  1. it comes with 25 feet im not using all of it im going to cut it i only need about 8-9 feet so i shouldnt need another fan im going to place the fan on the outside of the tent and pull through  the light through a filter   ok and 6 lbs of perlite done.........do u need to empty the pots after every grow and put all new soil..........................also can i get a huge container and premix the 12lbs of soil the 5 lbs of ewc and 6 lbs of perlite and just use what i need when i need it 

     
  2. yea that should be fine with 1 fan then :)
     
    soil can be re used with amendments
     
    and you can mix all the stuff together and leave it aside, but it needs to breath
     
    Ive got a 250 litre drum I mix my soil in and use what I need, but I leave the lid off and every couple of days give it a mix so bottom can breath.
     
  3. what do u suggest for easy seedingling growing........and controlling humidity----i know seedlings through vegging should be about 60% and flowering should be around 40%   but not sure how to control it.....
     
  4. tiny seedling propagator would be cheapest option for contolling RH. or even a plastic bottle cut in half and put over the pot(remember to air it)
     
    for veg I use a humidifier to keep rh at 65%
     
    for flower I use a de humidifier to keep rh below 45%
     
    for drying my harvest I keep rh at 62%
     
    depending where you live you might not need either or you will need both. where I am rh can be 35% - 70% so need both :/
     
    although in summer I use portable ac wich lowers temps and rh
     
  5. Man you DIY-ers are crazy. just buy new soil
     
  6. Why? Even as crapped-out as I am, mixing from commercial components is easy enough. It's mixing from hand-done components that's a bitch.
     
  7. Nice pic update Indie!
     
  8. can that be done with just uppping the exaust fan ??? i dont wanna hav e to buy a dehumidifier and humidifier..........looking at herbies tonight to buy seeds YAYYYY
     
  9. depends, if I want 40% rh and outdoors is 70% rh.  then even with 10x required airflow im not going to get lower than 70% (because it replace the air with 70%)
     
    also if outdoors is 30% and I want 65% to veg then turn extractor down can raise it a little (as well as temps) but not enough
