what do you have for ventilation at the moment.....

well at the mo i kept the lid shut constantly but now im leaving it open throught work hours 8am-1 in the afternoon, im finding out that a old fridge freezer is shit to grow in but i was eager, im trying to convert an old chest of draws but for now freezer will have to do and tips ??? any wud help ? so u dnt think it was the MH light on the wood then ????? cheers

are you sure it was smoke and not steam...heat will kill your plants

EDIT: I know how it is to work and grow at the same time (and have others living in the same place). I didnt want to leave my door open either. Im not sure about your cituation but i would suggest leaving that fridge door open..... even if you gotta drap a cover over it... maybe it could still get some air.. and hopefully not catch on fire

You're probably over watering them... They should only be watered every 3 or 4 days...
