the attic. And my hope is I can pull enough air from the A/C vent to keep the room cool, and supplied with enough air. I have thought about adding a second vent in the room from the A/C ? if anyone out there has a room like this, I'd love to know...

    My new room (a blank slate)

    So the wifey & I cleaned out a room we were just using for storage, and will begin putting our new grow room together. The first thing I am going to do, (and the only thing I have been able to come to a certain conclusion on) is to cover the walls with Mylar or PandaFilm. So.. if this...

    Carnivoras Plant Question

    yep. carnivores are not easy. basically they need to grow in a bog. I've got 3 different pitchers in a bog with two traps. traps are a little harder to keep than pitchers. They wont do much on your bug problem, but they are fun to grow. get you a big pot that is shallow, fill it with...
