That is a crazy dvd player sized chunk of roots!! That is an inspiration to all hydro growers with those lil stringy roots!!!!!







i chopped the shoebox and one girl from the space shuttle.

The yield is a little better from the plant in the shoebox,
and the other one is not bad yield either.

Here is the shoebox plant drying on a window screen.



here is the plant still left in the shuttle.
She has donkey dick colas.




here are some root shots from the shoebox.

Damn Earl I don't mind the root porn, but thats gotta qualify for Chubby-porn!

Man If you could get that plant to focus the energy it used to create those roots, on producing buds, you could get pounds!

Everything is fine here.
I am curing all that bud,
about forty mason jars.

My next launch will be in Sept,
when summer fun is over.

Hey man a few quick questions on design how dose the water get from the rez without the pump back to the one with it ( i see the small pipe on the bottom of the tubs is that a return line ? )
and also what the fan looking thing in the pumps tub for ??
And with your ro system is that gravity feed into your rez tank via the flaot
Cheers man Wicked setup btw loved the pics :D

I'm growing 8 plants in hempy buckets
so I can find a mother.
I planted them on 1 sept
and looks like there is gonna be a girl or two
from the 9 that germinated.
So I'm just waiting for them to get big enough
so I can take enough cuts
to put four plants in the space shuttle.
Hopefully in another couple of weeks.
they are all Purple cindy.

STS-5


The Purple Cindy beans from HGS
which I received back in Nov 2008


Starting out in the window for about a week.


6 weeks from seed to this hempy bucket mother.


Cuts in the 4 inch tube until they root,
then I will move them into the space shuttle.


74ºf 200ppm sensigrow +20ppm F1 with silica blast to 5.6ph

I just online ordered some AK48 form Nirvana.
I think I can run them quick
if their reviews are correct...48-56 days !

have you followed any grows of that strain here on RIU? If I remember correctly I think I saw a couple go as long as 9 weeks.... but of course, its all about the method to the madness...... I would assume they would finish up nicely in that time frame for you in the shuttle :)

Very nice grow earl, have you ever owned a salt water aquarium or are you just great at hydroponics naturally? A lot of your op is reminiscent of my friends Reef Aquarium setup, (very over the top), good effin job bro. I learned a few things reading through ur threads! Now I need to go put some of it into practice....\\

BTW, I hope you keep updating. subscribed.

If I get the AK seeds I'll see how fast I can do them.

I have never owned an aquarium,
but the aquarium guys are a great source
for equipment and knowledge.

I got the AK48 seeds from Nirvana
and planted 6 beans in RO only
on the 26th of Oct


5 sprouted about 5 days later


I started them on AN nutes at 100ppm and 5.6ph
about 4 days after they sprouted


Today I moved them into the space shuttle
and raised the nute load to 240ppm SensiGrow
@5.6 pH and 66ºf
