    :devious: I had a descent grow in my box that i made the first time i ever tried growing to completion.. even though i had a heat problem like i couldnt beliefe... and ended up getting bout 2 1/2 ounces of increadibly fluffy stuff.. but ive just finished ripping apart the grow start of time number 4 and the last 3 tries ive goten bout 3 inch plants and then come back to check on them to discovet that theyr completely brown and dryed up... anger.... i know its my heat problem cause I'm hovering at a constant 90 degrees and i cant shake it cause i need a better fan, something like

    that.... or

    this

    but also I'm deciding weather I should swap over to dirt rather than hydro cause i find that i dont usually check my plants for at most 2 days at a time and i think thats the problem... the water level is getting to low.. i dont think i would have nearly that much of a problem with a dirt grow

    any thoughts??

    HIGH All, yes Schrananapuss...how th fuck to you pronouce that!!!! *LOL* yes ventalation is so important as your finding out..the Dayton blower is the same one I have and works great..how are you doing your Hydro grow..sounds like you need a drip system to keep your little ones happy? It's best to have good air cuming in and bad air growing out.

    its all out of a big ass sterralite tank from wallmart i could turn it into a drip system but is it ok if the plants are still dangeling into my resivaur which would be the same tank since i have it set up like a massive bubble bucket system right now, I'm afraid that if that is the case i would put in a water pump but cut out the air pump and the roots would grow down to the point of the water and a section of them would get choaked off from sitting in standing water.. id have to remake the whole shit if i was going to turn it into a drip system.. although i suppose it could be done.. just no cashola for the materials to do this right now.. i think that if i just watch the water a little better i should be fine plus ive gone out and bought a shit ton of those peat pellets and a tray for starting the litttle guys out.. maby if they just had a better start they would do alright.........
