I just invested on some inline fans to improve the Temps (on the room and the closet) and to try to get the 1k HPS instead of the 400. Ill be posting all the info, hardware and results on the next days. Wish me luck.

Thanks. I got lots of Lights. I got 2 400w MH, 2 400w HPS and 1 1k HPS. What I don't have is a good coolable reflector like getsumkin proposed a post before. Im gonna try to find someone who makes one for me.

Sheet metal workers like people who build ducts for air conditioning and exhaust systems could form your reflectors pretty easily and I would think economically.

Update: Ventilation Project

Hi guys. I finally finished my Vent project in the grow room. I was at it all day on Friday.
Basically the task was to install 2 inline fans (1 for the closet, to take the air out of the room & and 1 to take the hot air from the reflector). I also set out to get the intake air directly to the plants instead of the top of the room. This way all my temps should get much better.

First some room pics pre work.

The Inlines:
2 S&P TD series Inline fans + ducting = $501

The S&P TD500 has a 350 CFM and was installed for the Reflector (it should be work fine with a 1k lamp but ill get that on Monday).

This is all I have for now.

The S&P TD350 has a 200 CFM and was installed on the Closet. Both fans will take hot air trough the top of the room.

First I wanted to get the air from that top intake fan to go straight to the plants adding a box and ducting.

Intake to the Grow Room.

It went from this:

To this:

Right into the main grow area.

The Inlines: I needed 2 big holes for the ducting on the 8 inches concrete roof so i got some Local Help for just $35 in 3 hours.

The result:

Now the fans and ducting:

Fans ON!

I used foamed up to prevent air, ligh or water leaks.

The Inline for the closet:

Now for the reflector:

Horizontal full view:

Now with the Ladies:

Also added some fans and diff spectrum on some CFL. Ill switch the rest when I find something more than 24wtts.

That's it. I'm very very happy with the results. Ill do a follow up on the temps before and after. On Monday Ill try the 1K HPS and check temps again.

Tomorrow Ill Post a follow up on the Mothers growing in the closet.

I've taken so many clones out of this Cream Caramel that there is almost no plant, lol. Ill post pics of the 10 clones I took today. My last clones past away of heat exhaustion. Lest hope that with new lower temps things look better. Last chance.

Attack of the clones!

My last try at cloning, hopefully now with better conditions this time I'll do better. I'm using Jiffis this time too, the soil on the other pots stayed super drenched and rotted all the stems. Lets see how it goes.

I took 10 clones.

I Found 1 dead this morning and replaced it.

Tomorrow we'll see..

You're going to need near 100% humidity for the first couple days.... Hope you got that covered. (no pun intended)

LOL! I use this plastic cups as cover for each individual clone and mist them alot the first days. Its been impossible to find a good cover/dome, so this will have to do.

Ill do a humidity test inside the cups and let u guys know.

re: Indoor Grow - Blueberry & Cream Caramel Fem

I did some Soil PH Test on the main grow with a RapiTest Soil PH Meter. Here are some pics with results.

Blueberry #2 (the tall one)

Blueberry #1

The Cream Caramel

Ill post some pics of the clones tomorrow. I found a "cover" and added some fans in and out for heat problems in the clone box. I have to update some pics of the main grow, they got some flowers now.

re: Indoor Grow - Blueberry & Cream Caramel Fem

Damn, a 1000 watter. I guess if it's only on 12/12 it doesn't use as much power. Should def see an increase in yield, whats the lumens on that?
