Awesome! I like your plan. I didn't actually use glue on mine, the pieces fit tight as hell, and I wanted to be able to disassemble for cleaning if need be. But I bet that hose stuff is even better, without seams. Don't forget to share pics as you get 'er done!

G'day, Laceygirl again...

Just an update on the big tent..

They are responding well to LSTing... They have really spread them selves out now which was the plan...I have huge 20 litre pots so they've had to stretch a bit... Not going to touch them today... Will look again tomorrow, but not much else has changed...

I love going into my shed now, it has taken me a long time to get to this point, (big shout out to the hubby for the build) but I am becoming very power concious... My usage and my bill are my biggest concerns... My shed is using a fair bit at the moment, so I am faithfully paying $30.00 a week off my bill...

Is anyone using the same sort of power usage as I am?

I am running 2x 1000 watters with ballasts
1 Air Conditioner (Portable unit thingy)
1 x 400 watt Metal Hallide with ballasts
1x 12000 air pump with 4 outlets
1 x 1050 litre an hour water pump
3 x Oscillating Fans
1 x 200 mm exhaust fan
1 x 100 mm exhaust fan
1 x 110watt flouro
3 timers
1 x ICubic Speaker for my iPod..

Hey Lacey, I am running a similar amount of power. My grow is in the sig but I will do a quick rundown.

2x1000w HPS
1X400w MH
2X 20" box fans
1X Portable AC(950w max)
1 X284w of flouro
water pumps, air pumps, etc.

all HID lights are currently running on 12/12. My bill is about $6 a day @ 10 cents a KWH. Keep in mind that includes the rest of my house as well.
Small price to pay for the end product....... Sub'd

G'day all Laceygirl again... Still playing the customs waiting game... Man this sux... But the good thing, I just contacted my seed guys and they reckon wait another week, if not they will resend...

I will have them sent to another address and contact name that's for sure... Why are customs so concerned with Mauwie growers??? It really pisses me off... What about the bulk loads of cocaine that are sitting amongst the crates at ship yards that make it thru...??? We can't produce coke here, so its gotta be getting thru...

Police the real criminals..

That sucks, hope they get through to you.

 

[wonderblunder]

It will all work out. The seed ordering deal always makes me a little nervous.....

G'day all Laceygirl again... Been busy yesterday, I decided to make some changes to the mother tent, temporary as they may be...

I decided to put more light into the Mother tent... I really had to, I need the big tent to only have the SLH in there as they are being trained and getting larger.. So something had to give..

Here is the mother tent newly reconfigured to suit the different sizes of the plants.

The 400 watt is hanging closer to the smaller SLH mother and Blue Cheese (Pamela).. This should help even things out a little.. Still thinking on a watering system.. Almost have it nutted out...

The bonus is, the metal halide is low enough to help the larger plants undergrowth.. Its hitting them perfectly... Super bonus...


The last pic is of the Big Arse Tent.. They are really coming along nicely now.. Not sure how much longer till I turn down... Will have to wait and see... They are not big enough yet...

More when there is more...

Stay tuned...

G'day all Laceygirl again, and I'm very impressed with myself...

I've just built myself a screen at the cost of zero dollars... Ya gotta love that...

I had a old table lying around, so I got my husband to remove the top, so I was left with just a frame, and rather than spend money on screen from the hydro store, I just used cooking twine... Its softer than the plastic screen and its super strong...

And the best part, it fits like a glove... I can also add attachments around the sides when I need to expand.... Stuff I can remove so I can get it in and out easier....

It only took me about an hour to knock up, so yeah, stoked again... Will post more pics when I finish the attachments...

Thats pretty cool. I plan on doing Scrog at some point. I will be watching this thread closely.

Hey Lacy, I have seen you around in a few of my friends journals, so I finally clicked on your link. I am very glad I did. Definatly lookin good. Congrats on the tub, you will love the aero cloner. Very nice work on the screen. Isn't it nice when something fits perfectly, it happens so rarely.

heya LG looking wkd in thoes tents. when i did ma grow i decided whith the 2 250watts so that i was able to move one of the lights up and down to suit ma lil blueberry and Phycoflash. and had the other one rasised rite to the roof of ma tent to accommodade for the lanky mofo of the Alaskin Ice.

i think having to lights is a gud idea if ya aint got all the same strain as u dunno how tall they will grow.

thats ma 2 pence im smashed and ive only had one joint that AI is a gud smoke even tho she dont look like it lol

Hi Princess, yeah ya definately have gotta have two lights with such different heights aye? It seems to work well.... I may actually update to 2x 250watt Metal Hallides for the mother tent, or I might just get another 400, it would be cheaper to buy another 400 but they do put out the heat...

G'day all Laceygirl, the builder, Can She Fix It? Laceygirl the builder, Yes She Can....lol...

I've been building heaps of stuff today... My aerocloner is one more step closer to being finished.. I did the hard yards today and cut big holes in it... I've only cut eight holes cause I have downsized my plant numbers, but if I do decide to expand, I can always add more...

I've also included a picture of the Blue Cheese mother (Pamela)... She's really taken off... I get to transplant her into a bigger pot in the next day or so... I am just waiting for some trays to arrive....

I've been back to Discount Hydroponics and bought all the necessary requirements to make the mister for inside the unit... Can't get over how much money I saved and how cheap they are with postage, by courier no less...!!!! I do have to go to Bunnings and get the spray misters from the garden section... So cheap....
Will post pics of the mister when its done as I reckon it will be heaps easier than PVC piping....

Back with more...
