Yea it does, pretty cool for my first grow. I should have my box 85% tomorrow, and then its just a matter of setting it up and getting all the girls in there and do some fine tuning with temps and humidity, a little cold where its going so hope night temps will be ok..........I just mixed up a gallon of grow big and big bloom, 1/2 tsp each. Im letting it sit 24hrs with my water being oxygen charged with an air stone and pump in the milk container at room temp, then monday she will get a drink of that. Gave her a good drink of just PH'd water tonight. Been just misting her for humidity in the morning and at night............Wanted to start seeing how she reacted to a light tea with just water and mollases, got some unsulfered blackstrap organic............I want to start light and increase the dose of mollases come budding time, so what is a good amount to add per gallon at this stage?????? Im gonna do it wether everyone says to or not, just give me a dose amount...lol Also, I have FF open sesame too, this feeding schedule of FD's I'm using doesnt have open sesame, so where can I add it to the mix, I have it, might as well use it. I'll put some pics of her tomorrow night, Like I said, I gave her enough water so it started to flow out of the bottom of the party cup.....6 new seeds in the new hydrofarm seed germing dome with heat mat, lets see how they do. They are all AK's and lowryders, mixed them up though, so dont know what the hell is what....lol Shouldnt do these things when Im stoned
 
I always use about 1- 2 ml molasses : 1 Liter wasser/feed. Gradually increasing throughout the plants short life. That would be roughly 1 - 2 Tbsp per Gallon. I love the molasses, for some reason. I am loving this ER that's been curing for 4 weeks. I used molasses from about day 3 till the very end and I'm sure it did something for the flavor. It's a sweet inhale and after exhale it's an aftertaste as if your sucking on a thick sweet candy drop. Very good stuff. I's going to harden up the top layer of soil after feeding. It dries and "crystallizes" the top layer, so you have to always loosen that up before feeding or watering again.

The new box is the one you're building, right? You're going to go with flat white paint? After you get it all finished, try to get the paint as dry as you can before putting your plants inside. Use a heater on high or a halogen construction light or something that will dry the paint quick. Otherwise, you'll have a bitch of a time with humidity till it's all dry. I only have this small cab and some pretty good ventilation, but till the paint dried completely, I was fighting with RH and was very worried that my newly forming nugs were going to suffer.

And if you use caulking, make sure you check it after everything's dry, before you have all your wires and lights and everything else setup. It would suck if you have to take it all back out to fix up the caulking.
Mine was probably cheap stuff and it opened up in a few places. It didn't really bother me that much cuz I had my lights on 24/0 and I didn't have to worry about light leaks. It just looked un-stealthy because light was shining out through a few cracks where the caulking opened up.

Ok, Gotcha on the dry paint. I'll take a couple pics as The building continues for ya. Its 36x36x6ft high. Gonna start giving it 1 tablespoon of the mollasses next watering and from then on, and increase to 2tblsp's during budding. Tomorrow night Im giving it its shot of the 1/2 tsp grow big and 1/2 teaspoon of big bloom thats been bubbling since last night with the pump and airstone

Maybe I can get the paint to dry if I just turn on the 400hps
 
OK, just figured I'd put up a couple pics so we can all see what happens. I just watered her with the 1/2 tablespoon of big bloom, and 1/2 tablespoon grow big, which I've had oxygenating with the air stone and pump. Now I just prepared my tea of 1 tablespoon of mollases for the next watering. Here she is after getting a drink of nutes 10 minutes ago. The leafs are deep green why the camera did that touch of yellow I dont know but shes not yellow at all. The other pics are my box that needs a front door and some paint, just been so busy at work I've only been able to do it a 1/2 hr a night. This is what I got done last night, last night was the first night of construction, then it was off to the stores with the wife. And the other pic is my oxygenating tea with the mollases. So far I have $38 invested in the box itself. I also put the 250cfm fan as you can see in pic which will hook up to a dryer hose and down to my charcoal scrubber. Put some extra cross members in the ceiling for hangin light. I'm also putting 8 cfl's on the sides
