Is the height of my light ok ?

^ agreed..keep them in your controlled environment,cos thats the name of the game controlling your environment/mimic the outdoors-INDOORS!? to maximise your gain....insects and shit brought in from the outside for one, are gonna fuck you big time, so this is not advisable.

That might be 2 late

she has been outside every day for 12hrs of daylight for about 3 weeks now

she has never been in the cab until now

so if their are any bugs on her then i guess its to late

i just have to make sure i clean the cab real good before i do another grow

Although i have sprayed her a few times with neem

so maybe it will be ok , ( idk )

I raised my light last night as high as i could

the temp is still high 87 degrees

do you think it will be alright until i get my new fan

i ordered this fan to replace the top left exhaust fan i have

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003X343UE

the top left exhaust fan is 55 cfm to where the one on the right is 90 cfm

the one on the right is the same fan that i just ordered

so i will have 2 exhaust fans with 90 cfm instead of one just 55 and one 90

hopefully it will help

the intake is only 55 cfm also

Sorry if you already posted this information...

Where are your intake and exhaust at in your cab?

My intake is the single fan you see in the center

My 2 exhaust are in the top corners

its been about 6" from my wall

so i went ahead and catty cornered it so their would be a bigger opening in the back and it did help

it dropped the temp down to 81 degrees by doing that

Also

when my light cuts off the fans cut off also

should i keep the exhaust fans on while the lights are off ( on all the time )

or maybe just 1 of the exhaust ?

or is it best that its all off ?

i took my plant out so you can see the fans better

Ritalin lol

naw my man

im prescribed xzanax and adderall and ( seraquill to sleep at night )

Oh my goodness, that scares the bejesus out of me hearing people say so casually they're prescribed cocktails like this of pharmaceuticals.

Is this the norm in the US or what? WTF is happening to people that they can possibly justify poisoning their bodies with these dangerous synthetic drugs?

I just dont get it man.. seems sooooo unnecessary all doctors want to do these days is diagnose these "illnesses" and then get their patients taking all of these drugs.

@ 420Tyme dude if your having trouble sleeping learn to grow some green for god sake and stop taking these awful pills.

OK rant over sorry i just have very strong feelings about this topic and i fucking hate pharmaceuticals.

peace out

its all good my man

everyone has a right to their own opinions

the xzanax is for my anxiety for when im feeling to anxious

the adderall is for my a.d.d cuz my mind goes every where and its hard for me to just considerate on just one thing without trying to do everything else also

and the seraquill ( <- spelled wrong ) is to help me sleep

their are times that im up all night then all day then all night before my body finally just gets to exhausted then i can sleep

Honestly i dont like being on them , and i do not always take it

Now

could you give me your opinion on my question about any of the exhaust fans being on in my last post ?

 

[soilmaster]

Hey man.
I notice you're a noob like me.
I can't give you much advice but I reckon you should get a better light. If it's for personal then maybe a 250w HID?
Should be able to pick up a setup for like 150 bucks.

 

[Hippie420]

Honestly put a 6inch clip on fan from walmart in there blowing between canopy and light i bet you'll get down to the 75-78 range just my thoughts and cheap too 10 bux and will make a world of difference lower temps and stronger stemage
Maybe also a DIY Cooltube to combine with fan blowing between lamp and canopy and you could drop that light right on top of em and get some real nugs going
Take Care
-Hippie-

 

[HushemFlupskluk]

Yeah yeah let it grow.

How to do that when they are cut and attached to the pot?

 

[Neo 420]

Leave your fans on all times. Push the humidity out of there at nite. We need to get the temps down a lil bit more. Lets see what happens when you get your fan..

 

[sso]

if you get really anxious and impatient, you should stop what you are doing and go do something else (something that relaxes you)

if its really bad, you can focus on your breathing, calm yourself down with deliberatly taking slow semi to deep breaths.

might want to check up on meditation or yoga.

the grow looks fine, dont worry about it. just keep it simple and try getting it into a routine that has you doing the least (they grow better that way) its usually overfuzzing that kills plants.

keep on studying and reading all you can too.

I do not understand what you are trying to say

i got the branches tied down some , ( lst )

it is not hurting her

Should it be just the exhaust fans

or the exhaust and intake ?

Just leave the 6" fan open in my cab blowing towards the light

or like do i need to cut out another intake to put it in ?

 

[Hippie420]

The 6 inch clip of fan is just for letting air in the cab blow between the light reflector and the canopy not at the light but under it and above the top of the plants
If you decide to go Cooltube you will need an exhaust fan for it
like a 4'' inline fan or 4'' duct fan would do the job...

but honestly that $10 fan from walmart blowing between the light and top of the plant should bring your temps to ideal if your experiencing temps of 80f-85f also make sure your intake is big enough if it just passive intake

Also remember the old guy trick put you hand under the light at the height of the plants if it hurts your hand it hurts your plants...

True that......

My new ac fan came in today , Yippie

i went ahead and took the 55 cfm intake fan out and put the new one in ( 90 cfm )

i still have more air being exhausted then what is being brought it

like i said in an earlier post , i have 2 exhaust fans ,

one is 90 cfm just like the new intake and the other is 55

so that's 145 cfm being exhausted

the temp has dropped down to 82 degrees and that is after i LOWERED my light

to where it was 87 degrees with the light all the way up before

so the new fan is definitely helping , especially since i was able to lower my light

Now i have a question

Do you think if i used the new 90 cfm fan as the exhaust with the other 90 cfm fan

and used the 55 cfm for intake do you think it would drop the temps more ?

That would be 180 cfm being exhausted and just 55 cfm coming in

you think that would be better ?

or should i just leave it as it is now with the 145 being exhausted and the 90 cfm coming in ?

Hey my man

im going to wal mart in a little bit to see if they have any of those 6" clip on fans

you said to have it between the light reflector and the canopy under the light but above my plant

im not quite sure how im gonna do that but im gonna give it a try

i took these pics so you can see what space im working with

their is no room in the back , theirs about 2 to 3 " from the light and the back wall

the only option would be on the left side , but im still not sure how to do this

will you please look at the pics and tell me what you think

and im not the sharpest tool in the shed lol

so a diy cool tube is out the question for me , i will have no idea what i will be doing ( sorry my man )

here are the pics , sorry that their a little blurry but you can still see what room im working with

Thats good. That how I used to run my system when I wasn't sealed.

I believe other members and mods have already busted your chops about asking simple questions which are covered 1000x in these forums.
So you can't be bothered with reading because of your "condition"? I guess we need to tell you how to grow telepathically since reading fucks with your mind.

I love train wrecks.

I have been reading , everybody's set is is different and i cant find something similar to mine to go by

im doing what i can to try and make this work

at least im not making multiple threads asking these questions

you dont have to be a smart ass to me for asking someone a question that made a suggestion to me

if you dont want to help then dont post here go help someone else

im sorry for wasting your time when all im trying to do is get this right

HIPPIE ,

i got the 6" fan in their like you suggested

but im not able to have it blowing above the plant but below the light like what you said

i was only able to clip it on the side , and its blowing on the plant

im just waiting now to see what the temp is going to do

i had the fan on the other side but my leaves were getting caught in it

i also had to flex the end of the reflector out some so more light would reach the left cola

here are some pics , sorry their not the best quality

and i hope im not bothering you with asking these questions
