About SAB and fires........
    #17947122 - 03/13/13 12:55 AM (10 years, 11 months ago)

SO! Just had my first near death experience with the hobby.....

Was working along in my SAB using an x-acto knife to grab some clone material off of some new fruits...... used a FUCKLOAD of iso inside the SAB wipping everything ect, ect, ect...

Story goes like this... did 2 clones, great!  Flame sterilizing in between clones OUTSIDE the SAB and did not knowtice there was still shroomy material on the underside of my x-acto knife which dried out and caught fire right before I reached into my SAB wit it glowing red....

Guess what happens?? FUCKING BLUE FLAMES FUCKING EVERYWHERE.

ya and I had my best fruits inside of there..... FUCK.... and a super saturated paper towel full of ISO.... DOUBLE FUCK.... closest thing that had water in it... some old Grain spawn jars I had soaking in my sink... grab one of them and immediately opened the SAB.... BAD FUCKING IDEA. Flames explode out everywhere due to the huge increase in oxygen and the towel lights up like fucking napalm. I Quickly dumped all the gross/ contamed to shit water all over everything and proceeded to clean up the mess and lysoled the fuck out of my SAB and cleaned the fuck out of the outside of my jars...

lucky none of them were open and I just took the shrooms, and washed them off and tossed them in my dehydrator with the others and picked some new fresh/ not as good fruits to clone from...

FUCKING FUCK FUCKITY FUCK FUCK.

that will be all.

That's scary shit! I always hated the fumes from spraying iso in my box, gave me a headache, plus I couldn't have my flame in there to sterilize.. So I switched to bleach:tongue2: i like it muchhh better!

Fire says hug me, I just want to be your friend!
:onfire:

I know it's the first thing that comes to mind, but water isn't the best thing to put out a fire.  You may have noticed ISO takes a lot of oxygen to burn and choking it will quickly put it out.  Next time you have a fire in a container, just close up the container and wait to open it.

yeah I actually thought about that. but its in a plastic bin. Not sure if it would, but in the event that it melts a hole in my SAB, thats disaster. put some iso in a water bottle and shake it up then melt a tiny hole in the side of it and see what  happens. then imagine that on the scale of a SAB. 

It burns VERY hot, mostly due to its rapid consumption of oxygen and in the heat of the  moment im sure finding water is a lot easier than something that will block giant arm holes.

speaking of BHO horror stories.... I tried making BHO with 99% ISO once cuz I got my hands on some and... welp... needless to say every1 in my entire apt was HIGH AS FUCK from the fumes for like a week. I swear. I put all the liquit inside a couple shot glasses and put those on an egg rack over boiling water to evaporate the ISO... didnt think about it turning my apt into a collection area for ISO fumes and every1 in there  lost a handful of brain cells....

Lol if you do it inside, ventilation is key!
I've never really like iso extractions myself though.

NEVER USE ACLOHOL/BLEACH/FLAMMABLE SUBSTRANCES IN THE CONFINDED SPACE OF A STILL AIR BOX SAB ETC.

AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHY

there is no need to try and keep it super sanitise, as the whole point of these things is to keep contaminants out of the air and landing on your stuff. its a still air box, its not meant to be kept sterile.

alcohol fumes in a confined space is very dangerous. even in a kitchen alcohol fumes can light. I had an explosion with a dodgely made alcohol lamp resulting in a big fireball in open air.


again - NEVER CLEAN YOUR STILL AIR BOX WITH ALCOHOL.

you can use an alcohol soaked paper towel to wipe your jar lids down and hands etc but you d ont need shitloads
