Thank you. I'm really pleased with their progress so far. I found a small green bug in there.


So I dosed the leaves with SM-90. I hope it helps. Tomorrow or the next day I will change the res.

The digital ballasts are causing problems with the nute monitor. Are there better monitors that are more resistant?

Found this sticker and I thought it was appropriate ;) Now I have to grow a diesel strain on my next run! lol

I ordered the next batch of seeds. I got:
6 "Michelle Moist" by Porno Seeds
1 "LA Woman" by DNA (repeat)
1 "Skunk #1" by G13
1 "Rocklock" by DNA
1 "Lemon Skunk" by DNA (repeat)
1 "Sharksbreath" by DNA

All feminized of course. I'll start all those in about 2 or 3 weeks :) and flower the best 8 or 10.

I wasn't sure I would have the selection I desired so I ordered an extra set of seeds. I will mix & match them to germ about 12, then I'll save the rest for my 3rd run. Right now attitude has a great free-seed offer so it was worth the extra $22 in shipping for 2 seperate orders :) Here's what I ordered:

10 "Super Lemon Haze" by Greenhouse Seeds (2008 Canibis Cup, Landslide Winner)
1 "Kandy Kush" by DNA
1 "LA Woman" by DNA
1 "Skunk #1" by G13
1 "Rocklock" by DNA
1 "Lemon Skunk" by DNA
1 "Sharksbreath" by DNA

Bonus: 1 XXL T-Shirt with ea order ;)

So now I'll have two of each of those bottom ones. Those are ALL supposed to be top shelf shit. I can't wait.

Welcome to my grow. I'd pass you this little peace pipe if I could ;) Welcome to RIU!


So Im kinda banished to my room for the day again. Hiding kinda. Ive been playing with a spreadsheet of strains Ive got ordered. I shoulda maybe done the spreadsheet before I ordered the fukrs . . . but did I mention this little peace pipe? This is what I got.



The only real odd duck it seems is the SLH. And I've got 10 of them coming. And that may be the best of them. I've got time time to chew on it. What experiences can anyone share about any of these strains?

My issue is drying space. I may need to dry the plants in the tent and I can't do that if they're not all done at the same time. Trying to plan this shit a little. I've already got the top 4 plants growing and you can see they're not going to finish at the same time.

I'm also debating drying in the tent or not, but I'd encourage you to check out Al B. Fuct's dryer box - pretty simple, just a Rubbermaid with a fan and a heating element.

I just couldn't resist the smokin deal they have at Attitude right now. I bought 6 Chocolope by DNA hehehe. Of course it comes with another 6 free seeds and a tshirt ;)

That'll give me 3 each of the Sharksbreath, Lemon Skunk, Rocklock, LA Woman & Skunk #1. I should have enough seeds to keep my quiver full for the next 4 or 5 months ;)

I can't wait for my NEXT grow and this one hasn't even gotten to the best parts yet lol. Can you tell Im a noob?

Nice Grow. I have the GL145 and the EBB n Gro in process of getting everything set up. I was looking for pics of your ventilation system. What how do you have your inline fans and air filter set up? Are your temps cool enough without an AC?

My temp stay at about 5-7 degrees warmer than the garage the tent is in. My air system breaks down like this:

Primary Exhaust: 8" 600 cfm (max) inline fan. Sucking air through the carbon filter - exhausting through the roof vent on the opposite side of the house. 6" duct from the filter to the fan, w/ 8" from the fan to the roof. Controlled by a variable-speed thermostat.

Primary Intake: 6" 250cfm sucking air from closest roof vent and blowing it into the garage. Always on for now.

Hood Light cooling: I have a 180cfm duct booster sucking fresh air from the closest vent. Blowing it into the lights. I will be buying (today) another identical booster fan (25watts) for the other end so there will be one sucking AND one blowing on both ends of the light duct. This is all 6". The exhaust is blowing out into the attic on the opposite side of the house.

I also have two 16" oscillating fans just above the flower canopy. Two small 6" fans jsut eliminating dead spots. One High Output 10" floor fan blowing a steady stream down the middle of all the pots.

So I have a reasonable amount of fresh air entering through the blower. This circulates in the garage and enters the tent from the right-side vents. There is a strong fan on the floor pushing the fresh air down the center toward the dehumidier. The dehumidifier sucks in air from the center and expells it straight up. The two oscillating fans mix it all up above the plants and the warmer air goes out the carbon filter at the top of the tent.

The humidity wasn't a problem until I threw in the HPS bulbs. It's a good thing I bought the dehumidifier when I did. These 8 plants are drinking more than 2 gallons of water a day. And that's even with the dehumidier dumping it's waist water back into the reservior! I water every 3 hours during lights on - never during lights off.

There should be a couple pics of the vetilation setup in the 4x4 back in my journal.

When it gets cold out and the exhaust fan's thermostat doesn't tell it to run, the fact that the intake fan is constantly on will be an issue for smell prevention - that positive pressure is not a good thing.

If anything, you'd want your exhaust fan to always be on.

It has the option of never shutting off at night. I may switch to that. As soon as the morning temps hit though the exhaust comes back on. It hasnt caused any smell issues yet, but it could. Lemme think about it.

Trust me, when those ladies get to stinking in a couple of weeks and there's positive pressure pushing air out of any little hole in the tent that it can find, there's gonna be serious smells escaping.

It's not positive pressure in the tent, it's positive pressure in the garage (where the tent is). I hear what you're saying though.
