thanks for stoppin by guys, the strain is milleniumbud an indica with ties to white widow, its the nices smelling weed man! I trip at how little they smell, so definitely not skunk..lol but they do have nice freakin long white hairs , i sit there and just look at them grow . yeah and the 106 that are hangin outtathe wall are looking nice too, i,m dreamin i,ll get 2 ounces per plant 212 ounces would be a major fucken kill for a first time grow , but realisticaly if i get 1 ounce per plant i,ll still be happy cuz its like 6 1/2 pounds, am I dreamin when i think that???... mathematically it sounds rite strait up but in my head its like a fucken earthquake everytime i realize the potentiel harvest, that plus my 2 little monsters will get me to step 2 "major expansion" ...

Malachi,

Is this really your first grow? If so this is one of the best and most ambitious 1st timer grows that I've seen in awhile. Just read the whole thread from page 1 to present. It's not everyday that I sit my butt down and read a 13 page thread from start to end, with Growall threads, it has my attention and definitely worth reading.

I've been contemplating building a growall for some time, been busy with lighting projects (mainly my CREE XLAMP projects) and my HID waterjacket project. Thermodynamic cooling solutions is my specialty, I dragged my feet for years in building HID water jackets and the current product on the market I'm going to make a whole lot simpler, and no chiller is necessary. I've clearly taken notice of these growall systems and imho, couple that with watercooled HID's and that would be a system to reckon with.

Keep up the good work.

PS, Glad the family issue is civil. :roll:

hey OCsam, thanks man its cool to get cool feedback like this, yes it is my first grow , i never grew weed before neither indoor or out, but i read a lot, took a vow to be a killer disciplined student, workin out good so far, man I learned a shitload of things,but what you speak of i know nothing about termodynamics and stuff..lol I must admit I felt a little caveman like when reading your qualifications...lol

When it comes to growwalls I love them I must admit, just for the ease they are to install and operate, the only thing i did that they don't say is stick them off the wall about an inch so that air can circulate behind just to keep the heat inside the racks down. otherwise I just stuck them up and away I went
I'll be honest, It never even occured to me in the beginning that i could be in over my head .. figured that out sort of halfway into veg,,realizing that I would end up with over 130 plants for the beginner grow..lol well it motivated me to learn freakin quick...
I did read for almost a year before starting the grow and I've been around weed all my life, with 4 smokin brothers all older than me..lol

the one I,m starting on april 20th about, after this one is harvested is gonna be at least 12 growwall racks, so about 264 plants...I can fit 18 racks total in my box i'm sweatin already.lol actually to be honest with you it doesn't scare me its a cool thing to follow the babies through their natural growth process, with a lot of plants It demanded that I spend more time in the lab wich i love to do, I guess it sort of developped into a kinda passion, in the next year this passion will get a lot bigger.....

and thinkin about ur idea of waterjackets and growalls man that could be a mean growin system cuz gettin the lights rite next to the plants would make for a crazy yield thats for sur, cuz ofcourse heat is still my main issue altho its under control cuz weather is warming here and I know i,ll need an a/c soon at the very least.with water jackets I could put 4000 watts instead of 2000 in the box and still manage the residual heat with my blowers. well my next setup will be much bigger I will definitely look into it, didn't know they existed, I knew there was watercooling systems but I thought it was only for ballasts. definitely an interesting thought.

thanks for droppin in and showing such respect by reading my entire thread I appreciate it man

peace.

I started flowering on leap year!!! :) So I am just a few days behind you. Your plants look like they have flowered more then mine. I am growing in soil with 1000 MH. I will take some pics today and put them up on here for you to see. Recently my landlord gave me 48 hour notice of a visit, and I had to completely take down the grow room, and hide my babies in the trunk of my car. They are recovering from that right now, and just have a few bends right now, nothing major! :) So pics will be up today, so we can compare. Did you order seeds from Greenthumb also? If so how many did you start with, and how many males and females? It is GREAT to meet you, and I look forward to keeping in touch and comparing notes!! Good Luck, doesn't look like you need it though! lol..

cool man! yeah I bought from greenthumb bought 10 got 11 out of that 7 germinated 1 died a few days after left with 6 plants and in the end I got 3 females one of wich I kept for a mother plant , so the germination sucked i find but i have myslef to blame, being a newB I did it too quick and not planned enough in the beginning, but things picked up after that, i use Canna ferts, and superthrive boost, I like what's happening so far, I changed my water cycle 2 days ago cuz I found they dried up too quick in the baskets went to 30min every 2 1/2 hrs tonite I'll really see if they like it.

can't6 wait for your pics man ! i,ve been waiting a longtime for this..lol

I also ordered 10, got 11.......all 11 germinated, out of the 11... 9 plants lived, and I ended up with 5 females. Since I only had 11 seeds to start and new I would only end up with 5 females or so, I also started some bagseed that I had from some pretty good stuff, so right now I have 13 females flowering, 5 are millennium. I got a bunch of clones though and planning on flowering them very soon. I will start flowering new ones every 25 days, so I can have a crop every 25 days. But I will probably only have about 15 plants every 25 days! But that is plenty for me to smoke!! :) That is what I am growing it for, for myself so I can save money.

dude isn't 15 plants slightly more than even a heavy smoker can handle? lol mind you the more the marrier rite?..yeah I fucked up on my germination but I started this on the 23 december and i managed to make almost 100 clones so it works out, I have about 30 plants that are N39 that i bought but the rest is all millenium. here is a few pics of how they are tonite

notice the difference between my millenium and the weed clones I bought its like nite and day...that was the las fucken time I bought clones.

Well between me and my wife, we can go through it pretty fast! Trust me! LOL. We go through an ounce or more a week! And that is holding back and not smoking as often as we would like. LOL. So 15 plants every month should be perfect! Your plants look great, I will try to get some pics up of mine tonight, but my millennium buds are not filling in nearly as much as yours, its like they are 2 weeks behind. I am a few days behind plus my trunk problem, probably put me back another 2 days, but still your buds are way bigger, lol. So good job!

I think in general hydro grows quicker and thicker than indoor soil, just a hell of a lot more trouble and time consuming, and i think the trunk incident probably set you back more than 2 days the bending and the stress combined. and mostly a dark trunk! what were you thinking!...lolololol just kiddin man, just kiddin ,, i read your thread searchin for help and just getting criticism..lol couldn't help myself had to pull your leg on this one...lol I'll be looking forward to see some pics .

have a good one man.

so ortho is effective in the grow room, since my growroom is one of my upstairs bedroom is in any way dangerous for people?

i had a spider mite problem once and I found that the best cure was 2 coffee residue you know the coffee thats left in the filter once you've made a perculated coffee pot?
I take 2 of those and mix it in with 1 liter of water and let it sit in for about 30 minutes and then refilter it through a new filter then I spray the underside of my leaves and guaranteed in 1 to 2 days you will see no more mites... just thought i'd drop that by at the same time.

Didn't you say this was your first grow? I thought I saw you say that a bunch of times, but I saw you say this very early on in the post about "one time you had a spider mite problem" LOL. I was just curious if you mean this is your first growall or if you meant first something else. I just assumed the whole time you meant this was the first time you have grown. :) I am working on the thread it is very good so far, keeps me reading!! :)

I had a spider mite situation in the N39 that i bought not all but a few and had to handle it quickly but also delt spidermites in home garden too, freaked the shit out of me,

It is the first time I have ever grown, I've never made a weed plant grow before in my life that is a fact. the only thing I grow is a few flowers in the summer in the back yard.

Hey, have you seen these things?? OmegaGarden.com - Omega Gardens™: Industry Leading Hydroponics Designs for Indoor Gardening check em out! They are pretty cool, thought it might be something you might like seeing. Way too big for me, lol. But they are pretty cool. :)

Yeah I've seen them around for a couple of years and even considered it before making my own time machine.lol but the peeps at the hydro sho^p told me that it was no newb machine cuz the constant rotation apparently can stress the plants cuz it ain,t like wind blowing on the leaves it probably feels more like a slight earthqauke constantly roaring since the wheel turns constantly or regularly rather I would go more for something like this if i was to buy a system.

called ""the cage"" cool name too..lol

Ok well spoke of past problems with growurown yesterday and last nite late I went in the lab to find this white powdery residue on all my net pots and roots, freaked out for the first 5 minutes then took a deep breath (always a good thing to do)keeps us from becoming draconian..lol turns out is a humus spore(i hope i termed it right) its a fungus because of too much humidity so I have to get some defender liquid or a sulfer burner wich i will not use at all... so its juice time tonite and I hope I can get rid of it quick I flushed with fresh water and h202 mix..., anyway thought I'd let you all know.... I'm in a crisis....lol

give you an update when dark cycle ends.....

peace
