TGR’s High Elevation Grow Journey

[Grownsince95]

Says it produces up to 500 W max! For 175 bucks!

I'm suspicious lol

 

[Greenadian]

Yeah, thats a little fella I believe. On the right track!

I hijacked this thread again I'm sorry I'll wait until @TheGoldenRoad chimes in.

@TheGoldenRoad may be having a quick nap in the Doobie Den!!

Is this is dumb idea?

Do you think I could cool down air at least 10° doing something like this?

You got my house tapped or what?!

I thought of a very similar idea last night lol. The design I’m going to use will have a vent riser with a cap that makes a big “U” and feeds the intake supply from underneath. Same idea, different shape.

 

[TheGoldenRoad]

Looks like a good idea to me, depending on time of the year. If you are drawing air from outside thats 80° I don't see ot cooling to 55° by the time it enters your growroom

That’s where it’s going to be finding a balance with the airflow. If it’s 80 outside and there is a slow draw of air strong enough to reduce temps in the shed, that 80 degree air should come out somewhere around 72 degrees dependent on the depth of the pipe. Not having the intake vent pipe in the direct sun is key too.

 

[TheGoldenRoad]

I was counting on a strong back! Shit...

So you think a 25' long 5' deep 1' wide trench is too much to dig by hand....fuck now that you put it that way...

I only really want to cool it to 68-70

Home Depot sells trenching shovels.

You’re good.

Man don’t I wish. Had to go to Ridgecrest this morning. It was 92 degrees already when I left. This summer’s forecast isn’t looking great

 

[TheGoldenRoad]

Probably just wants to get it down to 70! I don’t know if that short of run can do it! Just speaking for myself, I think that is trencher material!

I’m going the Ditch Witch route myself. Homie don’t dig in the clay.

 

[Greenadian]

Sweet Jesus thats hot!!!

 

[TheGoldenRoad]

Sweet Jesus thats hot!!!

For Ridgecrest that’s warm haha. Normal summer temps are easily over 100 every day there.

Fucking perfect!

Thanks for tagging along and welcome!

This is my first grow log and I’m excited to see what transpires. Huge thanks to everyone on here for a wealth of knowledge.

Special thanks to @Captspaulding for the Cali Blues and @FloridaMike for the Northern Lights and Hashplant.

For this grow I’m using a combination of soils due to the unavailability of more than 2 of anything up here. I’m using ProMix Organic, Mother Earth Groundswell, and G&B Blue Ribbon Organic. I’m not an organic grower so whatever medium is available at that time all becomes Mega Crop in the end

For Veg, I’ll be using Greenleaf Nutrients Mega Crop. For Bloom, I’ll be using a combination of Mega Crop, Sea-K, Sweet Candy, Bud Explosion, and I have CalMag always at the ready.

The light used for the Hashplant solely will be a Phlizon PH-D6, which was so graciously provided by @PhlizonGrowLight. The rest will receive their illumination from the Phlizon FD-4000.

As you can see, I’m trying my hand at Mainlining with all of the plants except for the Northern Lights. Those gals will simply grow without training the way they were intended.

Very nice setup my guy!

Very nice setup my guy!

Thank you very much

 

[TheGoldenRoad]

Fucking perfect!

You would do well in the Palm Desert. That damn heat is too much. I take it like a champ though. It’s better than the winter with RA.

 

[Oldchucky]

Yeah, Palm Desert would be great! Well, maybe! The monsoon moisture that comes up from Mexico is the Achilles’ heel down there! No moisture up here till mid October! And I think bear Water nailed it when he ran electricity to hisgrow shed! Alternative energy is still way too iffy and expensive to depend on! Bear is living large now! if you want to dig a trench, run some conduit and a water line through it!

Did you read the news? Something in excess of $500,000,000,000.00 in lithium was discovered underneath the Salton Cesspool… err Salton Sea shoulda never got rid of our land out there.

 

[TheGoldenRoad]

Scientists find 18 million tons of 'white gold' beneath California's Salton Sea worth $540 billion: Report

Salton Sea is noted as the largest lake in California, and the discovery of lithium or "white gold" will prove to be a revolutionary find for the battery industry.

[Oldchucky]

Yeah, I saw that! It’s the new gold rush! I am really happy for any of the salton sea denizens that managed to make out on that! That’s a hard-core bunch out there and they deserve a break! that area has been a victim of the water grab of the LA basin for a long time! I hope they get the last laugh! I still can’t stand tilapia! used to Dove hunt out in niland! Watch the tracers going down range at night at the chocolate Mountain gunnery range!
