My Grow Box Setup! ~Pics~

PLease don't let this thread die. This is my most serious grow yet and I need all the Comments, Criticism, Feedback, and Motivation I can get. :(

-C.S.

Hang in there, man. Just keep posting. You gotta give people time to respond. Sometimes I leave my thread for a few days and it moves completely down the list and no one posts, but the 'view' count always goes up. There are always people watching/looking. :D

Your grow looks nice. I like the way you set up your exhaust vent and fan across the bulbs. Did you say what the temps were in there? Oh nevermind, now I remember seeing that thermometer (familiar one, lol) and with CFLs, it's pretty easy to keep them low. Do you keep the box closed most of the time?

Glad you repotted, I think that was part of the problem back on Nov 11. They were not in big enough pots. They have really started to grow since then, eh? Nice light blockers/reflectors on the tops. I'm really gonna have to look into that. Rockwool is very susceptible to mold. :(

Egorette looks nice. Definitely the strongest. hope she's a she. :o The others look decent, but not as beastly. They look like they are possibly a little over-watered. Do you have a soil moister meter? Make sure you let them dry out well before watering again.

Other than that, good grow, man. Very nice sofar. No worries, I'm not an expert or anything, just read a lot, but I will try to keep up with ya. We can all learn together....awww. lol

G'luck. Be cool.

Ooooh, post #801...

Are they big enough to use SuperThrive you think?

Excellent grow buddy.. top notch.. hope you yeild well.. but remember the bigger the pots the bigger the plants .. get some big ass pots and just leave them init i only transplant once.. when the seedling is about ten leaves.. put it into its finall home.. means no messing about.. let the babies do their stufff. athena and egorette. look really nice... if you have plans there coud you post me a copy.. im looking to build a hydrosetup. in a stealthy box just like yours...also.. any yellowing thatuickly dries out.. is heat stress .. be very careul.. they grow so quick


peace

plants look healthy.....that's a buttload of CFL's

Now i have PROPER ventilation lol, I got a fan sucking in cooler air. This should increase humidty a little bit and let the plants breathe better. Also, it will lower the temperature and help reduce the light burn they're suffering from. I have a question though. How can I raise thew Humidity even further to reach a good 71%? I heard that 70%ish is perfect for veg right?

Heres some pics though:

1. A close up of the fan.
2. A view form further back.

Just an update on the little plants of mine:

1. Something is going terribly wrong with Egorette. Her leaves are getting all retarded, yellow, and dried out. WHATS GOING ON!? The same is happenign to Rhonda but she looks even worse. This sucks...

2.Rhonda

3.Athena- Looking even more beautiful then normal!

4.Stubs- I seriously can't believe how fast this bitch is growing. Its truly insane lol. Just wait till I buy my HPS tomorrow (maybe) lol :)

Hey just letting you all know I used some SuperThrive on them today and hopefully it'll help get them bigeer. I raised the lights up about 8 inches higher then they were as well. I need to start getting a little more height on them so I feel like they're bigger than they are lol. I got only $80 on my check today too so i guess ill have to buy the parts to my HPS and rig it up myself. Shitty :( If anyone has guides on how to do this, it'd be tight as hell if you showed me them, lol.

I just put a humidifier in there that i borrowed from my friend. Will this help you think? it doesnt look like it will because all the mist just gets sucked up through my ventialtiona anyways. ITS BUGGIN ME GUYS! Post on my thread :( no one does anymore :(

Just wanted to post some pics of the humidifer and the raising of the lights for some stretching growth. The plants are too small and I wanna get them a little bit taller. :thumbsup: :dance:

1. The box when its sealed up.

2 The box when its open (notice the height now)

3.The misty goodness bellowing forth from the humidifier!

4. The Humidity has raised a good 10% already! woot
