Yup we got off topic a bit in places but there still lots of learning going on here. As doc and myself are still at early stages of the plants life there's not much to touch on. Every once and awhile I'll update journal bringing all docs info forward. Yeah we talked about lights and electrical all good info related to growing. Yes not related not docs kit but still very helpful. As the plants start to really take off the bullshiting will probably slow and the info will pick up.
Sorry you have to read through our bullshitting while we kill time.
I like the BS...that's why i stay,..just like Hook just said. The info is all here...in real, live time
I can understand HF's point...but...the banter along the way, is part of the reason that I luv this site...it offers friendships, and opportunities to connect to produce quality herb...distractions aside...there is a lot of good knowledge being put forth...cheerz..h00k...
....Hook, ..top of the day to ya sir....
I agree and my comment was not intended to be abrasive, I love this place good folks with lots of knowledge and having fun along the way,
Just most of the threads intended for learning with doc in the title gets extremely lengthy
Yes , your very correct HF, the majority of threads get very lengthy and there is a lot of BS along the way. Please keep in mind , this is real time and gets very boring at times, as has been mentioned too. I'm sure Scotia and Doc will occasionally bring info forward for a review. Please stick around, things will/are getting fun. My grow is presently just a week or so ahead of Doc's and Scotia's , so i will be staying close by.
Have a great Sunday HF..
I've been working on it. Just don't want to resort to adding heater cause then I believe my rh will drop out of range. Maybe I'll try my oil filled heater. Not sure if they dry out the air that much
Ya, i had to add thew heater, do every winter,..no choice . Would rather have my temps at 68-75 than 65-70.
That little Huey i set up last night needs water every 6 hrs. or so...big fuggin PITA! It raises the RH asbout 3-5 points...big deal...bahhh.
Have a great day bud!
Was just thinking while fighting to get back my few degrees that this new light won't give out .Typically I'd have a speed controller hooked to exhaust fan. But cause I have a max fan pro it had built in speed controller so I had it on the min fan setting. Never thought to hook another speed controller to that to slow it down even more.
No,..don't do it. That built in speed controller is pre set at that lowest speed for a very good reason. If you run the fan much slower than that you will burn out the windings,..especially the start winding. I recommend adding a speed controller to growers ,..but run it at between 65-85%. I also advise to buy a bigger fan/filter combo than is necessary for your space. That way you don't have to always have the fan screaming away , being loud, and generally harder on it. But not too slow , just dial it down some . If you understand just how our carbon filters work , you can get a much longer life span out of them if you run the fan at those reduced speeds.Cheers bud!
Anytime you raise the temp. your humidity is going to fall. The warmer the air, the more moisture it will hold. It's not that the heater is drying out the air it's just that the air can hold more water so your RELATIVE humidity drops. 50% relative humidity at 75 degrees will fall to a lower relative humidity when the temp goes up. Same amount of moisture in the room it's just that 80 degrees (or whatever) can hold more water so your relative humidity drops. I think we are really looking for the best vapor pressure density (google it). This is why we fight PM. When the lights go off, the room temp drops and the relative humidity shoots up quick causing the right conditions for PM. A dehumidifier is a must at lights off. I hope that made sense.
Spoken like an AC Mechanic/Technician would......thanks for that Neiko!
