*UPDATE*

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 17, 2012

In TENT 3, my plant count was off. On one side we have 3 Black Jack in about 10-15 gallons of soil(20 gal pot a little more than halfway full), 1 Kandy Kush, and 1 Black Jack in a 5 gallon bucket. On the other side I have 3 Kandy Kush, 3 Wifi(White Fire OG), 2 Cannatonic, and 1 Black Jack. All are in 3 gallon pots with SUPER drainage.

Today I took all the plants out of TENT 3 and sprayed with diluted Serenade due to small amounts of Powdery Mold. In my experience Serenade works for the first 2 or 3 days, but if conditions aren't corrected, it comes back. The PM came from the plants being too crowded and a lack of airflow, so I gave them some long needed attention and removed old leaves, tucked, and trained as needed. Everything looks pretty good now. I need some fans in here, I just cant think of how/where to hang/mount them....any suggestions?

Should I replace the T-5 with the same hood and bulb as the one next to it?
Also, how can I implement CO2 without wasting a lot of money? I don't want to load a room full of CO2 only to have to exhaust it all. I can't seal my tent because I can't afford to put an AC in it. I'd love a cheap workaround. Any feedback/help/criticism is appreciated.

Great job thanks for sharing too :)

For pm drop the serenade and pick up a sulphur based spray

Co2 check out The Boost Bucket

Looking forward to some flower shots
