    Best way to setup air cooled lights?? (Diagrams!!)

    I have these 3 options and not sure what's best. I only have one 8" exhaust port, fyi. Everything is 8", including the Y connectors(ideal air) which are 8"x8"x8". Parallel: This seems best to me. It only blows into the tent so, unlike the other options, no smell can leak into the light...

    Setting up new tent, ?'s about cooling and need general advice.

    Thanks for the input. In Co btw so I may need a dehumidifier in late flower but doubtful. The garage was previously cropped out, and the electric is crazy in there. There is plenty of 14ga and some 12ga running around in there but none of it is where I need it or doesn't have a box, etc...

    Setting up new tent, ?'s about cooling and need general advice.

    Well. Ran the AC out there for several hours yesterday, only the AC, while setting up everything else. It started smelling like burning plastic in the garage. Pretty sure the outlet wiring was melting the insulation inside the wall. So now I gotta fucking tear everything down and call and...

    Setting up new tent, ?'s about cooling and need general advice.

    Ok so.... I've got the AC inside the tent and it's exhaust is going out the window. This should be plenty of cooling power and also serves as a 9k BTU heater for the winter. I think I'm gonna put the intake and exhaust on a timer where it runs 15 min every hour or so just to exchange the air...

    Setting up new tent, ?'s about cooling and need general advice.

    Putting a 4x8 tent in a detached 2-car garage. Going to veg and flower in same tent(not at the same time obviously). I know this is not ideal but it's what I have to work with. I have various equipment from an old grow, wondering if I should try to use the A/C and/or swamp cooler I have. And...

    So, 1.5 yrs into Legalization in Colorado. what is the Current Rate of Arrests Raids ect?

    The greedy politicians and dispensary owners and their lobbyists are fucking things up. We voted to treat it like alcohol, and they've done everything but.

    best way/place to aquire clones....

    Well.... FML. I've spent the past 2 or more months bugging HB420 for cuts. I got the GG4 cuz of the hype and for trading. I got the Lemon G cuz he had one and it'll make great ice wax. And recently I finally got my fav strain of all time, Triangle. Well, for reasons I'll not go into, I had to...

    Put my 6 plants to best use !!!!

    Yea, well plus there is the ventilation, temp, and humidity issues. I see it becoming difficult with the tent having a wall down the middle.

    best way/place to aquire clones....

    The strain game is so crazy. Esp on hype strains. I prob wouldn't trust CL for the same reasons as not trusting a dispensary. Who knows if its legit, what they've treated with(E20, etc), or what kinda bugs or fungis you might get. I ruined a whole crop after I got PM from some clones from TGS...

    whats wrong? should i start feeding again?

    VERY carefully, lol. I'll explain more below but.... Well, first of all, I'm no expert but feel confident in my advice here.... Btw, did you thoroughly water the pots when you first transplanted? GENERALLY SPEAKING, you need to make sure all of the soil is saturated otherwise you end up with...

    whats wrong? should i start feeding again?

    The bottom of that one looks similar to what happened when I had a clone get chewed in half by a mouse. It started doing that as part of the repair process. Here is the thread: http://rollitup.org/t/is-this-glue-a-gonner.865123/. It fully recovered btw. In your case you might wanna rebury it...

    best way/place to aquire clones....

    Some of those you can get seeds from breeders. But sometimes that is also a craps shoot on the actual genetics, plus you gotta hunt, well, don't have too, esp if you get F5s or S1s or something.

    Tent Ventilation Question - CFM for active intake.

    Forest, My biggest thing is, I didn't really wanna use the passive intake flaps and rely on just the bug meshes as I don't have a super clean area to pull air from. So I want to use at least a shroom/phresh(intake)/hepa filterd port. After talking to the dude at the store I opted for the...

    Tent Ventilation Question - CFM for active intake.

    Hey, I'm a little confused. I think you meant to say active instead of passive in a couple spots, hehe. It sounds like you are suggesting not using an active intake fan but instead put a filter on a port and use that for air intake, correct? That way I can have filtered incoming air but not...

    Tent Ventilation Question - CFM for active intake.

    My tent is about 240 cubic feet. I am planning on using a 400cfm rated inline fan with a 400cfm rated Phresh carbon filter and a speed controller to dial it back a little. I'm looking for a booster fan to use for active intake. It will have a Phresh intake filter on it. Also, there will only be...

    I've looked at gorilla tents at stores. They are very nice. It's just for 1/3 of the price I can get something that will work for me. Not super heavy duty like the gorilla but yea. They have a newer line of tents that are more affordable btw, the Gorilla LITE. The 4x8 is like $200 less and they...

    Hey, thanks for the info. I've read that thread btw, the guy was wrong about them off gassing. It's also pretty old. You should read the latest comments in there. I've read about and looked at gorilla and other higher end ones. The thing I've read the about most of em is they aren't that much...

    Are you saying section off a single 4x8 and veg in half and flower in the other? I'd worry too much light leaking.
