What strain would you pick?
Hey turtle, I'm a girl. I love turtles! So you used the dremel tool to drill out holes. What attachment did you use, a drill bit for cutting metal? I have used the dremel to cut zinc. Which fogger did you buy? Walmart or other. When I was fogging I let the machine run during the day and then off at night. The plants I used already had roots from soil starting. They loved the fog and the roots went in all directions. Cool. I ditched the fog. Didn't want to clean the thingy. Now I'm doing biobuckets. Nothing to clean, I am so lazy. Be safe turtle.

Hello Gen,
Turtles are cool (and so are girls! lol). They're very patient, but, when needed, they can move pretty fast! Great to see more female growers :)
As to the attachment:
--- For the holes (on the aluminum), I used a drill bit and the drill
--- For cutting the 'sides' of the aluminum bar, I used the thin-cutting disk (Dremel)
--- For making the holes (on the PVC), I used the "drywall" attachment (Dremel)
Please let me know if you want/need more help and/or information. I've got a couple of extra pics of the cool tube's construction.
I bought a NutraMist fogger (yeap Garden, you read right).
QUESTION Gen::: When you ran the fogger during the day, about how much "liquid" would 'puddle' on the bottom of the fog chamber? I realize that after hours of fog, the fog will start condensing and unifying as liquid... I want to know if it's a big quantity of liquid, or is it like a small amount. Any ideas G?
As to cleaning it, the NutraMist has Teflon coated heads, so maintenance should be a no-hassle... should.
Thanks for the words Gen,
Happy New Year Friends! And Merry xMas!

Yeah, turtles are cool. Did the nutramist cost you mucho dinero? Then you should have no problems with the fogger. I went cheapo, Walmart ultrasonic $30. It was quiet, which I liked alot. After running the fogger all day there was about 1/2 cup or less. Not alot. I had my setup in a rubbermaid, that was pretty deep. I punched a hole at the bottom of the container to drain off any liquid. The fogger used a 2 quart reservoir and I could probably run it for 3 or 4 days. I only used it for a week. For some reason the corner plants seemed to wilt faster than the others and didn't grow as fast. Needed to do more experiments.
Have you used your credit card to buy seeds? I sent cash to Amsterdam and had to send it registered mail. The guy at the counter got twitchy. I thought for sure the money was going to get stolen or I was going to get busted. Paranoia. The seed company did get the money and filled the order. I had the seeds sent to a PO box and they still haven't come. Been 13 days so far. I don't want to send another registered letter. Wondering if credit card would be less stressful.
Send those pictures! Thanks.

Well, the NutraMist 3 costs like $400. And the NutraMist 5 costs like $470. The NutraMist 10 costs $600.
I picked the NutraMist 5 because I thought that the $70 jump in price was worth the extra capacity/performance. The jump to the NutraMist 10 was simply not the best option.
Of interest is the following: In my planned grow, the NutraMist 3 would have provided too much fog. So why did I pick the 5? Because of the small ($70) price jump, and, because of future-expansion in mind. Right now (and for a while), all I'll get is my closet cabinet. No grow rooms. No greenhouses. No garages. But when I go growing in the future, (bigger house), I already got the high-output fog system.
I plan on "throttling" the fog output of the NutraMist 5 by turning it ON and OFF and the best possible intervals. That will have to wait for experimentation to see what those intervals' values are.

Thanks for the inputs. The NutraMist is, as you say, quiet. Dead quiet actually. No noise. I am very pleased with this product my friends. You can see that they've actually invested quite some time in engineering this thing. Good fittings. Solid construction. Oversized components. Weather-tight connectors. Good instructions (ok, I could use a better quality copy). Everything is there to make it work. If this where eBay? I'd give it 5 stars. I would do business again. A+++
I plan on posting pictures of the system, so everyone can see what the NutraMist is. One thing that I realized, is that NutraMist doesn't provide photos of the inside of their systems... not on their websites anyway. I don't know if this is on purpose, like trying to keep their 'trade-secrets'. Because of this, I will not post pictures of specifics. I'd love to, but I respect their position. If anybody has any doubts, I suggest you go ahead and buy the system. Like I said, very well engineered. Very happy customer over here. :)

Gen, my seed buying history is this, so far:
1st order, I used my credit card. They charged me, but it took a little over 2 months for delivery!
http://boards.cannabis.com/showthrea...=white+russian
My 2nd order, I sent cash. I did the order, received a confirmation eMail, and instructions for sending payment. I simply put the money inside a piece of paper, then inside the envelope, and sent it on its way. Order arrived within 2 weeks. (That was White Widow and Bubblelicious [?]).
My 3rd order, I also sent cash. Because of mis-understandings between me and the seller, his first two letters didn't arrive. Apparently (we think), too little postage. I recently received and eMail of his saying he would re-send (for a 3rd time) my order. To be quite honest, I don't remember what the heck I ordered.
I can recommend WeedFarmer.com (2nd order) and KidKind (or KindKid, I'm unsure), he was the 3rd order.
As to the pictures, I'll do it... I'll upload in a little while... right now, I'm trully blazed...
Best to all of you,

Hey gKnowm,
Yeah, I'll post pictures of the NutraMist setup. I realize this will be very valuable to other members... so not to worry, I'll post pictures, and, if asked, I'll post more specific ones.
My learning experience is your learning experience. ;)
As to CA, no man... sorry. I wish I was there because of the cannabis laws, but, on the other hand, man, I wouldn't ever leave the place where I'm from (inside the USA). It's just, gorgeous. But hey, are you from CA? If I'm ever over there, I'll snap you an eMail before I start my trip!
I'm going to give you a very nice table turtle for your home.... LOL!!!!
