Yo wassup guys.
So here's the deal.
Pc cab ~ cfls ( 129w 3 x 20w 2700k 3 x 23w 6400k )
2 x pc fans 80mm intake and 120mm for outake ~ (diy) carbon filter
Autoflowers. Various strains from Dr Krippling.
Currently day 37 with incredible bulk auto

Ill be happy with anything around 1/2 - full oz per grow. ( single plant )
Will upload pics when i can.
Last few days i have sensed sommehig was wrong with her. Thought it was lack of nutes. So topped them up to just under full strength only to realise it was a mag def. So slight nute burn. Am watering wih plain Water for now. And given a spray with epsom salts

Sorry about the delay. Some of those pics are the same.. sorry

 

[nightsmokerG]

They look really nice.How many they are?

 

[DeanoA7x]

Just the 1 she's on day 38 today. Pics takin yeah at day 37. ..
I think she's filled out quite nicely

She looks amazing. Looks pretty big for a pc case grow. I'm going to start a solo cup grow, hopefully they look this good. Good luck!

Thanks !
Not sure if my pot size has helpped me or just good genes.
I wasn't happy with any pot i could find. And most people I see use 2 litre tubs / ice cream tubs..
I just wanted a bigger pot. So i made one out of a washing up bowl. Cut in half and glued back together for perfect fit.. it's a 6.5ltr pot. I've not seen anythig about this in a case..?

The pot is for the roots.The bigger the pot the better for the root system.
Small pot=small plant (more depressed iwould say).Big pot on the other hand doesn t necesserily mean big plant.

So the other day I've fitted on my carbon filter. Works great. Removed if say 95% smells. Only problem I'm now facing is temps!since fitting the filter im Running an average temp of 30c. Before i was at a steady 26-27c
Now it's even gone as high as 35c
Obv I dont let it stay like that.
But any ideas to help lower temps?

Pics taken today Day 42 (6weeks) just before lights on
How's she looking?

 

[DeanoA7x]

Had to take a couple bulbs out for heat control...

 

[nightsmokerG]

What is the outbox temp?If it lower than 30 try ad some more intake fan top side..When do you think turning into 12/12?

 

[DeanoA7x]

Outside temps are about 10c. Colder during the night.it's basically in my shed outside.
You think another intake will work.?
Won't that take away my neg pressure inside?

 

[DeanoA7x]

If I add in another fan. Won't that in turn slow down my other 2 fans cus ill hook it up to the wiring for the current fans..

 

[DeanoA7x]

Or should I add another exhaust.. means of have to make another filter but would 80mm be sufficent enough

 

[DeanoA7x]

Wow. Quieter than a library in here

 

[nightsmokerG]

I would try to remove the foil and add some more airflow.6 bulbs in there i think they are more than enough.Also the outtake of air only happens with the carbon wich is inside the box i guess?
A pic of the box would help us understand.

 

[DeanoA7x]

I think I'm going to somehow add in another exhaust in the top of the case.
Here's some recent pics. Day day 51
Alot of the leaves surrounding my main cola tent to droop alot .. it's not under any stress.
It's not underwatered. Nor over watered.
Could it be heat.?
Otherwise she's ticking along nicely. But don't think she'll be fine in 18-23 days...?
