The MS880 is a beast of a machine, i've never owned one but used one that also had the 30" bar.
That's uncanny! I actually nicknamed the MS880 "The Beast".

Those tents are looking good. Not long now.......

The MS880 is a beast of a machine, i've never owned one but used one that also had the 30" bar. Got a bloke who delivers my wood cheap now, so down to a MS170 and an electric Makita. I'm a petrol head from way back and have always laughed at whimpy electric saws. But for the smaller stuff they are fucking awesome, especially for carting in the 4wd to clear trees off tracks etc.



Just checked out your journal, seems like a good system and working out well for you. Is this mob who made yours? autopot.com.au/kits

I want to give hydro a go, but want to have another run in soil to get that dialed in first and improve on the stuff i've learned on my first grow. I outgrew one tent and got a second tent, so i could probably do soil in one and hydro in the other.

Reminds me, havent done a grow update in a while. Tent 2 is pretty full, they are starting to stretch a bit now. I've taken off the LST clips i've been using to widen and flatten the canopy. So now they can stretch up. Thought i got the fungus gnats under control, but they hit back again. Otherwise all seems to be fairly healthy and no warning signs. Tent 2:

Tent 1 is a bit further along since flip, and there's buds everywhere forming up. Same as the other tent, no real issue besides gnats and it's going great... almost too good that i'm waiting for some kind of curve ball. Tent 1:

Getting excited now, so rewarding opening the tent and seeing the growth! :D
Your tents are looking sweet dude!

Mine are actually gogrow pots ( a rip off of autopots, but esentially the same thing)

They're just so easy, fill up res once a week, and let them do their own thing, no carrying water in/bending over/ wondering if you've fed/watered them enough. they drink as much as they need so no wastage at all . still ph test the res daily as I find it rises slowly for a couple days then stabilizes.

Anyways, happy growing

Thanks mate, i'm super happy with the grow so far i'm starting to get a nice jungle happening. Come harvest time i might have to borrow the beast to cut these plants down. :D It's been so rewarding watching them change from veg to flower.

Thanks, i'm running soil and pretty much organic with the feeding, ph'ing the water and just supplementing with a really light dose of calmag. Been good except for the gnats, pretty sure they were in a shitty Osmocote bag i got from Bunnings early in the grow.

Ok cheers, i will look up the Gogrow im keen to try a soilless system and the simpler the better.

Looks like low psi garbage tbh. True high psi aero is difficult to maintain and plants die within hours if theres a pump failure or power outage.

Did you put that auto feed together mate or did you buy it in kit form
Does a gd job by the look of your plant ;)
Thanks mate. Yeah I just put it together. Any sort of 13mm tubing (even garden hose), plus 6mm feed line and assorted poly fittings. I make a simple manifold with as many lines as I want depending on the no. of plants.

'Sounds pretty cool. Can you show or describe your reservoir? Volume? Elevated? Etc...etc....?

I notice your pots are on carpet. No leaks or runoff to worry about?

Do you go through the entire volume of your res. each week?
