This looks good, interested to see how the temps work out in your situation.

re: Weedy's At It Again - 2000W Indoor & Outdoor
I'm currently trying to figure out how I'm going to make everything work. Bought an 8000 BTU air conditioner / dehumidifier. Problem is i blew the breaker. I have three breakers in my garage and I'm only running 1 1k and 1 400 watt right now. I intended on flowering under 2 1ks.
So I'm currently trying out find if there's another outlet in the garage because i cant figure out what the third breaker is for. One being the lights. One being the two outlets that I was worried the a/c would be too much. Seeings how on 8 outlets we have a fridge. A deep freezer. And all my grow stuff. A 1000 watt, 400 watt light. 3 osculating fans. 2 6" can fans and the control bucket/ pumps for the hydro. And two airators.
If I can figure out what third breaker is I'll be good. But right now in have an extension cord running out to the garage from the house to power the lights seeings how the ac has to be plugged into an outlet. And the 1400 watts of lights with the ac is too much for the breaker out here. So last night I just had the 1000 on the extension cord and The 400 on the garage breaker. And it all ran fine. But I don't want to run extension cords. Any body know their electric and wanna lend me some information ?

Temps with the ac have been 77-80 a much better number than before. However the way this is set up ducting all this is going to be a hassle

Are the 3 breakers located inside the garage? Or located in the house for the garage?
In they're in the garage, and you have a breaker panel in there, remove the cover (not just open the access door to the breakers). There are usually 4 screws that hold it on.
Be very careful not to actually touch anything inside (I know you're not dumb, but I have to say it!) You'll see bare copper, white insulated, and black insulated wires if its newer electrical. bare copper and white insulated (neutral) are connected to the bus bars, and the black insulated wires (hot) to the breakers. First see if there's a black wire on the breaker. If so, now you can carefully trace it outside the box, and to which receptacles/switches/lights it runs. If there's no wire on it, you have a free circuit to use.

Yea I haven't taken the cover off. There was just a bunch of shit in the garage in general last summer. Since then we've built some sheds and moved stuff out however the boat and other stuff are still in here blocking off an entire wall and half the back wall so once we pull that out I cane look for new outlets or anything else. All I know if the third breaker doesn't seem to shut off anything. And the pull barn has its own breaker box as well as the garage I'm in. So I'll have to check under the cover and see what were working with

Some updates for you guys. Got the ac in and ducted. Lights are ducted. Just need to duct the carbon filter then combine the three and exhaust through the attic. Soil plants I believe are 6 weeks from seed. Hydro just finished 3rd week since a clone

Count down until flower. Next wed will start 12/12. The hydro will be starting week 5/week 1 flower. Soil will be starting week 7/week 1 flower. So they're off by two weeks. The soil being from seed. The hydro from clone.
I'm getting excited. So my buddy gave me free samples of the extra additives I was missing from the heavy 16 line up. And I will see if they show enough improvment to buy them all or not. Only gonna use them in the hydro.
I'm gonna flower my soil plants with floronova bloom. Moab in the beginning of flower. And either Moab or koolbloom for a finisher for the soil.
The hydro will most likely end with heavy 16 bloom base. And probably prime, roots and fire.
RO is also fixed And up and running. Brand new filters and reading 005 ppm and a pH of 6.5 from it.
Outdoor ladies are doing good. They will be transplanted into a mix of promix and FFOF in a 20 gal pot. And they will be feed floronova grow. And bloom once they start to preflower end of July / august. I may also use koolbloom as a finisher for them.

Another update for you guys. We start flower on Tuesday. Soil just got a flush. The hydro will get flushed starting today. Then get fresh bloom nutes for the first week or flower.
My buddy gave me a free clone for outdoors. Said it was "super sour" but who knows really. So well see how she does. Already put her into a 20 gal pot with a mix of sunshine mix #4 and FFOF. Let's see how she does

Damn weedy I likes the looks of this.
I have 2 1kw ballasts but no way in hell I'd have room for it.
Subbed for sure.

Flipped the switch on these beautiful ladies. They've had one 12 hr dark period followed by 12 hrs of HPS light. So then count down has begun. Needless to say. Here's some pics for you guys

Got a little upset for you guys. Transplanted the outdoor ladies into 20 gal smart pots. The soil is a mix of pro mix. And a 1/3 of a bag of FFOF per 20 gal pot. They seem to love it.

Now the fun begin with your outside girls. They'll start growing acouple inches a day. 2,000 watts in that 4X8.... man that's a lot of light. I know the plants will love it. Come dead summer man it's going to get hot in there. Not sure what you have for ballasts but I changed over from magnetic ballasts to dimable ones so I can cut them back alittle on them hot days. Looking great

I have magnetic ballasts. I run my lights 9pm-9am to help with heat plus I have a stand up air conditioner inside the tent. Today it was 88* outside it was 77* inside the tent lights off. The other night it was 80 something and with the lights on I was still running 78-80* inside.
Right now it's 86 inside my garage and 74 in the tent.
Yea the outside ladies I've been aggressively topping everything. I'm going to stop topping this week and I'm just gonna let all the new tips grow big and strong. And I'll just super crop the tallest one to maintain an nice sized bush. I'm excited each one of these are easily bigger than all my outside plants last year put together. I'm hoping 6-8 oz. each anything more will be just gravy by me.

I just made a somewhat similar mix... I cut one bale of Promix HP with about 1/3 of a bag of FFOF (all I had left) and 30 lbs of worm castings, hope my plants like it as much as yours do, won't know until transfer time

Those things are looking great!!!! It's making me consider doing an outdoor grow next year since I don't think I have enough time to do one now!

It's probably too late to start from seed. But throw a few comes out and see what you get. Free bud is free bud. I've only spent maybe $150-200 on these. So any return and I'd be happy
