(not so)QUICK UPDATE:
I have ordered seeds not from Hemp Depot for reasons I will try to explain briefly. I had to include my girlfriend in my little operation because I figured the consequences of her finding out without me telling her about it would be far worse than making her feel a part of my new hobby. Plus she can take care of the plants when I have to leave town from time to time. She has taken an oath of secrecy and wants to smoke the stuff as much as I do so I can trust her but now she wants to buy some of the supplies. This may sound like a good thing but that means there will conflict over what to buy, for instance the seeds that people who know what they're doing recommended or the ones with the pretty pictures. So I laid down the law, said, "Hemp Depot, no questions." Long story short, we ended up going with the ones with the pretty pictures.:roll: I wanted to show her that you guys know what's up but this site is my little secret. So I'll be starting a new journal soon with Bubblicious, Super Skunk, and Jock Horror(Jack Herrer, whatever) from Nirvana. She wants to pay the $98 for the seeds and whatever the nutes will cost so I figure why not. Sorry for a picless update but its lightsoff right now. I will say the flowers are coming along nicely. I'm such a tease. Will post pics this evening. Seacrest out.

I've heard great things about all 3 of these. Bubblicious is Bubblegum; on of the best tasting strains out there (very resinous, taste like bubblegum, and long-lasting high). Super Skunk is sure to be super-potent. I've seen LOTS of people say Jock Horror is the most potent they've ever smoked. You better get you a carbon filter for these girls (do not go cheap here). Maybe you can get your old lady to shell out for that too.

Yeah, even though I had to make her feel like it was her decision, these were my three favorites of the ones with nice pictures for her to see. Bubblicious was an easy sell for obvious reasons but the other two took some convincing. I did a lot of research on carbon filters before I started my present grow but my plants haven't really started to stink that much yet so I never took action. The problem I ran into was that they required a seal (wall/door) between the area with the plants and the area which the filtered air is pumped into. I like to keep all doors open as much as possible to keep the temps down and fresh air in there. Anyone know of a good strategy for this, like an effective standalone unit I could place near the bedroom door? I know having two strains with at least partially skunk genetics is going to reek.

Whats up with the muffler ???:-?

That's a product of my first hobby. I'm starting to get out of the whole street racing thing, though. It's still fun and all but the risks and consequences just became too much the older I got... Says the guy growing weed in his closet, haha. I'll move it out of there soon.

I've heard good things about Vaportek. I don't have any experience with them though. Their Vaportronic is supposed to be the shit. Odor Control Products, Odor Elimination Products, Air Treatment Products :: Vaportek You should consider researching these before you spend money on anything.

Mared thats cool your gonna go with Bubbilicious, i can't wait to watch. I am glad I went with it for my first grow.(ODOR) I use a 6'' inline fan connected to the top of a PHAT filter just scrubbing my grow room air. They were getting real stinky and now since I got the Phat filter, i can stand in there and barely smell a thing. Its in the corner of the grow room, but i ran it seperate for a few hours to let all the loose carbon and particals blow out. In your case being your grow area isnt closed or sealed I dont know;_

Wow, I am feeling extremely paranoid right now. I just came home and found a little card on my endtable that says, "Maintenance Service Update. A member of the maintenance team entered your apartment today for a service request/inspection." I for damn sure didn't make a service request and have lived here for almost two years without any intrusions like this. The worst part is my secondary closet with the CFLs was open for all to see. There is no way they could not have seen it. I'm fucking freaking out waiting for the cops to bust down the door any moment. Thought I'd make a post here before doing anything crazy like ditching my plants but what do you guys think? If the guy had told the office and they told the cops, would I be busted by now? The time that associate, Paul, wrote down is 11:15, almost six hours ago. Are they waiting until after 5pm? This really sucks ass. Would he really have left the card saying he was here if he was going to report me? Please someone, I need a second opinion on this.

They can't enter your apt. legally without giving you notice. So I don't think they are going to press it. I think he left the card just to let you know he knows.
Anyway you can contact the person who entered your apt ??

Well I'm happy to report that I'm still free but every noise I hear outside in the hall sounds like the ATF coming for me. Just kidding, I think I'm in the clear. I got out of my apartment for a couple hours to try to get some perspective on the situation. I did have the blower motor unit replaced in my AC unit last month because it was making a hellish noise. I made sure to be home when the guy came for the repairs. I was very polite to the him and he was really cool. We talked about cars because that was the only experience I had with blower motors and I even offered him a beer which he drank while we talked. I just can't remember if his name was Paul. I'm really hoping that was the guy because he seemed like a toker himself. And it seems to make sense that he would check one month later to make sure the blower is still working. I'm sure I would have heard something by now. I'm assuming police act pretty quickly when they hear someone is growing. I still probably won't get much sleep for the next few nights:roll:
