Those are not that good. I have no hoods, just two bare bulbs as you can see from this pic from August 12 .

IQI9jRs.jpgBasically what I have read and I tell people is you want more intake than exhaust. intake and exhaust are both important and it is a huge misconception that a high powered exhaust fan and a "passive intake" will cool the tent. The best way is to pull air from an adjacent room that is cool into the grow tent. That exhaust can go anywhere as long as it is not going right back in the intake. I exhaust into the room my tent is in but since the intake is cool air from the kitchen I'm good. I've tried sucking cool air from outside the tent and exhausting that elsewhere but that does not work. Take my word on this as you will feel foolish setting it all up and then having super high temps.

I don't have the option to pull air in. The space I'm using is a living room laundry closet that just so happens to have a dryer vent. I'm ok with it for since I live in an apartment. I might be able to pick up an a/c unit and shove it in there....

Ah nice! Laundry closets are the way to go in an apartment! just close the door and turn the light off and its hidden. I vented through my drier vent in my apartment grow as well. An A/c wont work as it will be too big or too hard to exhaust imo. Just hookup a $22 intake fan and some 4 inch ducting and move it out of the way when you need to.

Day 56 and looking tasty. BM is dense and hard with swelling of calyxs, pistils turning amber slowly. TD is a bit fluffy but the foxtailing growth is cool.... 20150903_061937.jpg20150903_062009.jpg

Got some leaves clawing downwards on the TD. Not all, so I dont think its a deficiency, i think its an indicator that she may soon be done. The BM is still perky though but only gets one more solid nute feed before 10 day flush. Im really looking forward to its flavor once cured. The TD will be a little more potent i believe. Tell me what you think. If you think i could do something better or i am doing it wrong, please give me input!

10 day flush? Are you flushing or just cutting notes out. The last few day are where autos shine. I wouldn't chop until they look like the plant is bush weed

Righto. Might go a while longer. They have been packing on weight and resin like crazy lately. I will take any advice on when to stop giving nutes and and just feed water....
