i transplanted all my plants into 5 gallon buckets with an organic soil n' perlite mix. i also changed my 250w hps to a 400w hps. my plants r lovin it but its a little to warm for my liking in that room. i wanna get the temps down somehow. anyway....check it out...leave me some comments, tips, ideas...its all good.
up the intake fan and dont have so many bends in your ducting everytime you bend it you lose capacity:thumbsup:
i know i can deff use a stronger intake fan. b4 my next grow in september ill upgrade. ill intall it over summer. all i got now is a little 4 inch duct fan bringin in fresh air. as far as the bends go i have no other choice but to keep it the way it is.
Damn Junkboxer that shit is shaping up to look really nice. What are your temps like. You said you have a four in fan for intake. Is that what your using for the light? Sorry I'm just confused. Other than that the shits looking tight. Dude props on the five gallon pots. Bigger roots, bigger plants, and yes less watering. Did you pop some nice drainage holes in the bottom. What you doing for smell? Scrog, lst?
I'm corrently in my first grow w/ a 400, upgraded from a 250 and the growth is tight even for like 12 plants. Did very little veg so plants are pretty small. Good Luck, that shit atta grow fast, are you thinking about using some good nutes or what.
yoyo mulletman thnx for the comments. yea my intake hooks directly up to my light hood so the fresh air is dropped right onto my plants. also the outgoing air is connected to the hood as well to take away some heat and smell. im not doing anything yet about smell but in a few weeks ill take the outgoing duct off the hood and hook it up to a carbon scrubber. with the fan on the temps under the light r just warm. i can easily let my hand rest under the bulb without feeling a burn. also ye i drilled a lot of holes into the bottom of the buckets. i see you did the same as i did, upgrade your 250 to a 400...my plants love it. as far as nutes go, yes i am planning on using them. i just dont have them yet lol, im so mad. i ordered fox farms whole line of nutrients and im going to follow their feeding scedule chart. i ordered from BGHYDRO.com 2 weeks ago and they just shipped it a few days ago. it should be here soon. im sure my plants will love it. anyway let me know if u got any more questions or comments. peace n pot bro lol
