My First (unintentional) Grow

ready to flower, not veg *

Did the fan come with hanging brackets?

Will the ceiling of the box hold the weight of the fan and filter with proper fasteners?

 

[devo6786]

It did come with hanging brackets. I want to figure out a day to hang from bungee cords to reduce noise. The top of the box is pretty thin as it stands, I may have to replace the top with some thicker wood if I can’t think of any aterbatives

A way to hang*

I let my bigger plants die. They just never bounced back to 100% and they were taking up space. The yield wouldn't have been worth the extra work.

I hung the filter inside the box and put the fan outside. Theres a lot more room now.

I also raised the LED panel quite a bit. The bigger plants seems to be getting sunburnt before I got rid of them, dont want that to happen to these little guys.

They're all topped and tied down. Three were grown outside (just moved inside) two were grown inside. All from the seedlings earlier on in this post.

Got some pvc and made a little stand to install some trellis soon.

Here are a couple of photos with natural light as well

Long time no update. 5 plants are still going strong. 1 week into flower. 2 confirmed female and still waiting on the other 3 to show gender...

Now the fun part begins!!

Is this going to be a 1 and done, or have you taken clones? and/or have seeds lined up for the next run?

I don't have anything constructive, but I like this thread.

Im traveling this summer so Im going to have to wait until I get back at the end of august to do it again. Im definitely learning a lot and know Ill do soooo much better the next round. I have bag seed, but next time I might pick up some feminized seeds.

Week Two Flower. All five of my bag seeds plants are female!

Opps, here are the photos

So, maybe some advice?

The cabinet is pretty hot. Its hottest is 86F. Im in California and temps have been between 65-75 degrees. The room the cab is in is about 70-75 on average.

My intake is passive, 8"x4"

My outtake is running a 44 cfm 120mm case fan until I need to install the carbon filter, which will most likely be right before flowering.

Whats the best way to cool it down? Should I just install the 4" inline fan now and scrap the PC Fan all together?

Do I add another passive intake? Or make it larger?

Yes!

 

[MrBungle]

Yes!

 

[devo6786]

Its doing well now that Ive hooked up the inline fan! High of 83 low of 72
