You keep posting on me while I'm replying. :-?

This makes a lot of sense. I've read other places it doesn't really matter if you pull or push air through the filter. Naturally I want to pull the air through it and had it setup like that but I changed it. If that doesn't fix the problem I'll be sure to try it your way before spending any more...

Here's a picture of the old setup: Here's two of the new setup: *Note there's nothing attached to the other side of the cooltube* Bonus pictures of my babies. :mrgreen: I just transplanted them to the 3 gallon pots about an hour ago. The small ones are a week or two behind the bigger...

Well I already took the filter out of the tent and made it the last step in the exhaust cycle. The air is being pushed through it now. This was two hours ago and the smell has gone away. As nice little bonus my temps dropped like 5 degrees. From 81 to 75 degrees. Now I don't know if this is...

I have the filter inside the tent. The filter is ducted to the cooltube light. The cooltube is ducted to the fan. The fan is ducted out of the tent. The walls of the tent, when zipped up, suck inward suggesting a neg pressure inside the tent. The only problems I could possibly think of is a leak...

Sealing the tent is not an option. I'm using a passive intake and if I sealed the tent I'd have other problems. Hooking the filter directly to the fan isn't really an option because I need to cool the light. I guess I could set it up so the air goes from the tent through the cooltube, through...

HGS White Russian. Plants are about a foot tall with fan leaves bigger then my hand.

Did you even read my post? The air is being pulled (yes with flex vent) from inside the tent through the filter, through the cooltube, and out into the bedroom. I'm using a text, the damn thing is made out of poly. Please read the entire post before replying with non sense.

yes, tent zipped up with the 3 vent flaps open. The sides of the tent suck in so there is neg pressure.

I'm starting to have a serious problem with the smell of my plants. Let me tell you a little about my setup. I have a 3.5'x3.5'x6.5' Homebox tent in the corner of a bedroom. Inside the tent I have a 400w HPS cooltube and a 4" 170 cfm exhaust fan. I didn't have the carbon scrubber hooked up until...

What are your temps outside of the tent? You can't expect your tent temps to be any lower then that. I have my tent in a bedroom setup the same as your first run. The temps run about 5 degrees hotter then my bedroom. In the summer it gets in the 90s in the room so a window a/c unit in the...

Seems to be looking good now, love the white roots :mrgreen:. Did you foliar spray your plants at anytime? When using h2o2 and sm-90 you were adding it to the res? What mixture did you use the spray the roots?

That's funny cause I just popped two seeds in paper towels and had planned on potting them in soil. I've spent way too much money not to use my hydro equipment though. I think I'm going to do both, soil for results and hydro to get the experiance. From researching and the advice I got here and...

Day 16 Temp: 74 PH: 5.7, 5.7, 6.1 (left to right) PPM: 250, 180, 200 (left to right) Height: Health: All three are wilted and stressed out. I don't blame them for what I've put them through the last few days. The left most plant has spotty leafs, and one is dry and almost dead even. I gave them...

Sorry to see your having more problems...I seem to be following in your footsteps so I hope you get it sorted out. International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums - The Complete guide to Sick Plants,pH, and Pest troubles! There's a couple pictures that look like what your plants are going through...

Ok so I made a trip to the hardware store and the hydro store. The guy at the hydro store said he didn't think it was root rot, he said I had bugs. This was before I told him about the flies I've been seeing. I guess they leg eggs in the hydroton and rockwool and the larva eat the little hairs...

So I think I might just be in luck. I pulled the water pump and feeder tubes and they were nasty full of gunk. The pictures of the roots taken before were of only one plant and they haven't gotten any worse. The other 2 plants, sitting directly over the bubbles have roots that are pure white...

I think I'll try that. The water pump in there isn't needed anymore now that the roots have hit the water and the feeding tubes are only collecting slime and crap. I'm going to take a trip to the hydro store tomorrow and pick up another air stone to get more bubbles. I'll just clean the res and...

What brand of chiller did you pick up and where did you find it? I'm having the same problems but I just can't afford another $300 purchase.

I'm already over $1000 invested in this grow so there will be no more big purchases, such as a chiller, for some time. I've seen some pretty wicked DWC setup that run at room temp and produce harvest after harvest. A chiller it something I will pickup someday but I just can't afford one for this...
