of mj and have been tending to the breeding plants. There's 15 seedlings that got put into 1/2gal bags today and another half dozen or seeds went into rapid rooters. I'll be taking the 18 vegging hydro plants (Blue Widow) to the flower room tonight so they can start doing their thing in there and putting however many Dog clones that look promising into the veg unit. There's a bunch of Acapulco Gold clones in the clone box along with the seeds I'm germinating and I'll be taking more clones in about a week I guess.
You dont have to turn them or move them unless they are crisping up, but some people rotate their plants to get light to all parts but some just let them run in spot the entire grow... Some will say the plant will waste energy re adjusting itself to the new light position but this is not proven. I find it hard to believe that rotating them will slow the growth tho.

Embarrassingly I have to ask, "What u talkin bout cof?" OK, I know I promised some pics, and as I stated in the post I just posted, my wife heads to work soon and it me, myself and my new bubbler!Duchieman
What is the measurement for time in Canada? That was the longest 20 minutes I have ever seen.

Hey Duchie, great score you got there!Good day guys. Even with RIU down all day I've gotta catch up. Everythings looking great here as always. Coincidentally with DST's upgrade, I scored another one myself today, FOR FREE! There's a young fellow I know who has reptiles and such, and he had this fixture lying around and I quietly asked about it. It houses 2 32 watt floro bulbs, not CFL's, the ballast is in the housing. The fixture was dropped and the bulbs were damaged. He said they cost 40 bucks a peice to replace them. "Oh, that sucks", I said. "You got any use for it?". he says. "Ah, not sure, maybe", I said. "Well if not, just get rid of it", he says as he passes it to me. All the time I'm thinking gut and refab for a little flowering tent for my males.

Right on 6ers, wifey starts a long run of nights tonight, so I'll be back.
Actually it's already gutted. I'm gonna retrofit 4 sockets for cfl. They will all sit horizontally in a + form, if you were to look from under, or over.Hey Duchie, great score you got there!
Did a quick check on 32watt bulbs for that fixture and even GE bulbs for it go for about $5 each from 1000bulbs.com, so shouldn't cost too much more to buy locally.

(*edit: also, there seems to be a selection ranging from 2700K up to 5100K)
That's definitely a cool looking fixture, very art deco.
Have fun with the laptop, and hope it goes smoothly for you!
Peace!
Yes for sure. I actually had another brain storm. I think I'm going to mount an exhaust fan in the housing, along with a charcoal, and heppa (being a male tent, and why not?) filter. Then I'll look for a mylar tent material or something, and drape it up and around the top of the reflector.Coolness!
Make sure to take some more pics of it for us when you have time.
Good ideas, especially the hepa. No sense worrying about unwanted pregnancies with the ladies.
better keep something up your sleeve for the 420 contest! You guys didn't forget about that did you
Yeah i flushed the shit outta of her before i flowered her. Im just being really careful with the nutes. I fertilized her twice in veg, the first time she did fine but the second round of nutes was too much. This is my first grow with the GDP so i will definitely get her dialed in eventually!
Yup, I hear you. I did it with a few of mine recently. Leaves all went yellow. Was pretty sure it was lockout with the heavy feed I gave them. Anyway, after the flush and all, I found myself reluctant to feed them again too. Just started small and built up, slowly. I'm finding I'm doing more watering than feeding lately, and all is OK. Speaking of, the pots I planted my Afghanis in, with my new coir/moss mix has a fine white mold on the surface. Is this characteristic of the mychorrizae? If so, it looks like it's taking really well! Please tell me that is so. I'm going to snap some pics now, I'll try to get a shot.
