Hey Jig,
I was inspired by your last grow to go vertical scrog, and I'm loving it. Instead of chicken wire, I went the nylon tomato netting route with great results so far. Purple Kush under a 400 Watt and I'm hoping for lots of it. Lol, maybe one day you'll give soil another chance.
Anyway, so excited to follow this new grow. I've had to play catchup with your last couple, so I can't wait to follow this one as it evolves. This may be a dumb question, but do the roots just flow down the tube? What happens when the roots get so long it encounters the next plant down the tube?
Here's a pic for you since your 100+ page journal was my inspiration. Only day 6 of flowering in organic soil. Training around the net has worked wonders.
The first is last night, and the other of the first or second day after training to the net.
Thanks again, and can't wait!
For sure
someday, i'll try soil again. Plus I want to grow outdoors, so that will be really fun. I'm stoked you are trying the v-scrog. It's great I think. Lots of fun to train your girls as they grow. Plus it just looks so damn cool.
No questions are stupid my friend. Only those not asked. The roots do just sit and flow down the tubes. I'm not too worried about them all encountering eachother. There is no harm in roots tangling... until you need to move a plant or something. But I'm not planning on that.
Love the look of the setup. Getting more surface area for that 400 to work on. I'm a bit confused though.... you using the white string... or green netting? Not a big deal, just want to be clear in understanding you.
Thanks for sharing with us. I feel honored that I could have a part in inspiring your grow.
well than consider this me sitting on my bean bag and sparking one to the adventure. Notepad and all.

Right on bro. Bean bags are the best... I just hope it's heavy duty, as the cats migt rip a little hole in it. But not to worry... there's lots of metal tape around for repairs.
Glad you are here with us.
Wow, Jig you also know yer Vampire stuf as well....is there no end to the Jigmeisters talents, hehe. Rock on Friday!
I am basically horrible at playing Baseball. All parts, hitting, catching, throwing, pitching. So yeah... there are limits.

dude that vampire shit was killin me last night yo i laughed thru a whole white rhino blunt...hilarious
HAHAHA... the first time I read this I missed the word 'blunt'. I was trying to figure out how you went through a white rhino. Then I got all confused and wasn't sure what a rhino was... I kept thinking hippo. So I was picturing you running laughing your ass off, trying to tackle a white hippo, hahahaha. I'm laughing so hard right now.
Good stuff bro, glad you like my random info.
I was at one of my inspirational weekends. I'm doing this leadership program from a place called Landmark Education (landmarkeducation.com). It's the same place I have talked about before. Really really amazing stuff. Anyhow, it took my whole weekend up and I was staying at Grandma's house. Had the wife watch the plants, but having her do RIU is just too much, lol.
Thanks for thinking of me, friend.
i'm subscribed, noob also, with 2 grows under me, one goin. great setup, heath is cool, lots of luck!!
Heath is cool. And stoked for your grow... hope it goes well. Thanks for stopping by.
He's been taken away by the vampires.......aaaaaaaagggghhhhhhh.
Lucky for me my blood runs with whiskey....kinda puts them off
Yeah man... I got some heat from the ICV (international consortium of vampires). There is a strict privacy policy regarding the skin creams. However, becuase I am no part vampire, I can not be held to their laws. There was however a conspiracy trying to prove I was a tiny bit of vampire ancestry. I dispelled this by pricking my finger and letting a drop of blood land on a bible. If you have any part of vampire in you, the bible will smoke and let off a smell of sulphur. They even had me try it twice... no smoke, no smell. And I'm still here today.
This sure is a strange twist my journal has taken.
Looking good bro. Did you ever figure out how you were gonna fit the net pots in there? I probably missed where you said what you were gonna do.
Can't wait to see some more pics. Hope you and the wife are doing well
I am just stuffing the bigger netpots a little of the ways in... and covering them with beer cups and metal tape to keep the light out.
Me and my wife are doing well, been very busy lately. We really miss seeing you guys. I miss your wife and baby, and I miss having a good friend to be with. Hope things are good out there.
Everyone's missing you Jig. Did you kill all of your girls in a temporary fit of insanity, or just been busy setting up the new stuff and getting the girls ready for school?
I'm sorry to say, I have let one of my plants die. You guys remember the one I stuffed the roots in the bottom of the pot... well, that's not such a good idea I guess. I mean I think it could have worked... but didn't. Oh well. It's pretty sad. It's just horrible looking.
I'm keeping the 4 left all the way to harvest.
I'm going to take pictures and tell you all about my plans with the plants and such. Just gonna do it after dinner and a little quality time with my wife. Haven't seen her in as long as I haven't seen you.
peace fellas (and ladies if your out there)
