I cant wait for the money to come in, i really really need to re do my grow rooms. hoods with glass, better insulation, quieter inline fans and better/cooler balasts.
I get really worried some times with my cheap ballasts, they get so hot. for a few months i had my winged light shade hanging on string :/ Pretty stupid really i was just too lazy to go buy chain or wire.
The story of my growing life
never ends! thats why I love it though
Im actually about to fine tune a few things in my room,,, I installed a few 6" elbows for ducting and like what I see so I'll be getting some more. I also found some vacuum filters at the depot that look like they will fit 6" ducting perfectly! So if I get those in I wont have to clean out my lights as often, they get really really dusty being in my shop ya know... So yeah it never ends. Im actually working on a diy water chiller for my hydro and its actually working great, a little too great lol my water temps got down to 50f before I notice

Hey guys. I'm a little perturbed right now. I chopped my Jack Hammer today, I think day 107ish. Anyway, I made sure I grabbed some shots before I cut her down and I picked out some nice ones to post and somehow they became corrupted. I can view the thumbnails but they will not display in any photo viewing software I have, even Adobe PS Bridge. I have some recovery software somewhere and I'll maybe try later but still, piss me off! Anyway, here' is some off the cutting room floor.

Duchie
Holla brother duchie!
Sorry about the lost pics and time, that kind of stuff gets under my skin soooo bad... but your jackhammer looks real nice
it also looks like you might have dried out the root zone prier to harvest am I correct? I think allot of peeps on the 6 do this, including me.
see you around broham.
I had a ballast go out on me a few weeks ago so I had to return it for a replacement. Well it just came in today along with a new AC hood and two brand new bulbs HPS and a MH. It's the same setup I bought in January that cost me 237 bucks. So now I got two of em but I still need to buy a 600 watt ballast to have em both operational by the time I get my new grow room setup. Two 600's and 400 watt, my new grow room is gonna be rocking with some budage.
Hehehe you gotta love it when sombody screws up like that.
Sounds like your about to really get things crackin! Good luck with the build Dropa!
Yes Dst, that is what i was asking, about the serrations, and yes most likely thrips as well, she has been outside permanently now, and i have to spray ( actually sprayed this morning)
not to mention whiteflies on my tomatos, and the parasitic wasps that kill them.
There is a multitude of bugs in my garden, some good, some bad, so its kinda hard to effectively treat without killing everything.
Yeah I bet all the bugs are going crazy outside at this point, they see your super lush garden like paradise
You are 100% correct about not wanting to kill all the good bugs off because your bad bug problem will actually get worse and your plants would have nasty chemicals on them too
allot of people make this mistake when trying to eradicate unwanted bugs... Its actually one of the reasons spider mites are so rampant now,,, all of their natural predators are getting killed... Interesting little bit I think I shared in mcps veggie thread but I'll say it here too,,, Some variety of bean actually releases a hormone when attacked by mites, this hormone actually attracts spider mite predators to come and save the day! Take from it what you will but I thought that was very cool.
for now 600 peeps.
