Hey flowa, I think u said ur last grow u didn't use the pineapple rush. How did it taste, any difference??
Click to expand...
I liked both ways, the pineapple rush giving a distinctive aroma, and no overwhelming flavour which was great, but being able to get massive frost without is awesome i must admit. I dont think they are needed really, but for the extra fruity aromas, i think they are easily worth it!

Looking Good Flow! Can't wait to see the Gnine go through swell.

Took a few snaps of my tent setup. Most of my setup was inspired by this thread.

4 ft by 4 ft tent. Two 10 gallon buckets, flowering, week 4, Swiss Cheese from nirvana.

Co2 enriched and UVB of course. I have an Autopilot greenhouse master controller controlling my Co2 and dehumidifier.

The last photo is edited, I couldn't get a good side photo so I edited it for everyone to see the massive size of these plants.

These plants look HUGE to me, bigger then the 8 coco coir plants I had before. To help imagine, the red buckets have a 17 inch wide diameter at the top and the tent is 48 inches wide.

I'm feeding them 1250 PPM hanna! And they love it, drinking/evaporating a gallon of water a day now.

Thanks for the knowledge, I'm surprised its not being kept secret to be very honest.

Peace.Damiana

Looking Great also Damiana!! I can't keep something like this a secret!? secrets are what made this world we live on so uninformed :( I think its every persons right to know how to grow a plant artificially, its a learning experience and you find out many life lessons along the way.

Good luck with your new style of growing :) i know you'll be fine!

Nice, Flowa. Thanks for the response, Tips! I'm going to have to adjust my Res now! These lines have been a real hassle, considering they have a natural curve to them from the roll they were on. A canal bottom pot? I haven't seen anything like that here in the states. It's hard enough trying to find one relatively close to your size without drainage holes.
Click to expand...
The canal is just a section where its flat against the ground and raised up to meet the inner pots drain holes, this allows maximum drainage so nothing gets left in there and goes stinky.
There is many combinations to do this, and efficiently too.

Hey Flowamasta,

So far my bucket is working a lot better than DWC ever did for me. But about a week after planting my little plant in it, she already grew a long, fish-boned root out the bottom of the inner bucket, right through the paint strainer bag that holds the Perlite in. Seems to be ok, but has this ever happened to your plants?

Edit: My buckets are only 5 gallons.

I'm glad its working out for you! i can only hope you can find a winner for the pot sok situation, as i myself have never had a single issue or blockage. My system is 50 litres around 15 gal... This system is considered aggressive and pushing growth to the limits, so expect BIG things ;) my plant is now touching corner to corner, i've been busy trimming in excess of 1lb of leaf to let light through to the lower sections. Still looking a little crowded up top in my opinion! but i should be able to sort things out. i'll get some pics after. I turned to flower tonight, as she's getting MASSIVE, and near the lights so........ dont know where ive been!? she's more than doubled in less than a week!!

keen for pics anyone??

Very nice sea of green there, dude! I see it's already up near the lights. You're going to get a tent full of bud I think.

:) I hope its not too crowded! i literally have removed nearly 30% of the plant to allow enough breathing room up top! I'm also running a new fan/filter combo now and amazingly able to keep temps at a reasonable 29 degrees with 2 x 600 wattters! More than happy, she is on Flower nutes from Advanced Nutrients Gold Range, and add.27 + Cyco's B1 boost, and silica.

Hi, Flowamasta. Thanks for your reply to my question. I figured the fluorescents work work in a pinch, but I ended up getting an inexpensive bulb in town today from the local grow shop. I figured I can use it as a spare for another grow after this one. I don't confuse it with the Hortilux I had in there, but it was half the price. I was feeling guilty about not spending a little money on my babies. They're doing so nicely, and I'm so close!

I am growing out some master bubba from clones and just doing a few plants in my 4x4 tent. I thought they were huge until I looked again at some of your plants. I am humbled. :) No huge buds/plant like yours, but I'm pretty happy with the buds. The flavor on this strain is like tasting a flower. Very sweet, esp with a vape.

I have the bonsai plants growing out in the garden while the clones veg in the cabinet. When I find a winner I will keep one of each strain and dump/gift the others. Then I will start out next spring with the perfect strain :) I may pollinate a few of the bonsai plants also to get some crosses to grow out. Orange and Bubblegum sounds good :)

Wow! Looks like you have some nice plans happening! Everything looks nice and organized, and ready to take off! Great to see, and everything looks nice and healthy thats for sure :) I just cant wait to see the greenhouse full to the roof :p

Awesome input Mo! I love the blue moon, interesting how different the angle is from where we are! I'm trying to do some night photography with some star constellations as some are really close at the moment and make for some spectacular time lapse pics :)

Yea! I got a big carried away, lost track of time, and a few days went by and a few tips got burned and nearly got out of hand, but she's sorted now, and had a massive trim around the tips, so much sweating happening, unbelievable :( not that thats a bad thing right now, as long as i stay on top of it and clear things out it will be fine, the 2nd net is in now, i'm not expecting much stretch at all, and i'm giving her an early flush and some fresh nutes to kickstart her flowering :) XL really exploded things.... alot more than i anticipated. See if i can handle her!! I;m so going to replace the crate underneath though!!!, lifting the pot was ridiculous, and that was without water in it. A big chunk of foam is coming up next week! wish me luck the milk crate holds, or this plant could topple the entire tent!, never have i grown one this large :weed:

That XL really makes them explode! I need to give my outdoor girls a hit of P (no not pee).

It took me a second to recognize the orientation of the moon from your picture. 90 degrees counter clockwise.

I just realized that the Mulanje Gold is now 6 inches above that ring. It has grown more quickly than I expected. It is the only plant that is not stunted by the over pruning and late flowering. All of the others just have tiny buds growing. Although they are starting to get darker green and show some new vigor after being moved to the 19 L from the 3 L pots. The roots are starting to reach the super soil :)
