Snap it must have been condensation. It definitely raised the RH for sure though!
-
I exhausted into the room once as well during one Winter in an attempt to actually raise the humidity and I ended up with mini waterfalls on my windowsills

Though shalt not be banned. I think you feel cautious because we removed the images from the gallery, but without context it was pretty random. In this thread it all makes sense and now there's way more exposure. Good on you, guy

Good point. Now actually thinking about it, I've only really seen dudes with 1000W HPS and 615W CMH setups supplementing with CO2. Although @SoloKush did specifically say that his area is completely sealed and that's why he wants the CO2, because maybe there's really zero air circulation at all. In a normal setting, one would get enough CO2 simply from the air exchange caused by an extraction fan as the air in the room cycles naturally. I don't think @SoloKush has that in this case.

Maybe @SoloKush got a lab

I like this idea. I believe it was @Fridge that won SOTM of the year with something like this

Like picking up from his stoep? I'm sure if you got the seeds straight from Totemic you could just pay the comp fee the seeds might be pretty specific and not just any Totemic strain so it will depend on how the logistics work out.

I believe the seeds are free, the charge is for commitment to the competition and/or to cover courier costs.

This particular auto will be grown outdoors with Organic Matters Living Soil and BioBizz nutes.

Here's my Pluto Cut she's coming along. I will put her outside when she is a little more established or if I really need the space.

I shall participate

Invest in all the stonks. Nah, there's more news coming from the grow club sector than from private home grows. The Haze Club put in their case to the High Court last week regarding the SAPS shutting them down. The way things are going, grow clubs will have more "legality" soon than growing yourself at home. In terms of private growing, right now you can literally do what you want as long as you're not selling.

Seeds/clones straight into EazyPlugs

Unfortunately only one of the three Pluto Cut seeds made it on my side. She is then the chosen one

Just always add silicon first when mixing your nutes, then immediately pH back down to normal levels. Silicon is super alkaline and will 100% raise the pH of your feed and may cause deficiencies out of nowhere if you're not careful. I also only really recommend silicon for veg and preflower. I cut out additional silicon apart from the base amount in late flower.

The numbers are in. I have weighed all the dried bud after a few days in the jars and I have the following numbers to show: Zkittlez x Purple Punch - Ripper Seeds x1 - 59g Criminal+ - Ripper Seeds x3 - 159g Royal Gorilla - Royal Queen Seeds x1 - 66g Aurora Indica - Nirvana Seeds x4 - 324g Jock Horror - Nirvana Seeds x2 - 175g Grand Daddy Purple - Green Smoke Room Seeds x1 - 86g Grand total: 869g My total electricity and setup expense (soil, nutrients etc) for the 4 months of growing is a total of R7931. That makes my cost per gram roughly R9.13 per gram This includes my separate veg tent with it's own fans and 120W LED. Gram per meter is roughly 301g/m² I ran the 3 x LEDs each at a maximum of 180W by the end of flowering which is a total of 540W. Gram per wattage is therefore roughly 1.6g/W The tupperware box below is 100g of popcorn buds and some dry trim that I have not added to the above total. We used that to make super strong oil After a good cure I will post some bud pics and a smoke report

@OrganicGrower_ZA so you get 300m³/h of air transfer with that fan. For your tent you want to do at least one transfer of air a minute which is the recommended amount. So you need a fan that can transfer the 8m³ of air in your 2x2x2 tent once every minute. So if your fan does 300m³/h then it does 5m³/min, which means it actually under performs for your tent specifically although I'd say it's good enough if just for simple air transfer.

What size and type of exhaust fan were you running?

Then HPS is your boy. The science says HPS has the best spectrum for flower to this day. I am 100% behind that statement and still own an entire air-cooled in-line HID setup sitting in the closet. However I completely replaced them with LEDs (Quantum Boards). I replaced 2 x 400W HIDs with 3 x 240W QB LEDs. My electricity cost every month was hovering just shy of R2k with the HIDs, with the LEDs I am now paying less than R1k. In terms of quality of flower I can't fairly comment between the two setups. My grows currently are certainly much better than when I had the HID setup however my access to way better genetics from using HID as well as my skill as a grower have increased since. I am honing in on my particular setup and I am pretty sure I can get some ultra primo stuff in due time, not to say the latest harvest didn't bring bountiful plenty goodness. The heat was an absolute nightmare with HPS and I had to time my grow in the year to be closer to Winter just because of that. Just make sure to keep the heat in mind during flowering.

The way I understand it, PM is a fungus and can travel through the air via spores. Plants in your garden or just even outdoors, sometimes even partially underground, can suffer from PM which then passes on to your outdoor cannabis plants.

Got my seeds sitting in the dome since yesterday should be able to get a concurrent grow going. I'll be doing my 3 x Pluto Cut plants outside.

Ooo is that a fancy fancy Bud Box you got there @PsyCLown?
