I'm so glad you get my humorLOL...
Thanks SOG... you're funny...lol...
LOL...
Thanks SOG... you're funny...lol...
I have been running hydro since August 08... 2008 not 1908...lol....
I started with an Aerogarden...
Then I built a tent and did DWC under the first 600HPS...
I didn't switch to Ebb Flow until February...
Started with just a home made "tote" unit to get the hang of it...
And have come here from there...
I am a newb... I just pay attention...
People like you and Al. , Sink, NG...
All you guys teach me by posting your experiences...
I love saying that I stand on the shoulders of Giants...
And that is a huge benefit accessible to any newb with a bit of dedication...
As for first timer... no it's not my first time...
I used to throw hundreds of seeds in several fields all over the countryside in an undisclosed location in South America..
I never watered them... never fed them... never did anything..
Hell I didn't even see if they sprouted until harvest time... if the cows or the monkeys didn't get to them first...
I had no idea what I was doing..lol..
We smoked leaves buds seeds stems the whole shabang.. just wrapped the long buds in whatever paper and puff away...lol...
But as far as growing DANK, this is a very new experience to me..lol...
It makes me feel good that everyone says I'm not a newb.. but I know better...lol...
I better get to putting some words up eh?!
Thanks dude..Where did you get that mesh screen Gypsy?
Oh yeah, good job!
Great, great thread, Gypsy. Love your pic's! Kudos to you, bra.
looking good as always
I fugure I dry out at about 1/4 of the dry waeight.. and yes the stem is thick and heavy...34.3 = 12.3 gramms with snipping a bit of that stem off
32.6 = 11.2 gramms with snipping a bit of that stem
That's nice DWR, That's real good!looks good m8, i harvested an avarage of 18.05555 on 36 plants under 600w adjust a wing reflector
Don't you just love the taste of a freshie sometimes...lol...thats my guess, i harvested 1 plant yesterday night... put it on my 600w ballast and woke up this morning with some good smoke.... now i got 3 diffrent days harvested total of 30 gramms + or so... 1 plant harvested wet without stems.. 8 gramms.. dryd weight this morning 3 gramms + a bit more...
It is ONE way... it certainly is the best way for me...growing the way you are totally is the best way i was to stuborn at the beginning to accept it...
LG, I didn't say it anywhere, I suck...lol...gypsy have you stated how many watts your using? if so wat page? i think i could see 4 lights but im not sure if im missing one or not. looks like 3 hps and 1 mh.

a tad more m8 im sure
but its nice to have a lower guess than a higher and lower income
----------
That's nice DWR, That's real good!
Do you have any more room, I keep 48 lollies under the 600s...
This was my second worst run... the ones I chopped last week were the worse...
But I know why... they were just too small...
Severe case of "something" is better than nothing, I had no other clones...
My best run so far was 22g average on 48 lollipops...
I'm proud of that one...
----------
WOW 600w ?
-
i had 36 clones.....
----------
Don't you just love the taste of a freshie sometimes...lol...

ohh amazing how fruity it smellt, i guess quick drying can result in great tasting bud... very nice, as we speak smoking todays overnight dryd weed stoney.... and its bagseed heh.. best shit ever m8
* cough cough *
----------
It is ONE way... it certainly is the best way for me...
Not for everyone... some people like bushes... others are afraid of the high plant count...
I'm cool with chopping 48 lollies every 2 weeks...lol... or 24 every week...
I was figuring out, I could harvest every other day and have 2 loliipops for each of the hollidays...lol...
But I'll stick to a weekly/bi weekly schedule...lol..
----------
that must be awesome, i have 2 harvest per 2 months.. so evry month i can harvest, i think i might step my game up...
----------
Al, uses 1k over 2 trays...is there any specefic reasons you go with 600s?
LOL, a happy medium keeps the bad ghosts away...Al, uses 1k over 2 trays...
I thought I might get a little bit better coverage with 600 over each tray...
1k over a 4x4 tray seems just overkill, so I went with the happy medium...lol..
Cheers....
You know, I attribute my success as a newb to the fact that I choose a method, and stuck with it...LOL, a happy medium keeps the bad ghosts away...
Right on Gypsy, I can't wait til I get my house and the money together to really get my OP started.You know, I attribute my success as a newb to the fact that I choose a method, and stuck with it...
I am replicating an OP style that has been proven and documented as very successful...
None of it is my idea... and I have no problem with that... lol...
Just like I don't have to be the designer of a car to enjoy driving it..lol...
I wish I could pay Al some royalties..lol... the man showed me the light... well, one of th lights anyway...lol...
There are many ways to grow, and they ALL CAN BE VERY SUCCESSFUL, but they all require sticking to a proven plan...
Sorry if I am rambling, I just did a "Solar Rip" on a bowlful of Kief...
But I really do believe that the time for experiments and "off recipe" moves, is after a newb isn't a newb anyomre...lol...
I believe that after I get this op dialed in to the best of my abilities (within the recipe), then it's time to experiment...
After I have consistent results and a SOLID BASE FOR COMPARISON...
OK.. enough stoned ass Gypsy talk...lol...
Hope everyone has a WONDERFUL WEEKEND and get out to do some solar rips.. they rock!!!!
Cheers...
