cool..i'll read through the whole thing...good luck on your next run :bigjoint:

lsdn420 · Dec 27, 2009

i've subscribed so i can follow you on the next one :peace:

CROPALOTAPOT · Dec 27, 2009

Glad to see an other conversion to DWC I am sure you will be impressed Isdn420.

Here are some to date shots as well as a time lapse flowering slide show of the Hydroton rock tables....

Just bought crazy huge fan that looks like it could dice me up if I'm not careful... :shock:

Also added House & Gardens new Shooting Powder that is called for this stage in flowering only very healthy plants, it tricks the MJ plant into thinking that its budding all over again and can increase yields of 30 -40% apparently.. We'll see what happens...

MEANGREEN69 · Dec 27, 2009

looking really good CROPALOTOFPOT, whats the flowering time on these girls?

d.c. beard · Dec 28, 2009

Looks really good, especially pic#4 which really shows them budding up the stalks. Those are going to be disgusting in 4 - 6 more weeks!

Can you post a pic of the H&G stuff you bought? I gotta check this out...

delaner59 · Dec 28, 2009

Very nice work. I like any grow that shows some advanced form of botany, shows some research and a little thinking. Nice job.

CROPALOTAPOT · Dec 29, 2009

I Think D.C called it pretty good on that one MEANGREEN 4 -6 more weeks, this is a late flowering strain but makes up for it in its monstrous growth...
Thanks LSD :joint:

Much appreciated...

* I am now using BudXL along with GH's 3 part and KoolBloom it is a House & Garden product as well...
The House & Garden stuff calls for 1 pouch per 100 liters in the first week of the last 3 weeks of the plants life...
I might be a week too soon but I have been changing the res every 4 days lately.

They drink over 20 Gallons in a day some days! (27th & 28th of Dec 09).... Average at about 13 Gallons a day..

Take a look at the third picture here of the stalk. Has anyone had this before? I have never seen an MJ plant try and root from the stalk this hard... I mean all my plants have roots popping out here and there and especially on the lower stalk but this one is nuts! it looks like a whole bunch of maggots trying to get out.. :spew:

d.c. beard · Dec 29, 2009

I have never seen that many attempts at rooting above the ground level on a plant before! Maybe it's just the strain you're working with? Definitely peculiar, but I only work with soil so maybe this is a more common occurrence with hydro...?

MEANGREEN69 · Dec 29, 2009

kool, let us know how the House & Gardens new Shooting Powder works out...im intersted..

If you could imagine how it makes us feel and we are healthy how numbing it would be to someone really in need of some pain relief..

I smoke to help me sleep. At 15 I was diagnosed with chronic insomnia and suffer for acute headaches. I smoke for medicinal purposes. NOT SAYING I DON'T ENJOY IT WHILE I'M ON THE SHIT

wonderblunder · Dec 31, 2009

Looks fuclking awesome. Can you further explain the shooting powder? Scribed plus rep

wonderblunder · Dec 31, 2009

By the way, I took a metal fan blade to the leg when setting up my grow. I took the fan back to the store before the ER.

thewinghunter · Dec 31, 2009

you put these into flower when they are that small?

Joker209 · Dec 31, 2009

I would like to know if this tote with a good air flow would work or should I set it up with a aqua pump and misters / sprayers?
If my calculations are right I should be able to fit around 30-50 3" net pots. Is this an accurate calculation?

Or would this 1 work better?

- I Have such a busy lifestyle that if I didnt smoke chronic I would never sleep... :leaf:

Thanks Wonderblunder. Ouch! going in to the store bloody legged would help the return of that massacre machine.. That things nuts, im going to use it on the next grow when this is over... I wish I could explain the shooting powder more, all I know is that it basically tricks the buds into thinking they are flowering all over again.

Winghunter I put these into flower because we had an electrical issue there that put us into 24 hrs darkness in the middle of veg, so I made the conscious decision to make that my first day of flower so I did not mess with their lighting schedule in a negative way... And I am glad I did because this is my first time working with this strain in large numbers and it really goes nuts in flower!!...

Joker! Nice job buddy, I'm happy to see your following through with DWC. Both totes would work well with the Lowes one looking a little bit more quality.

Looks like less light will get through the Lowes tote. It may be thicker too which would keep the water inside cooler...

But if for some reason picking is not an option both would be sufficient with one having slightly more work needed.

PS: Dont forget to thermal insulate tote..

CROPALOTAPOT · Jan 1, 2010

Joker - How many totes will you be using to be fitting 30 - 50 3inch net pots? I would do about 1 - 5 per tote depending on room size.. But even a closet grow would have a greater yield in a tote if you only put 1 - 3 plants and Scrogged em. (Screen of Green)

Also sprayers\misters do work well but having a second tote with a lid to block light and making it your "controller bucket" with a water pump recirculating the water and air pumps pumping air into the "grow bucket" will work great as well with less overall work needed to be done and maintenance in the future.

But dont get me wrong I am not a lazy grower so if you decide to go with misters & sprayers all the power to ya brutha, you'll still have my help where I can give it, but deep deep down im and DWC man.

wonderblunder · Jan 1, 2010

I will take a look for the shooting powder and see what happens. Be very careful with that fan, don't want it to throw a blade.

CROPALOTAPOT · Jan 5, 2010

Hey everyone. I believe the shooting powder helped out but may have slowed bud ripening for a week or so, in any case they have fattened up nicely and its been a problem free past nine days of growth. With normal grows in this table method I prefer to keep plants a little smaller and have more pruning go on down below "lolly-popping" but I never cut back the plants in flower and that is when this Pineapple strain did nearly ALL of its growing... I was stumped and am now left with bushes! Oh well, lots of hash N' cookies..

They are now getting 0 Grow 8 Micro 16 Bloom 5 Grozyme 15 Sweet 6 Bigbud

CROPALOTAPOT · Jan 6, 2010
