Wow, most people never get access to those. If you still had it you would be the RIU king of carbon renewal. Its awesome that you used to blow glass. I have seen those guys at the Renaissance Fair that happens in Bristol every year, i have mad respect for their skills.

back then it was a really tight knit circle of blowers and shops. So if you got bad mouthed by another shop or blower. You were done. I had a friend that hooked me up with another blower before i had learned from the headeez crew. I sold glass of another blower. My friend was so pissed that i made more sales than him with their glass and my glass. and he pulled some shady shit behind my back and got me cut out pretty much. So i sold all my equipment after a year of trying to get back in the door.. this was in 2000 - 2002... I paid 3500 for the kiln and sold it for $800. Its a completely different industry now than it was back then..
 
Totally off topic but gator are you talking about the renaissance faire in kenosha, wi? I know they are all over but that is the only one i know of that goes by bristol. Just curious

i havent even attempted it since then. Never bought new equipment. I'm sure after a couple months of working at it. I would be good again.

Yup that be the one. I used to go every year with my grandfather before he passed a while back. Went with my brother last year but it sucked cus it rained and he was half in the bag so it was like baby sitting lol. Small world huh, those mushrooms they sell are prob my favorite thing about that place.

Lol i love everything there! Last year was rainy, we got rained out the last hour of our visit, wasnt fun. The morning was still nice though
 
The stupid pricey unscealed cooled reflector and ducting fits/elbow filter connection is the next big thing to watch after the Filter. the smoke test is always good to make sure the reflector does'nt suck unfiltred air.. Alotttt of them are clearly not made for scealed setup. i remember my first Silverstars who was 50% ductaped .

Melonhead is the shit!!!!
 
Has anyone had any experience with a Uvonair 1000....just don't know how long I should leave it on and if I should place it directly in my grow tent. Thank you in advance:bigjoint:
 
Yeah, IIRC, this sort of in-line unit is supposed to be inserted
into your air-flow after the tent but before exhausting.

Good luck,

Ozone is bad for you and your plants.
Click to expand...

young/small plants especially are vulnerable to ozone
i guess the younger more delicate leaves can suffer very quickly from ozone damage
even from small generators 200/300 mg/h
i have seen smaller plants lose most of their leaves in less than a week after just a few hours exposure to ozone
ironically the smell of ozone fried plants is one to never forget

i avoid using ozone until the plants are larger/mature 3rd/4th week of flower which is when the odour is more of an issue anyway
i do still see a slight bit of damage to some leaves but this is minimal
more damage is likely to occur from a incorrectly positioned floor fan flapping leaves around causing wind damage

peace

@skunkd0c it's best to use ozone as an inline treatment in conjunction with negative pressure. Exhaust outdoors. :)

i have found that ozone is not necessary in the ducting for my situation
i vent from room to room i am able to smell the output directly it is odorless
if the carbon filter is not removing all the smell at the output of the extractor system i would suggest improving the carbon filter itself rather than using ozone
with enough negative pressure from very powerful fans and a practically sealed room i would not use the ozone, this level of extraction is not practical for my situation

i find ozone works best to keep the little leaks within the house i have at a more manageable level
also it can be used for smaller grows without any filter to keep the smell at a manageable level
when i enter the grow room opening the door of the room is enough to fill the house with smell when growing extra smelly strains
using ozone in the upper level of my house keeps the lower level smell free
 
I think that using these generators inside ducting that directs the
outflow out of the building is the proper method for using these with
an indoor grow.

Good luck,

JD
