Hey there peoples this setup is a bit different than an average soil vertical setup so i thought one or two of you guys will find it interesting.
I have two 400w hps lights and one 600w hps
The room is a bit shitty... its my en-suite toilet!! its about 13 sq ft including the shower.
Im starting to flower now after vegging them for 6 weeks under 24hours of light and they are doin real good... the biggest is about 35 inches tall :bigjoint:
5 Northern Lights
3 Skunk#1
3 Barneys Farm LSD
They are all feminised!!

The smell was getting bad/good so i invested in a carbon filter and made my own inline fan out of a small extractor fan its not great gonna improve it....more on that next time.

I thought i might as well put up all of the decent pics of how ive been getting on with the grow up till now.
The first pic was taken on 3 of dec and the last ones were taken on the 7th of jan.
What do ya think am i doin good for a second time rounder???:bigjoint:
Ps.my first crop was Kushage i had 10 plants under 600w hps and it was deadly.... that was 3 years ago though:-(

Now that im flowering these girls i have come up with a plan.
I have very little space in the grow room for 11 plants so i am using my grow tent and my closet as darkrooms.
I switch the plants i have from the flowering room into the darkroom every 12 hours and vice versa.
Its causing alot of work but this way i only have 5or 6 plants taking up space at any one time in the grow room.
I measured some of the girls as i moved them this morning and my favourite one is now 40 inches tall on the second day of flowering woohoo.
I cant wait to smoke this stuff! the quality of weed in Ireland is shit and the hash is even worse.The scumbag drug barons put all types of shit into it to get more money out of the batch and its really unhealthy.
The situation in Ireland is.......3.5 grams of the worst weed is fifty euro and the funny thing is if i sold some of my batch people would still want at least 3.0 grams.
This is a country where you dont even have to serve the good wine first its not about quality its about quantity man.

Thats like my opinion man :P

Yo man, i had a really long break before and im about to have another but its like riding a bike, you never forget!

Im no pro but i just have some practical advice from things that havent worked well for me in the past and just stating the obvious at some points.

Moving plants and pots around is a pain in the ass because there pretty heavy especially after waterings, they're fragile, they smell and theres eleven of them. None of that is gonna affect your yeild tho and its saves on gym fees aswell as equipment.

The only major problem is with the photoperiod, if you forget to move them one night they could go herm on you.
I would suggest timers and using whatever your dark room is as a seperate grow room. you have enough lights.

Im gonna rep this tho because its a genius way to do it if u only got one lamp and we both joined rollitup in 2010!

how much air does your fan move before you modded it?

Dunno if i managed to rep you coz i only just joined a few hours ago but theres probably some FAQ or some shit that can get me up to date...

I totally no what you mean man its been pushed too far now spraying the shit with glass to bump up the weight, i tell you people in California are in heaven compared to what we are going through its ridiculous, we need medical marijuana air dropped in guys, this shits killing us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ps, loving the rubber tubs, got a couple of those bad boys in yellow that are just collecting snow atm...I thought that you could get a beast in one and those handles are ideal with your setup. Frickin nice one man maximum rep definitely inspired cant wait to get onto my next project. Good luck bro i hope those buds are as fat as those bushes then you can run them barons outta towwn!!!

Thanks for all that dude its great to hear some feedback!!I dont want to run those barons out of town i just want them to change the product...with a bit of help of course :bigjoint:........and then maybe run them outta town lol.
I drew a really crappy diagram of my filter setup for ya...its intriguing at least:-P

The extractor fans are basic bathroom models they cost 13 euro and move about 25 litres of air per second.
The filter was expensive= 85 euro(shoulda made one)
The principle is by having the fans set up in a Y shape leads me to coclude that i can pull 50 liters of air through the filter.
The original setup just did 25 a sec.

Anyway i have 25 litres going back into the room to be scrubbed again by the filter and 25 litres being extracted from the room completley.

According to my stoned calculations this would mean that half of the air going into the filter will have already been scrubbed before going through again and out completley.

I think after a few hours after initial startup the room should stay completely odour free and full of fresh air:bigjoint:

Freezing fresh air at the moment lol

A few of the girls have a some nutrient problems....
I think its mixture of a few things and id appreciate some input.
Im tryin to get the ph to 6.5 its a bit over 7 at the moment i think that the ph being a bit high has locked out the magnesium also my water has a good bit of calcium which also locks out magnesium.....i hear??
im hoping that the transplanting i did 5 days ago will help balance it out and fix most problems.
The other thing is that im also hoping that because i started to flower them they will switch their dietary requirements a good bit.
Im also giving them flowering nutrients and im just after doing the ph down.
So time will tell i suppose .....


Anyway have a look at the pics any ideas???
Any ideas about the ideas i had? Am i big time wrong.....(constructive)criticism is most welcome:bigjoint:

Try using vinegar, i dunno if it locks anything out but its slightly acidic so it will drop the ph by .3 hopefully without upsetting the EC

Thanks man i read up on the vinegar i also heard about using lemon juice but i think they destabilise after a few days so the ph reverts.
Im using ph down that i got in a grow shop and its leveling out at 6.0
I was tryin to get it to 6.5 but hopefully the nutrients that were locked will come back with a bang before it levels itself off.....then hopefully with the flowering nutrients it will all be cool.:bigjoint:

This is todays photo of the G room i think its goin good.
The temperature is 26.5c which is good i think.

I forgot to say about the 12th plant i have.....Rufus!
She is a maple leaf indica but she was retarded as a child and couldnt fullfill her potential...potential.not expecting much apart from a bit of somethin to shmoke when im waitin.Should still be alot better than the average crap that im smokin now.

Thanks for all the support lads :bigjoint:
Im doin this journal until its smoked so dont worry i wont just abandon it when it gets interesting:-P


Anyway here is the latest pics...
After just 6 days of flowering they are all showing signs of sex..100% female.
Im happy out anyway:bigjoint: but i still have to do a bit more to really get the highest yield out of it.

The last photo with Rufus in it (late flowering) is group 1 it has 5 plants and rufus = 6 plants

These photos are of group 2
I zoomed in to show the thick stalk of one of the girls called....(The Boss) she is over 40 inches and looking great.
For the craic i want ya to give estimates of how much The Boss will yield when its done........ whoever wins gets +rep
and will seize the eternal glory of knowing that you above anybody are the greatest human being in the world.
Im goin with 3 oz:bigjoint:
