my 3 stages of flower

[superstoner1]

Stay tuned boys and girls, big changes are a coming. New lp fired tankless water heater to free up 50amps in the main box so I can add a new 22000btu mini split and going from 3000w to 6000w and running six flower units, harvesting 32-42oz every 10-11 days. All in less than 160sf including veg/clone room.

One day, I will get to this level. I'd love to run an operation that uses solar energy along with tankless water heater and be green all the way around.

Ss Wacha think the best way to utilize a 5x5 tent with a 1000 xxxl magnum hood? I have a mini split to utilize all my space on the tent floor. I was thinking two stink bud Jr's or should I modify a stinkbud jr system with 3 rails, each with 3 sites wich equals to 9 sites? Thanks

Hey SS,
I know you run botanicaire and it works great, but I was wondering if you have ever tried synthetic nutrients in any of your systems? I can't find many references of anyone using synthetic nutrients in the these systems. I am currently experimenting with GH, Advanced Nutrients and Dutch Master in different aero veggers and none of them seem to be working well at all and definitely don't come close to the growth rate when using botanicare. Actually, they all look kind of stalled out and not much growth at all, they just sit there like they do not have any nutrients. Not sure if I am doing anything wrong or what so I thought I would ask if you know of anyone ever doing this. I added airstones to the reservoirs tonight, we will see if that changes anything. Also using tap water, so I am not sure if that makes a difference between organic and synthetic nutes. Tap water with botanicaire works fine of course. Thanks.

canna nutes work well. the flora 2 part

Just stopping by to say whats up SS,you are seriously an inspiration and have taken this whole (3 stages of flower) thing a long way.I remember the earlier days when this whole thing started and you have definitly pionered this thing.Hopefuly one day I can meet you and buy you a beer.Also glad to hear you and your health are much better,it would definitly suck if this community lost a guru like you.

I also wanted to add a thank you to the few who have been around here for a while and added to this thread over the years,you know who you are...

Thanks chunks. Yeah we have all had some bad times but itits good to see everybody still hanging around. I have a new 29yo beautiful girlfriend and I just turned 45. Had best bday ever, bought a new cruiser bike, got my corvette drag car home for the first time in years, am building a new aero system that has many design upgrades, expanding to 6k watts and just ordered my lp fired thankless water heater yesterday to free up the power for new ac and lights. I also just bought an 80yo house yesterday that i will be gutting and redoing for the next couple of years to stay busy but the first thing I am going to do is build a nice garage there with a 30x30 upstairs room for an 8-10k grow and a small room to live in while I remodel the house.

I've mentioned before, that I always thought SS was some cyborg type of machine

Just stopping by to say thanks SS. I use to be on the old SB forum and learned alot from you. Although im in coco and no longer doing aero, im still using your nutrient soup (slightly modified). I may have to get some aero going again eventually

 

[superstoner1]

Very cool. I have had some major life changes the last few months and now that I am single I have lots of time to work on the grow. New system should go into operation tonight, thankless water heater is in, new mini split is ordered.
Plant lighting hydroponics.com has 1000w phantom ballasts with bulbs on sale for $180
