shit, you have been a bussy fella. The new cab accomodates the girls nicely mate.
just a generic question for you, i see that you run you your feed line through one pot then onto the next, does the 1st pot recieve 'extra unwanted volume' because of this?
I was thinking a T juction in the middle of the two could eliminate this.
nice job on the plumbing anyway, im guessing that is easily accessed in pic#6

That there is some nice buds....can i ask how much you smoke? cos if that were my harvest unfortunaely if im out at the time i find it hard to give them the proper curing time as i smoke fuck loads and keep taking buds out early

anyway i thought i'd show you some tiny hygrometer's i bought ti fit INSIDE my mason jars....if i EVER get to grow and harvest my indoor grows that is lol

hey guys i live in tassie and the max i seen my temps is at 31c lol with no fans so i think im the opposite to you guys i dnt need a cool tube as night hours would be to cold i think

my tent sits on 28c most the time with no fans at all!

im debating wheather to put both my 6" fans in or not as my tin shed is not sound proof an those fans make a bit of noise
but yeah 15 mins out of an hour should't matter to much.

acually i lie just went to check my tent an the house fan i had in there was off temps where at 34 so i guess that fan does a lil more than i thought

Thanks for the ideas guys, I have decided against the cool tube for now, because the shed does get cold at night, and the light keeps it warm in there. I hadn't thought of just veging for 17hrs.
For today I just opened up the bottom zips, and part way up the middle zip and place the flaps around a pedastal fan, it was just before 10 and the temp was 30.9, and instead or rising it dropped back to 30.1 and stayed there until 11 when I turned it off. im happy with this for now, because I think if the temps are ok its still better for the plant to get that extra hour, even if it has a little light leaking in that time. The way my house and yard is set up there is no visibility from neighbours to that shed, so no issue there, noise however is a different matter.

Im not worried about flowering as the lights wont be on at all during the day, I'll run them from 7 to 7, so the temps will be much easier to control, heres hoping anyway :)

bout 50% id say it's a slight hum outside my shed now.
was pretty loud before hand.
now ya gotta be quiet an try an listen for it to hear it.
the fan is only on every 15 mins out of every hour when the light is on and only 15 mins every 2 hours when the light is off
dunno if this is enough yet will monitor as i grow.

not sure where to get a styrofoam box

fish shops might have i use to be a fish filleter we got big attlantic salmon in them.
my mum had a few from that chrisco stuff i just grabbed that.

yeah thats a good idea lacy

anything will work really once uve got ya ducting conneted just wrap it in something id say a thick sleeping bad would be insulated also.
i was thinking of wrapping it in thick blankets also but im happy with my setup

What a great idea, I have a big kick ass inlet fan, but its too noisy to run, something like that might be just what I need. Where can I get a styrofoam box from? and how much does it actually reduce the noise?
A veggie shop will have second hand boxes - Broccoli comes packed in them.
Seafood wholesalers/retailers should have some too, but they will smell a bit :-)
If you are near Tingalpa (Brisbane) there is a mob called Polyfoam that make the boxes but you would need to buy their minimum quantity (about 6) and they have a wide range of sizes.

if you cant find the boxes check rays outdoors, bcf etc, i wanted clean sterile foam boxes, guess what? cheap styrofoam eskies guys, perfect lid seal and most have 2 rope handles, slice and theres inbuilt hangers! i picked mine up from a camping seconds store, 10 of em, 4 sizes for 20 bucks!
just an 'expanded mind' idea lol worked perfect for me
