Thanks my man! The good news is there were alot less dud plants! Almost clean in flower, only one more flower run left that had issues that gets chopped in 4 weeks, then smooth sailing out of the 38 plants in the sog only 6 were dudded, that's a huge change, it didn't really affect the yield too much because I knew there were going to be some I just flowered extra. I'm stoked to see how this next batch will come out being all good from the start, it's been a whilllllleeee lop

Woops, I forgot to post the new nanolux lights, here they are check out the reflection on the hoods, was complete dark in there and only a camera flash from 15' away!

Just checked out midnight farms. Man they have dosi dos, wifi, clone cut of blue dream etc. Man you are lucky that you can just take clones and go. I would never buy seeds again. Lol......

Lol, they have tons of nice gear that's for sure, but all that gear came from popping beans too

Thanks brother! I'm praying, I dont see anything wrong like I usually do (I can easily tell most of the time when somethings wrong) but so far so good!!

Got the room set! Trellis together, lights up, buckets together, res filled, test run complete, just need to add the plants tomorrow, wish me luck if they get too big I'll flower the other batch, I should know within the first 10 days if it won't be manageable, but I'm hoping my ninja training skills work out

I got them lollipopped and ready to bring to the flower room, lanky things they are, I think I'm gonna super crop them 10" down to start flower, damn roots all grew together again, but it wasn't as bad this time and I got the roots trimmed and none of them drooped this time luckily

Man, they were wayyyy too big lol, I used 6 of the smallest ones and went with the smaller sized animal cookies. Got animal cookies, mendo Breath and a few black Lime in the front that I can get to easiest to control them. I super cropped em down a foot because they were already touching the highest the net can go lol. Gonna use the rest for clones


Also, was wondering why the black lime that's 5 weeks in to flower looks like 3 weeks. Man, I'm never using insulated during again, it's way to bulky, gets in the way, heavy, hard to use, doesn't bend easy and BLOCKS THE LIGHT TO THE PLANTS if it's not insanely micromanaged haha. Damm blr hasn't seen a bit of good light the whole grow, the other buds are 8x the size grr. I'm never going to use regular hps hoods again, way to bulky, ducting everywhere, heavy ugh. Wish I knew pulled the trigger on the De earlier, never really knew what they were all about lol. I mean look at this crap from the ducting blocking the light, just look at it! Lmao


I have a whole tray of babies that are ready to transplant so I'll have to start thinning down the herd. I've been throwing out anything that even looks a little wierd. Only had a couple so far so not too bad been hand watering these damn near 2x a day for 2 weeks now, can't wait to put em in an empty tray for flooding

That is such a tight setup bro, magnificent
No good about the ducting and the insulated blocks too, hope you can get some bulk out of the BLR!!

Alpha,

Im going to run 2 of these systems in my tent. You think i should leave the controller buckets outside the tent and run the tubing in?

The first night with the new lights went great! Plants look good, no drooping from the crazy super cropping and for real, that ducting is ridiculous lol, it's like 28" around, it's freaking massive. It does its job, but I'd rather just use the non insulated ducting if I need to use it again, that stuff never got in the way lol

Definitely, keep the res /controller outside if possible. Too much heat to be in the tent, the water would get Hella warm

Also, each pack of buckets only has 1 with and end connector. How did you make a 3rd for 3 rows?

Great to hear bro! Glad it's going well

The first time i took about an 8" piece of tubing and folded it in half and duct taped the hell out of it, leaving enough tube at the end to slip on the bucket. Now I have 1/2" end cap plugs and I cut a 5" peice of tube and plug it, then slip it on the bucket. If ya use the tape method, use gorilla tape, that good black tape, and make sure it'll hold for the whole grow

So just cut some tube, get a 1/2" end cap and slip it on? It holds?
