it wasnt mine it was his, but I guess it was in front of an electric heater in the winter time and unnoticed until it was to late lol but it works just fine, I have it set to energy eff. and it only kicks on for a minute or 2 my temps have been pretty good right out of the gate. the only problem will be come winter keeping temps high enough but its baby shit that will get handled.I will get a picture of the room with the plants in it, as well as the beginning of the construction of the veg room. tomorrow I will get those loaded up for everyone as well as more pics of the build out. Thanks for the comments and well wishes guys. This grow is for all of you guys and gals out there trying to get started I started in a night stand to this current grow anything is possible.

hey everyone I just got back from getting some things to finish up the construction of the veg and flower room #2. Also I made the order for the last of the equipment we need to finish it all up as well. the quantum 1000 will be here in a week along with the other 6inch fan can33 and muffler. I also grabbed some more 1 inch I.D. rubber grommets for my PPK set up all the buckets will be controlled by 1" pvc pipe and thinking about using 1/2 poly pipe for my pulse feed. Sorry for the lack of pics right now I will get on that asap once I get some more things together to take pics of. also I got a roll of chicken wire fencing for the walls and ceiling. today is the end of week #1 in room #1, another 3 weeks and room #2 will be up and running and fitted with 6 more plants in. Alright I am going to go get some pics taken now I will load them up tonight till then thanks and I will see everyone later
Ok every one I am back with an update of everything that i have going on right now , which seems to be a lot , more like a ton with all the build outs going on. These first 5 pics are of the closet/ veg room and how I had to build it out to what I needed it to do. the top chamber is the clone, mother, ect then down below will be pre-flower. Right now I have the top running only but will have 5 plants going into the bottom tonight as soon as I get the chicken wire hung and the intake fan hooked up, also I need to get some cracks sealed along with weather stripping the door. I split it so that I could run clones and moms 24/7 under a t5 fixture and also run bigger plants under them on a 10/2 on-off with a 400watt MH to keep nodes closer everything will eventually be outfitted to run PPK's but for now till we get everything up and running its just going to be coco and perlite dtw. I figure not next run but the 3rd should be all PPK's in all the rooms veg and both flower A and B. I have a bunch of more pics I d/l'd so on the next page I will describe a lil bit more along with the photos. like I was saying these first 5 are of the closet before i started the build out and the light trap divider between the two chambers, this took me the longest to do so far between feeding room A and trying to get room B up and running. It all has come together pretty well so far. enjoy the pics guys

alright these last ones are mostly of the flower room I have going now but the first picture is of the inside of the bottom chamber of the veg closet before i put the chicken wire fence up on the walls. The second is looking into the flower room doorway the 3rd pic is of the biggest plant in the room it was already hitting the ceiling before it went into the room. The last picture is of the hygrometer my lights on temps always hover around 77 to 79 and drop to 67 at night R/H has only been at 70% on and 50% off we'll see how things look after i get the 1000 in there and the second room up and running. well till next time guys I will try and get on more regularly just as soon as I get everything up which should be too much longer till then keep it safe and green everyone

Looks like someone has done their homework
Thanks guys it's coming along pretty smooth so far, I had to take a cpl days off from building started to get burnt out but for the most part I'm pretty caught up until the 1000 gets here along with the second can 33 then I can finish the second flower room.

lookin good man...keep it up!
We picked up some new beans yesterday for this new grow. Grabbed a pack of hortilab sour pink grapefruit and a pack of the sour amnesia as well. They should be here in about a week to 10 days. So far things are moving along pretty smooth so far. I'll post some more pics in a day or 2 as soon as we get the 1000 in and out up. Thursday will be 3 weeks on room A so far I'm pretty sure stretch is coming to a halt and will start packing on some weight. Room B should be up and running in about a week. Still waiting for my can 33 to get here that's all we are waiting for on room B. I'm gona move 2 out of room A and into room B as soon as it's up, there just isn't enough room in A for them so they will finish in room B which works out cause I don't have enough to fill B all the way. I'll be back in a cpl days with my 3 week update on room A till then keep it safe out there.

Small update as of today my beans arrived 7 days from ordering them that's crazy lol but any ways there is 8'different strains. The 2 main stains the hortilab sour amnesia , sweet pink grapefruit will be logged in the hortilab section , but the rest well bee featured here I'ill get the names of the bunch tomorrow when I soak them for 24 hrs before I place into paper towel on a heat Mat. I know a few are silver kush, sour kosher, Apple jack, hippie killer, an auto cheese and the other one I just can't remember.
Still waiting on the filter and flange to get here was supposed to be today but never showed up so hopefully it gets here tomorrow. I have 2 plants that can really use that room up and running. Been really under the whether latly I have some pics but just to ill to get on my computer to load them. As of yet things are looking good I really need a 4" fan on my veg room but that will come with time. Hope everyone is doing good and keeping safe.

lookin good hb! good to see you made the move and were doin the damn thing
this thread is over, needless to say my so called partner screwed me over and pushed me out after getting him all set up, I even lost a good bit of equipment from it. I had to move back to where I was but things are going to be popping off this season yet.
Look out in the next next week I should have something up. I purchased a pack of greatful casey's from connoisseur genetics a cpl months back and I have one up and about the first 3 stages of trues sets are already out. its going to be going into the old tent in my old PPK set up. Hope every one had a great Christmas and is staying safe this year.

Damn man! That sucks the big one!
The one time I partnered up my dude was a complete asshat and I decided to never do that again!
Roll solo bro, get your double bubble and upgrade!
Glad your safe bro...
Yet another lesson learned the hard way... Gets old fast,don't it...lol
Something to apply to the next opportunity has it's won value though...
Hopefully you made a spare key and know when the crop will be close to finish... hehe...
Glad you have some back up beans and your getting back to your game...
Work some magic and I'll be looking for the new show when it's time...
Good to see you bro....

Learned an age old lesson the hard way the boxes. Just be glad a crop and some equipment was all you lost. I had a partner once, cost me ~250k in losses when it was all said and done. Oh and a trip to the big house..........
