Mini Aeroponic Garden

cheers gypsy. the tubs i've been looking at are smaller than yours but would only house two plants. as for the cool tube, with the ducting attached, what is the overall length? would i be right in assuming an extra 125mm at each end?

 

[GypsyBush]

if you run 6" duct... it goes straight to the tube with no adapters...

but yeah about 12cm per adapter is about right...

 

[AGSteve]

cheers mate. that would be to big for my tent. it's only 60x60 cm square. i have seen another hood on the market that pulls air thru the top, like the one i made, which would suit me better.

i do like the one you got tho, you can hook them together inline off one fan.

 

[GypsyBush]

you could do it!!!

60cm is 23.6" .... the tube is only 19"... you have 4.6" to spare...

How high is your cab? would you need to adjust the height? I doubt it right...?

I would deff. try my hardest to go with a tube...

It is so efficient, Yesterday I closed up the tent and used the exhaust from the cool tube as intake for the tent...

Guess what? the high for the night was 76.8...!!!

They work well ... air just blows through...

worms in your brain.. sorry...

 

[AGSteve]

don't worry gypsy, i'm immune to your worms now hehe. however i reckon with that tube i would need an extra 10" in length to allow for the ducting at each end which would exceed the the width of my tent.

gypsy ... legit grow... love the tent... good stuff ... as for HTG ... i was surprised ... then they totally hooked u up.. amazing...

Why would you need an extra 10"?

Just run it straight through... poke some holes in your tent if needed... I can't imagine you will need to adjust height... just make it fixed... par with the holes...

or do you mean you do not have room outside of your tent?

gypsy ... legit grow... love the tent... good stuff ... as for HTG ... i was surprised ... then they totally hooked u up.. amazing...

Thanks, I appreciate it...

HTG is a LEGIT company that will stand behind their products...

I will buy from them EVERY TIME I need something... even if they want a few more bucks... I am HTG for life... they did me right and they will not regret it....

Cheers...

[GypsyBush]

Thanks man... yeah I live out in the boonies, you might say...

the nearest road that continues to somewhere is about 400 miles away...

as is the nearest bank... mc donald's... night club.. bar... mall... street light... police station... hospital... uh you get the picture...??

That is why my leg is so fucked now...

When I fell on the ice, and broke my leg in 7 places... and twisted my foot backwards and the sole up to the sky and the chin bone 90* fwd.... there was NO MEDICAL HELP AT ALL, not even booze or pills...

I just sat on the couch and watched my leg swell and turn colors...

the weather was bad, of course.. so I waited for 14 hours... with nothing but my thoughts to keep the pain away...

It's been almost a year now... and I am still doing physical therapy in the big city....

This grow was done in my hotel room, inside of the nightstand...lol...

what do you think about that????

 

[MisterNiceGuy]

and here is a picture of last year's great Alaskan adventure...

1800 miles in 22 days, solo, across Alaska from the wast coast, through the Alaska Range, into Anchorage and back.... 100% solo and self supported...

Have you seen the new discovery on the Iditarod dog sled race? that is the trail I took, through rainy pass...

This is the day I left the "local" (250 roadless miles from home) dealer in Bethel...

[GypsyBush]

Thanks!! they are supper warm...

the mittens are hand made... a traditional Yup'ik Eskimo design dating back thousands of years...

It is made of Beaver (back), River Otter (front of wrist and back of thumb), elk (palms of hand and thumb) and a Wolf trim to seal up against my elbow...

I call them Chewbacca hands...lol...

They were hand made ... by me... amazing what necessity does eh?!?!

2 layers of polar fleece make the liner... proven to -67F...!!!
