New Grower Hypathetical Gardener - The Perpetual cmh/led log

[Hypathetical Gardener]

I’m gunna add a tower fan like you got and still have to hook up my ventilation fan and filter. Gunna add a window ac and go from there it’s about to start getting hot!!!

Tbh, i only got the towers Because they were on sale. They're hella inefficient as i learned last run, and give wind burn to the closest plants if they arent all the way turned down to speed 1. I plan on getting 3-4 clip fans to replace the towers so i can have more control over blowing over/under my canopy without blowing ON it causing wind burn and such. Upgrades coming with time. Id like to upgrade the tent to a 3x3 or 4x4. I need room for 6ish plants while only running 1-315w cmh light. Its my understanding it covers beat with a 3x3 in flower and 4x4 in veg.

Guess we will find out in a few months. Im really interested to see what pops from these. The ak is supposed to be a 9 to 10 week strain. My wicked widow was too. I harvested one at 9 and one at 10 weeks (though i maybe should have let the 10 week go another week)
The widow had a scent like fruity flowers... Like if strawberries were next to a flowershop. I just hope i dont get anything TOO "skunky". Neighbors out here are less appreciative.

Subbed! Curious to see how your og kush is vs my 1:1 CBD OG i have just recently put into flower, Excited for purple haze and AK47 for sure aswell! Ive heard ak is real skinky![emoji847][emoji106][emoji106]

Theyre better than nothing... I did have success with them, just coulda been better with the clips. I looked at gg but passed it up. I used a series of free seed deals to get like 22 seeds for $9ish each AFTER shipping. Ive got a nice list of strains put together. And enough seeds for 2 to 3 more runs.

Well, it was 82 thismorning in the tent. But moving some dirt around revealed that all 3 seeds have germed. Im calling their official start date 6/9. Im torn between practising plant language and letting the plant tell me its done, and just taking it at the day count given by the breeder.

Im glad all 3 of your girls are above soil! I noticed you were trying to lower your temps a bit. You can remove that cotton sleeve covering your air filter and wash it by hand, then let it dry in the sun. Looks a little bit dirty and that will help increase airflow a good bit. If you are seriously considering a 6" fan then that would also drop the temps a couple degrees. I have a 440CFM 6" with a built in speed control so you do not have to have it at maximum speed. But my temps are much higher than yours currently and so far so good.

If none of that works use duct tape and some ducting and connect you house ac vent directly to one of the bottom inputs of your tent. Just tape the Ducting to the vent cover and make it as airtight as you can. Then use the other end for your tent intake.

Looking forward to your harvest. 3 classic strains!

Thank you. The girls arent quite above soil yet. Maybe tonight or tomorrow. The sleeve is already off (ill be replacing the filter after this run as it was a cheap ipower and its my understanding theyre good for about 6 months ish. I definately plan to upgrade to a slightly bigger tent and a 6 inch exhaust system next run if i have the $$ for it at the time. Ill probably keep the 4 in fan as an emergency fan or maybe extra flow...
Ill definately consider the direct ac connection approach if necessary. I just have to be careful... That rooms duct is the first and most powerful off of the unit. That said id be concerned about my tent maintaining its airflow and my whole house smelling like a whole can-a-bliss.


I love the classics. Its why a white widow/ruderalis cross was my first run. Admittedly the purple haze is in honor of my hippie parents.

Good morning yall. I awoke to ak47 and og kush poking thier heads up. [emoji119][emoji119]. Purple haze is laggin behind (no surprise)

And for some other interesting news...
I have BOTH wicked widow plants throwing new white hairs. Not like 1 or 2 either. Its like they forgot they already did this... Pics of course.

Also, my clover is flowering. It never did that under the leds. I think im going to have a lot better results from this light.

As far as temps go, my gf came in the room and kicked on the overhead fan. Tent temps have been in the mid to high 70s ever since. She sees all that i miss. Now if i could get her interested in growing id never have a deficency.

I can never find a definative answer for this... How high do i set my light? Its set at 28" above soil. So its 18" to 20" above my 2 tallest flowers. So far just some heat stress (tacoing slightly) a lil bit on ww2 but shes been a bit of a bitch the whole grow. And it has been hotter than usual until yesterday, so it should be expected i suppose.

committing 1 crime to avoid commiting multiple crimes... is it ethical? is it moral?
