    My Wardrobw Setup

    I just noticed the comment/question about your odor control plan. I use an Odor Sok, they are fairly cheap and come in all sizes. When they stop working you just wash, dry, and reuse. the one I use is about 14" long which I have hooked up to a 465 CFM squirrel cage fan, fits perfectly...

    My Wardrobw Setup

    Thanks!:bigjoint: Before I came up with the design I spent a lot of time researching websites that sell prebuilt grow boxes, like this one: http://www.homegrown-hydroponics.com/ Google Stealth Grow Cabinets, lots will come up. Here's a pic of what I was trying to describe when I suggested...

    SCROG question

    Yes, there is definitely a way of avoiding it. It is not necessary to weave the plant through the wire. As the plant grows up through the wire push it back down and across towards the next opening. Use twist ties to keep unruly branches in place. Or....You could let the plant grow up through the...

    My Wardrobw Setup

    What kind of material are those drapes made of and where did you get them? Are they reflective on one side? That's a nice setup and very close in height to my cabinet. Correct me if I'm wrong but since you are using CFL's I'm assuming that you plan on keeping the plants somewhat short. If...

    How long can you keep taking clones from a mother plant??

    You could grow them as often as needed and could continue to take clones from the mom as long as the mom stays in the veg cycle (18/6) and is alive. I don't keep a mom, I just take cuttings from the bottom of the plant just before I stick it into the flower cycle. I keep my plants in veg (approx...

    What is the tastiest strain you have ever smoked???

    I wish that I could say that I have tried any of the strains listed above....but I can't. The tastiest strain I've ever had is Permafrost. It's a deep and somewhat sweet smoke. The buds are densly covered in trichs that pop and crackel like a camp fire. Here's a pic of a PF lollipop 4 weeks...

    BlackJack.

    That's really interesting, it makes me question Nirvana's seed quality consistency. For me, at 10 weeks of flowering it was far from couchlock (mostly amber trichs). I'm 9 weeks into flowering on my second BJ grow and that bad boy is still packing on weight. I'm going for couchlock this time...

    10 days and no sign of roots (areocloner)

    I take a 45 degree cut under water then I score it along one side (about a 1/2 to 1/4 inch long slice, depending on the size of the clone) keeping it under water, then I dip it in clone gel. In my experience the roots always grow out from the damaged area first. I wouldn't worry about adding...

    10 days and no sign of roots (areocloner)

    He's right, don't give up. BTW, I've tried it both ways, (keeping the aerocloner on 24/7 and 15min On/ 15min OFF) Both worked but the 15/15 made them root a few days faster than 24/7 (not a substantial difference).

    10 days and no sign of roots (areocloner)

    I use an aeroponic clone bucket. So far 100% of all cuttings have developed roots. I'm growing perpetual with 3 different strains (White Rhino, Blackjack, Permafrost). The WR developes roots within a few days, the BJ takes about a week and the PF takes almost 3 weeks. When I take the cutting...

    Starting over, kind of...

    Here's a pic of my permafrost about 4 weeks into flowering. She was a small clone that I put in the flower area to free up space in my veg area. PF is my personal favorite out of the strains I've grown so far (Permafrost, Blackjack, White Rhino, White Widow). PF gets chrystally as a Mo-Fo...

    BlackJack.

    I have grown 3 generations of Blackjack from Nirvana. Great bud but the plants are hermies so you will most likely end up with seeds in your buds like I did. I have also tried Nirvana's White Rhino which I didn't like as much as the BJ. Both strains root quickly if you plan on taking...

    First Grow: 400 watt HPS, Permafrost, White Widow, White Rhino, Blackjack

    Blackjack is great. It was a tie between the PF and BJ. The PF gives me more of a full body buzz with an somewhat sweet smell and flavor. The BJ gives me more of a squint eyed stoned feeling (my preferred high). BJ's smell (IMO the only downfall) is pungent, skunky, strong and the flavor is...

    First Grow: 400 watt HPS, Permafrost, White Widow, White Rhino, Blackjack

    Well Folks, today was harvest day for the WR and BJ. It looks like I will end up with a little over 3 ounces of dry weight between the 3 plants combined (Only 2 plants hanging in the pic). Here's a peek at the next group which should be finished in about 4 weeks, WR, BJ, and best looking of...

    First Grow: 400 watt HPS, Permafrost, White Widow, White Rhino, Blackjack

    I came across your DIY carbon filter thread when I did a search for carbon filters on RIU. I considered your design (and I still am) but found several other threads that recommended using the material I got from Home Depot as a filter. I thought I would give it a shot since it didn't require a...

    First Grow: 400 watt HPS, Permafrost, White Widow, White Rhino, Blackjack

    My cabinet, which is out in the garage, has managed to not only stink it up out there but it also reaks inside the house, so I got creative and doubled up my odor control efforts. I had a spare odor sok which I connected at the exhaust point using plumbing fixtures. I also bought some charcoal...

    First Grow: 400 watt HPS, Permafrost, White Widow, White Rhino, Blackjack

    Thanks Jiggyfly, I really appreciate the complement. A lot of thought and time went into the design of my cabinet. If I could rename my thread I would call it "How NOT TO grow weed"....lol. I had no idea going into this that a degree in botany was a prerequisite...lol. Needless to say its...

    What's up IGLAW. Did you ever start a Blackjack grow? I would like to compare pics so I can see the true potential of the strain. I was scanning through your thread and didn't see where you stated what strains you were growing (I probably missed it). What strains did those monsters come from?

    First Grow: 400 watt HPS, Permafrost, White Widow, White Rhino, Blackjack

    The PF and BJ are starting to amber so I started the flush this morning. I hope to chop em just before or just after Thanksgiving. The WR looks like it will probably be a week or two behind. BTW, about a week ago I cut a small bud off of the PF to sample. It was finally dry enough to smoke...
