got to love them Macbooks. I have 1 right in front of me. Plants got huge! Nice looking room. Any space for another Outdoor grow to charge up the cash flow. Looks like you have spent a nice chunk on all that fancy equp

I have been thinking about getting one of those ceiling fire extinguishers too, because even if you are within the legal limit your house insurance won't pay for the fire damage if your growing in your house. If your looking to buy one just google Flame Defender they range in price for 40$ to 150$ depending on the size but better safe than sorry.

sorry for hte lag on responding to everyones post but im sure u all can understand how busy ive been. or at least imagine lol.

enjoyed my last free walking weekend and worked my ass all day monday and tues and tomorrow morning is wednesday and 6am is my scheduled surgery time.
so im sitting here smoking sum hash to help me pass out and i do have to say the room is coming together nicely. ran into a few setbaks and learning to make adjustments as we go but i love a challenge and kinda sad im almost done with the build. i mean im stoked to get actually growing and the results... but just like goin on vacation; the trip is half the fun. im sure ill do upgrades cuz ill get bored and want to try diff methods, but until then lets get this shit rolling. literally :bigjoint:

i took a few pix of construction and pix of both rooms. as well as two new videos of each room for u guys to take a stoney tour on. ill upload them tomrrow or whenevr im feeling up to it and try to edit the video and mess with the cool effects 8) lol

ill be needing sum advice on shit coming up like; scrog table design and measurements, materials, etc.

maybe info on advanced hydro shit etc but i think i got the basics for now and will tweak it as we go.

the clones are doin good. lost a few (about 6 so far but i had also taken a good 25-30 half ass tiny cuttings just cuz they were there and i had a whole tray to fill up so i said fuk it ill experiment... and most are still rooting so it was a good test 8) hopefully this coming weekend or so ill feel better to crutch my ass upstairs and do a transplant and get the clones into 6" rockwool cubes and start vegging under the 1000w MH.

enough rambling for now gonna go sit out bak admire the stars with my pup and pipe and enjoy the rest of my night. :bigjoint::sleep:

Why not say F the table and just stake anything that needs support? The net can be a real PITA I hear!

Just my .02!

...hey boomer, do you run your co2 all the way through your grow, or just for a few weeks?

...first time using co2 here...my crop is still in harvest...I just converted back to freash air @ week 7. I've noticed that the buds are not as sticky as my normal crop, however, they are fatter...and they smell a little different also...any clue why? ...or am I just trip'n? ...again, this was my first time using co2 (kept 1500 ppm during light hours,temps 75-80), just wonder if they'll get their normal stickyness , I still have a good week of bloom left. ...any ideas?

It's really a no-brainer - I was looking through a hydro catalog and saw it and immediately decided that was the move.

It's good to have a "normal" extinguisher in there as well, but what are the odds that you'll be in your grow room when a fire breaks out?

It also ESPECIALLY makes sense if you're running a CO2 generator.

Good luck with your surgery, Boomer.

Awe Boom, good luck in surgery. You will come back better and stronger than before.

I think you should net up that SCROG table, its easy to make a PVS support and wrap it with netting.

I was actually thinking of making one of those this weekend or getting bamboo sticks and use those for staking.

Hey bro. Are you exhausting your room after running co2 or is it competely sealed?

You're wasting your time running co2 with temps under 85 degrees. Keep those temps about 85-87 and you will be rewarded.

honestly itll b my first time using c02 myself so i cant answer in too much confidence but from wat i understand u were right to run c02 during daytime hours. c02 injection allows u to push temps 80-90degrees. 85 being prime for c02 uptake. at least thats wat i remember reading from my research.
also c02 is meant to speed up the growth in cannabis but does not make the potency of the thc any higher from wat ive also read. the stickiness im not sure... theres many variables in wat ure comparing too... nutes? strains? etc... but idk if id be able to solve that one for u. but big nugs are great to hear regardless!
