Mini split arrived... Schedule has been so fucking tight lately. Barely have enough time to water the veg girls. Just tryna throw as many things in as I can. Might flip em tomorrow so week 1 of flower will officially be around march 1st.

Anyone have a suggestion for a fan/filter for this size room? I was thinking a Can100 w/ 8in filter.... I think it might be a little overkill but I'm running some serious stinkers this round and don't want to sacrifice security to save a few bucks.... Also looking for a co2 Generator with a controller. I was told that a 4 burner would be enough to handle a room my size... As far as a controller goes most likely will be either a CHHC4 or a GreenAire SPC-1... Besides the fan/filter and co2 set up everything is purchased. Will report back tomorrow with some shots... rooms still a disaster but you will get the picture! :tiphat:

I have a EVC-2 and the CPPM-1 combined. They work very well together.
The CHHC-1 will work good but can sometimes pop the breaker if too much things are on it at once.
The smaller 6 burner Co2 generator works very well for a 12 x 12 foot area.

I only noticed a 15% increase in yields but my room wasnt sealed 100%. I had a couple very small leaks from the door into the room. Using Co2 burner/generator also creates major heat.
Your exhaust/can-fan combo, must be shut-off or blow back into the room. Only have an intake, or else you will be playing see-saw with your Co2 levels and temps.
Its tricky to get a room with Co2 dialed in. And expensive. Im sure you've done the research.
Its hard to spend anytime in the room too without gassing yourself into a major headache.
Be carefull. Be smart. Be safe.

I donno how much co2 ur spitting into ur rooms Alone, lol, but I never get headaches in my rooms. And I didn't think co2, by itself, would be raising the temps........... But a co2 generator will create heat.

Tyga - I use 20 pound tanks and this plug and play device/monitor called DigiGro COCO ... I've bought several off eBay & they work just as advertised. Plug the digigro into the wall, piggy back the co2 regulator/solenoid onto the digigro power cord (you'll see, the cord has like a double outlet) and your running. It keeps the ppm between 1200-1300 ppm at all times.

Pic update tommorow... Everything is purchased. Ceiling and floor are all poly'd... Was going to use foam board but it just wasnt in the budget at the moment and these plants are already way over-vegged and packed for space in the 5x5 tent. 2 of my Pre98bkXNL5 Haze are already 5.5ft tall and thats prior to the flower stretch! Going to be a lot of twisting, tying and snapping going on the next few weeks.
Mini split is going to start to be installed tommorow morning but since my schedule is so tight im assuming it will be a few day process.
Aiming to be up and running on the 16th... So a week from today. My odd plant count this round is going to make my set up a tad bit sloppy and yeild a little less than hoped for. Plan to flower the 3 S&C's around a 1K vert.. 2 pre98BkXNL5Haze around another vert 1K. Then the Last pre98bkXNl5haze will be trellised under a horizontal 1K and my ECSD will also be under her own 1K. Next round will be 100% vert and yeild will be up to where it should be. Im shooting for 3 bow's this round. The horizontal reflectors will be adjusta-A-Wings... No sense of aircooling with the split in there.

Also does anyone know what this gummy stuff is on the breaker? It's on the side that snaps into the main panel. Not the side with the wire terminals. When I picked it up every breaker in that box had the same type of thing going on.... wondering if its normal?

Okay gunna shoot a few more questions you guys way! Room is almost all set... Shooting for april 1st. :tip hat:
For this outlet, 220V I assume that you just cap off the neutral? I know the 2 hots go to the brass and the green to the ground.

Also any ideas on how to hang this sort of socket? Seems to be a serious PITA... no where to attach those V style metal hooks without making the lamp tilt like crazy...

This one was nice and easy! V hooks fit right on base of the bulb

Ya there is no need for neutral on these outlets, so just cap it off if it's there. However, if you have yet to run the cable the standard is to use a 2 conductor wire (black, white, ground; using the white as a hot) and save a few bucks on the unused wire. (Do remember to mark the white as hot though.)

Also the goop on the breakers does serve a purpose, but it is also used as a way to determine if the breaker has been used; Many electrical suppliers won't accept a return on a breaker that has been used or the goop disturbed...

I used 3 small chains connected to the holes on the ring, then connected together above the cord with a hook ta hang.. Easy and worked...
