Well I guess you could keep filter+fan inside the closet?

Uber cool on you grorite for doing this. Good to see that freecycle spirit is still alive :)

As for exhaust heat heat you could always run it through evaporative cooler. As for walls not sure, but I think creating sort of inner "chamber" with walls made of from gypsum boards with few inches of air filled space between them and actual walls should help - thats a bit of work though. My...

Hmm, they're fairly new then. Anyways, while you take the covers off to wash see if you notice any improvement in their effectiveness - if not then it may not be the covers after all. Check ducting for punctures as well.

Cant tell for sure, I throw mine away as in my situation thy seem counter-productive but I would probably just give 'em a gentle hand wash with a bit of soap, they seem like they might disintegrate in the washer, at least those used on prima-klima filters that I use. How new are those filters...

No probs, I'm using the very same kit I linked, bought it 3 years ago and no complaints. I still use CFLs during veg, this grow is last time though. Next grow I will try Metal Halide bulb for veg as this ballast can run both MH and HPS bulbs. Just take into consideration that this HPS bulb gets...

Seems legit although those compact ballasts seem to run crazy hot. I know that this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400W-MAXIBRIGHT-MEGALIGHT-BALLAST-DUEL-SPECTRUM-BULB-REFLECTOR-GROW-LIGHT-KIT-/230847890038?pt=UK_HomeGarden_Garden_PlantsSeedsBulbs_JN&hash=item35bf9b4276 is 15 quid more but it's a...

So here's one of my white widows after receiving first but tiny(2ml per 5l) dose of nutes(biobizz grow), yellowing of tips on the new growth occured about 2 days after watering: Since I fu*ked my soil up(mixed biobizz light-mix with all-mix cuz I needed to repot but didn't have enough of...

All I can tell you is that you do NOT attach a wire to both L1 and L2, only one or the other(different speeds). As far as I know on fan side brown should go to EITHER L1 or L2(live) blue should go to N(neutral), yellow/green(earth) I did not attach at all, my fan been working fine for over 2...

I'm not sure if that will help you in any way but on my current grow 2 out of 4 seedlings(same strain - white widow) had pretty mangled and weird looking first 2 sets of leaves, third one already looked better and all further grow looks normal. I also had a plant like that on my first grow too...

Hey man thx for the reply, much appreciated. I'll skip past the 4000k then and look at the others. One more thing though - does it make any difference that my plants have been under those CFLs for over 2 weeks already? I mean, only changing the light to MH now? I don't think it should be an...

Yeah really :) Well, my fan(its pretty big) was blowing across the canopy AND also the bulb, as the bulb was fairly close to plants( I don't think I ever had it higher than 10 inches above the canopy) and the only time I burned the tops is when I lifted the plants and the main cola touched...

I had my 400w way closer than that and I don't have a cooltube, just a fan blowing across the canopy

Hey folks, Basically the title says it all. I just realized that my HPS ballast can run MH too(duh!) so decided to ditch my vegging CFLs and get a MH bulb instead. There seems to be more 4000k bulbs than 6500k on the market and they are also slightly cheaper. So my question, again - does the...

And just to make things a bit clearer - Air purifier does not necessarily mean ozone generator. And while ozone generator is a good way for odour control it's certainly not good to continously inhale ozone. On the other hand air purifier with a built in ionizer will help remove dust particles...

I've got Amcor Air Processor 2000, I run it in the room where the grow-closet is situated to mop up any smells that might leak from the closet. Closet has carbon filter setup so I'm not sure how much of the smell is getting out but I can say I'm pretty sure that this air purifier on it's own...

I would make a bunch of small holes in them

Mine have always sprouted within 4-6 days. Once planted don't mess with them in any way, let mother nature do her thing :)

You're welcome, just don't let them be too cold when the lights are off once they sprouted and they should be fine. Good luck!

I also have to add that one batch that I planted without the cling film and without the light sprouted just fine as well. Guess moisture in soil and warmth is all that's really needed.
