Those are monster colas doublejj!
Can't wait to see you finish them out. Also I got my trimmer, but upon setting it up and running it at the highest setting, the fan blade starting brushing the grate and throwing sparks. Was pretty hilarious how shitty it ran and I assume it was damaged in shipping. Waiting to hear back from the company. Looks like I'll be hitting my indoor with another few PK boosts then flush while I wait for this trimmer fix up.
Stay safe and hope you keep dry!

Sorry to hear about your trimmer. I had to move the speed control decal a little bit to get it to line up with the 3 speeds. My blades were brushing slightly (not throwing sparks) when I first turned it on. I just kinda tweeked it a little to quiet it down. It still brushes but only slightly, I think it will work fine. Although it is louder than I thought, and I'll probably wear ear plugs. Have you tried "adjusting" the grate?....might be easier to try to fix it yourself, than have it replaced. The guy does have 99% +feedback so good luck.....

sorry to hear about your trimmer. I had to relocate the speed decal a little bit to get it to line up with the knob, but it has all 3 speeds. The blade was scraping (not throwing sparks) on mine also, I just adjusted it a little and it's only lightly touch now. It should work fine. although it is louder than I though and I'll probably wear ear protection. have you tried 'adjusting' the grate? it might be easier than trying to send it back. Although the guy does have 99% + feedback....good luck.....Edit; sorry for the double post. I was having trouble with RIU for awhile and somehow the first post didn't show up.....until I reposted.....

Those girls are looking good. Someday I'll be able to have my plants close to me. Guerilla till then. So what strains did you grow? What's the best one so far?

These are 3PK & 3GDP, they are the Indica dom strains that have done the best in the carport.....good luck

thank you. I like to use 100gl smart pots. The soil is 50% bag soil (Happy Frog & Ocean Forest), & 50% fresh compost & worm castings & perlite, w/a little dolomite & a little Rainbow grow fertilizer. The links at the bottom of my posts will take you to past grows with lots of info & pics. good luck.....

Man if you watch craigslist, I see the frames all the time for $50-$100. Carport grow houses are so cheap to make & works so well, I have no problem recommending them to everyone. There is nothing to them really. They can be put up & taken down very quickly without tools of any kind, yet they solve many outdoor pot growing issues. No matter where your growing, a carport would help your grow........good luck.......

Hey DoubleJJ I got my trimmer all sorted. Turns out there is a hex key on the fan blades that you can loosen and better position the blades. After lowering the blades to keep from hitting the grate and sparking it runs much more quite without sparking. Seems like it will be kicking some ass after all!
