very very nice setup....looks like you put your work in i'm expanding with my next grow too. can't wait to have a setup similar to yours

 

[4u2sm0ke]

okay not much to post..just wanted to adddthat test ran the "Male Chamber" after some modification with exhaust...I put some tape over the grill cover on the exhaust fan, as well as the lower grill....I was able to keep my temps at 78...thats with the temps at 56 outside...I know it will be diffrent in the winter and feel I will be able to get the temps corrected at that time...I know I wont need to run this for 8 weeks...just long enough to get the pollen then He will be buried...well this is all I have for now...


KEEP M GREEN

i like the looks of that male chamber. looks like you got it under control.. the only thing i would have done was mounted my lights on the top. with those light being mounted to the side it will be a job tryin to keep the males limbs out of those unless you can move the lights as needed. besides that it looks like my flower box with mylar instead of white paint.. as for temps i think your lights will keep your temps up durin the cold winter.. try running the lights at night while the temps are real low

is this small box in the same room with your other plants?

Hey 4u2, this is my first time stoppin' in on your grow...And at the moment, i'm actually just speechless...That's just such a great grow room, i'll have to check w/ you if i ever decide to go indoors...From the sound of it tho, i'm gonna love watching this grow...I've not seen too many Bubblegum grows, and Big Bud never gets old imo...Can't wait to see what clones ya end up w/ ...

in the winter you can just stick a small thermostaticly controled heater in there. In my micro cabinet I had one for last winter, the box was out in my un-heated pole barn. I could hear the heater come on every 15 minutes or so for 1 minute and it worked great. It never would come on when the lights were running, just when they shut off and temps dropped. it got down in the teens a few times and the box stayed warm. The heater has 4 or 5 temp settings with a fan, can't remember were it is or I would tell you the brand.

edit: I had it set at 65, the only problem I had was when the power would go off or have a power burp, then the heater would shut off and not come back on automatically. I had to remember to reset it whenever we had power problems. I will have to find a bigger one this winter for my room.

I was able to go into shed today and modify HPS..I hope to spred lite out more by flexing the reflector out a bit....and get Flower room ready for Grow..

Temps in there are in the 90...as you can see...I do run lights at night and will be okay..I hope:angrywife: ...May even add another 250cfm exhaust in ther..just picked up at Garbage sale down the street in the other town...looked like a bust of a Rental and Owners selling off stuff...also picked up a roll of milar...FREE..lol..ohwell I can Ramble for hours...Cant wait for Sept ..only Lady in there now is on the Callander..and she aint that Hot..IMO..

hey puff thanks for stoping in...I am not woried about the cold in winter when males apear..they are males and only stay alive long enough to get pollen...doesnt get below 38 here in winter..I do Have a heater in shed that helps when needed..but have yet to use it...If i did not Have Younge ones at home I would heat My house in winter...Save lots of $$$$...but The shed was available and i ran with it...and Here I am
