hell yeah snyder, thats the way we roll in the ghetto, LoL.


ok ghetto people, here it is, the ghetto, blade home made, grow box mini a/c cool box unit. i took a kitty litter jug, i cut around the top so that it fits right back over itself. the 2" elbow fits snug over the top, the intake fan draws the air in through the top pipe, over the frozen ice packs, and delivers frosty ice cold air into the grow box, waiting now to see the difference in the temps. hopefully, the ice packs stay frozen throughout the whole 18 hours of the light cycle. the starting temp was 84 and hum was 16%. the over night dark temp went down to 73 and the hum up to 37%. once im able to move my dresser over some, im gonna put the cool box between the grow box and the dresser.

the beans have popped, 1 tap root is about a 1/2" and the other 1 is just starting to pop out, but i put them both in any ways. now the fun begins, waiting to see the green, LoL. total time for germination was about 60 hours. 1 thing i did notice, the pot closer to the intake fan dries out a little quicker than the far 1, have to keep an eye on this. the next thing im gonna work on is sealing up the light leaks around the door and the intake fan. well thats all for now, time to smoke a bowl, LoL. heres some pics. ill post later if the temps come down, later

check it.






ok heres the story. i was FUCKED up when i started this grow. i started it in the ballin ass money cup that i have. the next day i wake up and realize there can be no drainage from a coffee mug lol so i transplant it into a taco bell cup. then i realize i didnt cut holes in the bottom because im retarded. so i cut holes but they're too big and the soil now doesnt hold enough water so i have to transplant them AGAIN. so these girls are only 10 days oldish and have already been transplanted twice. thats why the round leaves look yellow. they're starting to come back though. i noticed in the pics the plants look yellowish too. they're not its just the camera.

ok so the current setup is 1 23w, 1 26w, 1 28w, 1 20w (the long light). thats 97w's for those of you not willing to do simple math. i have a 150w ballast in the mail though WOOT WOOT. then im probably going to add one 40w cfl and that will be my lighting.

future plans...seal off the front of the dog house with plywood/hinges. ill stand it up too. definitely lst'ing all my ladies. im making a carbon filter or two. buying a couple little exhaust/intake fans. maybe an oscillating fan if i think the current ones not good enough. thinking about getting the 'recipe for success" nutes. this should be a good little ghetto grow if its not found lol.

oh i forgot....check out the rented lamps ^. oh ashleys furniture if only you knew....

forgot this too. they're bag seeds and are on a 24/0 light cycle. probably switch it to 20/4 in a couple weeks. once i get a timer. this wont stress them out will it? i dont want to put ANY more stress on them. they've been through too much already.

i do all my clones/mothers/seedlings/veg cycle on 24/0 with ZERO problems.. only change it to 12/12 for flower. 24/0 works, just comes to do growers preference.

:peace:

you might want to experiment with the lighting i have found that different strains like different light cycles i get killer growth and added foliage under 16/8 when i had it on 24/0 and 20/4 my growth was steady but minimal and when i hit 16/8 it took off like it was on fire...went to 14/10 and it slowed down again .. so the super skunk is a 16/8 baby with 11/13 in its flower now :) .. like i said experimant and watch the plant .she will tell you just what she wants and needs to jive her up to your nutes well and get you the best plant bongsmilie

thats a sweet design but does it have to be on a nascar?

its a contest from toyota, theres no choice of car. but you can design anything you want, use your own pics, graphics, whatever, its a pretty cool design program. and when youre done designing it, you just hit the print screen button and then paste in "paint" to save and edit the pics.
