15000 btu portable ac unit. split the exhaust going up into the attic and attack the exhause from the ac to it with the carbon filter. then make a gaurd in from of ac unit to send the cold air straight up and then fan it over the top of room and let the cool air mix with the hot air. problem solved. ill have to buy another ac unit for my other room now but hey the ladies come first. and Sweeve ty bro.

i have a carbon filer then a 250 cfm fan pulling air to exhaust to the attack. im gonna spit the line and add in my ac unit exhaust which is 125 cfm my 6" line can handle aropund 400 cfm so ill be good. both will still go to attack oh hey will my ac unit suck in smell? ill have to test it. i may be buying a air cooled light case. ill see. i may just do that. or i can get a charcoal odor filter and put infront of my ac unit air in. yeah ill go look now.

Okay i have the 600 watt hps in and running. the ac unit in hooked up and running. moved plants in. they was out to long so i didnt take pics yet. i want them to get used to the light which is at max height and max power. tomorrow ill lower the light 4-6 inches which is where it will stay for a another day. i can say there is a huge diff beteen 75%(450 watts) and 600.

Brrr it was 72 in there. had to back off the ac a bit. i left for 2 hrs so i wouldn't sit and mess with it.im the morning ill lower the lights 6 inches and see how that looks and give them a day to adjust. i think doing slow is good so shock doesnt set in. i also ordered Potassium Phosphate and azomite. the 2 will help my ladies tons.

im watching others and ready tons of threads. i was looking for 2 things and i found them booth in last couple days. i said screw it and ordered them. i need micro minerals bad and also i want my buds to really thrive. so im gonna spoil my ladies a bit more so then spoil me later. Molasses and reg bloom nutes can only do so much.

I subbed too. Interesting to see the hps. Actually the whole show. I just added a 300 watt LED to a tent with 240 watt led and 3 54 watt T5 HO for side lighting. So the pump air into the soil?

this is my test grow. all the plants in my flower room almost drowned i make a mistake lol. so they are not as fat as they should be and i also stretched them allot. the c99 now she has had no issue except 1 leaf touched a cfl and it burnt it a bit. hit google and search for this "air injection soil" watch the old guy on 5 diff videos. even transplanting into bigger pots is easy. I'll post pics tomorrow after i adjust the light and move fans ill have to wake early so i can turn of timer and take pics. that 600 is a beast of a light and sweene you rock.

my molasses is my cal mag. you dont see any issues on my leaves. i'v always used molasses the soil breaks it down. the only time i had issues when i was using some old organic nutes that had cal mag and tons of other goodies in it. my plants didnt like that at all. You dont use allot. well i use 1 tbls in flower room per day for 5 plants and 1/2 tbls in veg. i dont know why you had issues with it. it does whats its supposed to, the longer you use it the more is in the soil to break down. I had stopped using molasses on the plants that are now in flower for 4 weeks and they was getting def I started again and bam fixed. My c99 has had molasses her whole life she drinks 100-140 ounces of water/feed a day right now. Its huge the kind of molasses you use. see most of them have way to much iron in them. mothers regular is the one to use. its more expensive but has lower iron. and when the buds are harvested they will be fruitier tasting. I experimented with it a long long time ago. my outdoor plants would get it every watering and they also got sprayed with pepper spray to prevent bugs and then 1/2 cup poored around the soil. I just woke up. ill reread what i said in a few min. edit: that video is from nector of the gods. of coarse he is gonna say molasses is bad. he wants you to buy his stuff. i would not use molasses in pure hydro setup or soiless. But for soil always.

Damn dude you are an early riser. Plants are looking good. And i agree, another thing about molasses is you need to make sure it is unsulphured (not you actually just speaking vaguely. Knly way i have heard it be bad is gunking up soil, to which i reply , how much are you using???

you using those new led's for flower right? I cant even see the led foot print lmao the hps over powers it. but i know its working. I have 2 plants getting the led but they are also getting the hps also. I lowered my light 6 inches. the temp is staying between 76-80 it bounces around a bit. ill need to adjust 1 more fan so i can get more cool air on the far side of room over the ladies there. Oh yeah i have so much exhaust when i sealed up my room it vacuum sealed lmao. im gonna have to get 1 more inline 6" fan to suck more air into the room for at night.

Yup the RW-75s will pretty much be for flower, I mean the plants will grow in veg till they reach sexual maturity under 12/12 but for the most part flowering use. Ya i have noticed it is alot easier to take pictures with my cam under my IG which is fluorescents of a sort... you tried playing with the white balance at all in your settings, might help with the lightung issue, only suggestion for back corner is to zoom in and crop the pic down
