Rip's 3,200 watt sealed shed w/co2 -medical grow-

[quickrip]

Dam man your thinking of everything!!! Thank you for all your work, that we benefit from.

I want to look into a co2 monitor but i think with how my setup is i might just stick with diyco2 for now.

Looking forward to the updates!!

Great grow rock on!!!

Any time Hulk. To tell you the truth the co2 has been nothing but a pain so far. Between the minigen failing and the co2 reg now freezing, Ive been working on getting my co2 enrichment for at least 6 weeks. I know it will be awsome soon but what a royal pain in the ass. BTW nice finish you just had man.

That's why I have yet to bother with it myself. I know that it would increase yield, but my yield is decent without it and I just haven't wanted to fool with it yet.

I cant say that I recommend it as of yet thats for sure.

Man, I am sorry to hear your having issues with co2 . I feel the opposite , I can't believe I haven't been using it all along. My buds are growing far bigger already than I have seen. I do go through a lot. I exchange one of my 20lb cans every 6 days. What's going on with your co2 that is causing issues?

Edit: have you double checked that your don't have leak? My valve froze when it had a tiny leak.

Thanks for the concern Raiderfan. I bought the wrong regulator on the recommendation of my hydro shop. I dont think a leak was the problem. It was not made for use with a controller only a timer. So that was returned and I ordered the cap regulator which should arrive tomarrow. I think this should solve all of my problems, and really the growth rate has been awsome with the co2 . Its just been a real hassle between the faulty generator and now the wrong regulator, but it can only get better now. Happy flowering brother. Its hella funny integra also is on the same day of flower. Lets see who else we can find on here.

Oh cool, I am glad you got it straight. I have the CAP controller/monitor witht he Titan regulator, but I understand the regulator. I guess it isn't made to run as long as it might have to with the generator. I have mine on a timer that pumps the room up to 1500 ppm for 15 mintutes and then off for 5 mins. The Co2 drops to about 800-900 ppm during the 15 mins off. Seems to be working fine and I am not changing the CO2 bottles every three days now. The only issue I had was the CAP controller/monitor started reading the wrong ppm, so I had to take it outside and let it self calibrate again. Isn't the growth rediculaous with the CO2? I know Integra is on the same day isn't he.

Buds are forming up nice the last week. So far looking much better than last run at this point. Have some leaf curling on two of my plants and some of their fan leaves look a little splotchy. Im thinking its cuz I need to flush them, which I was going to do this weekend anyway. Let me know what you think. Opinions please. Heres some pics.

Heres the curling leaves and splotchy fan leaf

And heres what most of the plants look like

Yeah the growth rate is way better for sure. Now im pissed though cuz Ive missed out on co2 all week waiting for the new reg. oh well next week its on.

hey man everything looks on track and moving smoothly.
dont know about the curling but flushing is always a good first step, then a light feeding to gauge their response.
sorry I havent poked my head in lately, been pretty busy my way..but Im back to watch from here to the finale.
all lit on thsi grapefruit diesel I can't put it down!

 

[Murfy]

that almost looks like a potash def

No worries Nb. You know you are always welcome over here. Glad you could stop by.

You might be right but I think it might be due to overfert lockout so Im gonna flush tomarrow and see what happens.

leaf margin rolling is usually cased by over-fertilization. other causes are severe calcium def., over lighting, high heat, overwatering, and under watering. i doubt any of the later are your issues, and agree a flush would be a great idea.

Today it will happen

Lookin good. U supplementing calcium in flowering? I had burn spots all over my first round until I started adding cal-mag half way between rez changes in flower. Doesn't seem necessary in veg, but flower they really demand the Ca. Subd.

Im already using cal mag. How many ml/gal do you use. Ive been using about 5ml.

Sounds about right, I add 10 tsp to a 15 gal rez in the middle of the week between changes. I count on the ca in the tap water for the first 3 days, seems to work great like this.

10 tsp in a 15 gal rez works out to about 4ml/gal so I guess that's probably not your problem.

The leaf curl, is that only on the perimeter of your garden? I've noticed this effect when ramping the nutrients up for the intense areas in the center of the light, you end up over Nitrogen-ing the buds on the perimeter that receive less light (they can't use it all up). All you can do is get better light coverage, or move the plants in some. This localized N toxicity will generally lead to less bud in that area.

I think you may have something here. Im flushing now so this might help remedy the toxicity.

Hey man I like your style - that shed is a machine! Keep up the good work

 

[d.c. beard]

Here now! Looking good, glad you got that hermie out of there. Looks like we both had a problem with that this round.

Beautiful shed!

yup, ball sacks are fucked up. no more seeds for me. clone only from well known strains and clubs, or my own mothers from there.
