I used a semi gloss pure white from Behr. Washable, mold resistant, looks fantastic and has amazing reflectivity.

Funny that you say this. I just had to get my dehu going as I'm now pumping out big RH numbers. Wow, how things change overnight!!

There ya go, this is exactly what I was waiting for someone to post. Here's some info that might help you sleep a bit better. https://www.reddit.com/r/hydro/comments/2bwygy/what_would_happen_if_my_1000w_bulb_were_to/ Melting point of glass is roughly 2800F. I think the point is, don't worry...

This is a great idea! I'll be looking into that for myself.

There's definitely no safety feature built into light bulbs which protect against damage. That being said, it's unlikely that a bulb will melt itself. The likely outcome of your cooling system failing is your plants being burnt to a crisp. In theory you could set up your light controller to...

Don't worry buddy. You don't have broad mites. Your leaves would be extremely glossy. Example of broad mite damage.

I just recommended this fan in the "Quiet" thread. I love my 10". https://www.amazon.com/Hyper-Fan-Stealth-Germination-Equipment/dp/B00S27SRI0/ref=sr_1_1?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1508358042&sr=1-1&keywords=hyper+fan+silenced I don't have any experience with the Vortex S-lines, and I haven't...

I just wanted to share with everyone a product which I am using which I highly endorse. Hyperfan Stealth: https://www.amazon.com/Hyper-Fan-Stealth-Germination-Equipment/dp/B00S27SRI0/ref=sr_1_1?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1508358042&sr=1-1&keywords=hyper+fan+silenced Digitally controllable...

Great, hope it all works out for you! I would greatly recommend this fan in particular: https://www.amazon.com/Hyper-Fan-Digital-Mixed-Flow/dp/B00JGC7LC8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1508357955&sr=8-2&keywords=hyper%2Bfan&th=1 Either the 6" or 8" model. It is digitally controllable, so you will be...

I disagree with this. As others have stated here, and in my experience with "DIY CO2" in the aquarium hobby, the yeast method results in such an inconsistent and unpredictable CO2 creation that it really just isn't worth it. The hassle of bottled or propane based CO2 generation would be dwarfed...

In my opinion, the second model in my image is the way to do it. Get one big filter, and a large fan. Hope the image makes sense to you.

Yep, I've gone deep into Growmau5's content. I've literally watched every video, and most of the lives streams. The ChilLED tech lights are insanely expensive, but they are a small company so that's to be expected. I'll definitely look into the QB's. Do you have a link to that grow log?

If you're so concerned about smell, I honestly don't understand why you are even debating the filter issue. Get something big and badass, and filter the living shit out of your air. Hell, get two filters even. Think about it. If you grew 2 oz per plant at 10 plants, that's over a pound of...

While this is true, the thermoflow is the best readily available insulated duct IMO. Extremely durable, almost impossible to rip, fire retardant, extra vapor barrier, etc.

Thanks for sharing. My night time temps will be in the 50's and high-mid 40's into winter. I may be able to knock out another grow (after this one finishes) before Spring, but I'll likely try to phase in LED sooner and change up my set up significantly. Pop your head into my grow thread once...

Depends what you are looking to spend. For the price of a new 1000 HPS fixture and electronic ballast, you might be able to get yourself into a high quality LED fixture which would blow you away. You may wish to head into the LED section for recommendations, as honestly I don't feel qualified...

I for one have really enjoyed your posts. You cite many more sources than most of the people belittling and attacking your info. Maybe you're right, maybe you're wrong. But I think that the multitudes of people attacking your posted information throughout several threads in the advanced section...

Wow! What a wealth of plant science knowledge. Bookmarked, I've got learning material for the next week! Thanks for sharing!

I most certainly don't disagree with adhering strictly to the VPD chart. I've had quite a lot of difficulty actually keeping my humidity high enough. Especially through veg. They are certainly starting to produce much more humidity being in the start of week 2 of flower, but still nowhere near...

Why can't you do the mini split install? It will solve all the issues you are having, and the air handler is such a simple install (literally just mount the bracket, screw down the 3 wires, and connect the two refrigerant lines. An air handler install should literally take less than an hour.)...
