hi every1 my first posting of my first grow room.
i am atemtpting to grow 10 lovely papays.
in 1 of my pictures you will notice a big green thing thats a parathin heater that lets off lovely cabondioxide that the plants love.
i am leaveing them under the 2 strip lights for 4 weeks.
then im putting in a 600w hydrophonice lamp. (any think i should put 2 600 watts in?) any advice of any1 is very mutch welcome :)
peace out 1 love....
Nice setup...
As to the lights, get as much lights as your $budget will allow... :)
cheers for the advise bud
Maybe this is a dumb question, but what exactly is a parathin heater? Are they a good method for producing co2?
a parathin heater runs on fuel (parathin)
witch releases carbondioxide.
and whot do plans do? turn carbondioxide in to fresh air.
wouldnt say there the safest of metheds of heating a grow area but my little plants seem to like it.
good thing is cost effective.im growing in a garden shed and the temps out side been below zero so its alot cheaper than having a eleteric heater blasting all day.
peace out 1 love...
the shed im growing in was completly clapped out i fixed the roof nearly every pannel on the dam thing i then gave is 2 thick layers of pond lino then painstakingly stapeled 5 rolls of cooking tin foil to the wall for reflection.
i am currantly working on a heat proof sheet with a zippa down the middle that you have to undo after opening the door just for that bit of extra warmth
peace out 1love...

Just in case you didn't know, aluminum foil is bad (creates a laser beam effect). If anything just paint the walls flat white. Also, the light is a little far from the plants. Because of how it is such a low wattage they are stretching like crazy for it. I've seen many grows get completed with floros just not as few as you have. Sorry to ruin things, but you're gonna need to invest a little more if you truely do want to grow. Goodluck buddy and I hope thigns work out for you <3
yeah those plants are super stretched. you should repot and bury stem under the soil. oncw you do that move the flouros about 2inches away from the plants. if they strech much more they will not be able to support themselves and fall over. so whatever you do do it soon!
