Starting a grow journal, in the right place this time. I'll be discontinuing my old thread, as it was in the wrong place, and I wanted to do a new journal that met the requirements of the competition. So I'm here to show you the saddest clones that I've ever picked up. They are locked up/deficient, purple, and all around dying. Coupled with the fact that they have both spider mites and thripes, make a bad situation worse.:spew::cuss:

I have 4 Sour Diesel that I've already transplanted into a small bubbler system, completely away from my current grow. These were picked out as the 4 that needed the most help.

The strains that I'm currently working with are ak47, 6 currently in bud, 2 new clones, lavander diesel 1 new clone, sour diesel 5 new clones, perma frost 2 new clones, and 1 shark shock clone. :mrgreen:

I bought the fox farm don't bug me, as well as 2 bug bombs, and this black label shit at my grow store, I've already given the new clones a healthy bath of both sprays, and one bomb,(over the span of 2 days) and don't see any little critters moving. I'm going to give them a few days of recovery, then I'm going to repeat the process again.

Hmmm. What else do we need to know... Botanicare PBP, Grow and bloom. Roots organic Hp2 and organism, Cal-mag, sm-90, ph'ed tap water. Every 3 days foliar feed with either Roots organic trinity or liquid Karma.
500ppm veg, 1500ppm bloom, ph 5.8 +-.1

clearex bath at res change

Bluelab truncheon ppm meter, oakton easy ph pen.

Res is stackable file cabinets holders found at any office supply store. They hold around 8 gal each, and I put 2 plants in each bucket. Gotta love the black.

Duel outlet air pumps, 6in round airstones, 6in netpots, and 6 plants. Shit that's 666... Better be careful for the next lil bit...

Mills pride wardrobe 72x48x20 (100$ at home DePot)
600w HPS

1, 6in intake fat rated at 160cfm
1, 6in HO can fan rated at 440cfm for extraction
1, 4in table fan, aiding in circulation around the plants.

Air is circulated through a carbon scrubber before leaving the cab.

Here's some pics of the sad SD that I transplanted. The others are in a dark period, so pics will have to come later. photo 4 is of the current grow. Also some randoms of the cab and tools.
:peace:,<3, and :joint: 4 all

Doesn't seem like a whole lot of other people are too interested in this thread. But I am!

I'm working on building my own mills pride cab, but I'm confused a little about the ventilation. I'm going to use a 400w, and I have one of these: Soler & Palau Commercial Centrifugal, Axial, Propeller, Exhaust and Supply Fans - Soler and Palau - HVACQuick.com the 125 model, 197/149 cfm rated fan.

If I read corectly, you are only using a 160 cfm fan to ventilate an entire cab with a 600w and a carbon scrubber, correct? does it work well?

think I could get away with ventilating a 400w, in a similar space (maybe the next one down, the 30"), and a home made carbon scrubber, with 149 cfm?

Oh yeah, I also have a DIY cool tube.
