Hi, Your boy Sir-smokes-every-day here. It's day 18 as of me starting this journal. As far as specs go, I will do them post by post for I am sitting here impatiently awaiting for my plants to wake up. This isn't my first grow, but I hope it'll be my first successful grow. So anyways, Lets grow away!

Built it myself out of a computer and some parts from the local aquarium store, and home depot.

Specs:

  • The case itself is 17x7x16

  • 3 compact fluorescent lights on top.

  • Mylar reflectors

  • 2 computer fans (on a 15 volt supply = tornado)
  • Carbon Filter on the exhaust vent
I retrofitted it this weekend so that I could put 3 lights on top instead of 2 on top and 2 on the bottom.

Pics:

  1. The bottom bulb on the original design
  2. The top light and fan
  3. a representation of how bright it is
  4. The case
  5. The Back
  6. The other bottom light (original design)
  7. using lower powered lights to show off more detail
  8. Interior View
  9. After the modifications

Ok so the plant that I'm starting with didn't make it. I guess it was heat damage from having it under a desk light. But luckily I have some other plants germinating!

Ok so I have a little problem. I started the LST on the bigger of the two plants, and it is growing so perfectly. However, the other plant is the same size it was two weeks ago and it's sorta contracting inwards. I wonder if I damaged the roots or something when I transplanted it. Or maybe it's narcosis? Or maybe it root rot. I'll post pics up later this weekend.:?:

:cuss:one of the people I've been following got busted the other day for posting pics up on riu this week. So I'm actually contemplating on the safety of this site.:cuss::?:
