All this is the middle plant and I took a pic of middle plant and it looks like I haven't even begun yet.
WTF.
Might need some kitty litter lmfao. I'm on my way to get some!. View attachment 4021489View attachment 4021490

Dude that is totally ridiculous! I hope you have an army of [insert lowly paid ethnicity here] to trim that. Ship your shit to China and then have it shipped back all trimmed. That's the globalist LP way LOL.

So I thought I would start a 2017 grow our own thread. Enough with the LP not LP or BM or CC. This thread is about growing our own.

So I will start. I am doing a DWRC grow with a "Bubbleflow" setup (see:

) that I had built special for me. It is almost identical to the Bubbleflow system except mine has a drain (you need a drain why they didn't put one I don't know). Plus I am doing a 5 pot soil grow for a sick friend.

I am using 3x600W + 1x400W digital ballasts with HPS lights (2.2KW) . I can turn the ballasts down to 400W for veg and still use the HPS. I found it makes little difference using HPS for short veg periods, and starting seeds with HPS continuing all the way into flower works fine too. So I never bothered with the added expense of vegetative lights. I also don't use LED but a buddy had decent results recently so I will revisit that at some point.

This is all for 12 pots connected in a recirculating system of 6 pots + 20G res with large air stones in each pot. One 6 pot system for Sativa and one 6 pot system for Indica. That way I can flush the Indicas and Sativas at different weeks since they finish at different times. Plus the 5 soil plants are all Indica since my friend gets pain and sleep relief the best from strong Indica.

So strains...

Well the outdoor is coming along rather nicely. Awesome weather to finish off the somewhat crappy growing season. These are from the greenhouse, actually happy with what I got probably a pound of nice buds and another pound of popcorn..This is Moscow Blueberry by Kalashnikov seeds:




This is Ice Cream by Paradise Seeds:

Looking nice. I'm hoping we have these kind of temps next year at this time. Last year we had 28 degrees going into November. So the fall temps in the last 2 years in the GTA were unbelievable.

Cheers

Nature of the Canada4 thread. Recent pic on page 1. Into early flower now, grow light is late, but it will be ok, done in a day or 2
More into DIY LED lights
Use coco coir 20% perlite, feed 2/flush 1 day with calmag+silicate 205 run off. Air pruning fabric pots extended veg, grid on pot etc. The usual.

This thread is a bit more normal, got a political burr with the drug war on pot on the other and when I visit some others...it does me no good!
As you might have noticed...
Not too big on plant pics, see lot's of those, only grow OG kush (for now) and wuz trying to get more sugar on em like my buddy with multi spectrals.

First time I viewed yer pic, my browser went nuts, had to shut the window down and wuz concerned fur a bit, went back next message under and it wuz fine. never seen that one here before. Contacted the folks who run the forum to see if they noticed anything strange. Nothing I can figure though..

Like to practice some writing too, will copy paste DIY parts info to new thread and leave my shit there to go to the back of the pack!

Room starting to fill in for the last run for 2017 and some Xmas bud. 4x 5gal at the back and 6x 3gal in front of them at various stages, 4 at the front were flipped Saturday. Zoom-in on the 4x 5gal's is day 22.



Cheers

Had a 10 minute conversation with neighbor over smell.
She asked why so much and I replied cuz I reduce it down to oil.
She began to go on about headaches/dizziness from the smell.
I was polite but straight to the point when I told her I'm sorry it will be all down soon and moved into the house.
We've known each other for over 10 years along with my other surrounding neighbors.
She's cool with it. I guess she wouldn't have said anything if they were a little smaller lol.

 

[Jay p123]

Here is a pic today of what's left.
It's absolutely ridiculous.
Started on last Tuesday and I'm pretty sure I'll have to start stripping and trimming dry bud while this is still in backyard.
A top pic from both sides.
Almost ready to just throw in the towel lol.

Maybe I'll just leave the plants like they are now and then next summer they will grow back into monsters again eh Photon Fuck Head
