Yeah, it's definitely not an actual bug, it looks like the leaf is oozing it out, or possibly some bug is depositing something there.

Those Marconi's are pretty good. Real long red heirloom sweet peppers. Just don't kiss it.
Yeah they are. My buddy I got them from run an organic farm and has a grip of them. Picked up some when I picked up the seedlings. Traded a couple baby Haze for them. Haha, love the barter system.
They are in the same room as my flowering ladies. 68-75*F 40-50% humidity. They are in pots though.

My 8" HO are less cfm than that, those must be a new model.
Yeah in hindsight, I was a bit too high and excited... I mean yeah it's more CFM, but I already have 4 inlines... 2 6" HO, 1 8inch HO, and a 8" MAXFAN. The MAXFAN is the quietest... technically... It's also the whiniest, high pitched, and in the immediate vicinity, the loudest of them all. I guess on the outside of a building it is probably the quietest. High frequencies don't penetrate nearly as well as low frequencies.

Duct mufflers, and insulated ducting do help with the noise.

Not sure about the fans, but MBFerts are some good people. Tom is a straight shooter (which I like).
Which products have you used, and how did you like them?

I had already bought CC nutes elsewhere before finding him, but I bought like $5k worth of equipment from him. In turn, he gave me a bottle of hormones for free, but I haven't used it yet. I've ran into a LOT of delays getting the rooms up and running. I think I am pretty close now; a year later (at least $20k total, sitting... waiting... wasting...

Sounds like a hell of a project... Haha
I've got a new post about fire safety in the new room. If anyone has any input feel free to post in the new THREAD or here.
I seriously have no clue what I want to do. There are way too many options for room designs...
I could build two 9'x9' rooms in the garage and flip them. The advantage being concrete floors and drywall, as well as allowing me to bring friends/people into my main home. Disadvantage is insulation will be needed to ensure sound doesn't travel to the street, and I will have to move plants in and out of it during the night, as the side door is exposed... What is the optimal lighting for a 9x9? If I put things on rollers I could potentially run FOUR 4x4 donuts with stacked 600's in each, totaling 4800 watts. Could be really nasty.
Or I could build a 16x10 room and a 14x8 room upstairs in the main house. Disadvantages to this would be cost to build the rooms, and awkward layout as well as unused space... Also vaulted ceilings make for weird height issues. I could shrink the rooms I build upstairs to 8x8 or something and could potentially run 3 rooms. But I'm not sure how I would light an 8x8 without cramming shit together and making a mess...
Third option is to just use the existing space as is, hang lights and attempt to fireproof everything as much as possible and use like 5 auto extinguishers up high as a last resort...
Assuming we are going for pure efficiency, I would think stacked 1k's or 600's and running donuts would be the winner. What is the most efficient tree room layout? 10'x10' with 5k? Or maybe 10'x10' with 10 600's? All these designs seem to limit me in the amount of room I would have to work around the plants. It almost has me wanting to leave everything as is and just lay some pond liner down, install ACFI, GCFI, and armored conduit, and stack bulbs. I could potentially run 3 stacked donuts in Flower #1, and 2 more in Flower #2. As well as 1 horizontal scrog in each flower room. Totaling 7k in #1 and 5k in #2...
As long as I isolate the ballasts and electrical in the lung room, ACFI/GCFI, armored conduit, and add some auto extinguishers I think I could continue with the same setup and be fairly safe.
This is turning into a design nightmare, lol.

The 3 donuts in one room then 2 in the other plus the horizontal scrog in each sounds like what I would go with, just my opinion.
that way you can monocrop every tent/table and get the most out of each strain.
and the extra space for flat gardening would be awesome if you got something you want to run but it stays shorter than katt williams..
(not ideal for vert growing)
Either that or the 4 donuts in the 9x9, so you can do a diff strain in each tent.. I'm really keen on the idea of monocrop... but with 4 donuts in that small of a space, I can imagine the setup to be very cramped and tricky.
I didn't see this about bobbles fire, can you point me there?

Cool im getting close on one of my vert scrog runs. Maybe ill snap a pic for ya of how I do it. I think im gonna have a pretty good pull on mine, even though I got them too far from the bulbs.
You gonna have improved yields on this run?
