I think I already asked this, but do you have a journal PKHydro?

Not sure what a journal is. Like a thread I update on the regular? No I do not.

1 side of the Vertical cab. 2 x 600w. 1.2m squared. 4 plants. Very hard to get good shots of vertical set ups. Need a fish eye lense or something.

I've been at RIU a while... when I started there were only threads like this... at some point we got journals or something like that too, I don't really understand them. I like threads... I like it when people keep threads on their own grow and have all their info in one place. That's what I did for a few years and found it very rewarding, however I became lazy and no longer keep a thread. It's kinda sad.

If you for some reason feel like making a thread for your grow it helps to put a link to it in your signature so people can follow you over there.

Awesome! I have heard of H2O2 before. In college I used it in specific gravity experiments and such... There is a giant underground lab about 1/2 a mile under that has a huge tank over 50,000 gallons filled with H2O2. They utilize the H2O2 to preform amazing experiments due to its unique properties and they are so far underground the gravity/temps/humidity are all regulated to perfection.... Its weird and I really don't understand the whole thing.

Are the buckets sealed from light? Im just amazed that you grew about a 6' tall plant in a 3 gallon pot. Strong work man.

If you do make a thread, then please do post a link here. ;0)

There can be a thing as "Too much" light. At a point, indoor growing reaches its maximum potential....no matter what a grower does. Artificial lighting can barely scratch the surface of natural sunlight. With that being said, no matter how many lights or strength of the lights, you can NEVER recreate the sunlight. So my point is, eventually more lights = more money and less return. A medium must be maintained, usually a rule of thumb would be Grams per watt. So if your bud area is a 1k and you produce say 500grams then you're doing okay. thats about 0.5g/W. Some can reach above 1.0 but that is rare. The best I have done is 1.1 and I was amazed (10 plants/10gal each/2k top light/ACDE/DiamondOG/1808g). Normally around 0.62

Sorry my bad I meant 0.9

The assumption that ideal light is exactly like sunlight is incorrect. Having run a lot of light sources, I'd say that great lighting has a good balance of spectra at the highest efficiency possible. There really isn't good way around it, can't do either/or, it has to be both.

The new COB LED chips are really showing some impressive results.

Thanks. The bottom bucket is actually 2 buckets, there is a 3gal bucket sitting in a 5 gallon bucket. The 3 gal bucket is basically a homemade net pot, filled with lava rock. The roots form like 3" thick mats in the space between the buckets.

This picture shows what I was trying to explain

I've never journaled a grow but totally agree. And not to be a fanboy but @jigfresh your journals from maybe 2010 were highly useful and formative for me, I'm sure for others too. As I recall you totally overgrew your closet in grand fashion but I learned a lot about maximizing space, light, ventilation and more. Glad you found it rewarding too. :joint:

jigfresh · Dec 18, 2015

Thanks a lot @elkamino. I'm glad you got something from my adventure. That was the main reason for documenting it all so thoroughly, so that others could learn from my mistakes, and successes. It's a real shame the pictures have been deleted. I sure did go through some equipment in the early days.

Good to see your name again bud.

can you post the journal link?

jigfresh · Dec 18, 2015

Here you go, my four main journals. Hundreds and hundreds of pages (284 or something) of good times, good laughs, good friends, good info, and good buds. Well except for my failed soil experiments.

What's up with the pix being deleted? Yes its tragic! I've seen that on some other older RIU threads too. Know if that's the result of the crash RIU had early 2015?

jigfresh · Dec 18, 2015

Yeah, it was when everything changed over to this new format, they didn't take the pics over, or couldn't or whatever. Real shame. Kinda gutted me at the time. Still a bummer, but oh well, life does continue.

Got some Gorilla Glue #4 (4 dif phenos - seed), Red OG (some call it ROG or OGred - cuts), and GSC (multiple phenos - seeds)

Has anyone grown any of these "indoors"? No issues so far...things are good. GG is amazing and GSC is a close 2nd.

Here are the results about 2 weeks out from harvest... These are Vert 4800W Gorilla Glue #4
