It's just a happy little plant so far. Following the instructions for this line of nutrients has me stressed. I quit looking at the ph and it just keeps growing

@Harpua88 Not hardly. And to prove it, everything else on the bench is what I intentionally put there to show off. Everything except the gun, what makes me laugh is that it bothered you enough to even mention it. I'm willing to bet you're either a bleeding heart liberal, or a limey

Seems like you're proving my point. ;)
Admins? Do we have a legal age limit as to who can participate in this forum? Seems as though we have 2 underage members..........

Dummybuds, How are you liking the Hydrobucket? I almost bought 4 the other day, but ouch, $75 for 1 bucket is a killer.
They are badass. They make DWC growing so easy its unreal. I highly recommend them, where are you ordering them from? I got 2 for $90. But I'm not using their lids. I wasn't sure I'd like them

I hate to say this but that AC is not nearly as sealed as it appears. It will leak air through the body like no other. Once you run your CO2 you will see this.

I’m running a dual split whynter AC as well. I hate it. Before I modified my AC the C02 only lasted a week if that. I was able to get the C02 to last for 2-3 weeks before it ran out once I sealed it up more. My room is less than 30sqft.

Look at the back of you AC unit. There is a filter, this filter pulled air over it. All your precious CO2 and odor literally out the window.

I actually had the same thought, so what I did to test it, I fill the room to 1500ppm, ran the ac for 2 days, and have a c02 monitor right where the exhaust vent blows out, my basement c02 is 536ppm, it never budged, so I took the c02 line to the monitor, and hit the valve, my monitor immediately picked it up, so I turned the ac on to see if maybe the air was moving to fast to monitor the exhaust, and hit the valve, and it immediately picked it up, so im gonna lean to maybe you got a faulty unit?

Also, my ac doesn't run very often, my room stays pretty cool, it runs for maybe 2-5 minutes an hour

It’s possible but I have two different whynter dual splits to test and it’s a common issue if you search around. Some people crack them open and seal off the areas that leak. I did something similar.

Throw something realllllly stinky in your room and stand near the exhaust port.

When you did your test did you have the lights on full blast and a Dehum running?That should generate some heat. Make sure you’re not skewing your results by standing in the room generating C02. My AC doesn’t really get a workout until I’m in flowering.
