Happy 4:20 :)!!! Man, am I high or what?!! this is the perfect way to spend 4:20 ripped out of my mind on GREAT WHITE SHARK! Perfect timing :) lol, Glad you've enjoyed everything so far.. Hash making should be the next thing I document in this thread! and Yer I'll prob do a smoke test on that too :) I was well happy with the GWS's yield and all the nugs were tight and well formed :) I'll prob start my next grow in a few months or so (Got family commitments etc) - STELTHY :leaf:

Hi Stealthy. How loud is your fan going full throttle?
Click to expand...
Hi dude, its about as loud as holiday hotel air conditioning, well a bit quieter....lets say it is noticible when on full but I got away with running a 400W HPS lamp in a cupboard and only having it turned up just over half way.. and I also enclosed the fan in a sound-proofed box (top section) so for me it was fairly quiet :) it depends on your setup, it's location and the lamps wattage as to how loud n fast it will be.. Its a really good in-line fan and does its job well...

The only thing I may have done differently.. Is maybe up-size the in-line fan from a 6" to an 8" or 10" and have it run slower... It could still happen.. If it saves me drilling through my ceiling to enable me to run the 600W'r in there!!, but the bigger fans DO carry a bigger price tag too!!

hope that help's lowryder666 :) any more question...feel free to ask! - STELTHY :leaf:

I will most likely start another grow sometime between July and October... I have shit loads of family and friend related things to do and don't want to have things rolling whilst there are more than a few people in my house, and also in these later month's I can take advantage of the cooler temps :) I have Hash Making and a handfull of mods to do and document 1st :) + pics etc... I am trying to get hold of some Fem'd Morrison Haze any ideas where I could score these from? - STELTHY :leaf:

For the time being I am going to kit out a mini grow cab, its actually the 1st one I ever made..nearly 7 years ago.. I am doing this so a friend of mine can use it and take it off my hands since the wife has insisted on our place looking minimalistic and that means: No spare grow-cab's lurking in the bedroom lol.. It's already pretty much all done but I figured I'd share the mini Project..Whilst I am waiting for my mates GWS Clone to finish so I can add his GWS leaves and shwag etc to mine and then I'll document the HASH Making :) Pics will be coming soon, Enjoy! - STELTHY :leaf:

This was my 1st ever Grow-Cab..it did me proud!! I originally ran a single 150W ENVIROLIGHT CFL, a 5L RES, a tiny air-pump and small airstone, and 2X CPU FANs...

Things will change very slightly mainly the lighting....I will most probably use an old 90W LED UFO and decorate a little :) ...Ah it brings back memories..I found the Kitchen Cab in someones garden waiting for anyone to take it..infact there were 2..Another mate took that one and we instantly knew the potential of the cabs.. and thus is how my first STELTHY CAB was born :) I wish I had some old pics to show y'all, I grew A couple of AFGAN KUSH's in there it was a great harvest...just in time for Christmas.. I pulled 3oZ off a single AFGAN KUSH RYDER on my 1st ever attempt!...it had an awesome smell about it!! :)

Still its a bit of History :) - STELTHY :leaf:

26" WAS the max grow height last time....I am going to see if a UFO will allow me to utilize an extra 4" or so.. - STELTHY :leaf:

Both the in and out-takes (LOL @ the size of my ducting runs lol) :) ah to be young lol.. a washing machine water pipe will do! :) lol I connected the washing machine hose to a cheap ASDA cake mixing bowl and kinda melted and glue gunned it together to the back of the cab where the In-take is and then ran the hose to a boarded up chimney with one small hole purposley for the guaranteed cool intake!

I filtered the out-take with a cheap cooker carbon filter pad and vented that into the house. Both In and Out-take fans ran slowly so a window left ajar in the house was sufficient for good air exchange.. and better Humidity levels. The air pump used to be house'd inside too but the need for extra height won and forced me to knock-out the top compartment etc etc.. and that never got painted in either lol...

I have a few subtle mods in store for this cab...BUT don't really want to spend more than a tenner doing it, cos I'd be pretty much paying to give the cab away after lol... I may charge my mate 25 for parts and labour, Lol :) - STELTHY :leaf:

I think I'll start by rolling a fatty joint of Great White Shark and pouring myself a cold beer, then I will sand-out all the imperfections and fill any random holes with multi-purpose filler... That will be my 1st step on restoring my ol' faithful :) - STELTHY :leaf:

This is where I hid the multi plugs (on the back) and that helped keep it STEALTH, I will prob either keep this, or maybe add an extra 4-way if required :) - STELTHY :leaf:
