no probs mate. i don't know much about B'cuzz stuff tbh, looks good though. i fucked up last time by top feeding my peat based soil from the top when i felt like it, now i use smaller pots and i water from the bottom (in a bowl but for pots) 3 times a day every other day, i top up the bowl until they stop drinking, works out about 600 ml for each plant... so every plant gets 200 ml 3 times a day every other day if you get me :leaf:

the main airconditioning system in the house,is there a vent to that in your grow room....meaning when your furnace kicks on to heat the house are you blowing hot air in the grow room...or the same if ,not likely cause its getting cold, but if your A/C kicks on are you blowing cold air in the grow room............i only ask cause i used to have a closet with a A/C vent in it.

Dont say that i bet u was gutted... how can u tell if they have mold??? can u see it?? it grows from inside?
yea was gutted at the time, my mistake really so live n learn lol. when you see it you know its wrong. starts of under the colas so you cant see it from the top, fungi around the bud nodes is easy to spot, white fluffy shit

your plants are looking really good tho chief hope you get this humidity thing sorted mate :leaf:

alright chief, all looks well mate. is that the exhaust fan sitting on the floor with the silver ducting pulling air from the top? if it is they work a shit load better pushing air rather than pulling it. i would mount it up the top about light hight and keep the ducting as straight, horizontal and short as possible. thats all i can think of really tbh

going to have look at your journal now :leaf:

thats my point chief ducting wont exhaust!!! you need the 6" extractor fan up top, not on the floor...it's sucking air down and out. they work better blowing air, not pulling air :leaf:

yes chief. the thing is, if u have 3m of ducting before your extractor it wont do much. get the thing up at the top and loose 2m of ducting. happy days :leaf:
