kool man i know exactly what your feelin right now my 6 are still mystery sex wise fingers X'd for both of us!

who are you kiddin your only doing this grow baaahahahaha till the next time...

if you want me to take pics of the tent n its fitting i can do man. funny its usually the dope that folks are interested in hahah you can purpose build boxes easy enough if youve got a saw n drill etc i like the flexibility of the tent ive just moved house and just packed my ( hopefully) girls into boxes with black bags over their heads took the tent down drove to the new gaff set tent up shoved em in and set up the light took about an hour n ahalf
hopefully! need as much bud as possible which will mean as much cash as possible. i get married in 16 weeks. need some quick flowering strains that weigh a ton.

yeah. if u got any pics of the ceiling and supply/extract apertures then that'd be great. need to see if i can hang my light. also gonna work out how many l/s is required to size a fan - my day job comes in useful for somethings! i can design and size the mechanical and electrical, i just cant install the things!

oh, i dont have any tools, nor any money to buy them, nor the time/skill/patiants lol

I got 1 I just need to turn my fan 90° to the back of the tent, to give me more room for lamp.
3 x beams for hanging.

l/s is litres per second. fans will tell u how many cubic meters / litres per second etc they will handle.

i think i might do to save doing calcs etc just buy a box, see what the temps are like first.


welsh, those 3 bars, are the standard and on all boxes? i need somewhere to hang a shade similar to urs. ive been using easy rollers which are really good so id like to keep using them.

is that a carbon filter and fan at the end going into the exhaust aperture? wheres the rest of ur ductwork? lol

i can see if i have to fit all these things it could turn out v.bad

Yes all the tents Iv seen have the 3 adjustable bars, so you put them where you want them.
There is a kit you can buy as an extra that gives you more bars to play with.
The easy rollers will work well.
No ducting so no loss off extraction.
Your extraction rate will depend on size of fan you use, normally the higher the wattage the more air it moves, with out it you can have heat and hummidity problems.
Its easy to set up. Can you tie a knot in some string?

My fan has always been on when light is on so I dont know how hot it would get, over 90°ƒ I would assume, but I used to shut it off with the light untill I noticed my hummidity was up to 70 odd % when it was'nt running, not good for flowering might get mold in the bud which aint good so I fan like I should.:weed:

sadly i pulled a boy out yesterday i did confirm one definite girl but this morning i think i see the beginnings of balls on another i think its the NL x Shiva so im pretty much expecting the 3rd one to be a bloke too :cuss:

plus side the chiesel is looking close to motherhood! but as ive never really taken clones. what do you guys reckon ? can i take the side shoots off and get crackin with the perpetual harvest again?



this last pic is from a friends grow he got fem lowryders and 5 free seeds which im guessing here but must be part of the breeding program cos they are freaks hes got a 4ft tall sativa dom girl thats only just started showing bud at 4 weeks 12/12. anyway its grown 18" from where it was topped and hes started bending and tying. this is the bit he chopped off which has been in a glass of water for a few weeks

Go for it she's only been in 6 days, it may slow her down a bit but wont hurt over all bud production.
Just put the clones under soft light 24 hr.
Have you some rooting hormone?
I use peat plugs for clones the ones that are flat untill you soak them.

alright WW ! good weekend fella?! shes not been in 12/12 6 daas shes been in 18/6 for about 5/6 weeks now! shes never going to be allowed to flower unless the clones give seeds, then ill switch strain for mother.

my envirolite should be ok for putting the clones under shouldnt it? ive got some clonex and i bought root riot things, not sure what their made of?!?!
im gonna soak them tonight and set about her with a scalpel!! hope i manage better than the last lot. ive plugged the holes in the bottom of the propagator so fingers X'd

whats the general veg time for a clone ? 3-4 weeks same as seeds?

my envirolite. Just the job.
I find it takes a good week or 2 before they root, after that stick them in a pot veg till you ready mate.
