Glad to heat the plants picking up, nice news for a Sunday. Can you not run another power line (that runs from a different fuse) in from another room?

May you lovely cali quints grow into hairy bushes of the caliber described by Don G & T, which caused me to lol so hard that my 8 year old asked what was wrong.

Close inspection of the el monstres revealed two plants with major issues...one was heavy invasion of spider mites and the other was an overnight multiplication of black, translucent trichs...so two plants were harvested...somewhat earlier than planned...51 days. A quick dry on the reflector of the 400 mh has given an intense body stone with couch lock tendencies....fairly stout buzz....good for medical relief and for evening relaxation...overall a rather enjoyable ride...will give a more complete report after further trials.

yes i can do that, but im really cant spend any cash, and i dont have a box for veg so was gonna try to get a rubbermaid bin and use that, but cant afford it, im sure i will figure somthin out though, also would it be ok to do the veg 12 hours under the cfl and then when the hps turns on put them in their for the twelve hours and then keep switchin every 12 hours or would it stress the plants, changing spectrum every 12 hours, i also need a socket for my cfl to, wich also cost money, pretty much everything for me is a money issue if i had money i would have a lot better setup, like a veg room ,bloom rooms, and probably a real grow tent

Thanks cof, shame about mites, have you checked your other girls?

Mcpurple, i don't think you will have issues switching lights, as long as they have a steady time and routine they will be fine.

 

[curious old fart]

The mites have been an ongoing issue, but I thought I had eliminated them...hopefully this was the last one with that problem. My fault...I brought a clone into the area withount fumigating...won't do that again.

Cardboard and duct tape make good enclosures...large cardboard is usually available from a local appliance dealer....only expense is the duct tape.

[Heads Up]

i wonder how many folks speed dry oln the back of their lights. i do on my envirolight but not the hps, it might burn haha

does the extra hardware put your electric use up much? i only run my dehumidifier last week of flower to bump the resin up then to dry

To be honest, now that the little lady and her two girls are gone, my electric bill has gone down even with all my stuff running. I live in atlantis, remember, I pretty much have to run all my stuff to keep my grow room from being all over the place with temps and humidity.

 

[Heads Up]

Very nice curious, it seems we're having a harvest outbreak. Enjoy the fruits of your labor.

 

[mcpurple]

thanks dst i didnt think it would effect them in a bad way, and cof i actuallt just got some duct tape and a cardbord box for my other closet, now i just need a socket but they want like 20 bucks for, so i got to hold off on that in the mean time i will be tryin to build the small grow box

Up to £100m of cannabis is grown in Scotland a year, more than the Scottish vegetable crop, according to the man leading the fight against the industry.


Have a check of the grow op in the house....

Most of these types of growers are Vietnamese/Chinese gangs.

Hey Cof

what the hell black translucent trichs!?!! never heard of that particular plant ailment.

as for the mites. man i hate mites. only thing ive found to wipe the floor with them is hot shots no pest strips, but their a bit toxic if you have pets n stuff

aye its rife over the border too but the dopes barely worth smoking to be honest. that coupled with the fact they burn the houses down 7/10 times means the po po can be seen to be doing their bit in the war against drugs whilst small time quality producers can operate under the radar. i think its a good thing their getting nicked.

I don't know what they are either......not so sure it's an ailment, but possibly a characteristic.....maybe black instead of amber?.....I didn't want any more couch lock so I harvested. It is a very intense high.....I've smoked for over 40 years and this is one of the strongest strains I have ever had......it's going to take a few days to get a handle on it......until then I'm just going to enjoy the ride.

[Don Gin and Ton]

haha yeah like amber turned to the dark side

its nice to have something like that in your stash to wipe the floor with yourself and peeps when the mood takes eh! that kind of dope i rarely have a handle on...

happy growing cof

 

[curious old fart]

I'm enjoying it......it's a holiday in the states so I started today with a bowl of the el monstre and now I'm worthless, but happy

It used to be called President"s day and then they added Martin Luther King Day and I don't know what they call it now but an excuse not to work...which we seem to be good at creating....and we wonder what happened to our GNP.

Ja man, I'll second that, welcome^^^^. For a minute I thought, oh aye, here's someone with a funny handshake, then I saw your Bricklayer badge, nice!!! Was just posting a pic of the Knights templar on another thread....co-incidence, I think not!!! lol.

Don, I agree, let the gangs take the heat and the little man have a bit of breathing space. I just hope it isn't bringing extra heat onto people because of flyovers. But then I guess they are looking for rather large heat sources!!!

Yes man, cof, what holiday is it, my Moleskin diary just has US stamped on it, but no indication of what it is...labour day?

But you Americans get crap holidays (from what I hear) A guy my biz partner knew moved over from Switzerland where he had like 6 weeks holidays, the company in the US gave him 2 weeks!!! He said, nah forget it, and ended up agreeing to an extra 2 weeks unpaid!! Standard here is 25 days, plus public days.
