    Dave's Dual Area 51 Grow

    That damn Tahoe was touching the light the other day, so I raised it about 8 inches. Now she’s already almost touching it again. ⬇ The upper leaves are reaching for the sky, but as you go down the plant they get more curled and dried towards the bottom. I got another gadget that I’m...

    I was too hasty to explain it. I shoulda known that YOU'D know the movie. You come up with a lot of obscure movie references. 8)

    Is your wheeled SCROG setup still rolling good now that your plants put on some weight? I noticed that weight makes a big difference with mine, especially when I fill the res with 5 gallons of water.

    Tabitha’s bouncing back. She’s actually getting too tall now. I need to raise that light panel. All 3 plants are flowering now: Thinking about how I’m going to set up the water tank in this closet. I’ll need to set it up where I can reach it and then slide the whole thing into this...

    Had a pretty serious problem with one of my two smaller plants when I changed the water last Friday. Tabitha the Tahoe OG plant stretched out a lot and when I pulled her out of the closet a bunch of her branches just flopped over. You can’t really see it in the following pics, but I was afraid...

    Now that is awfully strange and disturbing. I guess he's happy that he doesn't have to carry that pocket watch up his behind anymore! :P

    Tabitha & Libby stretched a bit more than I’d like since I began the flowering phase. I think that Libby, the Haze plant, stretched the most with some long, bare stems between nodes. :???: Here’s how tall they’ve all gotten: You can imagine the fresh pot aroma that comes out of the...

    Those first SCROG plants really got taller this past week. My LSD plant is about the same age at Day 13 into flowering, and she looks very similar. And I think that my younger 2 plants are about the same age from seed as Lafonda is, but they've gotten pretty tall. Looking forward to that DWC...

    Yeah, that's the Cree bulb. I got 2 of them for side lighting. They do get warm, but you can hold them between your fingers without feeling to hot. I don't know what CFLs you're comparing to them, but I know they produce more lumens per watt than CFLs. I've used 200 watt CFLs in the past and...

    Yeah, I'm hoping that the water gets replaced from the backup slowly enough that it won't completely replace the water that's still up in the Perlite. If it isn't slow enough, I can try some skinnier tubing to slow it down.

    Closet Full of Weed! All 3 plants are sucking up nutes like crazy. I have to add more nute in between water changes, because the tds drops so fast. I also need to keep adjusting the pH up every day as the plants eat their food. I’ve never had plants eat so well before. No signs of...

    So far so good. I've had it set up for a day or so. Tiny water bubbles collect inside the tubing, but nothing that could ruin the siphon action. And with plants constantly drinking water, it will be flowing... very slowly, but still flowing, so that might reduce the amount of air bubbles...

    Ready to set up auto waterer… …next time I change the water. All I did was drill a few holes and attach cable clamps to the hoses inside each container so that they don’t pull out accidentally. And the clamps release real easy for when I change the water. This is the 2.5 gallon bucket...

    It does suck, but at least it's a little deeper than the 18" deep cabinet I was using before. I am so tempted to expand into the rest of the bedroom, but I'm not quite that diseased yet. :blsmoke:

    Looking super, GB! I especially liked that "top" view photo. Lots of tops popping through that screen.

    The 2 little baby girls are almost catching up to Lusinda. I wish my closet were wider than 2 feet. Lusinda’s pressing against the back wall & doors.

    I've been lucky this summer because it hasn't rained here very much. We need to move to Denver, where they get 300 days of sun during the year (so I've heard).

    Hey, GB! Glad to see you back! I thought maybe you went on vacation or something. I hope the pain gets better. Has it been raining a lot by you? I get those weeks usually when we have a week of rain for some reason. I'd never last in Seattle. I hope it's getting better for you! I'm...

    I was thinking about this some more and I think I can get it to work pretty easy. The only thing that I'm worried about is that air bubbles might form inside the tubing and screw up the siphon. Depending on the position of the water jug in my closet, one of the tubes might have to be pretty...
