I LOVE THE PURP. AINT ON THAT HyDRO LEVEL YET

Kinda wish I started flowering a lil bit earlier but oh well. I did a thorough job of cleaning the res and underneath the res lid , where it especially started to build up!

For flowering I will use Carboload, Big Bud, Overdrive, Hygrozyme, and my own sweetner based with necter and molasses.
So tell us what you think. Oh yea, I started with a low ppm of 1250 and ph5.6

plants look good and i like your setup. what are your temps like and are you just using the intake fan to pull air from the room the tent is in?

The temps are: Day 74F/Night65F
The air is being drawn in from outside the room which is alway cool since its underground in a cellar. Since I live in the bay area its always cold. thanks

nice, i've always used soil but recently after reading some articles i'm considering going hydro for some clones. my only other question is how loud is a setup like this because that would be my main concern.

I'd have to say the air pump has gotta be the loudest part in my setup, other than that 2nd would be exaust fan_but you can always build box dampers around them to keep them quiet and hang them from bungee chords to stop vibrations noises as well.

how cold would you say it is in your cellar. i only ask becuase im trying to find a place cool enough in my house to draw air from so i need to get an idea of what to look for to keep it at around those temps which is ideal.

My celar stays around 69 / 70 F day and night. So with that as my intake temp, my room temps are high 75 F/ Low 65 F. guess you can say a perfect 10 degree difference between day & night which is what you should shoot for.

ok awesome, thanks for the replies and help. ill still be checking in to see your urkles' when they're done, that bud in your avatar looks beautiful.

spagetti- your grow looks great. keep up the good work and ill be back in to see the next update!

odor control? I use a charcoal filter that sucks clean air into my 2 600w's, as well as the air in the room, and on the other side of the hoods it gets pulled out by a big ass inline fan(6"can fan)

gonna bring you guys an update tomorrow/will be week 4
