I had some chile plants in a different room from my tent and they have just been found to have an aphid infestation. So far so good in the tent but I am conscious that once aphids take hold in an environment they tend to spread like wildfire, so want to prepare myself in case they do get into...

This made me laugh :) Far from it! It could be that it's slightly cooler where it is in the tent as it's dwarfed by the giant super lemon haze next to it. I'm flushing her now, and hoping that the trichs will mature, as I'm only about 1/4 cloudy at the moment.

I have two autos and two photos, and the auto which is closest to being done just doesn't seem to be drinking, and has been that way for the last couple of weeks. She is being stubborn and slow to finish, I wonder whether this is in part down to whatever is causing her not to drink. By "not...

About a pound. Sorry. From what I have read, average yield from autos is 1/2 - 1 oz, though I've read of people getting 4oz out of some strains (particularly high yielding ones). My guess would be along the 1/2 to 1 oz lines

Thanks, I'll give this a go, if I get any smelly leaks I'll revert to plan A. Not wanting to grow in the tent, but rather to "extend the environment" by placing a box outside the tent, over the intake vent, so air is drawn through the drying box and into the tent.

I'm keen to keep the smell contained within the carbon filtered system, but I hear what you're saying. In light of that, I'll use a large enough box that I can keep the drying plant off to one side so it isn't right in the airflow but so there is some air exchange going on. Thanks foe the advice!

Ok, so the stink drops off fairly rapidly from what you're saying #GrowinDad thanks. The question about the box.... the reason for having the box is that I understand the best way to dry the plant is in darkness, with good airflow. I will use a cardboard box with a hole cut into each side...

You need to examine the trichomes using a magnifier, or at the very least a decent macro lens on a camera. Look for as close to all cloudy gland heads as possible, there will be some amber and some clear, but you want as high a ratio of cloudy as you can. Hope that helps.

I will be harvesting my grown in stages, owing to different flowering times. My initial plan was to install a cardboard box right outside my tent so it's sitting on the intake, drawing air through the box and into the tent. Few questions about this: 1) Is this likely to cause humidity...

Depends on how easy the airflow gets through it. If a breeze is getting through easy enough it'll be fine, but otherwise you might wanna throw a battery operated fan in there in an appropriate place.

PS it looks damn tasty for a random bag seed too, luck is on your side :D

And it will be about a pound.

Looks very close. Grab a magnifier and check the trichomes under high magnification though, as it's the only way to tell. Harvest when they are as close to 100% cloudy as can be - some will be amber, some will still be clear. Just get as close as you can to all cloudy then chop.

GH will do fine I think.

I bought one today and opened it up, straight into the block, no plastic seal. I cannot remember if my last one had a seal, but I seem to remember it did. This new one is nowhere near as effective. I want to know if the shop have conned me and sold me the one they had open for sampling.

If no coco nutes, get hydro nutes. Maybe Vitalink Max?

Theoretically you can use any nutes on coco, it just behaves differently from soil in that when you water until you see runoff, you know it has flushed out all the old salts and nutes from the soil. However, some nutes are specifically meant for coco, some for hydro, some for soil etc. Whilst...

and bump again, off the first page yet again with no replies :(

eh? wth? he's so close to finished now!

Ok thanks, so i guess go for the long duct if I end up with o3, otherwise keep it as short as poss. I do have a spare carbon filter as I upgraded, but not a spare inline fan alas.
