I'm hanging in there ya'll ;) only 3 days from now...whew! I wanted to share a couple pics of my back yard where I'll be moving by August. Its pretty good sized, bigger than I could ever plant and tend by myself for sure! I'm thinking once I'm established there for a year or two, I'm going to talk to city hall about starting a public co-op where folks can help grow vegetables for those less fortunate. I know my daddy would love that...

I got both Purple Voodoos up and running! so that makes three girls total for me...only problem is I'm running out of time to get my closet set up properly. Do you think I should go with a 10k finisher bulb to really get the girls to veg like hell before flowering, or a UV-A mixed bulb for both vegging and flowering...this is my dilemma...I've read that the UV-A has a component of light that is missing from HID and HPS systems that helps plants reach their full potential...I think I feel a UV-A T5HO trial coming on. What do ya'll think?

The fella that cuts the grass is gonna hook me up with another fella who has a plow when I get down there and settled. I will have a fall garden this year! The property extends past the trees in the back there. Plenty of room for a garden to feed at least 6 people for a year! and it's just little ol' me...just hope I can keep the deer out of my corn!!

okay uv bulbs should only be run for 1/3 of the time max. so if you have 12 hours of light on then those bulbs should run for 4 hrs on max. noe the uv bulbs will cause more resin to form on leaves and will slow down photo synthesis. so i recommend if you use one use it for the last 4-5 weeks of flower. So buy a t5 setup if you dont have one already get 6500k bulbs to run for veg the 54 watt ones. then order the uv bulbs and switch the 6500 out and uv in at week 4-5 of flower then set timer to turn on in the middle of lights on for 3-4 hrs. to replicate it right. That is what i have read about them. Me myself i would rather just get more reg bulbs for the t5 like 2700k/3000k to use in flower.

What lights you using for flower now? and what you using for veg?

I'm using a 6400k right now for both. I was wondering about the UV-A, was planning to do some research on it today, so thanks ;)

Will do ;) Did I mention the PV's are up and running? I'm not setting the closet up till probably next week or the week after, depending on how I"m feeling and if I can get someone over here that can help me hang my light system. Its only one bulb right now but I'm thinking of daisy chaining two more on there and running a mixed spectrum. How long you been growing bro? You seem to know a lot about whats up :)

Hey everybody! don't know who will see this but thought I'd check in anyways. I'm recovering okay, had to go back to the hospital for a spell but back out and doing much better now. Thanks to everybody who sent up prayers! ok, update time!

I had a surprise visit from a seed that I had counted out! apparently she got mixed in with the PV #1. I separated them earlier this evening and gave her a new container. I would love to do pics but I'm too tired to fool with that right now, tried to do too much today I think. It sucks being out of commission so long!

So as of today, 2 Dream Reapers and 2 Purple Voodoos. They are still babies and I won't be able to get them in the closet till the first week of May but after that, its on! I just have to figure out about some nutes. Thanks for following and hopefully I will have a nice show for everyone by then. Peach out...

Peace :peace:
