Urgr8estfear 2nd FLURO ONLY soil grow - start to finish.

[PropheCy604]

If its 100F outside the closet even if he have a 1000 CFM it will be higher than 100F in the closet with light ON. The only key is AC or fluor.

My 106 CFM fan create a very good airflow with passive intake in the floor. Only moving air don't give freshness...

Thanks VTEC welcome to this thread.
Don't worry about the ventilation, here's a little copy/paste i did from the first post in this thread.

So, a bit of handywork seemed in order :


Again more power. 1x 30 cm 30W fan. The 9 cm fans drew 3W each, so this sucker is 5 times as powerful and many more times efficient. I don't know the CFM or maybe even CYM rating of this sucker but if I leave the door of my growbox open by 4 inches the fan will suck it closed. LOL. I guess this will suffice. The difference between room temp and box temp have dropped to about 5 degrees C, which I will improve on further by making the intake hole larger.

And I did make the intake hole larger, its a subtle 10 cm by 30 cm.
Damn thing still sucks the door closed though.
The difference in temps between my grow box and the room the box is in is about 2 degrees celcius, which is excellent!!
Since I cannot afford AC its up to Jah to lower the temps of my box.
Stupid heatwaves!

[SmknVTEC]

Right on.
We have had a heat wave hear too. 9 consecutive days of 100+ temps and multiple 105+ days. Scary. Glad my grow is over because even with A/C my place is too warm for the 400 watt HPS because my A/C could not keep up. Did I miss what strain you are growing too? Ahh the disadvantage of coming to the party late is I have to rely on my poor reading comprehension skills. If you have Indica plants, those are more resilient to heat than sativas.

[urgr8estfear]

My seeds. This says all, click all the way to the 1600x1200 version and read of the package. (and avoid imageshack bullshit popups) :



And lucky me they are Indica for sure.
Stupid global warming is messin' up my country.
I wonder how much one would pay per kWh in Vladivostock.

Day 23, see my plants getting happier and happier :










I'm not seeing any alternating nodes yet but looks to me like most of them will be ready for pre-flowering on day 28. Do you all agree with this?

[youngandstupid]

Plants are looking good, we have a similiar grow setup (flouros) and our start date looks to be damn close too (imne being 4 days behind) and my baby is indica too. I was hoping to pull an ounce or 3 from my baby but looks like it'll be much less based on your first grow. I'm gonna check this thread close since it'll be like looking into the future of what my babies might look like if I grow em right.

[urgr8estfear]

Day 26. Progress is obvious.









The smallest plant I got, top picture of this post bottom-right and on the second picture the plant most right, has issues :
Mangled leaves and only three fingers per leave.
I'm giving it 2 more days to get its act together and then time to pre-flower.
The rest looks great I have big hopes for them.

If the mangled plant gives me shit during preflowering I'll axe it.
Does anybody have any idea to what's wrong with it though?

[glazedJ]

very nice looking plants fear! +rep for the fluro grows, seems like no one uses them anymore blaze on!

[SmknVTEC]

When I click on your picture to get a larger view it goes to the website but the pics don't show up. Therefore I can't quite see whats wrong with your runt. If it is female I would not axe it because it will still yeild bud even though the leaves are wierd.

[urgr8estfear]

SmknVTEC, you puny insignificant little dwarf!

Don't call me a runt!

When editing posts with imageshack links I have to be able to distinguish

this :

with this :

See? Not so easy now is it?

The links have been fixed. Show me your wisdom!

[SmknVTEC]

Ha ha.
Sorry I called you a little runt. Would you prefer "vertically challenged"? Anyway, your dad still did not give me a link that worked. The links were all of you and your brothers and sisters when they were seeds in a package.

[urgr8estfear]

DAMN!
I'm certain they worked YESTERDAY, I edited the link tested them all, all looked great.
Today I see the problem AGAIN.
It looks like one of the mods of the forumsoftware ROLLED BACK my changes.
I'm gonna fix em again.

[urgr8estfear]

OK! Fixed again.
I tested them all again.
Even restarted my internet exploder, still works.
If my post changes again, I'll complain to a moderator.
Either some piece of software isn't really working or somebody is editing my posts after me.

Please try again VTEC, the links should work, you miniature diminutive miniperson you.

[youngandstupid]

well done mate. babies are coming along quite nice should we expect new pix soon?

[urgr8estfear]

Ofcourse youngandstupid, I'll keep you all updated about once every 3 days.

Check out day 29, pre-flowering day 2 :









And special focus on this plant : it's ready to join X-MEN.
It's a mutant for sure.
Check out the repetetive damage, of every pair of leaves one leave has a weird gap in one of its fingers :



Freaky huh? Maybe soon it'll show us some air-roots

I plan to revert back to vegging within two weeks, or that is within 12 days.....
