Oh and I believe although I've adressed all of your "concerns"(hate), you still fail to compare my less then $10/month power use to your.....I'll wait.
"Like 20oz"...Wait,wait,wait....you pulled 20oz with 800W?.....So your "gram/watt" setup failed you by half a pound. Please feel free to argue...
Zem - Already had the totes, but good point. So $6 per - $12. I thought that $1 per can of cheapo spray paint was negligible, but if you must persist with negligible costs, let's compare your power usage costs to ours. Also CFL's heat....with a passive intake and an active exhaust I'm at 80*...
PS - Paint sticks fine to Sterelite and Rubbermaid containers. Didn't even scuff the plastic on the one I painted. 2 coats of black and 2 coats of flat white, works fine. Doesn't scratch off, and it's not like I'm using a fork to rake the side of the container to test it either.
Rubbermaid...
No one seems to care for Rubbermaid grows. However I've got a veg and a flower of each. I would suggest rather than what your saying by sitting the lid on the ground and putting the bottom over it for light protection, to sit it upright, and attach a powerstrip with zipties then using cfl's for...
Hi Everybody! *Excuse my Dr. Nick Simpsons reference*
Everything is looking much fatter, although they are all still pretty white haired, nothing looking like it has much age.
If I can get some insight from you guys, how much longer would you wait to harvest? I've cut down the two smallest...
I wish I had the patience to LST/top/fim and veg for a proper time, or the height to do so and get the rediculous yields I've seen. But looking good man, nothing browing, so keep up whatever it is your doing. Green=good =).
Ginger - No. Foil tape and emergency blanket in a closet kept my temps well above 85 which I wasn't going to deal with. So I scrapped that design, went with 2 layers of flat black, 2 layers of flat white, and a 4mil pandapoly door on one side of the rubbermaid for access. It works well and...
I have no idea what I can really expect WKBC. At the low end I'm guessing 7-10. Absolute maximum 20g's. Either way I'll be happy with any return I get. I've got $35 total into the setup so anything more than 2g's is net profit to me. I've still got over 60 seeds for the next round too, so...
Cacamal - Thanks! Appreciate the feedback. So far, so good.
CNine - The only thing I've used is MG African Violet Food(7-7-7) and Molasses for every watering. I've only used plain water one time. BTW: Soil is just Seed Starter mix, working great for me and no added nutes to it. I tried...
What's up RIU!
Have been at this grow for a little over a month now. Using a single rubbermaid tote on my second design. First setup I had used foil tape and mylar(emergency blanket) with smaller passive intakes and had entirely too many heat issues, so I scrapped that design and went with...
