Its me again lol...grow looks great everytime i stop in. I have to agree with evilmobo except id like to see the APxTM before the KkGd x TM.

Oan...I am about to throw 2 maybe 3 plants to flower in a 5gal power grower i have 4 buckets but only 4 functional so maybe 3 per pot (9 space monkey seedlings) . now to my question... Do you ever have any issues with roots tangling in your smaller sized buckets? Thanks and keep it green :peace:
Thanks for stopping in. As I currently am not using much veg time if any, I have not had any experience with problems from roots tangling. That being said, there's always one plant that seems to end up much bigger than the others. Whether that is attributed to the fact that I run mostly all different strains or ones roots are taking up most of the space. All stay healthy within their own space and size though so I wouldn't say it causes any problems. And the aero is a big enough Rez that there are no problems there in my system. Hope that helps. :)

Dope. Definitely helps. I've done my research and very few ppl suggest doing what you are doing. But you do it oh so well so i know it can be done. You've developed and mastered a system that works for your space and im amazed at what can be done. It makes me all the more hopeful that i can achieve such success. I appreciate the speedy reply as well.

It definitely works for personals and keeping variety, while also having enough space to run testers. The only thing that is kind of a burn is when you run 10+ strains in 3 reservoirs, I try to keep a level where most are happy. But in doing this, the lighter feeders get minor tip burn from hot nutrient solution and the heavier feeders tend to fade a little early. Not a huge deal though, nugs still turn out fire :).

Im doing a pheno hunt with the few seeds i have then i will start to add some variety. Be nice to have a different medication everyday. You mentioned keeping the ppm levels to where all are happy, does that mean with each run you find the ppm level and it remains the same throughout flower?

I generally keep it low, like 500-600 ppm. Most plants will stay happy in this range, but some want more and occasionally you have a few that want less.

White hulk. Totally forgot what it was lol.
hanging right now unmanicured I'll post better pics when I trim it.
smells like some decent chronic/og mutt. Really nice bud structure and smell. Really crap yielder. The Noah's ark is better and that one yielded shit. Smells delicious though.

I almost feel you'd be better drying them right side up if doing a dry trim so the leaves don't fold down and stick.

What's the deal with cookie wreck? Cookies X trainwreck sounds right up my alley. Trainwreck is one of my all time favorites and I feel like it doesn't get enough love anymore

Probably cause trainwreck is extremely tall and stretchy and doesn't work very well indoors.

It's also a strain with a very weak support system due to it being so stretchy, and the the buds often just fall over to the sides, looking like a trainwreck, which is where it's name comes from.

I don't mind and part of the benefit of dry trimming is that those leaves curl over the buds and protect them from light while they dry. They also tend to keep drying more even lol. Also itd be wowed to rug up something to hang them the other way lol.

I always thought the name was from when you smoke it it hits you like a train lol. I like both versions

Slight derail, I just grabbed some TW yesterday and I REALLY like it for medicating during the day but man it can keep you up at night lol......
A bit too many sat traits in it for me to do straight tw. Not my favorite taste either. Great stone though.
