Rule #1 Obey the wife always or else.That thing the wife telling you what to do is what you've always wanted. ......there are no other ruled class treated so well as us.for some odd reason, my other half doesn't like lavender and rosemary. but she allows me to grow my 'beans'. what the...?
it's like a straight out 'no', no room for any debate. and there i am thinking about potpourri.....
inconsistent messages, she commandeered the lemon balm and basil, got her own ideas. i tried to explain even a theme-based kitchen/herb garden - i'm into fragrance and culinary, while she is mainly into culinary and flowers. it matters not at this moment, as long as these plants gets bigger & this herb garden gets larger in number of different plants.
i am going to shirk this issue for a while, buy everything but lavender and rosemary. thinking of starting off with lemon-scented herb garden - but gonna buy some mints this week.
i'm thinking one of us is drunk....and the other one needs to get drunk. i didn't realise i was in the bad books. i have no logical counterargument, it simply doesn't make any sense to me, unless i'm really drunk, maybe.
Lemon Balm (perennial) is great also, and keeps the mosquitos away.[
yup, i'm into herbs. thought about setting up a herb/kitchen garden for ages, regardless of this odour issue. so, its a side project, which is also now a project within my grow, a project which suddenly has more momentum.
plan is to go to a nursery tomorrow....
My seeds have cracked and are set my pots n soil mix is flushed and ready to go in 2 weeks time , I’m further south and we have got snow n frost predicted so I’ll get my seedlings under my skylight in my grow shed for know . Running 4 x Very Cherry ,2 x Strawberry Lights 2x Guiding Lights . Od .this sort of shit interests me...

Spring Equinox 2020 in Southern Hemisphere will be at 11:30 pm on Tuesday , 22 September
for me, its an indication to start to plant out for the upcoming outdoor season.
WRITE down what you need then get TWO of everything. I bought a Hitachi air puifier it is nothing short of amazing. Just plug and play. The ozone generator (free) also puts out a sterile odor....drying time here....better than crying..okay, it's no longer something which can be left on the backburner. Bogged, lost all momentum, left to get to this point where it now requires immediate attention and action. its being bugging me, now it's time to tackle this odour issue.
the dimensions of my small tent is 2' (W) x 2' (L) x 6' (H) = 24 cubic feet. The air flow requirements, approximately 160 CFM - exchanging the air within the g-tent every 2 minutes.

Given this raw data, Phresh Carbon Filter 4" x 12" (with its 200 CFM) rating would do the job. But i find 4" an awkward size to handle, so i decided to go 6" size instead.
and this is something i run into a lot with all my hobbies - i found it hard to source these products, running into out-of-stock. eventually, i bought a Phresh 150 mm x 300 mm carbon filter, expect delivery end of the week.
this isn't the end of the story, onto the next topic which I dislike - choice of 150 mm exhaust fan. any recommendations, there?
i need other bits & pieces for this setup, 6" clamps, maybe ducting, ducting tape, get 'em during the week.
Walk away from the edge Wallyi culled one of the older plants from my garden, its not something i like doing.
i had placed this plant more than a month ago, into the living room, protected from the late winter conditions - but she started to bud, and emit stronger smell.
she wasn't going to produce much, so she was sacrificed for the greater cause, even for security measures. her small immature buds into a brown paper bag, to dry.
this is what pushed me over the edge, when i pulled out my wallet today, and bought a carbon filter. though this carbon filter is to be setup for the tent, rather than those plants growing in the lounge room.
one step at a time.
Seriously get a handle on the odor mgt program w/2 tokin tents. Get the wife to give you $ for all the parts, then wake up cobba....one step back from the edge, now.
looking for a 150 mm exhaust fan to pair with this carbon filter might throw me over this edge. another topic area, i get bogged down, not going anywhere fast, close to going bananas again.
still got a few other things to figure out - what 150 mm exhaust fan, what fan controller (variac?) and what setup exactly? ok, the carbon filter is to be placed outside the tent, and that's where its at.
it seems unrelated, i'm starting to hunt for a second & larger tent - to neaten up this odour management.
Better get something to eatAC Infinity AI-CLT6KT Cloudline T6 is out of the question, i could only source one retailer and it's an arm & leg.

AC Infinity Cloudline T4 is half the price, and again I could only source one retailer. this is the brickwall we Aussies run into in our small domestic market. i'm wary of ordering electronic goods from overseas.
i almost bought the T4 last night, as i got this 100 mm carbon filter - but i remember i backed off with this purchase. the T4 is rated just over 200 CFM, so i figured it would be running at its 100% settings - maybe the T4 is not adequate. and again, because of the scarcity of these products here - i'm looking elsewhere.
shit.
