Hello fellow green heads and greeting from North Vancouver, BC Canada. SpaceGrinders (AKA TrueBlendz Culinary Products) is proud to join the 420 magazine community forum and would love to offer our advice, suggestions and hear you ideas for anything 'nug' related ;-) SpaceGrinders started...

Yeah I could do that ... i was thinkning of just having the exhaust suck from right beside or above the light ... not making it fully inclosed but realtively. And having the ballast outside the room, and as well , have an intake from my room (which is behind the closet) into the grow area ...

Props! nice work on re-viving the plants! :peace:

CLear Eyes for me .. I heard visine has bleach in it .. eek... LoL ... post a link to the product .. LoL

Not a problem. I;ve beenr reading it all day! Some really good ideas in there for cooling your HPS lights, making an ebb flow system, LOTS! Enjoy, I have!

Ahh ok, thanks. My buddy does dirt and never checks his pH levels. Always worked for him. I'm too paranoid about that sort of stuff and have to know ..

Vinter: Would you say that would be the case for Hydro as well ? I am looking to do one ebb/flow show, but dont want to spend the $$ on a ph tester ... but know I eventually will ..

Where is you ballast located ? In the room or outside ?

How did this end up working for you ? I am starting a show in a small space as well and was worried about the heat. I will be running 400 HPS in a 2x3x6 area. Looking to do an ebb/flow system ... hoping it wont get too humide and hot. Initially I thought of going with a 105 CFM Exhaust (computer...

Not true. The pH is relative to the type of growing you are doing. If it is in soil , whcih can adapt very easily, you can get way from 5.7 - 6.5. if it;s in hydro you would want it at thew lower end of that spectrum. 7.0 PH is way to high!!!

Well it looks like my area is smaller then i thought. It's 2x3'. So I;ve come up with this: Ebb Flow system, flood tray (hopefully hold 10 plants), scrog techinque (once they get bigger), 3x4 inch fans - 105 CFM (exhaust, intake, and one blowing over the little guys). ANything else?

I think i will only use the space as a one stage closet as I am worried about heat, and will have clones instead of seedlings. Autopot ? Anyone ?

Has anyone heard of the smartvalve ? The one that is used with the autopot ? I was reading some interesting info on this little gadget and was wondering if anyone knew how many plants it could feed ?

Thanks for the feedback and advice. Yeah there's a crawl space just above me, so venting should be fine. Now the question is: Hydro or Soil ? I;ve never done hydro before, but I have a lot of experience with soil. Soil seems much easier to control if anything goes wrong, while in hydro, one day...
