Define high. Last month it was $217.60. We have two teenagers with in televisions and computers in every room except the bathrooms, 1400 sqft. house in Michigan. My combined gas and electirc will be around $400.00 for Dec-Feb. The air conditioner pulls more electric in the summer, all three months, than my lights do. I only have 1720 watts over all four of those tables, so I'm spending less than what you would for 2-1000 watt furnaces, not to mention the difference in heat issues, and available height for growing. Does that answer your question?? VV

The table that was trimmed down to nothing on11/15, two weeks flowering. This is the first table that will have T-5 lighting for the entire flowering period, its the test one. I will have to take smoe more plants off this table as soon as possible, took three off so far. 6 weeks flowering, mixed 6 weeks and 10 weeks and last all 10 weeks of flowering. I include a good bud just becasue I love you man. Turn the page. VV

Here we go on the road again... here we go up on stage... So I was at Menards the other day and ran across this air cleaner for a work shop. It has a couple of washable filters inside with a 265cfm fan. It will clean the air in a 17x17x8 foot room every 10 minutes. Kinda sounds like a refrigerator running, fairly quite. $70.00. And here is a shot of a decent looking bud, not like that other good one. VV

Soo.. I stood there looking at the plants. The 10 week flowering table is so full of colas I can't tell where one plant stops and another one starts. This give me concern about the low yield we might get from having so many multiple cola plants. And it gets me thinking about what I should do next. The ones that have been in flowering for two weeks under the T-5's are just getting to dense and they are all ready budding. Here are pictures of the 3 strains from the front. I am also including a picture of a 6 week flowering cola I have concerns about, it looks like its exploding. Whats wrong with it?? I'll address more of that later. Turn the page. VV

Here are pictures of the tops of those same plants. They have buds all over. Normally I would trim off the bottom 1/3 at this point, they never had flowers this quickly before. I don't want to lose any of the yield from the tops. Would you trim these again or just try to get them spread out more as soon as you could?
What makes me think I need to do something, I just don't know what, is the condition of the plants that are at 6 weeks of flowering. They look 'too' healthy, they have multiple bud sites, not just at the top, all over. Here's a couple of shots of them so you can see what I mean. Any suggestions? VV

"Check" Mate will be the harvest or I will have to give up my queen, probably for a pawn. I'm beginning to think that potraosts reminder that air stones are needed with organic nutes and the addition of the 'Fossil Fuel' are having more of an effect than I thought they would. I think the humic acids in my nutrients are being allowed to do there job because of the addition of the 'Fossil Fuel'. And the ventilation, the change to the wall mounted fans etc. has made all of it work better.Can we sustain it for 10 more weeks. VV

I haven't had it in use long enough to tell. And since I smoke occasionally, someone else is going to have to tell me. If it doesn't seem like it is doing the job I will get another of the carbon filter's like I used in the bud dryer to go in place of or in addition too the existing filters in it. Depending on the set-up in your room it could replace a floor fan that has been used to keep air moving around your reservoirs. Another thing I have found effective is large sticks of incense, don't burn them, put one in front of a fan and let it blow. Have to be careful though, if you get just the right scent it will speed up your labido. That would kill an old man like me.is this pretty effective for the smell? i would be interested in purchasing one.
Soo.... it's been a month now, seems like years.lol And only 2 1/2 months to go now. VV

Guys you really need to forget about the carbon filters and get one of these things!! They are cheap and work like crazy!! Don't go trying to outbid each other; just bid on another one; they have thousands of them. You'll have to do a couple of mouse clicks to find ones that are not bidded on yet. You can pick it up for $21 including shipping and it comes from Hong Kong. The instructions and packaging is hilarious but ignore that and just put in the air freshener thingy and plug it in. There is a Hi/Lo switch to best suit the size of your cabinet or room. Nongreenthumb uses two of these in a big room and he said it's more than adequate. You won't regret it!

I appreciate the information. I remember he posted that some time back. I don't have a 'smell problem'. I have discussed this with folks that have been here and all of them say they can't tell anything outside of my garage. The carbon filtering, if I add it will be more to take advantage of the larger fan I would want to install before I would put in co2. Most of the information I have seen says you want co2 15 on 15 off with your fan on the opposite 15 minutes. My little in line 500cfm is not going to be able to handle that. VV

When I get to that point I hope to have some time to research growing oyster mushrooms. The way Harley explained it's kinda like a do it youself Boost Bucket, the ones that produce co2 for about three months, $125.00 initial, then $100.00 refills. Do your own using oyster mushrooms have a second saleable crop, three bag rotation, 90 days and harvest, start another bag. It would match my rotation and I think I have the room height to work with, its not all taken up with hid lights. Harley is the one that explained how far ahead the Australian are with there use of hydro etc. He also explained some thing's he taught Dutch growers with his use of humic acids etc. to control pests for lettuce and Strawberry crops. A little out of my league but it has stuck in my mind for a little over a year now. VV
