highonthechroni Dry weight on the bg was 113 and the sour slut was 100 grams. The bg had 6 plants and the ss had 5.


RichdaFactor thnx. All seems to pretty much have the same weight. I still looking for that monster strain. What i get works good for me.

facelift Rubbermaids are 30 gallon. Just recently set up a 50 gallon box for a friend. They are alot taller and wider. The 30s fit perfect in a standard closet. Peace LL
 
jesus.. thats like 7+ zones of chronic from 8 42 watt cfls.def more than ill ever need.. hps what?who? do you think these yields can be achieved from seed? and with fewer plant numbers?

dude06version thats what i like i get just enough for me and the wife and a few good friends. From seed yes,fewer plants maybe if vegged out more. Peace LL
 
OMG I can't believe I just now stumbled upon this thread. That is so freaken sweet Lifeless you must be damn proud of that artwork cuz that is exactly what im lookin at right now. Ok now you must tell me some more details on how you configured your box. It looks alot more simple than red_greenery's and Ambre's so could you elaborate on how you built your's. I also think I am gonna go the no scrubber route for right now and maybe make one later if get's too stinkay. Also can you give me a list of things to buy and tip's on what soil to use ect. Thanks I know its alot to ask but this thread need's a good bumpin anyway's.

mrgrowmez Thnx much

THCpulmonary Not really sure where to start. You should read the begining of the thread and ask from there. Not really much to it. 1 Comp fan,2-30 gallon rubbermaids,White paint,light fixture+4 bulbs. How they grow depends on you. I found that topping and getting them bushy works best. The more tops the better youll do. I built a carbon filter that fits around the inside of the upper box. Gotta tweek it in then ill post some pics. Peace LL
 
Thanks for gettin back to me LL. I did read the beginning of the thread but I was still unsure on how you hooked up your pvc end's on the bottom aswell as how to hook up the fan ontop to a power cord. I saw a post on here one time about a fan that hook's up directly to a power cord with no adapter do you know which one I'm talkin about? Also what type and brand of bulb's do you use? And where could I get a light fixture like you have? Would you recommend that I start from clone's to get a short enough plant? Ok enough question's great grow and I can't wait to see that carbon filter you got in the work's!!!
 
Hello Lifeless, I am new to indoor growing and started my first indoor grow a little over a month ago (landrace Afghans). I also live in a duplex and plan on using this rubbermaid grow technique on my next grow. Anyway, I was wondering about the function of your T shaped light trap. Can you tell me exactly how the light trap is supposed to work what it does? I would really appreciate it.
Thanks :wave:
 
you think there'd be an advantage to adding a light or two at the bottom to light the bottom bud sites? i'm just sorto adapting from my experience with krusty styl setups
 
Very Nice man

Hey LL, I have read all 8 pages and this was a great grow set up. I currently have done something very similar to yours, except I used a card board box and a black plastic 3mm roll to cover the top. I am running a cheap desk top fan and I painted the inside of my box flat white also.

I am running: (1) 42 watt 2700k cfl, (1) 65 watt 2700k cfl, (2) 26 watt daylight cfl's. Also (2) T5's, one is a 24watt H.O. Full Spec. the other is a 13 watt 3100k. Total is only about 200 watts.

Next grow I will try just (2) 42 watt 6500k, and (2) 65 watt 2700k, with both of my T5's. for side lighting. I was talking with a friend just last week about getting him two 30 gal rubbermaids for a nice grow box. I will probably do the same for my next setup.

Stop by and check mine out. I am almost done, this is week 13 starting tomorrow of a 12/12 from bagseed grow. I have started the watering/ flushing process already. Next week I plan on cutting.

Peace, DRKN_MNKY420
