This grow I tried a weekly res change and it didn't get me better results. So I am going back to the old method.
But you had the pollen issue and smaller plants.
on't you think if you would not have had those 2 problems, that the result would have been better with a weekly reservoir change?

I was told ( where i'm from) no issue for medical growers like myself for insurance , but they are not covering the recreational stuff. I might look into it a little deeper though.
Yeah let us know what you find out. As far as I know Medical is not covered by anyone except Lloyd's right now. And actually recreational should be covered as long as you are within plant count limits and when your insurance renewed this year there was no clause, make sure to check that.

Great container!
It is a pity that the inside width of these things is just to small for 2 trays of 4 ft wide and some 1.5 ft between it where you could walk.

I was hoping I could squeeze my 8 foot table sidewys and have 6' of room left since they are 10' long. No dice, especially since I will frame, spray foam etc.

4300$ CDN delivered inclusive of 13% VAT.

Delivery was a bitch.. He had to drive 2 hours to get here and then wiggle it in next to the garage on a pad I have. He almost wasn't able to leave once it was deposited as he had two trees 3' away. Anyways I gave him a 7gram bud and even though he claimed he didn't smoke (if you drove a commercial truck you would too), he took it with big smiles as a tip :)

The GZ is doing awesome, almost ready, another week or so to go. Will post pics before the chop. Haven't posted pics because they haven't changed much. They smell amazing, I might have to do a whole table of this in the future. I figure I'll be about 6k in once I frame and spray foam and do the electric. Not too bad for peace of mind, and I can always sell it once it is done up if I run out of cash. Actually I was thinking this would make a great business with legalization. 8x10 grow rooms ready to go...lol

Took some clones last night for the next run as things are finishing up in the room. Got a schedule to keep so I have to get the next run on the table in 2 weeks exactly.

This next round will be Mango Saphire and Lemon Zkittles. I wish I had kept the GZ mother as I would have run that again, but as it is all I had was the one really large Mango mother that is going to go outside this spring, and a very tiny Lemon Zkittles mother. So clone composition is 36 clones Mango and 12 clones Lemon. I chose the Mango 'cause it is done in 7 weeks and I want things done before it gets too hot outside and in the room. At the last minute I thought I'd throw some LZ in for variety and because I have never grown it before. It takes two weeks longer so hopefully it will finish ok.

Harvested the Mango last night. Using my tried and true method of weighing wet and dividing by 4 (to get 25% of wet weight), I got about 3/4lb dry of 1/4 the table. This is the worst yielding strain out of the three on the table, but extrapolating out at the same rate, that is at least 3lbs dry, which is what I forecasted. So this method of no veg gets me less but I would get at least 1 more round per year this way so I think it all kinda works out the same as if I gave it two weeks veg and got my usual 4lbs +,

So knowing this, will you stick with the no veg?

12 oz/2x4 section is still pretty good lol

Im popping my GZ beans in search of a mom in the next couple days. Your excitement for the strain jumped it to the front of the bus lol

It's like bombuclad mang...now it is giving off a bit of a diesel smell in addition to the Mr. Clean lol.

There are pro's and con's.

Pro: no trimming of unders, no lollipopping 2x in a 8-10 week cycle. Less work.
Con: Less "immediate" yield
Con: No massive colas, lol
Pro: easy trimming

so undecided lol...I ;love me some bigun colas though...

One thing about the GZ is that in hydro with hydrocorn, it looks a lot nicer than the plant in promix bx.. That one is a bit behind and is getting less intense light. But still, I notice the difference, the GZ in hydro is like light green and way nicer looking compared to the promix BX, which IME means smoother smoke.

I need to mention this is without stems or stalks. This is just bud weighed wet *(0.25) . Cheers.

Well my first couple runs on the table I'm going for easiest lol

So I'll prob go no veg.
If your clones are rough, which sometimes after 10-14 days they will be, do at least 3 days veg with 5 * 15 minute pump cycles. In fact, I start with 5 * 15 minute pump cycles per 24h and keep it that way personally. Anyways you need to give the clones at least a couple days to acclimate to the new enviro if they are rough and yellowing and have poor roots ( like just a couple ). FYI.
