Growitup Greenhouse 2011

[billcollector99]

Looks like you and I are the only ones cruz, lol and my GH is shutdown right now because it is in need of some heavy maintenance. The ladies are all looking gorgeous.

If you are ever interested in the drive, I could hook you up with some cuttings of the pre-98...

Yeh man thats very true. I am guilty of it as I don't take as much interest in indoor hydro grows as I do coco because It's nice to compare yours to someone elses because it's not like I could compete with a hydro grow in terms of yield and you can't really get a sense of taste/ potency through pictures. Ive also found from following and reading a lot of journals that the majority don't like to stick around unless there's some flowering going on and as soon as people cut up and post the weight most people just go onto the next one, sort of like a child wanting something new and shiny haha.

Yours and Fdd were the two only outdoor grows I followed last year, but for me seeing the build of the greenhouse was just as good as the grow, think it's because you update often but it's always quality not just spamming with out of focus or huge volumes of pictures.

Definitely better to play it safe than sorry, unfortunately greed gets the better of some people though. So you're running TD, bubba and the train this summer? It'll be interesting to see which different phenos you get through as well. Should be a good summer man.

Hotphyre has one and a custom shed, https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/371549-calling-all-greenhouse-growers.html
There are a couple more, one guy just got ripped, sad story, no link.

Hum, I may just take you up on that cutting, at least get one and compare in the end.
So like how far is a whales vagina from the south bay? LOL shoot me a pm.

Sure will, I can have 24 vegging girls so I plan on popping all these seeds and selecting the best phenos. Also getting a few cuttings and clones, grow them out a bit then select three winners for the back row and screen them at about 4 foot. My guess is I will end up with four Tangerine Dream in the front then one Train wreck, one Bubba kush and one more. Probably another Bubba or Blueberry skunk. I still got a bunch of Casey Jones left or she would be the third.

Then I can take five and toss them in the cab, flower those out while the girls are vegging and give the rest to my buddy for his yard. That way we can compare train wreck strains. Mine will be in soil under a 400w Ceramic metal halide, not sure of the nutes yet. You're under a 400w also right?

 

[HotPhyre]

Hey cruz im really excited bro i got a guy to send me a branch of casy jones, the joe shmoe cut or something like that. the one thing i know is its from a legit source and cant wait to get these cuttings to root.

A man with a plan, I like it. Sounds like you've got everything sorted and whos going where lol. Yeh I'm under a 400W also but I don't have as much space as I'd like. Only 80x80x160 so width will be an issue with 3 plants on the go but hopefully I'll be able to manage it pretty well.

That's awesome man, I don't know the difference between the cuttings but I know you been looking for a while.
So like you dont have enough branches to deal with??? Ha! I read you were going to start clearing trees today for your new home.

Ya dude got the branch in the mail also and made 3 clones out of it. Ya I cut today a little more than half of the trees and I'm poop'd and now need to go to sleep soon so I can hit it hard again tomorrow and finish it up. The well and spetic install next week than hopefully move in the house in 3 weeks, dang things moving way to fast lol

how was it sent to you HotPhyre? I am thinking of sending a couple clones to someone, but want them to survive. I have read some stuff online, but it is always nice to hear of some successful ships

 

[HotPhyre]

Well he shiped a branch that i cut and made clones out of, he wraped the stem with soaked wet papertowels than taped over it, shaped it like a U and he had it in a sealed bag ones from those little home machines than shipping over night USPS in a little box about the size of a VHS case.

I have also heard of people getting rooted clones than wrapping the root system with apertowels than taping over it and sticking them in toilet paper cardboard centers or papertowel, and stuffing 4 of them in a Old VHS case and in a ziplock in one of those little boxes.

i guess there is quite a different ways to do it lol.

 

[cruzer101]

Yea gumball, If you keep the stems damp they will survive a couple days unless it gets to hot and cooks them.
Piece of a damp rag or paper towel around the bottom of the stem sealed in a ziplock should do it.

Hotphyre, my bad, when I read you were clearing trees I thought you were building the dam house.
If you are moving in 3 weeks that cant be the case. Congrats on the new place man.

 

[HotPhyre]

Haha ya im not building like a log cabin or anything haha, i bought a manufactured home which is ready to go, so just clearing trees and throwing in a septic and well and were ready to rock, they say it only takes about 2-3 weeks for them to set it up i might be more like 5 weeks before move in but i got HIGH hopes lol.

 

[gumball]

Thanks guys, I was thinking something along them lines, but the paper towel rolls and VHS cases is golden information.

 

[JealousGreen]

I carried a cut branch inside a large ziplock bag inside my pants onto an airplane. Brought a cut of nl5xskunk1 to a very happy friend in Virginia. All rooted no problems.

 

[cruzer101]

That's crazy man. Na, I wouldn't recommenced that, and if you did mail something I wouldn't use us mail, that's federal.

 

[WOWgrow]

The G 13 coming down this weekend then cruz?

 

[gumball]

oh, so like UPS? I got shipped some bud, trust me I was shocked it was a surprise unbeknownst to me by a great friend, and it was shipped USPS. I opened the box, and was told there was a cookie inside, so I wanted the cookie boy what a cookie

We got a bit of a heat wave, gave me an idea of whats coming this summer. Outdoor temps hit mid 80"s high temp in the greenhouse were 101° yesterday so I am still 15° hotter then outside. Gotta work on that. I got the drying shed plumbed to the scrubber now. The dampers that I got when closed still let air through so I got some thick weather stripping and sealed them up.

 

[HotPhyre]

Nice dude that a clever idea with the weatherstripping, It was hotter than hell here too.

 

[WOWgrow]

Holy shit, crazy you're getting those temps already. It hit 15 C here the other day and everyone went crazy, like a moth to a flame lol.
