thanks for stopping by si1984.

get comfy! -- i will be updating as much as possible.

hope everything goes well -- im kinda concerned about the size of my LR #2 (Seems really small... compare to other journals)

 

[herbal.experience]

Looks like all that reading was worth it.
Off to a good start!
LR #2 does have some short phenos - you might have one there or maybe it's just a little slow.

reading was definitely worth it buddha.

you can never have too much information -- specially about the medicine.

hopefully this LR #2 starts growing -- she is starting to worry me. (no worries though.. only time will tell)

quick picture update for everyone!

quick question for everyone -- regarding the pc fan.

current temp WITH AC ON @ 64
- all 4 lights ON
- side panel closed = 84 degrees

current temp WITH AC O
- all 4 lights ON
- side panel closed = 90 degrees

i know 76-86 is ideal (closer to 76 if possible) .. but i really dont want to have the AC running that cold all night..

-------

the ac/dc adapter is rated at 12v 2A
- currently running 3 pc fans @ .16ma each (160 x 3 = 480ma)

im looking to add a couple of fans / maybe replacing my exhaust with higher CFMs

http://www.ebay.com/itm/270977126404?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
- rated at 170ma per fan

if my calculation is correct -- i would be able to add 3 more of those fans (from the link) = 6 fans total with my adapter @ full speed?

current: 160ma x3 = 480ma
+
future fan purchase: 170ma x 3 = 510ma

510ma + 480ma = 990ma.

2A - 990ma = 1010ma remaining?

thoughts?
