my carbon filter Is TINYYYY compared to urs...makes me wanna re think my filter...but ehh fuck it its out in the garage and Im installing a door sweep and weatherstripping around the door frame to keep all the smell to the garage... EXCELLENT JOB dude...they look beautifl... makes me wanna rethink just having a fan ocsilating. I like how u have ur fan facing upwards. not directly on the plants but is sucking air from bottom and throwing it right at the carbon filter where its exhausting....I like it

Nice... But I'd rather see info and pics, YouTube slows down my 'puter - maybe others feel the same?

Thank you for the feedback guys!
@bde001 overkill is under rated, thats why I can get away with running a 1000w hps bare bulb in a 4x4x6 with no AC. :D
@gagekko pics and info will follow :P
@ errd the videos are easy once you get past the awkwardness of talking to yourself..

Close up GQDSCF7816.jpgDSCF7814.jpg
DawgFireDSCF7825.jpg

My medium is Canna Coco, which is the third time I have re-used the medium. Each time it was allowed to sit for at least a week and was amended with Root Bloom (Premium Endomycorrhizae and Bacterial Inoculant)

My base nutrient is Maxi-Bloom @ 1 EVEN Tsp. per gallon, I also you Green Planets Massive @5ml Per gallon week 2 on. And once a week I will do a light flush which consists of hygrozyme, cal mag, and Amino Aide.

Any other questions or comments please post!

You've got skills. Seems to me like you should be putting them to more use like a larger area. Great work. I usually just keep my mouth shut if I have nothing nice to sat so I hope you know this is sincere. I have no problem telling you that your plants are healthier than most plants I see on here. Thats why I'm always quiet :) I usually have nothing nice to say :P

A buddy and I are actually building out a 20x20x20 building. We will be running 8k watts, bare bulb of course. Thanks for the compliments!

SB,

Exact dimensions I have available, maybe 7' high in a tent. Following with great interest. Is there a previous thread with the specifics of your room?

Initially planned to soil grow, but your plants are bitchin'. Figure it might be time to get smart on what you're doing. I'd appreciate any advice. Also, what are those planter sizes and # of plants in there now? Thanks.

mh is this your first grow? If so I would highly recommend soil, specifically fox farm ocean Forrest ammended 30% with big a chunky perlite. Also do not feed for the first two weeks. Straight Ph,ed water for the ocean Forrest. My container size is 3 gallons. I have 7 plants in my room now, but I think 6 would be best. If you need more info just ask! :D

2nd grow. FF user, soil and nutes, i understand they run hot. anymore, it's tough to find chunky perlite around here, is there a suitable sub...? or i can prolly order online. if 6 is ideal, might use remaining soil and side by side a few following your example. or, will stick with OF, as you recommend. what about bigger pots? appears your girls are backed up against reflectix, how close will you allow them to a bare 1000w? Thanks muchly

Well if it is your second grow I think you might be ok running coco. Just remember it has NO nutrient value. Also water when the top of the coco turns a light brown. I would grab a 2.2lb bag of maxi bloom from your local hydro store (about 20 bucks) Drip Clean from House and garden and some canna coco. The canna coco is 20 bucks a bag, but its the best coco hands down. You will need two bags for six, three gallon containers. In coco bigger pots are not necessary, you want to be watering the coco everyday if possible and 5 gallon pots stay saturated too long for plants under 4 ft IME. If you have a fan under the bulb you could get as close as 12" which is where one of my anesthesia's is at. I do not reccomend this and I think 30" from the main stem is best.
