Multi Strain Grow

I was looking at this one just cause my room is not huge and my budget is tight htg is like right around the corner from me not really but close.

So I am haviing trouble with temps. During the day when the lights are off it's 60degrees give or take some thats just right when the light turns on I check. During the night when the lights are on the temps are barley warm enough. It's like 74-75. I tried turning down the fan that is cooling my light, the glass just got hot and didn't warm the room any.

I was thinking about adding a 400 watt hps hung vertical to try and heat the room up a little when the lights are on.

Thing I am having trouble now with is when the lights are off the temps are 60! to cold, I thought about adding a space heater but would need somthing with presets where you can select the temp you want the room to stay.

Any imput or ideas?

Any insight? tried the veritcal 400 hps and temps were 95.5

Try using the reflector without the glass and your fan on low or not connected to your reflector. You could also try a little space heater you can find them cheap and then just figure out the right settings http://www.heater-home.com/product/FH-209.aspx or if you already have one you could get a Heating and Cooling Programmable Outlet Thermostat http://www.amazon.com/WIN100-Heating-Cooling-Programmable-Thermostat/dp/B000E7NYY8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1255946229&sr=8-1 You can use this in the summer to on your fan to cut down energy costs. And I use this ozone generator http://www.plantlightinghydroponics.com/cap-ozn1-ozone-generator-up-to-5500-sq-ft-p-632.html and it works great for me I just stick it in my exhaust ducting but this one works the best if you exhaust somewhere like your attic and place it up there in the dead space because the air is not moving by it so fast. Remember not to have it in a living space because ozone can hurt you but it works great if properly set up.

Update day 15 of flowering

Everything is going good, I just lollied them for the second time and final time.

I am having one slight problem, some of my plants are showing yellowing a little especially the widow. You'll see in the pics, what do you think it is? I feed micro, grow, bloom at light feeding. Do you think I should go to medium feeding? Big bud is getting fed this week (following AN feeding chart). The ph is 6.3-6.5. I didn't check the run off should I? Also my soil has been draining really fast any thoughts on this?

Enough talk here is some pics, buds are coming along very nice

First shot is to show name of plants then a over head shot of the plant.

Thanks

That dam blue venom look rockin!i would kick it up a notch when i used AN i used moderatly heavy feeding and they did fine. and u should definatly check your run off it could make a world of a difference!

Thanks I wonder where wemp is?

Any new people wanna join in?

Update coming in like 30 mins, sick with flu can't really do shit.

Alright guys sorry it's been so long been hella sick. I didn't drag them out because I still feel like shit but I got what I could. I added another easy cool 6 with a 400 watt bulb(hps). The three bud shots are afghan kush, white berry, and blue venom. The one that is hella crystally already is blue venom as you can see in the pic their all doing wonderful. Remember how small the little ones were? Well they fucking blew up and are about the same size as everyone else.

WEEK 4 FLOWERING.

I will get alot better pictures once I am not sick anymore.

bump 4 today

ehhhhhhhhh?

First day of Week 5

Plants are doing well and stacking bud fast, this stuff reaks bad. Probably end up growing these till 9-10 weeks of flowering depends on the trichs but I think thats how long it will be. The pre mature ones will be even longer. Well thats about it because I am not having any problems so here's some pics.

First pic shows name of plants, pictures after that are other shots of that plant. Until another plant name shows.

Last picture are my guard dogs, brother and sister part chow part german shepard. Both are 1 year 3 months and weigh 85 lbs. Wanna come into my house? lol

Smoke on

Oh yeah forgot to mention the picture with my dogs they chewed that couch to shit when they we're pups. Assholes lol.

And I put up 2mm mylar.

Almost 1,000 views and only a hand full of people post, whats that about?

Well I usually only post when I have a question, can answer a question, or see something that I can help with or needs improvement. And since you grow is going so well and your not really asking to many questions I have just been sitting back and enjoying the show. Also I think if want more people to watch your grow you should have your journal link in your signature and maybe post in threads with similar grows/strains. Anyways Im excited to see how things turn out because I have a couple of the same strains as you that I haven't started yet and am interested in what you think of them once they finish up..

I think some people are chewing on their words...... shootin on the high side 120 gram harvest......? how many watts you pumping?

Well I have 1000watts of hps, one is a 600 watt hps in a easy cool 6 and one is a 400 hps in a easy cool 6. I was hoping for like a half pound off my 9 plants. Which would be really nice. This is all in a 4x4 closet with a slant roof which is max 5 1/2 foot. Tallest plants are around 20-26 inches right now smallest one being 12inches.

Also if I want a half pound I roughly need 24grams per plant. Which I think won't be to bad.

the 600w HPS will be perfectly sufficient for those plants..... had you vegged about a week long you would have hit your goal of a half pound...... that is the only set back...... the 400W is a complete waste for an add on in an area that size.... in that set up I would FIM three nodes up, LST to the sides of the pots, let a full canopy just barely start to go up, and flip to 12/12 (they would be just over 1 ft tall going into 12/12) they would finish at a little over 2 1/2 ft, and you would have to lollipop the tops to take full advantage of light density on PAR with photosynthesis
