I like Duckduckgo for its Canada button. When I'm looking for shit up here I get all usa sites with .com but the Canada button gives me the .ca results first. It doesn't give me movies in a format I like ...like google does.
Lol, it’s not just for Canada but I use it too. Mostly when looking to buy something.

I often type in action/Scifi/Adventure or Historic movies 20?? -2025 to see if there's anything we want to watch. Once I find a movie we want to watch I go to a site I use and search for it. 99% of the time the movies are available.
It’s rare I search for movies or shows anymore. G$ will tell me about one or two on one of the streaming platforms we have but inevitably it’s not on the Canadian version. I went to the trouble of finding the Resident Alien series but it was the first time in a while.

I have their browser too but rarely use it. its Chrome based and doesn't have the adblockers & popup blockers I use, I really only use it to check web sites that don't work well with firefox to see if its my blockers that are causing the problem.
Duckduckgo was based off Firefox, at least originally, I think, but I might be confusing it with Tor. But I haven’t checked in a long time. Might have changed. The iPhone version is locked down and you can’t harden it as much.

Tor isn’t as easy to use on iPhone either. But it was my main browser on windows and Linux for years.

We watch a movie or 2 tv shows every night. I watched some of the first season of Resident alien but I thought it more suited top kids or those that have kids. After I google for a show I put it in here to see if they have it, if not I have another couple sites I go to. This one has a few porn popups and others if you don't use the adblocks even then I get some gross ones I have to close out fast.

I'll be 10 weeks in flower tomorrow, 1 more week and I'm done. I may even cut the Grape Skunk early, she is looking close. My Alaska Thunderfuck stands out as my best plant this run, A nice sweet citric & pungent A close second is the Zamelda Dreams. very sweet sticky and citric smelling.

I need to get my feed down before I chop any, I'm still feeding a bit heavy to cut now I fed 3/3/3/8/4/1ml/gal Cal/mag, Micro,Grow,Bloom,Diamond Nectar Hyclean, I'll drop to 2/2/2/4/2/1 Wednesday, Then water and Hyclean only after that.Oct 26 atf2.JPGOct 26 ATF4.JPGOct 26 Grape Skunk 1.JPGOct 26 Zam Dreams 2.JPGOct 26 Zam Dreams 3.JPG

Now you’re just showing off…😝

Beautiful buds man. Beefy.
 
Looks like it could help?
How do plan to control humidity?
That would be my largest concern even over temp.
Hey, not sure what it will do to humidity. I run dehues now to keep it in check in my lung room. I do have a small closet dehue but it doesn't work very well. I saw these first then the radiator cores I thought maybe with running water through my chiller I'd at least get a cool space but hadn't considered humidity problems. What about these? same issues with humidity I suppose1761828417703.png
 
While it might sound crazy I think the Cannatrol uses both heat and cooling to help control RH.
I would install the cooling radiator on top of box with air outlets on bottom.
Thinking is cool air settles and may just flow out bottom with moisture?
Maybe install the fan above the radiator to enhance flow through the box.

I have a fan inside the box and a exhaust fan with filtered passive intakes. My though was to add the rad with a fan blowing through it please excuse kinder garden art1761836158465.png

I picked up a bottle of rapid start to try out. Pipe how much do you use in a mix and for how long do you feed in veg.

First feed is .25ml/liter or 1 ml/gal for 2-3 weeks then .5ml/liter until 2nd week in flower says the label but I don't add it to my autopot reservoir so after I transplant into AP's I stop using it. I just wanted it for their first few weeks to boost root growth and my cups were full of roots at last transplant so I think it works or helps some anyways.
 
I'd watched all the video's, I got all the equipment needed, I put on my latex gloves and ground down the hash until I saw blue latex bits getting shredded into the hash.....all stop...pick out blue bits, toss gloves into the trash and used my fingers from there on in........Don't smoke the blue bits....lol
It's you and Frenchie Cannoli !! 🤣

Just kidding / I missed all this, just catching up now, just read where you're driving your bike across the highway ...without a 🪖
 
Nov 3,
My plants are done, I can chop any time now, I'll post pics as I chop. I have a plan, I'm not sure how its going to go but with my addled brain I plan to add a cooling radiator to my grow box with a fan or 2 behind to cool down the box.1762191337394.pngI'll add a drip pan with drain1762191415249.png
With an insulated reservoir this should work no?????

Humidity may be an issue and I have a small closet dehue, it ain't worth a shit but it may help. I can also suck in dryer air from what I'd call a lung room I can keep 50% ish. If I can keep my RH down then I see no reason this won't work....right...???? Talk me out of this before tonight or I blame all that read this for letting me go through with it. As I said above addled brain...and weed make idea's iffy....lol

PC you have a fridge with a fan in it you added that comes on intermittently that you want to use to dry the weed.

I thought it was working reasonably as is.

What is the main point too this? To remove heat from the air?

What’s driving either air or water through the rad or chiller?

This is what it looks like you’re trying to do. But I’m not sure why?

Best I can do without understanding what you’re up to and why.

The fridge was to dry hash. its far too small to dry a crop of weed. I have a 3x3x3 box I built with an exhaust fan, passive intakes and a osculating fan. I can't get temp in the box below house temp so the plan is to chill the box. The problem with the peltier thermo electric is the amperage it takes to run them like 12v 30 amp DC for a small one. I have no way to deliver that much power at 12v without buying a separate power supply. So ......I have a chiller I can use to chill water down to 10c to circulate through the coils with a fan behind. I only need to chill 10c from room temp so with an insulated box & reservoir this was my plan

Ah, thought it was multi purpose. My bad.

I’m on the same page now.

Then yes, it will work if the chiller is also the pump. Keep the radiator high, that’s where the heat is. If you can get a radiator with both in and out flow on the same side. Can’t remember if it being on its side is better than lengthwise?

Can’t the chiller go straight to the intake of the radiator? So only the intake of the chiller is in the res and the output of the radiator.

For that matter if the chiller is the pump can’t you have the radiator connected straight to it for intake and output? Put the chiller on a timer or something? If it just needs a bit more water to circulate through use more hose coiled beside it.

Sorry if I’m still off but i don’t see what’s actually moving the water in your diagram. But I understand what you’re up too now.

Ya, the chiller line is like a 1" hose with a larger pump. These are 5/16 -1/2 inch I'd need an adapter I have the extra pump and small hose lines. I know I could do it with 1 pump but I'd have to get an adapter + hose clamps...I have the pump...lolchiller and hose lines.JPG

AAre you going to

Are you going to put this in the refrigerator and use it to cool the circulated water that way, cuz I'm still not quite understanding what you want to do with this?
The fridge isn’t part of the project, that’s where i miss understood too.

He has a wooden box, a small chiller with a pump, and a radiator. He’ll use the tubing and a water reservoir to circulate the water through it all in the hope it cools down his drying box up to 10* more. He’s trying to use what he already has.

I’m not sure how effective it will be or how fast the water will need to circulate but it should make some difference. It’s basically a weak refrigerator.

I tried to draw you a pic that makes sense but I'm not a good artist so this what my plan is with an insulated reservoir and dry box.Drybox chiller.png

My chiller can get down to 50f. If I run 50f through the radiator the rad should get down close to 50f with a fan blowing across the fins it should cool my box, better than without, I hope. Cannatrols are like $4 Grand delivered here and there doesn't seem to be any competition at a lower price. It should chill my box but will it add too much humidity? is my concern now
 
I saw you laughing at my dire situation in my hay farm thread 😓

One thing I didn't mention is I may have had a minor case of food poisoning last night too! Around the hay farm we call that the turkey trots 🦃

Food poisoning in the dark, what a time to be alive!🤦🏻

Don't know how it could be, I made beefy chili mac and cheese from scratch with only organic ingredients and some spices

Going to find out soon if that's what did it cuz I just ate another bowl of it a half an hour ago 🤣😂🤣

I wasn't laughing at your situation but on the way you handle it. Shit happens I know all too well sometimes its like I have a dark cloud over me and nothing goes right. If it wasn't for weed I think I could be a homicidal maniac at the flip of a switch. One reason they don't want us to have guns up here, winters are rough and we can get a bit testy when we mix whiskey with our bad weather.

I was just kidding about the laughing at me part, sometimes the situations so absurd you just have to laugh but thanks I think I handled it okay too! but I do know what you mean, I have stretches like that too where it feels as if the Sword of Damocles is hanging over my head, to quote Moe Howard 🤣

It was quite a night last night though, and there's going to be more like it, it wasn't even snow last night just wind and the power went out 🤷🏻 the power flickered on and off a bunch of times really quickly before it went off for good and I don't know if that finally finished off the TV or not but I'm going to put the new one on a power strip

I'm bored without TV I like watching certain shows at certain times it's how I divide my day!

The older I get the more I realize I'm becoming like Sheldon Cooper, not that I'm getting smarter (that's definitely not it😂) Just that I have a schedule for everything ...or else I forget it

Yes me too, We watch TV 8-11/12 this time of the year 9-11/12 summer. My lights go out now at 7pm after the time change and that's normally when I shut down and head up to watch tv. With them being done now I can reset the clocks to 8pm off time. No cable just something I can find online Last night we watched episodes 2 & 3 of Talamasca, night before we watched A house of Dynamite, That was a bit spooky, how fast shit could happen is scary.
 
Power went out here today already.
Back on now but our high wind warnings [ gust to 60 tonight] starts at 7pm.
I am usually incredibly lucky or well placed on the line when it comes to power failures.
 
Thanks, I much happier with this run than my last. Even though they only vegged for 25 days they came out nice. I won't split the pots again with fems, I'll still do it for regs to up my chances at fems
Pipe are you going to beable to handle the idea of no seeds in this grow !!!!

I think I'll find a few, I had some nanners appear on my Grape Skunk early like week 7 I saw them. I just noticed some on the Zamal Dreams as well, Heck I don;t mind a few I can re run these strains. but I'm picking seeds out as wee speak, lol to smoke my joints

I had a sick cat for a few days Qnight has been hiding and sleeping, took him to the vert yesterday nothing obvious no fever or bad teeth or anything we could find wrong, Hes back up a bit today and I have him down here with me now. Hes getting better but still off. Like a 36hr flue thing we hope.

I’ve watched a few movies testing out that site you posted. Not bad. Just have to close four pop ups. Don’t click on any of the links and it’s fine so far.
