Enjoyed reading through this thread mate, you're doing good things. Just wondered what extraction and inlet you're running, with a decent powered light I'm just wondering why the temps are that low? (I noticed you said air change is not perfect). As for the clones in clear cups, great way to see root progress, so double them up with a black external vessel, then you get the best of both worlds.
I'm a newbie myself but just want to offer my 2 penneth worth.
Thanks for an interesting read![]()
Glad you enjoyed it!

I love the input! New angles to think about!
Are you asking about the air-inlet/outlet?
Or did I missunderstand you?
Well, here we go!
The room where the box is placed is like 2.5x3.5 x1,6m (8x12'x5'5").
The walls are really shitty isolated, and its cold outside so I have a "passive" intake from a even shittier isolated frontroom, and a outlet that works like 5 mins every hour, pushing air into the colder frontroom, and allow the back room to take in new air.
If I had a active intake Id probably never get up to 20C.. there is no heat-buffert from the outside-> inside. :/
I add about 100gr CO2 every second/third day throu open flame, and cut the fan outlet for the next 12 hours to give them some co2-boost... I really dunno if its sufficient since I lost all my school-math to calculate this things... and the half hour I spent on google it gave me a headache, so I left it.. (for now)
If you are a math-teacher I would love to hear the answer..
Thanks for the tip on the external vessel-thingy. Ill give it some thought for sure!
lol, im fast... ! figure... to spraypaint another identical cup would be really easy to keep on the outside... just remove it, check roots, put it back on..
Re-usable for cuts over and over again, until you break them by misstake and have to ductape them to get em working for another 10 grows.
Edit; ps. yeah, ill start flushing, so if its overfeeding its not the end of the world.. these beauties are going down within short.. I guess another couple of days with just water would do them good if they are overfeeder right now thou..
