Ha, that's clever.. thanks for the pics. I was thinking of the other little fans they sell and couldn't picture it. My box is a bit more shallow but otherwise the same. Between this thread and the design forum I have a couple ideas now. I might actually be able to make my franken-box decent...
68-72. I can add pics later today maybe.
I'm using 42w, I think I'll give a bunch of 23w ones a go next time. At least that way I can increment everything and control heat more easily, if necessary. I'm definitely curious to know more about rigging a cheap fan into something inline. Have...
Right. It was a lesser-of-two-evils compromise. pc fans don't pull air real well so I opted to push instead to at least get some air flow through the filter. I remember I tried it that way when I was setting it up and it was 100 deg after about 45 mins.
Oh crap sorry, I wasn't clear. I am planning the changes for my next grow.
Hmm, so if you're able to run that many in such a comparable space, ventilation is definitely where my problem is. How do you have your exhaust set up?
@bass1014 - i forgot all about the heat from ballasts when...
I am about a week away from my first harvest (hooray) and it's been clear for some time now my enclosure runs too hot so I need to make some changes (EDIT: ...for my next grow).
Setup:
It's basically a 1'x1'x2.5' cab with 110CFM 120mm pc fan pushing into my carbon filter. I do get a decent...
Hi again, here's update to my post from 16 days ago. Was told about 20 days.
Here's some new pics, Day 76 of 12/12, OG13. She's obviously been through hell, particularly heat, it should be quite obvious this is my first. :neutral: Any opinions of time left? Thanks
Thanks again for the help. Yeah it's just 1 plant. I made a small set up (1'x1'x2', 84W CFL) so I could make mistakes and learn. I didn't want to shove all in with an expensive setup right away.
Yeah, first grow, she's been through a lot. Primarily heat stress.
Ok so I guess I'll sit tight for at least two more weeks before I start thinking about harvest again. I saw amber trichs and got excited.
Thank you both for taking a look, I'm glad I asked first.
Hi. Day 60 of flowering my first grow (OG13). Trichs are about 10% amber and then the rest are slightly more clear than cloudy still, maybe 50/40. Does 10 more days seem about right or am I looking at a few weeks still?
Also, is there any value in cutting the light down from 12hrs to...
Yeah, flipped mine on 12/27 and it looks more or less the same as yours. Another week and a half or so is when things should really start exploding. :weed:
As I said I'm only using 2x 42w CFLs. Not going to shove in expensive lights til I figure out what I'm doing. ;-) And the space I have is only 2'x1'x1' for now. It's gonna be small and also as I said, it was stunted completely for about a week after I transplanted it. It's growing quickly...
Strain: G13 Labs - OG13
Medium: FFOF soil
Light: 2x 42W CFLs
Watering: ~every 3 days
Temps: 77-82F
First grow. I'm about 4 weeks into veg from seed. I transplanted into this 1gal pot about a ten days ago (too soon, as I immediately learned) and the 2nd node and a tiny bit of the first node...
