    AirCooled shades + duct work condensation

    got some questions, need some answers!!

    18plants in three gallon pots is alot of foliage for such little light; therefor, i would guess maybe half LB since the bud might be fluffy. But, on the other hand, if you keep your lights close together the plants canopy near the buds should bulk up. Now. That me being honest! Again, with all...

    AirCooled shades + duct work condensation

    Hi, With six 1000watts in a row and two 8inch vortec fans; one fan pulling and other pushing, does the condensation going into the shade cause any risks? My ducting is pulling from the outside and has a few feet slack to allow the shade to move up and down. With bellow zero temps and high...

    Air cool and heat!??

    If I run two 8 inch fans think I would be able to squeeze 8 lights in a row? I run 10 lights on a flip flop and kinda want to re design! So more lights for me in a row is better!

Theirs two ideas, one is rid as much chlorophyll as ya can, and second is to eliminate as much salt in the soil, causing your plants to consume what nutt's they have had on reserve-such as chlorophyll. by doing both will make sure...

    Leaf turning ORANGE and curling...?

    Your leaf turning orange and curling is not because of thrips k. Your problem is very easy to resolve. I have seen this problem, in similar cases, fixed by readjusting your base line nuts. I would make sure u are not only mixing right but getting your ratio's of NPK correct; doing so, will allow...
