Yep right on 5.39 pound without counting trim bags and mouldy bud
Never grown one this big I always thought she would swallow me if I stood out next to her in the dark :o
How long was veg time? Couldn’t u just do one Bertha every season? (Although I think I know the answer to this lol)

ro would be costing you a bit. How much you loosing for each litre it makes?
Not sure Reza. I’ve got one of these and using a pressure pump to run at 100psi. And rigged a float switch, solenoid, and relay to auto shut off when a drum is full.

decent setup. Only 1.25L of waste for every litre produced. Heaps better than a 3 or 4:1.

So do I. You’re point being, (and taking into account the specific post I replied to)?
my point is he used gender based pronouns to describe his feelings about some female plants. If he did similar about a male plant I doubt anyone would care about the gender insults directed at literally nobody.

It’s the best one I’ve used so far. Pressure pump was almost as expensive as the filter set up though. I just fill 120L drums from it and use as needed.
Also add H202 to the drums about 2-3 days before I use them for a res change.

Gdp x gg females ended up with 3 from 6, gender equality in this strain lol. They will be in The big tent as soon as the other stuffs done, probably 2-3 weeks. I’ll veg em for week in there to fill the scrog enough before the flip

Yeah on my particular fixture it was only a matter of drilling 2 holes. Would void any warranty though

Ok, that is close.

Btw, read your posts re your user name and martial arts. Well done!
I did 35 years of training and competing. Mainly Sanda, Wing Chung, BJJ, and freestyle wrestling when I went to an American syllabus high school. Was Si Hing in our club for many years. Last comp I did was when I was in my lateish 40’s, about 10 years ago now, and placed 3rd in the state titles for ground fighting / submission.
Excellent. I've done 3 different Wing Chun styles. Attained Sifu in all. Also did Escrima stick fighting and a fav but unknown is Yang Mian. Just been down the beach doing my forms, now am knocking back a scrumpy cider.

Training began with 10,000 chain punch's each side , beginning with the left standing on one leg bent and the other horizontal not touching the ground, then lap sau and forward from that.

Geez Reza u can’t help yourself can you? The words used were nouns not feminine pronouns. And were insulting to the female gender. I am a woman and it was offensive to read.
When u become a woman then u can tell me it wasn’t.

I just finished a run with 2x HLG 550 V2 rspecs over a 4x8. For a single light for veg to flower it did a decent job, actually better than I was expecting.
I’ve run the same plant under 1000W HPS before and I think the bud end result under HPS was better, more flavour and a bit stronger. Maybe because there’s no UV with the HLG or the amount of red and IR? The buds with the HLG are definitely denser, although maybe not as large as with the HPS. In saying that though I was using 4x the W with HPS.
I’m thinking of adding some UV during the next run, with some 315 CMH or T5 UV.

For me going LED was due to having to relocate my room and I lost the 12’ ceiling height I had with the Gavita’s. I’ve got no choice than having to use AC and it was heaps cheaper only having to put in 3.5kw and the overall run cost was nothing compared to 4x 1000w DE and 7kw of AC.

I’m still in two minds though.
I’d never put in the deep reflector DE’s again unless I had 12-15’ ceilings, although I’d consider the Hellion CMH and HPS DE’s for another room.
Prolly better off just buying 2 more hlgs man an add a few 315s

Veg time was normal no indoor starters for me this year
Was actually 2 weeks behind of the dates I normally aim for so instead of first week Oct it was last week Oct from solo cup to the main spot
I transplanted on the bloody farmers moon wat ever u call it so I'm gonna have to do the same again next season
I like my variety of smoke
I'd rather grow 3 one pounder different strains than one 5 pound plant a year

Yeah mate that's her secret ..top her as much as you can she loves it
I havnt come across a ww that slows down like some plants do so topping is her secret to huge yields I think
Doesn't need much feed liquid wise but she never shows signs of being over fed if you do smash it into her.
This year's ww had 2 cages around her and a 1m by 1m scrog net on top from my indoor tent pic frame
She's a cash tree for sure I've seen about 7 ww with my own eyes and only one has yielded less than 1.5 lb and that was due to whitefly infestation.
The others were all over 2lb with one at 4lb a mate grew inside a water tank with a car trailer net over it for scrog.
