hey wormdrive, is your Casey a clone? I wonder if it's the 8 week or 12 week version. I tend to see no extra benefit in taking the Casey cut I have past 8 weeks. I know Jig done a 12 week Casey though.

Lots of stellar looking grows people, nice Sunday pr0n display. Got the bloody flu so feeling like crap at the moment....

Hope you all have a good one,

peace, DST

I run 1600w's in a 1.2 squared cupboard and can manage the temps perfectly in winter. Summer it's a bit harder but you can get through. You have quite a few cfl's and a no air cooled 220 so I think if you air cooled the 600 you will be perfect.

I need some help 600w growers :)

I'm in a 2x3x6 closet with a 450 or 550 cfm exhaust fan, "set at 450" with a 650 cfm carbon filter. I'm running a 220w hps non air cooled and 200w of mixed cfl's. My temps are steady @ 80 right at the top of the canopy 84 "hottest". I'm pretty confident I can keep these same conditions with a 400 "air cooled" but I'm hesitant with the 600... I've read that 100watts per square foot is overkill but then I read guys like "JIG" i think his name was that runs a 1k vert in a small closet! I'm all about increasing my yield and hammering the buds with lumens but I finally got my temps dialed in and I'm paranoid this will give me problems lol, I figure worst case I could run it at 50 or 75% during the summer.. So thoughts or opinions would really help, thanks!

Sounds to me like it might work but it will be close. Would be nice to pack a 600 in there! I have a friend that gets great results from that space with a 400 but he could benefit nicely from the deeper penetration of the 600. A lot of the heat results can depend on your climate haha. I can do a lot more in the winter than the summer where I'm at.
Yea the 400 sounds ideal but what fun is that lol.

That's the problem with meeting and greeting large numbers of people (and shared bong hits)...all it takes is one. Hope you get to feeling better soon...take plenty of fluids and meds.

:peace:

Hope that flu doesnt get ya down much man. i refused the flu shot this year and im hopin i wont get the bug.

i have a copy/paste from my journal

I cant stand nor being able to see color. i was going to photoshop em and turn anything green blue, but hell i aint feel like it. sucks because i cant even see in my new cam take good pics or not yet. oh well. Should i let her roast a little longer or chop. with starins that have fat ass calyxes and foxtail alot i can never tell by looking. and like before i have no microscop anymore. i guess ill order one today along with my vga. without the color green the screen cant really focus on the pics. its weird. Im assuming she started flowering on 10-20 because in my planner i wrote on the calenser it started flowering on 11-20. but im unsure. i may have just write it there. gotto go look at some older pics.

Hey Smelly. I do indeed run a 1000w in a 2x3x9 closet and the buds love it. It's all about air movement and it helps to live in a cool place. I think a 600 would work out for you. What kind of temps are you pulling from? My 'fresh air' comes from my bedroom which is at the hottest in the summer probably about 75 degrees. During the winter something like 60. I have a 465 cfm fan pulling over the 1000w and I can hold my hand on the glass of the diy cooltube.

Good luck with whatever you choose, and keep us posted.

This goes to the point about me watching trichs instead of just looking at the plant. When I grew the CJ out I was trying to go for a lot of amber trichs. At 9 weeks I think she had about 15% amber... same thing at 10, 11, and 12. The trichs just never turned over. So I probably just wasted 2-3 weeks waiting for them to turn. I think 9, maybe 10 weeks at the most would have been good.

Unfortunately PM is a disease and cannot be killed, once it is in a plant it is there. All you can do is use something to keep it at bay and keep your circulation A1. I use silinal by ecostyle on anything that shows signs of PM. It's a Belgian product.

Ok so here a few few pics (again Iphone quality, need to grab a camera and get some pics when lights out)
cool tube is awesome, temps down from high 80s with tent half open to 76 on the dot. 70 at the base of the tent do might have to turn the fan down a touch.
and NO SMELL. about time.

anyway here is one of my tents now, still a bit bodged with tape etc but its good enough and a huge improvement from before.

4 pineapple express (clones from an insane plant i found in a batch of seeds last year), 29 days flower (4 weeks veg) its plenty of space for just 4 I think ill stick with this amount in a 4 by 4 tent from now on.


This is how i fit my 4 inch ducting from the filter to the 6 inch of the cooltube. padded the space with an old pillow case and taped it up. works well. didnt know how else to do it in a few inches of space.

if i understand correct bubba kush and og kush has a bad rep for mildew but i love those strains so want to keep it from coming out

o and another note do u guys know how many seeds come in the bb packs i really want the dog kush and enginers dream and maybe some deep blue mmmmmmmmm.......

All packs from BB at 10 seeds. It should confirm that when you order.

Kushes are fairly prone to PM because they like low RH environments....difficult when living under the sea, lol. But do-able.

Indecline: Could you not just connect the filter directly onto the cool tube to avoid the extra ducting and tape,etc?

I tried a few ways and this just worked best.

Im such an idiot, spent hundreds in the hydro store and didnt even think to ask them for a reducer. URGH. That would be a lot simpler.
Ill grab one from the net.

I didnt mind making it with tape though, give me an excuse to chill out in the grow room rather than write essays for uni. Which reminds me its due tomorrow. Now, to blaze or not to blaze, that is the question. Probably shouldnt or ill just end up reading the question 20 times before I understand it..... But I know I will.

Oooo shit got to go, crash outside my house and people shouting for an ambulance...
