hahah okay MG.. we've seen your grow video.... the beasty bush isnt under CFL's. JOKER..
im supposed to toss the hps's out in the garbage and switch to a few 45w cfls...taking big clones is so nice. they perk up so nicely when they root... 400CFM exhaust.. dayummm. i bought an inline fan somtin like 200CFM for 100 bux. ican only imagine waht 400 cost ya.... but yea, i was probably gonna build a lil room around the butt end of the A/C and then run ducting from the top of that out a window... idk. i was also of thinking of just getting C02 so the temps could be okay where they are now(80-85 lights on).
ya as far as the clones under 2000w Mh at my buddies/caregivers shop..ya their huge nothing like the 1st clones he gave me...he says he normally charges 100 for something that big and bushy, but were going to work something out..i wish i could have snapped pics of his op..but theres no way that would happen..
ya u think my build a box around the a/c and flex duct it is a viable idea..its really urking me i havent figured out how to supply enough fresh air yet...fuck

hehe. yea the one guy that im in business with sorta. just told me his boss wants 12 clones, and he offerd 240 for um. im not gonna argue lol... i woulda done it for 50.
isnt it nice to know some other local growers.. exchagne clones, seeds, equipment. etc...
simpson sampson my boy..well the new fan is in..cooled the room down w./ ac on 2 80-82 degrees..im wondering if its drawn the hot air from the a.c from the rest of the garage in2 the grow u know...so im going to see where the temps go and keep playn with it.. fan is super quiet for movn that much air..ya i dont know bout an intake yet..suppose i could use old load fan..im going to build that box around the a/c and vent it to the attic...that may be all i need to do, because its a sealed room, but got leaks im sure.. so the exhaust should draw intake in passivly, but with a/c runnin, its drawn hot air in probably, sound right?Tile I have that same loud fan man it works great though like straight sucks bugs from inches away thru it and you here a tink tink at the end
Tha fan itself will quiet up great by wrapping old sweaters around it unless you come up with some super carpenter skills idea. Good job bro.
Sorry to bring this up here tile but does anyone else notice the new ads running around here? Seriously and IQ test for a smoker and then the click thru site looking like that is very fishy. Then again im a wierdo like that.
yea.. i think its a good idea.. i dont see why it wouldnt work... as far as supplying fresh air unless you get another intake fan your stuck... can you use your other fan to bring air in from outside? you just have to put a little screen over the intake to keep out bugs and shit... tryin to think of something for ya..
i am getting a 12" duct exhaust fan new for 410.00... its expensive... but its also 1125 cfm... but the 6' - 409 cfm sunleaves inline exhaust fan is only $182.00... not bad i dont think..
[/quote]no justin like this guy is gonna give me clones out of his veg room that are already been rooted in foxfarm soil ..in thier final contaniers..after solid month of veg out of the ezroot cloner sys. already been supercropped, ready for flower...1-2 ft giants... he charges 35 for standard clones, right out the aero setup, with root bumps and barely shit...but these obviously are more....but were buddies so we can work it out

i use CFL'S they are the shit, OVER THE COMPUTER. LOL
Thanks i hope my trials and errors , can help others..i think your right about drawing the heat from the a/c back into the garden... basically what your saying is the air that is being passively drawn into the garden is the a/c exhaust right?? if so then you will definatly get a 5 to 10 degree drop once you exhaust the a/c out... and the idea you have with building the box around and exhausting it to the attic will work... i actually tapped a garbage bag around the back of mine, cut a whole in it, stuck duct in the hole, tapped around the hole to seal it up, ran the exhaust to the duct, and vented that way... essentially the same thing you are doing just with a thick trash bag instead of a box.. it worked well btw... you can easily use that 180cfm (is that right?) fan to do that... then as you said your exhaust will draw fresh, much cooler air in passively and all the heat (a/c and lights) will be vented.... should supply you with a steady 70 to 75 degree temp... might even be able to go to an on again off again schedule with the a/c... but im glad its at least down to the lower 80's as it is... good idea about the basement thing for fresh air too... you could get a small fan to suck air out or my guess is your new exhaust fan can pull enough passively to be ok..
looks really good.. really good
and those colas are looking quite lovely..
nice ya, i got the 6'', it was a new return at the store . . they sold it for 90..to me..so rock on...it really moves some air..and hanging them, u gotta put a stud up as some blocking ..ie wire tie also. nope ive only got like 5 grows down...and its been 2years..but ive always stuck 2 12 12..usually i have multiple timers, and i get 2 lazy to change them even if i was so inclined..let me know how it works..Lookin good bro, you got a lot of good ideas installed in your room.
Simpson I love that bag over the back method I need to give that a try... Too lazy to build a box lol.
o wow. i have the same inline fan... it is really nice. i couldnt figure out how to mount it right with the two peices of sheet metal it came with... i think i paid 122. but its 4 inch, im pretty sure..
have you ever tried increasing dark time during flowering. like 10 on 14 off. i heard that its supposed to speed up the last final weeks. im trying it now. just to see. trying to hurry things up since the mites showed up...
Thanks RJ, i am pretty handy, jsut hopn i dont burn down the house!!ayyy def. will man... did you just put that casing around the AC.. fits like a glove haha...
You should be a growroom tradesman i would pay you to build me one haha. Good work.
yea its aggrivating to whanna re-vamp your shit but you already have babies going in there...im taking your ACglove idea too.. somewhat i was thinking..Pe@Ce..
