peace

hope ull get better soon man
and the plant defenetly will
nice progress with your building im waching and enjoing it a lot

i have a question for u or someone else who might know.
i cant find a carbon filter in my location
so i wont to try an air purifyer like this

http://www.allergybuyersclubshopping...purifiers.html

but the one using this tecknology (PhotoCatalytic purification)
its described here

http://www.air-purifier-power.com/ph...-purifier.html

please tell me what u think
this tecknology is used in hospitals to wipe out all the bacteria and shit

looks like it might also destroy all the smells
is it?

[Don Piano]

I guess it depends on how you use it. It would probably work good for me. But for someone venting, I would not want to be them. I'd just buck up and pay the shipping to get a carbon filter. You don't want to get busted.

[screwdababylon!]

well the room with my cab is pretty small
and the air is not coming from my apartment to the stairs
well... untill its super strong i think
i dont know becouse i never grew buds - only male plant(((

thats why i wonder how well does that tecknology might work

[Don Piano]

Well If you want to use titanium dioxide, try odor killing CFLs. Much cheaper. But it does work. Just not to the degree that we need for budding plants. Mom room, it'd be fine, but for flowering, I'd hate to spend that kind of money on something that might not work for your application.

[Don Piano]

Well, my back is not as bad as I thought. I was thinking I was going to be out for a week at least. It feels Ok tonight. I still have pills left from my appendectomy, so they get me by along with some smoke. I think I am going to insulate tomorrow morning, and then I am going to the lake. We have a hot tub there and I could really use that! Nothing better than a Doobie in the hot tub for the lower back.
Well, maybe a Crown n Coke to go along with the above.

I got the baby transplanted to a grow bag. The roots were very abundant in that little 3.5" pot. She's gonna love the new soil she's in. I'll have a pic to update that tomorrow or Sunday.

[Don Piano]

Well, off to the lake. Peace all. Blaze one or two for the fallen growers this Memorial Day!

[screwdababylon!]

I just finally got caught up on this CGE and now I have a few questions for ya.

1. How can I move an electrical outlet into a closet?
2. What was the rubber in the paint for?
3. What kind of IR insulation and shielding did ya get?
4. Im only going to be running 2 400w along with the fans and C02, it will be scheduled so one light will turn on as the other turns off (2 flowering rooms on 12/12) is there any reason for me to get a GFCI or put it on a delay?

BTW your grow room is looking legit, keep up the hardwork and maybe it will rub off on some us.

To run power into a closet, you will have to tap into an existing outlet, and run the power through the homes framing, into the garden area, and put a new outlet where you ru the wire to. You will be best off using 14-2 or 12-2 ROMEX. (we can talk more about that if needed later)

THe rubber in the paint, is to make a solid membrane for my room. I did not want odor or CO2 loss. I am making it so the only loss of co2, is the plants using it themselves. Worth the $18 a gallon.

For the IR sheilding, go to discount-hydro.com and check it out.

The GFCI is a good idea. The circuits I ran have gfci built into the circuit breakers in the breaker panel. If you install a gfci outlet where you have an outlet already, and then tap into it and run power to the closet, you will not need to install a seperate gfci in the closet at all, being that a gfci will protect any outlets on the circuit, not just it's own outlet.
Just make sure that the circuit you tap into, does not consume alot of amperage already with computers, high powered outdoor lights, ect...

A time delay circuit on the ballast is a good Idea to prevent hot starts. search out
HLC-2e

Glad you could pop in. thanks for your interest in CGE.

the only thing missing don is two hot ladies posing and pointing in awe!

[Don Piano]

There's only one hot lady in my life. And she refuses to be pictured. Can't say I blame her, being that there are a bunch of pics of me on here already.
I am going to get a picture of my baby right now. I'll be back in a bit to post it.

[Don Piano]

OK. First 2 taken on friday morning
Pic 3 taken yesterday
Pics 4 and 5 taken today
4 and 5 look look more yellow from the 1 added 2700k cfl, all the rest of the pics are under 6500k only

[Don Piano]

Got the outlet strip in on the wall opposite the AC, and got the power for the CO2 solenoid run out of the cab, and sealed all holes with white silicone. Gonna attempt to insulate tomorrow, if my back will let me crouch around in that attic. We're half way home.

[RobsGreen]

Hey Don, glad the back is doing better and things are moving along. Plants look nice I'm sure they can't wait to see there new home.

[Don Piano]

Thanks. It's just one plant though. And only its clones will see the new cab, to determine sex. I will be starting all of my seeds in a few days. Time to start posting in my grow journal as well. I have been taking pics every other day or so. It was one I started because of a dream or somthing, I can't remember why i did, it was when i was doped up after my appendectomy. I think it was for motivation. Yeah, that's it. Motivation.
