Its all about patience dude something I learned along the grow. Thats why I try and answer as many questions as I can for other noobs Flo, Weedler. DirtFree,BB57 ( who introduced us all to the coolers) these guys answered my questions from start to finish from beginning the construction of my grow room all the way through flower. We all are trying to do the same thing at the end of the day.

Second tent arrived and was installed. So I have a 400 W Switchable in one tent and a 250W in the other, both have the exact same setup just the lights are different watts.

So each lady has her own tent

And now for some shots of the ladies


Day 33 AK48


Another week left for this lady before she is onto flush

Day 9 AK48


The day 9 AK48 is in the 250W tent.

The AK lookin a lil droopy man..

Naw just a top shot... Getting ready to post an update. She will need some interior thinning out tomorrow or the next day.

First report on both ladies, they now have their own tents, I say ladies because the smaller AK48 is a true female

Just got finished with a reservoir change for both the ladies. I took a bunch of photos trichs are developing nicely still clear

900 PPM
5.6 PH
Water Temp 68F
Tent Temps 85F (lights on) 76F (lights off)

This is my final reservoir change for the Day 34 AK48, she will run up to Day 41, then be switched to R/O water until harvest!

AK48 day 34 has her own tent




AK 48 Day 10, she will need some thinning out tomorrow or the next day


Female flowers from the 10 day old AK48



Here are the two tents and exhaust setup

Some lights out shots of the two ladies, I removed some of the fan leaves that were blocking lower sites leaving plenty just thinning out letting the light hit the canopy nicely. Checked the trichs on the older AK48 and they are coming along nicely still clear.

I was adding some frozen water bottles earlier and I need to be very careful with the old lady, she is getting very top heavy and I do not want to snap a branch this close to harvest. Great care will be taken over the next few weeks.

weedler, you have the same tent that i do and i am trying to figure out how to fit my fan/filter/duct work/cool tube in the tight space. can you post up additional photos of yours? i see the two on the first page, can you take some with it hooked up to the lighting and filter? pretty please with og kush on top?

Yeah I have to take them in the morning lights are off right now

Monkster, ask & you shall receive

I do not have an air cooled hood. Just a ~ 190 CFM 4" Fan extracting air out of the grow tent through a carbon filter. 400W light in one tent the 250W in the other.

Here's the new tent I just got through setting up, exact same as the other tent with the 4.5" axial fan pushing air into the tent during lights on it goes off with the lights, fans inside & air bubbles are on 24/7.


Here's the smaller AK48 in her tent she measured 19" today


This is the exhaust for the larger lady, same setup you can see the light is higher for the larger lady.


She is 33-35" buds are just exploding in thickness and density!

Thanks a pound!! I've been trying to design it in my head while waiting for my fan and filter to arrive and being able to see yours, i know exactly what to do. your ladies are sooooo sexy.

did your tent come with that bar on top or did you add it?

Yeah it came with the two top support bars, the tent I received before hand has some weaker top supports the one I have pictured in the new tent is much better

it's the same tent that came with better top support bars or did you modify it?

same tent, same supplier better supports... I bought mine on Ebay the first one on Amazon the price on Ebay is now cheaper I found a 4'x4'x6' tent on Amazon for $100 shipped. Both supports work well I like the new version better just heavier duty, I still use bungee cords to keep supports in proper area because I put a lot of stress on the support not downward with weight but backwards and forwards with the fan pulling on the rear frame to the support so I had to counteract that with the bungee cords. $3 to make sure the supports never move works great for me, the supports never really move but I just made sure they weren't going anywhere in case I bumped it moving the lights etc reduce vibration which there is none really but maybe because I took all the extra steps?

+ fuckin REP Weedler !
Those girls are gorgeous bro !
Nice tent set up too !

Thanks Flo! I can't wait to harvest!! 3 weeks MAX & counting lol
