GDSstonerboy/ProGroWannabe Dual Grow Thread.
GDS should be along in another day or so with an update. As for me... I've installed the A/C unit. It is adequate, but barely. 5000 BTU just barely keeps up with 1200 watts of HPS when there's no other ventilation. I wanna keep a "sealed" room. That way when I add the CO2, things don't get complicated with ventilation timing.
Anyhow, GDS has the pics, and like I said, he'll be updating shortly. So stay tuned, we'll be right back after these messages--lol

was forced to add a window A/C unit. Couldn't afford a portable,
so I boxed in the back of the unit to separate the warm air exhaust
from the cooler air coming out the front. The unit is rated for
5000 BTU. I find it barely adequate for 32 sq. ft with 1200 watts
of HPS. Remember, my ballasts are attached to my bulbs. If my
ballasts were remote mounted, the A/C would have a slightly easier
time maintaining the 80 degrees I'm shooting for.
The bushy plants are the ones that appear earlier in this thread.
They aren't going to be part of the grow log other than to provide
some pics till my C99 and PPP get big enough to become interesting.
The little guys are the C99 seedlings. My PPP clones aren't doing
as well as I'd hoped. I goofed when I took the top off the bottles
too early causing them to transpire pretty hard. Some will pull
through, I'm not sure about all of them though. So, in an effort to
make up for my goof, I built a little bubble cloner and added more
clones to it. I'm now trying to get it dialed in. I'll give pics of
those in a later update.

GDSstonerboy/ProGroWannabe Dual Grow Thread.
Ok after several problems with Rapid Rooters i started all over with new seedlings. Atm I have 3 PPP in the drip system and 1 C99 with them. Tomorrow i will be adding 2 more C99 to the drip. I just purchased new T12 daylight bulbs because the others seemed to be getting a little dimmer which they were compared to the new ones. Some of my seedlings were stretching a bit reaching for light but now that the new bulbs are in im sure they'll start normal growth. Room temps are at 73f and the water temps are at 75f.
As for the soil C99 and Papaya they are now under 5 26 watt 6500k cfls and one 26 watt 3000k cfl. They are looking real good right now although they are very short for a month. I'm beginning to wonder if im doing something wrong because i dont think soil should take this long to grow. After a months time the Papaya is only 5 inches and the C99 is just a little over 4. I'm thinking of raising the light though to increase stretching. If anyone has any suggestions on the problems i might be facing it'll be greatly appreciated.

Popabean, that's actually GDS's PPP. And no, it's not really common for that strain as far as I know. Just the way it came into the world I guess.
Thanks for dropping by!

Excellent looking plants GDS, that papaya looks so healthy!
You mentioned having slow growth w/ the soil c99 and papaya....
What size pots are they in? What kind of soil are you using?
4-5 inches in a month isn't right, you should have at least a foot, are your plants root bound?
