6x PowerPlant on soil (1200W)

First of all I just wana say great looking plants man, they look like the result of alot of hard work and effort so I hope they as good as you hope.


Also you've kind of solved alot of headache for me too because I was planning for along time on sucking air out through the lights/top of the roof into the carbon filter.Very inefficient now I see your setup. Having the carbon sucked out directly into the growing environment to neutralise instead of having the environment sucked into the carbon filter makes much more sense.

Also I got a few questions regarding your equiptment. I recently bought that exact fan and its causing alot of problems for me. Its noisy as fuck basically, how do you tackle that problem? The ducting dosen't even look insulated, so the airflow must be noisy, also, isn't it dangerous to have it hanging at a 90 degree angle? And also if your taking the carbon through the lights and out of the room, how does the stale air in the room actually room get removed? Sorry for the noob questions.

The fan on the right side of the filter sucks the air in the cabinet thru the carbonfilter(after that it's odorless air), thru the cooltubes (for cooling) out the cabinet by a hole in the roof.

Having the fan under a 90 degree angel isn't an extra ware on your equipment.

You can always use isolated tubes for sucking the air thru. cause of the constant cooling of the lamps that's no fire risk at all. Those hoses are padded on the inside.

I'm basicly sucking fresh air into the cabinet by a computerfan on the rightside of the cabinet (not in a pic). Be carefull that the fresh air fan that you use to suck fresh air into the cabinet is a tad bit weaker than the fan on the carbonfilter. that's because you always want under-pressure in your cabinet so you can be assured no smell is going out in another place than your carbon filter.

So does this eliminate the air flow noise almost completely. If you slept 10 yards from your grow space would you hear a noticable huming? Just trying to get a more accurate idea of how noisy it is. From the space i'm judging that's a 100mm fan, right? Also why do you have the intake fan (pc fan) at the top of the room and not on the plants (plant stems), what benefit does it serve in the top part of the grow box? One last question, you said the air is taken in through the carbon filter, would that be in the left side, so there's a hole in both ends of the tube?

Yes you would hear a humming but you'd have to really listen fot that sound. If there's a wall inbetween you and the cabinette you wouldn't hear a thing, I'm sure.

The intake fan doesn't blow forward, it blows the air radialy. Than the cold air drops down to the bottom where it's heated and speaded by a keramic heating fan.

No there are holes in the side of the filter you're viewing in the pics, you don't notice them because there's a layer of filtration cloth over it. the sides are closed (except for the side where the fan is connected to)

nice grow BRITEWIRE i love your plants how old r they?
in other words how many days in flowering?

They're 40 days into flowering now and they had a 2 week veg.

Lookin good.. another week and I'll stop giving nutrients

Thanks for clearing that up. Those brackets supporting the filter, did you pick those up or were they just lying around? That looks more appealing to me than hanging the filter with hooks and chain. Nice plants by the way I can only hope for similar.

YOu should hope for more cause I'm sure I'm totaly missing my target.

Those brackets are for hanging your watergutter to the roof. They fit very well and they are surtanly heavy enough to hold a carbon filter with filter.

I found some new pistils on the buds, so it looks like the plants are gonna give it one more try on upping the stakes
