FLOWER! :D
So after 4 long hours of shuffeling things around setting up and messing around i finally got my 600w in tent#1 and hooked up to my exhaust fan, i took cuttings from my plants and started to clone them, 3 from VK1, 3 from VK2, 2 from PC1 and 1 from PC2 (looks weak) and have put them under a 55w lamp on a 18h scedule with heating in the dome on 24/7. i have put the 600w on 12h cycle now to start the flowering, a question here if will there be a strong smell/heat rise or any other problem if i have the exhaust fan on the same 12h timer? if so i need to change that but apart from that everything is good, i have the lights set up in tent #2 ready for veggin, watered my babies 30 mins before clones to make sure they had that extra punch :P, i also put the clones in about 2mm of water and misted them.
PICS:

Im online i just dont normally reply to threads such as this but anyways good job on what your doing and unless you got specific questions to ask then good luck and hope you have a bountiful harvest.

@your exhaust fan question.

Are you asking wether or not your fan to cool your lights will cause heat fluctuations during the "off" period? it wont as your lights arent on not creating heat. if you are asking wether or not you need your exhaust fan for your air intake for your plants on during the "off" period then the answers no, your plants dont "respirate" during there dark period, the air will be fine without an exhaust intake during the night.

Thanks :) and i meant the smell, its frowned on over here so i need to keep the smell hidden, exhaust on 24/7 or is 12/12 with the lights ok?

12/12 to save money and keep your heat in and not allowing it to fluctuate in the night to much.

Do you have a carbon filter? if thats the main issue here then you can run your exhaust 24/7 with the filter on it, if your room is enclosed then you can not run 24/7 and the smell shouldnt leak out.

you'll find it doesnt smell much during veg , especially with the lights off, it really kicks off when flowering starts and gets really heavy about halfway thru. then ur gonna need the fan on constant.

in flowering now, but not half way in so in about 4 weeks it'l need to be on 24/7?
yeah mate, it'll start stinkin really bad, mite even be before that, looks like your up in the loft so that should help keep it down, i just a grow 2 weeks ago and didnt have a filter on it all but coz it was in the loft there was no smell in the house, depends on what strain your growing, sum stink like fuck some dont.
