I can grow for my own as long as theyre outside of public view so they can suck it though. Its not like there I think.

Just mount the light direct to the metal tent support if you have to. I've done this many times in the past lmao.I have 2 75W LED bulbs for the girls if they get too close to the light. Those bulbs are not gonna burn them but it will greatly diminish my yield so pray for me that they dont grow much more hahaha.
Yes I thought about it and will do it if necessary before swaping to the LED bulbs. They dont have many more days to grow but since it was too hot I had to dimm the lights a little bit and in 2 days they skyrocketed. Now the heat is gone theyre back to 100%. Mind that Im using 130W LEDs in there so I might get away with it too, hopefully. Ill pray for both of usJust mount the light direct to the metal tent support if you have to.

Will prob be doing that myself with one of the panels within the week. You can also get very effective 100 actual watts dimmable full spectrum panels on eBay for like $30-40usd now too. Would give you better options to avoid burning if canopy gets too close.
since when do skunks smell like blueberries?I love the smell of weed, my front door stays open and i got a nice screen door i smell it on my porch when my tent's in flower. Heck my backyard is smelling like blueberry now. All we need is a little skunk to walk by![]()
and blame it on them.
Just got an Apple fritter goin! I have Royal Gorilla, Trop cookie purple, and Triple G runnin one at a time to see which I like best while I’m in my other runs then eventually I’ll fill a tent with emToday I will do the defoliation. Its been more than a year since Ive grown fat banana from @RoyalQueenSeeds and it was about time. I know it can be delicate sometimes so hopefully they will be able to handle the big defoliationIm gonna remove everything below the net (see picture above to see what will remain). Will post the results today.
Small indoors start of 2nd week of flower.

No doubt, in late flower or dry even I can smell my tents as soon as I step in my front door, and that’s with a 6” carbon filter on it. Up until week 6 the house is odorless but those last 2 weeks and through dry I make sure we have a bunch of glade plugins all over the house until I can smell cinnamon apple from the roadNeither do I, but in your case is much worsemy neighboors already make comments when they pass in front of my house about the smell during flower, youre probably scenting the whole neighborhood

What i do is keep the used ones for smaller grows, I have to replace yearly too, only so the house dosent stink (kids) I could just exhaust outside but I like a faily closed up lung room so I’m not always pulling in new contaminants to the room, so like my old 4” spiderfarmer filter I threw on my 2x2x32” tent with that single cman x okie and it’ll handle that but couldn’t do the full 4x4 like when it was newApple and cinamon? I have to try Apple Fritter hahaha. I used to use a carbon filter but had to change it every year and theyre not cheap so Im trying to save for a refillable one now. Id rather buy the carbon myself ends up being cheaper, I cant afford to change filters every year.
Police likes to let you know theyre watching sometimes hahaha its probably a "dont go too far" call of attention.
Holly molly 100 plants? How many years in prison if you know? He didnt know that police use helicopters every so often to see those? Or did he have a greenhouse?
The sheriff has some cuts going for him? Hahaha
I actually have my last 2 carbon filters saved. Im hoping that with time the smells will dissipate and I will be able to use them again. An air blower would be fantastic but I lack one. I can shake them from time to time, I didnt think about that.What i do is keep the used ones for smaller grows, I have to replace yearly too, only so the house dosent stink (kids) I could just exhaust outside but I like a faily closed up lung room so I’m not always pulling in new contaminants to the room, so like my old 4” spiderfarmer filter I threw on my 2x2x32” tent with that single cman x okie and it’ll handle that but couldn’t do the full 4x4 like when it was new
I make use of em
Also! I take them outside and blow them out with my air compressor, slam em a few times to loosten up the carbon, blow air through, both ways in and out and I’ve gotten an extra few months ours some that way as wel, worth a shot
I also do it after about 6 months just to blow dust out of em to improve the airflow
If you’re running a single LED light (even a 1kw) I wouldn’t worry at all really maybe a 1k HPS / MH but I’d really only worry if it was in my attic and melting snow off a spesific part of my roof, otherwise with the heat concentrated in one small area they could confuse it with a space heater, furnace location, anything so it’s harder to pinpoint it to a grow, I did think about it and it was one of the reasons I was running 2 tents at about the same power on alternating schedules, they can’t go by oh they are running a timer on a light cliff you’re constantly pulling the same power 24/7Led in no way has anywhere near the same detectable heat signature as hps.
That kinda changed the game, and I was able to stop walling my grow areas with 3/4 inch
Foam board.
You can even place those panels over the spot the lights footprint would be seen.If you’re running a single LED light (even a 1kw) I wouldn’t worry at all really maybe a 1k HPS / MH but I’d really only worry if it was in my attic and melting snow off a spesific part of my roof, otherwise with the heat concentrated in one small area they could confuse it with a space heater, furnace location, anything so it’s harder to pinpoint it to a grow, I did think about it and it was one of the reasons I was running 2 tents at about the same power on alternating schedules, they can’t go by oh they are running a timer on a light cliff you’re constantly pulling the same power 24/7
but eventually I realized, I’m runnin 800w and my tent is only 80f and surrounding area is 76-78, there not pinpointing that. Bump that up to 2-3k watts of pwer and start running dehus and ac’s things start lookin funky to electric providers (if you’re in an illegal state)
What I always figured was if I ever up to say 2-3 1000w lights I’m installing just enough solar panels to run the grow and keep it off grid,
