I always find myself calibrating my ph. pen or should I say checking it in a calibrating solution. this is because I normally have to ph. up a lot more than normal. I also have to let the nutrient / water mix set for...

    fan leaves dying shoulld i cut them?

    I would cut anything that looked real real bad, if your 2 weeks away I would think you'll be planing to flush. If any food is taken from the fan leafs it might be better to take from healthy fan leafs, also I hate seeing any thing dead around my plants if I plan to harvest soon, I always...

    If temps and humidity is good Do You Really Need a Fan on?

    Sorry Diaz, to explane a little better.. I have a carbon filter, air cooled hood and a 6 in inlinefan that is on 24/7, I was wondering if the fan blowing directly on the plants is really necessary if all is good with the environment in the tent.

    How do i cool/vent a 2x4x5 tent cheaply???

    yea that will do it, you shouldn’t have any issues with a 400, they don’t make things too hot with good air flow. I have a dimmable and I have run it with a fan blowing in and another time with the flaps open and have had no issues with heat stress on either setup.

    How do i cool/vent a 2x4x5 tent cheaply???

    I leave the flaps open at the bottom of my tent, if you have light issues you will need to close the flaps and push air in with another fan hooked to a long piece of ducting. If its long it shouldn’t be a big issue as far as light leaks goes. forget about the reflector its not going to...

    Is this a good closet room?

    You might try to put a lamp shade or something to reflect the light down more.

    How do i cool/vent a 2x4x5 tent cheaply???

    What would your monkey do? Just hook up the filter to the fan with the ducting. Then run the ducting out the window or something like that you might wont to hang the filter above the light because heat rises. Also try to get ducting that is not see through, this will keep light out or in.

    How do i cool/vent a 2x4x5 tent cheaply???

    Your right on point Wolf Zen, you ‘ll have smell issues defiantly. If you going to get into carbon filters you will need a inline fan. I’m assuming you thinking of getting 2 duct boosters and no filter to cool your tent?

    How do i cool/vent a 2x4x5 tent cheaply???

    one blowing in and one out, it might be helpful getting a speed controller for the one blowing in to get a little back pressure.

    well when i finally start my first grow...

    I had a 5 pack of fem seeds and have 3 left a year and a half later. I cloned and ended up flowering the mother and 4 of the best clones. I plan to keep a seed or 2 for back up and I have a mother from the second seed I sprouted. For me I liked the learning experience from making clones.

    Mylar.

    I got mine like I said on clearance for 1$ I know what ya mean with the putting things together and taking them down if your in the construction part of the build I would recommend kills sealer and some white paint. Paint will seal in any dirt or spores and reflect well.

    I’m sure the blankets are not that expensive, you might wont to get a few to play with, sometimes I see emergency blankets in the clearance piles. I always have a few on hand for projects.

    if it’s a small grow box you might get away with using a emergency blanket, if I'm not mistaken its made from Mylar.
