It is now 102 in the veg room and 101 in the budroom, I been running at 85 to 88 with the a/c on all week. It has been over 100 all week. I think today is the last of it for a week or so. But It sure is hot in there. 1200 cfm moving air out should keep them doing fine though, passive intake.
Now I need a cheap room A/C unit I guess.

Im a medical grower my landlord knows- the sheriff has documented my grow and he took pictures.. I will never supply the rat ass clubs in cali. So i dont worry about getting busted anymore.

Yeah that, or a 6000 btu for $120.00 at lowes.
Probly get the cheapo now ,and a better one when i can afford it. I need to register my truck and that's $290.00....
Money should be here anytime now to cover it, but It is a front for future work- gotta make it last...
102 isnt too bad really, gotta water daily though.
late l.o.l.

Dont get a 6000 BTU unless is a very small room. try at least a 7500 or 8000 BTU. Home depot got good prices too on A.C .

had trouble a while back, hitting 100f in the veg room! got them in the flower room now, and with the new extractor fan fitted even on really hot days its only peaked at 88f so far :)

Turned out there was apparrently too much slack in the supply line. The hot wire grounded out and burned up- and melted the wirenut. I removed the burned slack, and put on a new wire nut. Flipped on the breaker- and turned on the a/c. It works fine now that it has power again.
Thank god- I can't just run out and get a new one- good thing i fixed the one i have.

I made a big mistake of not getting with the program around 1991 - 92. of course my job would had made it a deadly mix . i kick my self in the ass for not doing it a close friend was. beside all kinds of nice things. in 1997 they bought 2 x 1100 Yamaha Jetski . close to $19.000 "not fully paid" this would had been dumb. The room was about 12x 12 give or take maybe 14x14 max .

The A.C wall unit was 10.500 BTU but they also had a central unit and a "Train " brand at that.
