I think I'll try Northern lights next round. The leftover nutes are making the window garden look great.
yea the low flyers take same time and produce less amount of less potent and less tasty smoke than the ghs greenomatics, if u wanna try something like the lfers, the omatics are quite nice

Nice. Look like they're about 4ish weeks in?
What do you have going on with the open ended cool tubes? Haven't seen that before.

Ya around the 4 week mark.
I leave the tubes open until the plants start smelling. Then I attach a fan/filter combo to the open ends (any day now). Its real cold in that back corner. The fan for the lights is on a themostat so when the room hits 80* fans kick on...cool air is pumped in the room as the hot air exchanges through the tubes and out an attic vent. This way I have no need for a/c for about 8 months. If I leave an exhaust fan on constant it sucks my heat out. I only have 100 amp panel so conserving power is key. I dont do co2 cause this is def no sealed room lol. I have 2 other systems the same as the one pictured for a total of 12 flowering plants.

Well i may not be perfect, as you said, but sure sounds pretty sweet to me. In fact, your desrciption just gave me a probable a/c solution to dial in my set up...

Thanks!

We are at an advantage being in a cold climate. That being said, I cant pull -30 c outside air over my bulbs so I pull from my basement floor..its all I got.

Thought you said central Ontario. If it's still -30 there I'm not going to my cabin around Parry Sound.

Was gonna go up for March break but I didn't cut enough firewood. Might have enough for a weekend to shovel off the roof and wake up the bear hibernating bear out back. He's about 3 years old and likes the raspberries on the south slope.

No grow up there. It would be deer feed in a week. Massasauga rattles closer to GB. Like Killbear park. All I get are Garters, Hognose and some kind of black water snake. I shop at Loblaws for my meat.

How the heck do you keep wildlife away without putting a big red flag over the plant? Springs coming.
