[michaelyeo91]

Hi guys
@budelee @Dudeski @Slater @The Elvis @Rebel @IndicaIVoz

right i have them in there new home now so lets get started

4 different strain:
Himalayan orange diesel (short stuff seeds)
Cheizel (big budda seeds)
Gorilla glue (fast bud)
Bubba Kush (dianfem)

Here is my setup:
90 x90 x 1.7 m tent
1 x 600 watt dimmable ballast
1 x 600 watt HPS grow light
1 x 400 watt MH grow light
4 x 10 litre air pots
6 inch extractor fan with carbon filter
1 x small oscillating fan
1x cool tube

plant medium and nutes:
plant magic supreme soil
plant magic old timer grow
plant magic old timer bloom
plant magic PK booster

light schedule
mh will be on 24/0
hps 20/4

pic of set up

these where taken last night so will keep posting weekly updated

temps around 23 c and humidity is roughly 50%

any advice is always helpful

thanks
M.Y

looks good to me man the only 2 things i might consider changing/fixing would be just that your hygrometer is sitting on the light ,if you say put it somewhere else you could get your two readings in /out instead of just the "out" reading also this might effect your RH readings also. just a thought.
The other thing was just that your intake is on the floor next to that fiberglass(?) or insulation stuff dirt and dust ,i would either move it or place some kind of bug blocker over it. hope these tips help dude .oh with the hygrometer a suggestion might be to actually slicon it to the tent wall as sometimes they can be a massive pain to place inside a tent as the heat peels tape and things think that .

@IndicaIVoz yes bud i agree the hygrometer has been moved and it around the pots so we can get a good reading from there also
rh is not 50% more like 60 to 70% now bud (had check the reading after changing a few things in the set up)

it's insulation
i brought a bug blocker for 6 inch ducting and does not fit lol
so planning on nicking my sister's tights to make a bug blocker lol
also this ducting only runs to the light as it has a cool tube and back out otherside so there should be no bug's in tent i think?

i use cable ties to secure the temp gauges normally there are two in there one close to the light (just under light where plants will grow)
and one near the bottom of pot like the pic shows it sitting on soil

some very vaild points tho
thanks

Yup sounds like your well onto it bro also that HPS will help for heating in these coming winter months also ,added bonus hehehe

Oh and yeah the light extraction is exiting so no problems there either ,just make sure the tights are nice and airy( perhaps like small fishnet?) ya don't wanna block out any of that fresh CO2 coming in

@IndicaIVoz
yes agree with that get a bit frosty in the winter here so will be well needed in a loft

where do u live?
do you have a dark period or do you run 24/0?

I have been using landscape fabric or weed blocker to filter my intakes. It is cheap but don't get the real cheap stuff it is just perforated plastic. the fabric will keep bugs, cat hair, all kinds of stuff from getting in. It is like a filter so I like to change it every few months. if you want more surface area form it into a cone. you can get a roll for less than $10 and tape it onto a piece of tube of any size you want.

yer that a nice way of doing it @Pitched tent

but like i said i am using them as intakes to the light only
so i figured i shouldn't need a bug blocker as they still can't get into the grow space

thanks
