I've read all 9 pages and want to thank you for the documentation and pictures, awesome thread. I have one question, if you can press pucks and squish those, is there a reason I couldn't press my trim and sugar leaves? I use a spin pro to prep buds and it knocks quite a lot of trichomes and...

if there is a tipping point (which I've never really heard of in MI) it is going to vary by jurisdiction and/or utility company. If you are "legal" I wouldn't sweat it. If you are in a "legal" state I wouldn't sweat it much.

I've been considering the same type of "dry root" setup. I'm thinking it should work, if the pump comes on for 30 min every 30 it will be on all the time? Did you mean it comes on every hour for 30 minutes?

My Q for you is about cooling. I'm in also MI have have been growing since 2008. Sure in Jan/Feb you won't have a problem but you will in Mar-Dec, maybe year round. Where is the cool fall air coming in from? where are you exhausting? at what CFM? 2 x 1,000W will heat the hell out of an...

I've begun to enjoy the fruits of a longer hydroponic Veg period. It seemed that many growers are (were) interested in minimizing the grow cycle, but for legal reasons (plant count laws) I'm inclined to use fewer, older and larger plants and a wider canopy. I'm about 4 yrs into hydro and have...

Thanks, I am going to use your 2L bottle quick wash with a new batch (hopefully tonight).... Are you thinking the oil will float and I can then cool the mixture then take the top layer of oil off the water? will the clorophyll sink?

I have Hexane 12 oz, and Acetone 8oz I thought about buying a distiller to recap the Hexane? What other equipment?

I agree, and will use your method, oh wise one. Second promotion in 3 posts - I read it last time. However, I am asking as I would like to: a) learn more about filtering and dewaxing anyway b) see if I can salvage something with what is actually a "second wash" with a lot of ISO rinsing. The...

I know it is cholorphyll, is there a way to remove it?

I really don't want to lose the terpenoids (aroma). I don't think there is "much" wax but wondered if I skipped that step and simply ran it through the charcoal? I really only wanted to lose the dark color. It is pretty near full melt as it is. Also could I use ISO vs. EtOH vs. Acetone for...

Why? May I ask?

I made a pretty tasty QWISO hash with 99% ISO, it's pretty damn good... BUT it is very dark in color (brown/green). I've been reading about de-waxing with Acetone https://mycotopia.net/forums/holding-tank/63232-bho-butane-honey-oil.html#post832562 And the "next step" advised there to use a...

I could have been wrong but I sensed a bit of condescension? Anyway I start there to provide a real update....I had suspected that I may have over tightened the bulbs in my overzealous eagerness as I set up probably too quickly. I didn't want to lead the crowd here as I sort of hoped someone...

No children, but I'm a bit concerned about your support of euthanasia There are 3 smoke alarms and a CO alarm in the basement and more on the living floors, I had similar concerns upon seeing the first meltdown. But the Raptor hoods are significant and have contained everything easily.

Yes all the ballasts are identical, in fact I had a 600W ballast from the same mfr -Welthink, and it was about 4" shorter didn't fit the joists ;)

not bad at all, reminds me of my homebrewing days, we needed to chill gallons of hot wort ASAP to pitch the yeast, then months later cool lukewarm keg beer. Great stoner assembly BUT buy 12 ft of copper tubing, you'll see huge efficiency gains if you can get 12 twists in that bucket, fill it...

Good guess - but the ballasts are supposed to be self switching, nothing for me to change/move/switch

a single 8" inline duct fan... no kinks, exhaust is clear, all 8" flex ducting in one window and out another.... The room is quite large and didn't seem to get "too hot" even before I got the A/C working (sadly about 2 weeks after moving in), in room temps during that time didn't get much above...

I"ve had 3 (of 8) 1000W HPS bulbs melt in the first 6 weeks with this setup. The glass gets so hot one melted a hole in it, another sort of melted right off the base. The third may have simply blown as there were floating bits inside it From the box - 40A Double Pole service run...

As I seek out light and climate control systems I'm wondering if there are specific reasons to like or hate any of the following - CAP XGC-1e - Xtreme Greenhouse Controller Titan® Controls Kronus 4 Sentinel CHHC-4
