Fatalack. I need door trim and crown molding. I just had my garage drywalled and had the room built. I still need to texture the entire garage. Paint it and then ill add the finishing touches.
Dspec I have a heating pad bit the Damn thing turns its self off after like an hour. Wish I could get one from the hydro store that was cheaper. You know what I mean. They always get ya with the prices.

The prices tell me about it.That is always one of my major set backs . luckly I grew up in the area where I live and have all kinds of friends.That have all kinds of jobs that eventually help me out.Like:2 friends construction workers any thing from dry wall to screws,wood, molding,ect. 1 freind that is a painter all kinds of paint textures and lets not forget calking (don't to forget to calk every crack hole or screw head if you want to prevent air leeks and keeps most bugs out) I also have 4 friends in the heating an AC department,fuck these guys hook me up with filters,fans,duct boosters and AC units(the one I have now was not free but got a hell of a discount) Me and my boys turned my garage into a complete man cave with insulation dry wall paint,pool table,fun house mirror on the ceiling, dart board and many other novelties for some reason no one seems to notice a weird room in the corner or at least no one ever asked me about it.:?:
I also need to invest in to getting a decent heating pad as well but for now a warm closet works just fine sort of:?:

Tell me about it. Light leaks are the worst. I also have the bro hook up for plumbing and some other stuff around the house but no where near the deal that you have. I like doing the work my self or Atleast trying to help.#1 it saves me money and #2 I won't have to pay someone to help me next time. Anyways your man cave is what I would like mine to be like in the near future. I have to finish the floor too with some nice oppoxy (sp) finish. Did you do that to your concrete floor?

Yeah I know exactly what you mean.
Watering tonight, any of you guys use. Mad farmer moab mother of all blooms? I use the fox farm trip and Botanicare line. This is going to be my first water with moab and I am going to give them just a taste with cal mag and silica blast. Maybe a bit of nitrozyme too. Temps are still running high 80's but I'm really not o concerned. They look good and I run c02 so they should be ok. I'll post some updated pics in a min. Brb water time.

9/12 are confirmed female. Only bad side is that the 3 that I think are males 2 of them are the Magus Exile. I still have 8 seeds left but that means I will have to start them next time to see how they turn out. I am however excited about the free seeds dark star. This strains look insane and I have 2 confirmed females going now!!! Exiting. Posting pics below. Sorry have to upload them.

I'm really loving that setup, grouch...the plants look so happy there.

You run the CO2 during veg too, or just for flowering?

Ran it for 2 weeks while vegging. Maybe less. Soon as the temp got hotter here I knew I would need to get it rolling. It helps so much. Can't wait till I can afford a climate controller. Then ill be Ballin.

Nice looking plants! My tangerine dream are about 3-4 weeks into flowering now and 4 of 6 are over 6ft tall. I only vegged for 3 weeks under 400W HPS.

They took off like a beanstock when I put them into flower. They have really long thin whispy sativa leaves. The buds run all the way up and down the branches too with 2 1000HPS in Magnum XXL hoods. The other two plants are shorter. One was topped and is very indica leaf pattern, the other is sativa leaf pattern but very thin and weak looking.

I wonder if they started selling the TD seeds before they were ready because all of yours look uniform. I got the first batch I guess....

Good luck!:eyesmoke:

So confirmed females are as follows.
1 heavy duty fruity.
2 darkstar
2 tangerine dream
1 chocolope
1 blue widow
1 exile.

Males ;(
1 exile
3 chocolope

Pretty sure that's set in stone. I'm letting the males go just another day or two in order to be certain.

Shame about those Chocolope males...but at least you have one lady from that strain. And eight females plants in total can produce a very nice harvest....with lots of variety in this case (especially with two distinct phenos of TD). Personally, I like to have a choice of smokes from each harvest, and have only done a couple of "mono-strain" grows in the past.

Yeah. Bumed about the chocolope. Wish I had another one to choose from. I did take all those clones so I do have a cutting from each plant. Let's hope they make it. I just trimmed up any Browning leaves on the clones last night. No root growth yet. It's only been 7 days but I was hoping for a little bit of growth. Maybe in the next 3 days. Picking up ac unit today or tomorrow. It's been hot here last few days in the 90's and that is definitely making my room hotter. I hope I have room for that ac unit. Not going with a window mount but instead going with a portable unit. Maybe ill build a shelf on a back wall in my room where I can put the ac unit. Keep it off the floor and help maintain air temps a little better. We will see. Anyways ill post updated pics later tonight When lights on.

Yeah, ya gotta be patient with those cuttings. Seven days is about the earliest I've ever seen roots popping out.

90 degrees already? :o It's only early May. Where do you live?

Of course no Ac Unit tonight. I got a call from a friend that wanted to meet up with me at Benihanas (How could i say no?). Well at least its update time. Plants are growing like 2" a day right now during stretch phase. I can not believe how much i have to move the hoods. Oh oh oh, i went to a friends earlier today and picked up a bunch of seeds. He had just started growing planted 10 lavender plants and never sexed them through the whole grow ( Say What?), yeah, I am serious. Well good news is that we have 10,000 seeds now. He gave me a a handful and i am going to start germinating these around week 5 of this grow. I am still banking on my clones to root but if they dont you have got to always have a back up plan. Enough ranting. Here are the pics.

Day 7 of flower.

As of right now I love the 600 watters. You might have me eat my words later though if this harvest doesnt do what im projecting it to do.

You should be stoked, Lavender is one of my favorite strains and is expensive as hell to buy. Like $120 for a pack of 10.
