Bubblelicious, New York Power Diesel, and Super Skunk in DWC

looks fucken awesome

Smokinggrubber, thanks for that - appreciate the link, but I'm not gonna do all that (pretty lazy) - worst case, I'll just calibrate once a week, and it won't be off by more then .2 between calibrations, which I can live with.

Was just curious if soaking it in bleach or something like that would get rid of the nastiness.

Jake, happy to have you aboard - haven't had my camera for a while, but pics will be coming this weekend.

Still haven't changed over the veg tent, although I did grab the plywood from Home Depot yesterday.

Also, was doing some cleaning in the office, and realized I probably should've given the 1000MH bulb (found that as well as some other good stuff) I had a shot whilst vegging for the past month; oh well

It says you just have to soak it in Hydrocloric acid (once a month). It's available for concrete workers so it shouldn't be too hard to purchase.

Lol, not going that far, but that is a nice segue into what I just did - finally got around to opening the H2O2 and put 20mL in my reservoir; somehow, must've spilled a drip or two on my hand. Had read that it "burned" skin, but I wasn't a believer and figured it wasn't a big deal - I was wrong. Felt a burning on my skin, and it's not "burned", per se, but bleached bright white. Not too worried about it, but kinda weird.

Anyhow, just came from the tent, and even though there's some yellowing on the weaker plants from the iron issue, other then that they're looking fairly immaculate, if I do say so myself. Growing an inch or two a day, killing me that I can't take some pics to show you guys.

Actually gonna try and get the veg tent done tomorrow, so that should be interesting.

Also going to have my dehumidifier constantly drain into a bucket, so that it won't continue to shut off from it being full - the water from that comes out at ~6PPM, so I'm going to use that as my main water source and only use my R/O filter when there's not enough of that water.

Pics would be appreciated. I'm wondering HOW yellow they got. Mine are looking a bit "light green" to me, but our definitions may be different (you are from 3tz away ).

Sorry I don't have pics, but it's the same as this link (post 33, pic #2)

There's also a discussion about it at the bottom of the thread between Statik and me.

subscribed and trying to catch up.

Glad to have you, cazador.

Just got back from Home Depot and the dro store, trying to get some building done today - also gave it some more thought, and I'm going to get a generator, but a propane one (thanks to that link that you provided, caz - no need to kill myself when it seems like propane lasts plenty long enough and is not shady at all to get filled up). Need to do some more research on the make and model (CD-3 or CD-6) that I need and ensure that a generator will work okay with a tent, but that's what I'm 90% sure I'm going to do.

Going to keep my CO2 tanks and regulator in case I need to run them in the summer because the temps are too hard to keep in check running a generator.

Also going to order this ozone generator:

Even though I have a filter in the tent, since there's not constant negative pressure, some smells can leak out (not too bad, but I'll catch a whiff every now and then in the driveway), so I figure an ozone generator should get rid of any residual smells that escape from the tent (also going to fully seal up the garage door cracks, so that should help as well).

Um, need to see how the building goes, but I think that I'm gonna stay with the bubble cloner (as opposed to E&F), and build a three bucket system (or three individual buckets, not quite sure yet). The only plants that didn't have problems in the buckets were the clones, and it's a pretty foolproof method, so I'm going with that.

So that will be two separate 2x4 trays for mamas and vegging plants, and three buckets for clones in the veg tent, in case anyone's keeping score at home.

I am also looking at the cd-6 but now watching this thread. I am now waiting a little and looking into the tank method. I don't have any worries about filling just not sure about cost and how often I'd need to refill. I like your thinking about having both. I have the CHHC-1. I have been playing with my LP camping heater to see how fast the CO2 PPMs rise. It gets the room up to over 1500 in about ten mins. I really wasn't timing. It stays high for quite some time. (1-2 hours latter its around 900). I do feel light-headed when I'm in there now that the PPMS are high. Are there other gasses such as CO given off? Is it the lack of oxygen? Or the build up of CO2 that messes with your head? Oh, I don't stay in there long anymore while the PPMs are high. But it got me thinking about the difference between the two (tank vs gen). Tank enriches with co2. A gen eats oxygen and adds things like CO2, water vapor, heat...not sure what else. Also the prices for the gens seem high. solenoid valve, igniter, burner and thermocouple whats so hard about that. Oh add some metal work to hold it all. anyone know of any home made LP CO2 gens? Why $500+. Am I missing something? Well I think I'll do both too. But like I said I am watching and listening for a few days/weeks.

I had a buddy who used to do the same thing with his dehumidifier Bob. He would let the bucket fill and then just dump it into his res. he of course would have to do some adjusting afterward...but no BIG deal.

Can't wait to see some pics of what you got going on in there now.

I hope to get my caretaker to take some pics tonight so I can upload them.

Anyway, thought I should "officially" sub to this thread.

Happy growing buddy.

~Statik~

Yeah, that's what I do anyways - I always top off my reservoir with pure water before adding nutes or pH'ing it.

Anywho, forgot to buy two legs at Home Depot, so need to run back there tomorrow - hoping to have the tent setup by then, but in all likelihood will probably spill into early next week.

Will have my camera back tomorrow, though, so I'll do a pic update at some point (most likely later in the afternoon).

EDIT: Thanks for stopping by Statik, happy to have you aboard.

So, going to go with all Super Skunk for my next harvest, and then will have the indica mama, Super Skunk, Bubblelicious, and NYPD mothers vegging.

Looking to add new strains one at a time so I can carefully choose the best mother from each five beans, so I'd like to know what strain you boys and girls think I should start with first.

There's Ice, Master Kush, and AK-48, all from Nirvana.

Would love input from you guys.

That's a tough choice. I haven't smoke or grown any of them. I vote for Master Kush on name appeal. That's just me Ice sounds addictive and AK sounds fellonious.

I and a few buddies have always wanted to check out Ice. So out of pure curiosity, my vote goes to Ice.

Yeah, I'm leaning towards Ice out of the three, but will wait for the votes to be tallied.

So far, 2 for Ice, 1 for Master Kush, and 0 for AK-48.

Hey I better get on this

Ice- Have seen some growing and smoked it. It was Nirvana. The final product was absolutely beautiful.....
AK-48- You have seen Abjnm's AK 48 grow I believe. My only knowledge of it is in there and it looks like one hell of a strain. The yield looks fairly impressive.

I say go with them both.............. AK-48 for the purpose of a formal vote!

Ice is a very tall plant dude, looks like ill get a good yield from it so ICE!

I vote Ice. I've already watched an AK-48 grow! LOL!

So far it looks like the community is leaning towards Ice Bob. Im not going to complain.

Ice ice ice ice ice.
