Bubba Kush 400w Stealth Grow Tent

[greenguy]

Thanks for the encouraging words fellas...greatly appreciated!

I put the tent inside the cab because I didn't feel like I would be able to control the smell very well with just the cab

blower is pretty powerful and is keeping temps down around 82F...not as low as I thought, need to find a way to get fresh air into the tent but good for now.

Plants haven't reacted much to being put in a bigger pot, dosed with nutes and put under 400w hps??? usually when I water them the next morning you can tell they have responded positively...hopikng the get used to the new conditions soon

alpha- plants are from clones at my local medi mJ spot. I just keep my towells on top of the cab to hide the ventilation.

 

[greenguy]

temps got up to 91 degrees = I have a problem

gonna have to fix this by changing my ventilation, gonna be a head scratcher

 

[greenguy]

So I solved the problem with a homemade splitter, its keeping temps at around 81 degrees. Now I am sucking air out the grow tent and into the room, eventually I will pick up a real splitter from the hydro shop and add a carbon filter.

Plants were looking a little better, but still haven't responded as well as I had hoped to the bigger light and bigger container...in time I suppose

I used some hanger wire to train the plants and encourage more bud sites for the SCROG to come

Temps got up to 88 degrees today when I left for the afternoon...I am realizing now that the bigger issue is that the ducting that exhales hot air from my grow is not being vented outside of the room in which the grow cab is in. When I come home from work I notice the room is pretty warm. I have an AC unit that will keep the room cool from now on.

Second feeding tonight with FF nutes!

Girls are responding well to their new home...temps staying below 85F. New problem is that the blower I am using is a little too loud for my taste and I am looking into options to keep the noise down. (any suggestions would be appreciated!)

been working with some LST to keep size manageable...planning to topping bud sites once more and then adding SCROG

What up, plants are looking great. I know that heat is a big issue with that small of a space and all i can suggest is keep the room the cabs in cool, i would also ad a intake fan to push in some more cool air and maybe just a circulation fan if you don't have one already.
Currently on my 400w cab i'm running 2 bathroom fans because the noise from 1 4" duct fan was a little too loud (couldn't imagine the 6" duct fan being much better), the bathroom fans are much more quit IMHO.
And don't be too discouraged about not seeing much growth, once the temp hits 85+ degrees weed plants will get stunted and grow very slowly or not at all. But if you can get the temp problem sorted out then the next time you feed they should take off.
Just a couple of thoughts.

:evilgrin0031:Whats up bro im stopping by to peep the grow its looking good to me looks like the training is paying off and i hate temp issues no matter the room theres always some fine tuning for sure my suggestion would puting a 4inch hole in your ceiling if its just standard dry wall and vent it into your crawl space its not that much added heat so there shouldnt be any problems with doing that it will just leak out the roof vents it wont cost much to patch later and that way you can be getting that air completely out of the room i would also suggest at least one more clip fan to circulate the air inside around a little more and im not sure what kind of blower you are using i didnt see it in the pics but if you dont like your blower u could alway use it as an intake and set it on a timer at 15 on and 15 off that way u dont always hear it but you could still use it and then you could get a 4inch inline fan i got a valueline for like $65 and i got a can fan high output that was like $160 i say get the valuline anyway the inlines are about as quiet as your gonna get for moving real air and then that could be the exhaust fan to vent the room and light into the crawl space and to better help your plants with the higher temps you can add a exhale natural co2 bag there $25-$30 and are supposed to last up to 6 months id say 2-3 but either way i use them and they do work also you can hit them with b-1 after you get the temps more stable to help them get over the stress and you can feed with a silica supplement that helps boost the tolerance to higher temps or try adding a cool mist humidifier on a timer anyway just a few suggestions hope they help im sure you will get some some danky nugs of them homie ill be checking back in
PEACE

Flipping to 12/12 tonight

Interested in seeing your yields... But it appears to me like you may get alot of larf from your setup that is, unless you're still planning on ScrOG-ing.

 

[caregiverken]

Nice work Greenguy. Those look really healthy.
Growster has a point. You may want to prune some lower growth. Maybe?

I think you may be right...lately Ive been wishing I would have done just one or two plants with a SCROG...I have been scared recently that I may overgrow my space so I went out and bought a net (see pic below) to sorta hold'em down a bit, I felt a little overgrown at this point for SCROG

I have been wondering how much I can cut away fan leaves without causing the plant harm? I would like to cut away a bunch of the under brush and some larger fan leaves that are covering bud sites ect... what do you guys think should I thin my girls out???

Day 2 of 12/12

 

[OctoberDee]

Looks great GG. Maybe thin out the bottom stems and leaves and tuck leaves under some of the taller lower under developed stems. Those tall tops that are hidden under leaves will turn into some nice nugs. I would say don't go too crazy plucking because your plant seems to be doing well, why mess with it. Just my opinion. Awesome little spot!

 

[MarijuanaBaybee]

yeah it looks like u doin hella good RULE#12934843983460y6609 dont eva eva eva eva pluk to many leafs of em.. what i usualy do is that if a big ass leaf is covering a budsite i just remove it and leave the rest alone for the most part(the most water leafs that i remove from the plant is 5 to 10 leafs a day per plant tops. and then i leave them alone for another 3 days and then hit again and remove no more than 5 to 10 big leafs). i havent gotten down like alot of the other farmers on here but i was thot this trik by an old man thats been doin it longet than ive been alive so his word is golden to me and his advice never let me down just my 2centavos

 

[GhostFace]

cut away some of that xtra leaf..i thin out all threw veg and all threw flower and my plants are just fine..many other people do this as well with no side FX

 

[greenguy]

Trimmed my girls a bit yesterday...looking clean after their hair cuts!
