Howdy folks... Hope everyone is doing well!

I just set up my ventilation and for now the circuit is open, so it's airing out the room, but will become a closed circuit when I attach it to the vent in the floor, and cold air will come in through that vent (I enclosed a picture of the vent) Also set up the fan suspended in air with bungee cords, and the air getting pushed into the attic. Little bit of a celebration, one step closer to having a stable room!

Few questions for the seasoned vets:

a.) I already posted this, but this is a stupid question to have to ask. My lamp got set up without the glass in the hood, I am a moron, but the glass was in my girlfriends car at the time. I have tried unscrewing on the side to get it in, I can't create enough force to get the screws out. Unfortunately I only bought one veg light, so I can't simply put the glass in the other 1000 watt and then fire up the veg light, then put the glass in this one. What the hell am I to do? lol.


b.) Although the fan is suspended in air, it's still quite noisey to be honest! It can be heard outside of the room, and I am not sure how to makes things a little more quiet - I figured suspending the fan in air would help. I would assume it will become a little quieter once the circuit is closed, as you won't be able to hear as much of the suction. I can't imagine it will decrease the volume THAT much though. Perhaps a fair amount of noise is also being created from air coming in under the door. Anyone care to comment?

About to give the plants 400 ppm distilled water shortly. I know the pictures are a bit dark, I am a bit pressed for time right now but I will update soon. Amazed at how fast these ladies are shooting up, leave structure looks pretty tight - happy so far! Thanks for all the advice guys, you are great - I am trying to pass on what little I do know to the community, it's a great thing we have going on here! Cheers! :rasta: imp:



--KindMidas, thank you for reading the thread. Stay posted, I am going to be updating as frequently as possible. While I am very impressed with the advice given by a few members of this forum and will benefit from it greatly, I do hope some can learn from my simple mistakes and questions. And if you are trying to plan a 2000 watt grow, you can learn some without question! I am new to this as well so I will sometimes be posting in great detail - alot of folks here will be able to give you advice if you have taken a step in the wrong direction. My advice to you from my current position is to get the lamps set up, get your clones, and try to do things step by step (requires lots of money, and a fair amount of time) I of course have a luxury that most might not, and that's plenty of space, not sure what you are planning. --

Best of luck to all! :thumbsup:
