Pink Kush Comes Home.

Hello. This will be the end of week 7 and the beginning of week 8. I think I'll flower for another week because of the lower temp. I normally flower for 8 weeks and flush for 2 weeks. Everything in the grow room is going great. The buds aren't as big as I was hoping but they are crystal covered : ) If your just checking me out please read week 1 for the whole story. >Clones and Seedlings- are doing well and have gotten over their cloning stress. The seedlings are Purple Paralysis from Cream of the Crop. >Ventilation Fan- When I first started growing I had a 4 inch dryer tube/pipe with a 4 inch disk fan inside the tube. It was good for 4 plants. When I decided to grow more plants in the same space I got powdery mildew. I fought it for awhile but ended up getting a 8 inch inline fan in a 6 inch tube/pipe. I got it home and all hooked up. It was much too much air. I called and asked if I could in a dimmer switch and he wouldn't recommend it. He also thought it would shorten the life of the fan. I have had the fan running almost non stop for about 20 years. The fan is a little weaker, I have to turn the dimmer switch a little higher these days to get the same suction. In the winter the fan is turned way down/almost off. In the summer the fan works at about 2/3 power. It works great. I found that I could control the relative humidity by taking off some large fan leaves and adjusting the fan. I've had a dehumidifier for about the last 3 years. Good Luck. Chuck.
