and if that dose not work you can cut a vent over the door and put a inline fan to it and some tubing
isn't that what i already said, with some crafty revising..:?:
there's no way you can take a 4 in. hole saw and just MAKE a ventilation hole?
stick 4in ducting, conect it to an inline fan and carbon filter..
BAM you've got circulating air..

i see making immature comments to other's has been present in these fabulous past two month's of having you here in the RIU..

i suppose i could bring up other awesome shit post's you've delightfully brought to us.. that would be a complete waste of bandwidth though.

keep up the negativity alex, I'm confident you'll find out soon that negativity is not welcome..

Thanks guys. Don't get all defensive and upset over other's comments. If you do, please message that person and chew their ass. I hate flame wars. Keep the (peace) .

I hurt my White Widow by not giving it enough breathing room (it's not relevant to this journal, but I thought I'd show you the new "veg" room) that I setup last night. It's nothing spectacular, honestly.

No, but seriously. Thanks for the compliments. It really means a lot.

A friend of mine suggested I get earth worms for my soil? I've never heard of anyone doing that. He says it will help aerate the soil. Anyone have any tips or suggestions for this?

lol your the one jumping on me its funny how some people think the only way to look smart is by making other people look bad when you were wrong out the gate..... the sign of a real man is the ability to admit when he is wrong guess your laking that ohh well cant help every one.....and i think what i said and what you said are totally different i didn't even read your post bro...... i saw he had a light issue in his first video gave my honest opinion on how to fix it.....you had something to say and did not even understand my statement...just like everyone else that's trying to prove how smart they are by nit picking and putting other people down or at least attempting lol..................and his heating issue you told him to cut a 4 inch diameter hole..were?.....how was he going to disguise it?... at least my way its disguised and getting fresh air from the house not hot ass air from the attic........and far far as me trolling i dont troll...think you need to take some time and reflect on your actions.....im done wit you tho if you still wanna go back and fourth be my guest itll be falling on def ears :finger:...


:bigjoint:As far as the crusifix goes its pritty cool looking :clap: and you got allot of light on it. But for CFL's to work the best you need to have them within 2-4 inches from your plant. you can go to ace hardware and get some shop lights for 5 bux and 5 26watt CFL's for $11 if you cant bring that crucifix closer i suggest add some side lighting..--

a dryer ducting tube is an average 4 in...
the location of the ventilation hole is up to GreenNerd, we don't know the house, or growing area it is in.
venting to the attic is better than no ventilation at all, plus he's under stairs dumb ass, the attic is ways up from "under the stairs":wall:
also when i grew under my stairs, one of the walls backed my refrigerator. so i just drilled and vented to the back of the fridge.. kept the stealth element your looking for..
ill try find some of those pictures, that was a good 8 years ago..

i've never tried earthworms, but ive used wormcastings before. i can see earthworms being beneficial to your grow. soil microorganisms and plant roots can benefit from the extra air and water. earthworms will plow tunnels creating easy access for water and air..

this is an organic method and i think using different nutrient supplements may damage or effect the worms health..

you can just pick up 1$ can of worms from a local fishing/pro shop every so offten if the worms dye off.. compost!:leaf:

good luck.. what are on the other side of your walls?
lowrider2000 did have a good idea with that ducting cover..:clap:
no one would ever be able to tell the difference..

Thanks for the tips! I am def. going to get a vent on the door and block it with some sort of mesh material (to block light). I'm really hoping these plants finish flowering, because my WW is running out of space, and I'm not comfortable yanking the plant around. I know it may produce more of a yield, but I feel that it isn't natural as to how the plant was intended to grow (I'm a bit of a hippie, I suppose). But then again... maybe I'm just an ignorant pussy who's too chicken to grow differently. I've been told by a few of my closest friends that LST would be highly appropriate for the WW. The other plants are just bag seed, and honestly, I'm so tired of waiting for them to flower. I really can't stand the CFLs, and I'm so ready for better lights!

Anyways, please checkout my other threads. I think you may find them interesting.

Peace

WW responds very well to LST. It will make all the difference if you are running out of room. As for fluffy buds, that's cfls for you. You won't regret the better light but you have to get your circulation issues sorted out first. The buds look nice and ripe aside from not being as tight as you would like.

You plants in the video look very similar to mine. I thought they were ugly & I was doing a crap job. Stunted their growth, neuit burn, terrible lighting (shoplights only) but in the end, the bud was great! I think you may end being happy with the final product because you grew it yourself & if its like mine was, great smoke.

Good luck to ya & take what you've learned & apply it to the next one :)
