put IMG tags around them so or attached them to your post when your uploading them.

pic's address[/img ] = large pic

Edit your post and wrap the images address in IMG tags.

Looks very very nice btw! Killer strain line up, should be fun :)

do you see when you are writing a post, on the right hand side of the editor, the box with the Smilies in it and below it, the box that says "My Photos" ??

Click the insert button in that box and you'll probably be able to figure it out from there.

thanks carl! hope this works, heres lookin into the room from the hall. og kush up front.

heres lookin at the sour diesel tray on the right OG tray on the left. going to chop the legs on these trays as i am anticipating a big stretch on the sd's
once i get the last two hoods hooked up with ducting i am going to move the OG's over to the 4x8 that is currently housing 60 something green crack's. the og's are just too cramped in that 4x4..

a look at the green crack.

one last look at the sd's first time growing this strain. dont if its the ibl or what but it has vigor and takes whatever i throw at it. loves the N.

thanks everyone ill update with new pictures soon!

very nice looking setups you got there. i'm seeing all these guys with air cooled lights and i'm thinking how behind the times i am

i noticed you are using a work horse of a carbon scrubber, very wise imo. i would suggest to put a thin dust filter around it, that makes the carbon last longer. also you will find that if the scrubber is hanging horizontally from the ceiling the whole air system becomes more effective and efficient.

you might want to consider going with straight coco coir too once for a tryout. i think you will find it works better pure.

looking forward to seeing how those SD will do in that wicked setup. keep up the great job.

:wave:

That shits lookin real nice bro. I like those wood frames you made to support the trays, are they movable? I'm using cinder blocks to keep mine up and while sturdy, they are immobile and next run I'd like to be able to pull em in and out so I was thinking of doing something like yours with casters on em.

I sure was wishing I had table legs to chop a month ago after flipping a few Sour Diesels to 12/12. I didn't know a plant could stretch that much! Mine went from about 12" to at least 30" in 2 weeks.

Nice setup hdn155, good luck!

Bunz · Mar 16, 2010

I see the lights are aircooled and you are using a massive carbon filter in the room. What I don't see is if the a/c'd lights are being filtered also. How you working that?

Equilibrium · Mar 16, 2010

Very nice setup you have, congrats!

Did you build those wood tables yourself?
I suppose you're watering to waste, how do you catch the runoff? Is there a hole on these trays? You put a bucket under or something?
And I guess you're hand watering since I don't see any tank solution or drippers? This must take a lot of time.

Nice job on the vent system it seems neat. Do you notice a big difference with the noise between the insulated ducting you have and normal ducting?

The green crack plants are smaller then the others, I guess they had less veg time right? Oh and that Sour Diesel you have is it from Rez? Just curious.

Nice grow, sorry to ask so much questions, I'm just trying to find some ideas for myself.

SlowCalaToker · Mar 16, 2010

Very nice. My wife would never go for it, but goodonya amigo. Let me live vicariously!

:good:

gaius- Air cooled hoods are great in my experience but let not take away from open bulb hoods. ive had friend achieve amazing results with those ugly adjust-a-wing reflectors.
the filter came with a pre-filter but over it time it got dirty so i took it off and have neglected to get a new one. getting the filter refreshed with new carbon is no biggie my friends dad owns a company that deals in just that.
i totally agree about hanging the filter from the ceiling. maybe ill switch that up after this run.
i consider myself a coco newbie still so i was apprehensive about going straight coco this time. looking back i kind of wish i would have those. perlite is so nasty and dirty and unpleasant to touch.

kigy- no the trays are not moveable. just standing on the 2x4 legs.

boroboro- i just chopped the legs on the tables today and your post made me feel really good about getting that handled. over a 2x stretch is crazy!

bunz- in these last pictures i only have two of the four hoods hooked up. today i finished with the ducting so now all four hoods are hooked up and i will pop a hole in the ceiling and pull cool air from a vent in my roof. once i get that last run of ducting set up the lights will be sealed.

equilibrium- yup my friend built them from scratch. yeah there is a hole in the trays that the run off drains out of into a bucket.
i love hand watering i wouldn't have it any other way. it gives me lots of personal 1 on 1 time with plant. i think it takes about 1 hour to water the whole room.
i wouldnt say i notice a big difference in noise but there is a difference indeed.
the green cracks also had substantially less veg time.
i dont know where there sour diesel is from. just got it from a local clone vendor.

slowcalatoker- thanks for droppin in. since wifey says no no you indeed should live vicariously through this thread!

peace everyone and thanks for stopping by. picture updates coming soon.

~Shhh~ · Mar 17, 2010

See u got the pics sorted, nice... I get a lil jealous everytime I look at your pics, the strain line up is nothing short of mouth watering. I'm about to go threw a load of beans to find some stellar mom's. Have a few OG kush crosses, and a Sour D crosses to.

When I grow up I wanna be like you

lol, lol!

benzo · Apr 11, 2010

you'll be pulling in a fat harvest! good luck

Butterbear · Apr 11, 2010
