Got step one of the new tent set up done.
Using 2x4 of my tent for hempys that I’m hooking to a manifold and reservoir. Gonna make those later tonight or tomorrow depends how long this trim session takes. Probably going to put a couple DWC plants in the front half once my other 96’s get here.
I’ll have 4 96’s total and I’ll Be adding the last two mid summer to make it an even 6.

Any way I’ll be switching the buckets for a tray and then drilling new drain holes to run a 1/2” drain tube from the tubs into the tray/bucket. And the. I’ll be running 1/2” tubes from each halo ring to the manifold then to my reservoir. I’ll be adding on and off valves between my manifold and my Halo rings so I can control the water flow and water all three at once or one at a time.

Nice work smoke, you do good work.
I really appreciate that! It’s taken me the better part of 2 years to really find my grow style and set up. I finally feel like I’ve found my way with the hempys. As always most the credit goes to Soil2coco he’s helped me the last 6 months or so really get shit dialed in my last grow yielded roughly 6 zips on 2 plants that were shorter than 2 feet. But all on his feed schedule using the masterblend he’s also the one who talked me into hempys lol. Biggest, densest, frostiest buds I’ve ever grown. I’m gonna try and really maximize this grow letting these veg a bit bigger than the last and gonna do some more training this go around. I feel like my skills have improved 10x over in the last 6 months though.

Can’t beat that Masterblend man. Cheap nutes that produce solid flowers.

No you’ve struggled with set up issues. You’re in the right place with the right people to get you back on track. I’ve got all the confidence in the world in your skills you’re figuring out what your style and set up are still which isn’t a bad thing once you’ve settled on something you’ll get it dialed in man. I promise.

No you really can’t! I use the remo just to get started but after like week 2 it’s masterblend all the way out idk why I’ve had some issues getting started with the masterblend I’ll get it figured out eventually once I finish off my remo nutes. Shits cheap and does really well for me. I liked the flower fuel as well!

Thanks for the kind words man. Feels like I’m spinning my wheels sometimes. Ran photos. Then autos exclusively. Now back to photos. Under a completely different set of lights than previous. Going to try DWC... idk man. Yield is my primary concern.

Man its shit i cant like things yet haha. Yeah your most recent harvest looks.fire bro, how long have you usually vegged for? I always aim for 5 weeks but find out the plants usually force my hand before i make it too 4. The ones i have in flower right (posted a pic a few pages back) only ended up with a 3 week veg because they were growing so damn vigorously!!

Dude I know EXACTLY how you feel on the wheels spinning! I felt that way for the first two year lol trying different stuff, setups, lights, nutrients etc. I mean you name it I’ve probably tried it. But I found that’s the only way to find your style once you’ve done that it’ll be smooth sailing! You’ll be happier going back to photos the autos are fun back burner projects but I couldn’t have got what I wanted out of them as a main grow. I’ll continue to run them in my small tent in coco DTW that shits been working well for me. But I defiantly have less issues and prefer photos.

Stick with a hydro style grow style whether it be DWC, coco DTW, or hempys and your yields won’t disappoint you. I promise that!

I’m usually right around 3-4 weeks. I generally keep them short because my veg box is 3’ tall so before I move them to the tent to flower. This round the flower tent was empty so I’m gonna be able to grow them a bit larger this time. I’ve been running perpetually the last year though. Shits been nuts my plant count was at like 24 at one time now I’m down to 3 photos and 3 autos.

Is that a 4x8 Smokexbreak? Agree with everyone on the clean setup.
I appreciate it! It’s a 4x4x8 tent. I’ve got to figure out how I’m going to fill it up. But I don't think I’ll be able to do 6 hempys the way I’m wanting so I think I’ll run 3 hempys like this in the back and 2 DWC up front. Idk haven’t fully decided how I wan a do this yet. I know I need to add another 2-3 plants before I flip to flower though by the time these are done I’ll be able to smoke again so I wanna maximize my yield this next harvest.
