wow. now i see you for what you really are.....a wanna be..

no wonder you dont think 4 oz can come off a plant . your sad ass plant brought what? half a z? pick up a book dick head. learn to grow.....everyones first IS not gonna be up to par, but this aint your first. bitch boy....hahahahahahaha
you wish you were me...
I beg to differ. I finished my first grow a couple of months ago and pulled 10oz from 5 plants under a 400w light. By no means was it perfect, but it still kicked out some truely amazing white widow. And have you ever seen Jackmayoffers first grow, 12lbs. This statement sould be most peoples first grows dont go very well.

I am not using that fan but if I could go back I would have bought that one instead of my 306 CFM active air inline fan
I am not sure how loud it is as it doesn't state the db's but it is going to be pretty loud. There are some great threads here on sound proofing your inline fans, let me find a link for you

Here's two good ones:

Hope that helps

looking at the pics on the first page of this thread, your plants do not look like they started off very healthy at all.... The leaves were all kinds of colors, never a dark luscious green that denotes health... I'll be interested to see how the rest of this grow goes and if your plants get more healthy as time progresses. guess I'll continue reading the thread now. :-)

Here is my royal kush that is 2 weeks 2 days since sprout. She is vegging under a 70 watt HPS. The plants looked crummy in the beginning because I was growing in soil and that shit was too hard. Hydro is much easier. Here is the RK at 16 days since sprout in a DWC container













Thanks for your observations, everything is under control. Thanks for looking though, if you need any help ever let me know

Are these plants looking healthy and the dark green that you are looking for?

I new to this site and not sure where to post this but what the hell. I just transfered my plant wich was healthy up until this point. When it came out of the old pot it ripped a decent amount of roots. is this going to kill the plant?

I am all hydroponics now, no more soil
DWC for that royal kush will be flowered under that 70 watt HPS
DWC for the great white shark mother
22 site aeroponic system for flowering, the GWS mother is supplying me cuttings for that

There is no such thing as transplant shock or stress
Nothing more than a myth
Giving the roots more room to grow would not cause stress lol

Well I harvested the 3 DWC plants today. The leaves were burnt to a crisp but let me tell you they had a lot of bud underneath. I weighed the smallest cola of the three and it weighed out to 28.5 grams wet so hopefully it will dry out to around 10 grams I'm hoping. Check out the pics!
thats sum dank lookin bud man:eyesmoke:iam guessin u get around 13grams!!! i normaly end up with exactly half of what my wet weight is everytime or very close to it:bigjoint:

Yup it is a 70 watt HPS housed in a 4 sided horizontal reflector from htgsupply
Here is a link to the reflector I am using: http://htgsupply.com/viewproduct.asp?productID=48163
Well not that one, but one very similar. Without the dimples on the reflector
I am heating up some pizza right now but after I eat that I will take some pics and post 'em here for ya
I like the results for only 70 watts that's for sure

what are your dimensions? also what are your temps like?
i like your fan you hung. i did something similar in my tent.
only... in my setup it raised temps, i guess its blowing the hot air all over as opposed to going straight up?
do you find that fan helps your setup?
nothing but questions and ears.. amirite?

:peace:

I have the fan blowing air across the bulb and then a 12v cpu fan for exhaust
Since I added the fan blowing across the bulb the temps have dropped quite considerably
It is 1.4°F above the ambient temps right now, which is cold because it is 70.2 in the room the box is located in
The dimensions of the box are 20 inches wide, 17 inches deep and 40 inches tall
