[paper thorn]

Been doing a little each night after work. Connected up most of the insulated ducting tonight.
I should get the intake and exhaust finished tomorrow night. Which means that I can fire up lights and start seeing what my temps are going to be. Might need more A/C.
Soon as I fire them up I'll be cleaning up my debris, and moving in the girls.

If I'm not too tired tomorrow night I'll post an update. Too tired tonight, I know I'll be even more tired tomorrow night. My job is really getting in the way of the important stuff. Making me too tired to do the work I need to get done.

[Laza Haze]

coming along nicely

ah you don't need me in there messing shit up. my best advise is to consider everything, go slow, and go over it all several times to make sure you can just rock out

advise I wish I didn't need reminding of myself sometimes. but it always works out.

you know how I feel about the job getting in the way thing~ im always telling a close friend to get his priorities straight when his job that pays very lil he shows up for, and on time, for years/ meanwhile slacking in his garden which has several times the earning potential.

you know if your good at what you do, work hard, the universe seems to provide. sometimes its hard to make the leap. sometimes life circumstances prevent the leap as well. but I can say in my case the leap has been well worth it. hope you can join the "full time" club soon.

LH` thank you, i'm working hard to get it done right.

Sir~going slow is all it seems like I'm doing sometimes.
Thanks for that post, words of wisdom there, believe me i'm taking it to heart.

OK, been working on the exhaust ports for my ducting. I'm venting my lights through a window. About 4" of styrofoam over the glass. cut in round for a nice fit, all caulked, enough bends in the last piece of duct to trap all the light. No light leaks.

Got to stop a light leak under the ac tomorrow.

Got to cut in the intake port for the lights tomorrow.

Was gonna put in the glass for the big magnum hood but,

Damn it, it's broken.
Maybe a piece of plexiglass will work, maybe i'll need to head into town to get a piece of glass.
what do you think, plexi make it through a run?

[Med-Grower_TOm]

I don't think I would use the plexi, as the other glass is not only heat tempered but blocks bad uv's from your eyes.(though, those uv's are good for the plants as you know)

[paper thorn]

All the girls are under the lights.

Sprayed with some Monterey. Rearranged for height.

Setting up the res.

I'll put up some sort of screen tomorrow night. Or at least start it. Still need a piece of glass for the last hood, but I'm going to put a 600 in it tomorrow and run it open till i get the glass. My fan will be blasting it.

Temps are good.

I'll post up some pics by the weekend. Too tired, c'mon son, go to bed.

[paper thorn]

Big update dead ahead:

Uh oh! just used up 1 pic with a smilie

damn!

Tom~ I just threw a 600 in that hood till i can get a piece of glass. no plexi!
I figure a 1000 will be too hot unducted. temps are good right now.

Hey Sir~, maybe that retirement from the workplace will be sooner than I thought.
Been saying that I'm retiring this year for years. Well, I just got fired after 3 years on this job.

Been doing my job just fine, but don't always hear my phone. Got fired for not answering my phone. Got a 3 day suspension a few months ago by the new mean HR lady.

Hey, I've been on the needs-to-be-fired list since I started. It's a racial thing partly- Ok mainly-, but it's OK- I'm sick of these bastards anyway. Wifey wants to be pissed, but she knew it was coming. She's dealt with these people before too.

On with the show

This is a 4" fan hooked up to this hood. Gives me a little negative pressure in the room, containing the smell and bringing in a little fresh air.



more hoods
That's 2 layers of some styrofoam I had, and a layer of that pink solid foam? stuff i got just for this. Window is insulated and the foam fits super perfect and tight. Caulked in last layer.
That outlet box in the corner of the window is tight. completely sealed.

[noyd666]

congratz on getting fired. I tried for 20 years lol.

[paper thorn]

I have a hodgepodge of hoods.
First in line to the left is a nice big magnum3 or whatever hood with 8" to 6" reducers to fit my 6" duct and fan. Then is a cooltube and then to the right is a regular 6" hood. All with 1Ks. That hood with 4" flanges in the above post also has a 1000 watt.

so 4K in the room



I'm hooked up all the way from the exhaust to the fan. Got no good pic of the exhaust, though it was a work of art. Anyway, gotta cut an intake port.


Got a deadbolt in the doorknob hole. deadbolt goes into a 2x4. put this hasp on the outside. No intruders allowed.
