Today there was a huge leak in my garage right next to my sauna...it got water on my ballast and the circuit break i use to connect some things. It was still running when I noticed the leak and didnt seem to be affected, but just in case I turned everything off besides the fans (I added another fan from my drying room in) which are hooked up to a higher/dry plug. Put the ballast and circuit breaker inside the sauna and hoping the fans will dry it quickly.
Ill update...
So I woke up to go into my garage and check on my girls today and I heard a loud sound of pouring water. I looked right next to my sauna and there was a huge leak coming from my garage ceiling right next to my ballast and circuit breaker. They both got pretty wet, but they didnt stop running at any point. Just to be safe I turned off the breaker and ballast, and took my fan from my drying room into the sauna and focused it directly on the breaker and ballast. Let that run for about an hour and they were totally dry, I started running it again and there hasnt been a problem. Disaster averted. :)
I also bought some garden yarn to tie down my girls, I took out all of the fishing line and replaced it with the yarn. Theyre much happier now Im sure! Thanks for that advice canniwhatsis!!! :thumbsup:
It's been a crazy day...I almost pooped my pants when I saw my ballast with water all over it. :wtf: haha
Heres pics of some of the mess...first one is my ballast getting dried by my fan, and the other is the circuit breaker doing the same.
Oh ya, and because of the leak and all they lost about an hour of light today. Is that going to be a big deal? Any possible setbacks? :(
Here's some pics of my girls today after i replace the fishing line with yarn. Theyre really starting to grow up towards the light really well, looking awesome! :jointsmile:

Notice the size of her stalk, very much larger the my others. Because of the thickness of her branchs I wasnt able to lst this as much. Didnt want to stress her out.
Oh, where in Cali you at abouts? Im in sac:jointsmile:
Enjoy brodder......:thumbsup:
Just wanted to comment on your leaf curl because I had/have the exact same thing. My temps were perfect but my 1k was too close and the light was just to much for them, problem for me was I couldn't raise my lights(at roof)...so i lowered my plants instead...it helped for the most part, but I had the curl for so long some didn't go back. I got it late in flowering but if you had to have it, veg would probably be the best time I imagine.
Did it go away for you when you raised the lights?or are the leafs that were curled still curled? how is the new growth? regular or curled?
I enjoy following a LST grow.
Most of the leaves that were curled have gone back to normal, probably about three or four that are still a bit curled, but nothing severe. It's better than it used to be, and I moved my light farther away a couple days ago.Quote:
