Come Grow With Me: A Beginners Guide

I just sold 2 of them for $150 ea. a couple of days ago to upgrade. Waiting on the TS 3000 to see if I want 2 more of them or the FC Models. I am sticking with Mars though as I like their lights.
I bin looking at TS 3000 but just to much ££ ATM just need to keep upgrading my stuff with a humidity n temp controller work on my inlet an outlet?? To slow down because my theory is if can slow it down heat stay
in bit more plus be warmer air getting pulled in instead of it making it cold as going thou fan I've got a temp thing but haven't used it or set it up comes up with idol and stuff

Where do you get Intake air from ? Just take that from in the attic. I'm sure fresh air gets up there.
Is the attic air real cold too ? You should be able to use a controller. Plug intake in one outlet & the exhaust on the other & set both Work 1 & Work 2 for the same high & low temps. Then the fans should only turn on when it gets above or below the temps you set the controller for. You can plug both fans in same controller. Thing is it sounds like it never gets too hot so it would never shut the fans off. You should buy 1 of the Pelonis space heaters from Walmart. Cost like $10. I have 1 & that thing will heat 3 rooms hot as F'. Just a little 10" x 12" heater but it's bad ass.

I get air from my landing throu loft hatch so it's clean air with are co2 of you get what I mean but yes it's well cold up there I've insulated have an doc covered the other half but o will be ripping all down after this one and redoing it just to keep heat in abit more in attic bin looking at another heater but thinking a mars tsw2000 will heat up abit more it's doing no harm with temps but will do alot better warmer and IL set up tonight we'll have a play se what I can do with it never used before lol
 
@Ljb1 Not sure if you've already thought about it or if it will even be a factor but keep heat signature in mind. If you end up warming the roof up enough to melt frost/snow in a patch on your roof it can be a dead giveaway that somethings going on in there. Hope you manage to figure out the balance bringing your costs down whilst maintaining temps.

Edited to add the tag. Forgot which thread we were on again. :laugh:

Good Point. I don't think of those things living in the desert & never seeing snow. I'm not even sure a copter could read heat temps inside my shed when it's 117 F outside.
 
OK ya'all, Are you ready to start growing ? Guess you wouldn't be riding the 420 Mag train if you weren't. Anyway, I'm going to keep this real simple while providing pics & details from start to finish. I'll be posting & adding pics throughout the day.
Today I'll be putting up the tent & all the necessary equipment. It's just a small 3' x 3' x 6' tent & I'm only doing 1 plant (Peyote Wi-Fi).
I'll be assembling the tent in a few minutes so I'll add pics. Hopefully this little grow will help some of the new guys out. My average is 9 oz. per plant; but I'm shooting for a 12 oz. grow this time & I'll be cloning along the way for those interested in that. I'm looking to grow this plant in the same manner I grew this one.

If I happen to run into issues somewhere or are unable to answer your question I do know the right people to call on for the correct answer.
So I'll see you all soon as I get this tent up & we'll get Rockin'.
Justr so you know, your photo is now my screen saver, my aspiration!
 
I wish 420 would allow a forum where growers could resell merch. I wonder why they don't?


I've wondered that also.
Good evening Buds and DRey.

My guess is that sponsors would lose money. They pay for the right to sell their fixtures here. It would conflict with the led guidelines.
Same reason they don't allow private seed sales.
How many growers here could undercut the seed banks?

It makes sense & I understand their reasoning. At the same time I look at the restrictions of not being able to mention certain products by name that you are using for your grow kind of silly. The "Right to Freedom of speech" needs to be removed from our constitution as there is No Such Thing ! You just can't say anything, anywhere, anymore. The "W" football team proves my point.
 
Hey guys, got a few pics of the little one. She's 6 today & she got her 1st real food this morning. Yes, I'm starting to feed already. But it's a really weak mix of .7 gr. per gal. I'll go up to 1 gr. per gallon in a couple days. Here's a few pics with root shots too.
