Ethos Collective Blackfire and Exotic Genetix Future SOG and mother flower

Sorry to hear about the hermies, other than that it looks like you know what you're doing. Can't wait to see what else you roll out!

apart from the salt buildup burn these are doing good considering all the new experimental shit im putting them through lol. they will get flushed heavily tonight with 1/4 strength nutes. next round will be recirculating drip so that way i can flush all the way through and avoid the buildup. still waiting on some parts but then i should be good to go. my phone hates taking night shots. sorry for the blurry pics. these have about 3 more weeks left and the SOGlings about 4 i think.

i think next round will be KISS with the nutrients. just A, B and calmag.

i wish i was a bit more disciplined and i would have a much more productive garden. right now im trying to design some sheet metal "hoods" for my LED arrays to trap and remove the hot air. i might just say fuck it and mini split/CO2 the room instead. soon i will be switching back to low plant count and bigger plants as soon as the pheno hunt is over with. i cant wait! too many to care for lol

I hope you find your "NEO" LOL

flushing a bit more and dropping the nutrient strength again. gonna get it around 1.0 ec and see how that goes lol. the new guys are looking great and stretching into place nicely. i will have to build a scrog frame for them shortly. just gonna do furring strips with netting stretched across and stapled to it then hang it from the ceiling. still waiting on all of my drippers so i can get automated. amazon prime screwed me over on the last few things i ordered. taken over a week to get a prime 2 day shipping item. pissing me off.

the hermies are looking so dank i thought about revegging one lol. its a damn shame. they would have been some proper top shelf.

starting to flush. gonna pull them in about a week. i hope the new ones didnt get seeded. i will be pissed! either way it will be a good indicator of what they are capable of and whether or not they are worth keeping a mother of. the first three pics are of the hermie future in all its beauty, the single plant is a nice harambe and then the whole canopy.

COBs are kicking some ass in there

night time shot

pulling down to hang tomorrow! grabbed my 2x4 tent poles out of storage and forgot the tent itself lol. i shall try again in the morning. looks like everything is coming down and then i will space out my new ones over the whole table. they need some breathing room!

oh shit! look who's about to be running air cooled LED's. gonna have the coolest room in the state!

now that i know the layout works inside the chamber all i need to do is order 1/8" aluminum sheet to replace the glass and mount the heatsinks to it. gonna be easy as shit. then i will just change the plug to take the right connector and all set!

as you can see there will be 9 LEDs in each hood. i will mount the drivers inside as well so that their heat is removed also. speaking of drivers each set of 3 LED will have its own dedicated hlg185 set to 222W exactly that way my hoods burn an ominous 666 watts and bring out the evil. one 6" fan will be able to handle all the hoods since they dont get all that hot. super pumped about being able to use old parts and save some time and money all while recycling some gear from storage thats just been sitting there costing me money.

chop time! and i spread out the others to fill the whole table. tomorrow they get scrogged they are looking great but are starting to show signs of needing more food. from here on out they go back to full strength +

Looking good not sure how I missed this log. Can't wait to the the new wave of flowering plants. Specs on the LED build?

i think everyone missed it lol. i dont think the grow logs get much traffic. the clones of all the Ethos gear that are on the table now are getting big. there are already a few standouts. they should get transplanted tonight after i build my SCROG frames. gonna be a long day again and its my last day off

the LEDs are CITI 1212s in 3000k, one per sq ft at 37.5 W. they are being driven by hlg185 48a's. i also have two rigs for a 4x8 that are cxm22's driven at 50W. i didnt notice a difference in size or weight between the 800w array and the 600w array so i think i will drop down the power to 600w until i run CO2 in the room.

Sweet thanks for the info I have pulled up a chair

i built my scrog frames and my pre-press mold for pressing nug. gonna try it out tonight
i could have gone bigger on the mold but i wanted to keep it quick and simple for today. lots going on. tonight i need to get those seeds popped and mix up some stronger food. they seem to be extra hungry under the LEDs. just ordered some rosin bags and they should be here in a couple days. i will start pressing some buds without the bags and then i will re-press the extracted material in a bag to filter out the contaminants when they come in.

first press of 4.8g of some dank nug i found laying around. seems to have worked. now just have to get it off the damn paper

Fold the paper in half and it will all start sticking together, you keep doing this until you have collected all into one piece. Just a tip.
