Hawaiian Punch

No real stretch at all when flowering- trains well-takes trimming well great smells and tastes - on the low side for yields it looks like yet has a potential for potency for sure.

That would be a great taste..
HP x GSC

Well I plugged in the vacuum in the living room in a shared outlet to the tent a hour before lights on and either shorted somethin or blew a circuit (Guessing later)
Using extension cords from other outlets to run just exhaust and the 600.
I work tomorrow and Im not a electrician so Tuesday will be interesting..

Googled it and looks to be a easy fix...

Might have ta call a pro and just keep him out of the room.. IDK..

Hows that goin for me..

Hate stress..

You got fuses or circuit breakers?... should be an easy fix... hit me up bro.

Thanks bro.. Will do.. gots a circut breaker..Hoping it's just trip ta home depo.

Girlfriend finding out scares me most..lol

My understanding is I just take the cover off..
Un screw the circuit breaker hold bolt and pull it out.
Plug in new one replace screw and done..

Sound right ?

should just have to switch the breaker over... find the one where the lever isn't facing the same direction as the rest and flip it so it is facing the same direction(just like flipping a light switch)... DON'T REMOVE THE BREAKER... if you have any more issues snap a pic of your electric panel and I'll make you a diagram, it's so easy you will kick yourself in the ass though. BE SAFE and any time you're unsure what you're doing with electrical ask and double check what you're told because it's the most dangerous part of what we do.

P.S. grow looks dope bro.

Pulled in vacuum and it ran the puff. No power...

If you have to change the breaker get the same brand (Square D in your case) Make sure to turn off the main breaker(might be outside next to your meter) this will kill all power to the house so make sure you have a flashlight handy, I like headlamps that strap to my noggin leaving my hands free. You want the box power free before yanking the breaker, otherwise it probably just snaps in and there will be a set screw holding the wire in.

Cool.. I found the main.. I'll get the same brand and do the deed..
Have ta wait till tomorrow as im working and dont needs ta do this in the dark...


Almost made it lol Day 55...

Goint ta have ta do things a little different next season.

After these get cut im pulling the LED and 2 fans and the LED pumps heat out the top like crazy.
So this should help. That and the 300 watts of CFLs will be off.
Cutting 600-700w out should help keep it safe..

Just hope these ladies aren't looking for 70+ days...

Most the LED ladies look ta be finishing so they should be off soon..

Same procedure for installing new breaker/circuits so run yourself some dedicated outlets (if you have spare slots in your electrical panel) when you can swing it. I was working this afternoon too, I'm off tomorrow so if you hit any snags just holler.

Bummed. .. Changed out the breaker and no power- nothing. ..

I guess it's a short..

Some where in the line..
I only have a basic meter/reader.. thingy...lol

Im guessing an electrician would want in the room (issue)

Suggestions ?

I do have a unused 20amp outlet-breaker outside.
I could run a fat exstention cord under the house into the room till I chop these ladies.
Then take everything out and call.. (thats a painful idea) would be a couple weeks...

My only plan -B-

There are 5 outlets connected to this one breaker.
Wonder if I replaced all of em.. I remember the one in the room would get hot...
Reading Google how to. Info..

I could replace with GFCI outlets... humm...

Turns out it was a fried wire.. Changed out old sockets and replaced with GFCI sockets..

Going to run the 600 and LED off the outside 20amp line using the exstention cord ran under the house through the closet floor...

Yeah I gotz real lucky..

Changed out the main outlet (Had 6 wires)
Looks to have been wired wrong..
More burnt wires. .
Amazing what Google can teach you..

Rewired and replaced with a GFCI socket..
All outlets are good and Im feeling ready ta get on with it and get er done..

Packing up the build material and putting things in the shed as bo more builds planned. Time to stream line and simplicity is a good thang..

All lites and fans on last nite.. looking good in the room and moving closer the good thangs...


Well... I gotz me more experience ta build on and am better for it.. (lucky)
Lesson learned and knowledge gained..

~~~DONT IGNORE WARNING SIGNS PEOPLE~~~ (Hot socket)



Ya may get REAL unlucky...



Thanks for the info - second attempt. It helped.. Good looking out..

Peace... :alien:
