Hands down to growers house! They are some stand up guys. After all the bullshit the cunts at kind stood by policy and didn't do shit. Growers house is going to take them back all fucked up and only hit me with 20% restocking. So I contacted ups to get the small refund and shipping rate refund. They are going to send out someone to kind where the lights are and then send me some money. The absolute bullshit in it all is they say it takes 6-8 weeks to set up an inspection. That means I'll lose the 2200 refund from growers house. I'd love to bitch slap the wife of the ceo of ups.

Something about that doesn't sound right Smo.
Same shit happened to me , I called UPS and they picked up the damaged light the next day and took it to local hub for inspection . ( next day bro)
Something or someone was wrong in telling you it took that long . Think you need to call back and be more persistent on getting someone with a fucking brain on the phone

Question guys .
One of my plants in a dwc setup was a underperformer and dud from the start of life and never grew much at all but I kept it around just to see ..buds are pretty small on it compared to all my other plants and its growth at a stand still for weeks . However it did seem to show a lot of signs of maturity on those pop corn buds with the red hairs and tons of sugar looking cloudy to milky trichomes .
I was checking roots tonight and cleaning the Res and the roots were totally reduced to a slime ball and had an unpleasant odor .
Last week I started flushing it because I kind of figured it was running out of time .
Tonight I went ahead and pulled it and hung up to dry .
Considering that it had root rot is that going to be Total shit or what ? What's there looks ok for little buds but was wondering if anyone has any experience in this situation

I got my last pieces, for a test grow. I changed out 2 sk400+'s

3xT3-2100
1x hydrofarm CMH
1x T2-2100

heres a buch of text about stuff you're not gonna read anyway: cause pictures!!!






this should be noted: RAZ does not fuck around when packing his products. he uses super high impact foam boards, and does a proper job. I'm even keeping the boards, I dunno why but I'm sure I can find something to use them for.

and its pulling 1300 and change from the wall, light wise.

WTF.
I've been doing everything I can to not fuck up all the work I've put in and a couple of my plants seemed ready so I cut them down and they are drying . They smelled like weed before I cut them , it's been 2 days in 72 degree room with proper air circulation but not blowing on the pot it's mostly dark minus a dim glow from next room (58 percent humidity )
The buds I cut are resinous as shit but they are starting to smell like mother fucking hay.
I still have quite a bit left that will need to be harvested next week or two . Can someone enlighten me as to what I'm doing to ruin this shit so maybe I don't ruin what's left when I chop it .
Shit is frustrating as hell to see some beautiful ass nugget smell like fucking hay .

Calmenzee downin. It is part of the process my friend. This is where the curing process becomes so important. Once the stems bend over and almost crack on the bigger thicker ones, and the smaller ones "snap", it's Into glass jars set in the DARK. Fill half gallon ones about 1/2-3/4 full. Then make sure for the first week, you open those jars twice a day and take the buds out for 15 minutes. The next week, do it every other day. The third week, two times, then the last week don't do it until the last day of the week. After that point, you're good to go and won't need or want to open them again. They will be dank and delicious again. When you trimmed them, chlorophyll sprays all over and makes them stink. And once that's dried off and the inner chlorophyll has broken down and left, the bouquet comes back.
Go to pet Co and buy a humidity gauge for reptile tanks, one for each half gallon jar. Once it's @72% you need to open/burp the jars regardless of when you last did. Anything past 72% risks rot.
You'll be alright.
Let us know how great they smell in a month. ;)

Thanks for the response .. I've never been around freshly cut pot but in the past I've encountered shitty pot that smelled like hay and didn't give any kind of buzz .. When I first cut them they smelled spicy and lemony and then it was like hay and I was thinking I screwed up royally somehow . Hope you're right lol

It happens to everyone who wet trims. The only way to avoid really is to cut the plant at the base stem and hang the entire thing upside down, dry, and then dry trim. Which just sucks so much ass.

How long am I supposed to dry cut and trimmed wet ? People say different things so not sure .
I told you. Once the bigger stems bend over and crack at the seams and the smaller ones "snap ". Then In to jars kept in the dark. Go buy those humidity gauges from petco. They'll make you feel a lot more comfortable knowing what the RH is inside your jars.

I find myself trimming in early cure. It is less messy and having bud leaves on slows drying initially. The slower dry seems to kill harshness and make the bud more durable later. The trichs seem to stay in place better.

The other thing I encounter when I trim wet is terpines burning my eyes and a very aromatic house!

been running for a few days now:

the T2-2100 is very cool
the T3-2100 is very hot, I cant touch the heat sink for long. it needs a second fan for sure to make them as cool as the T2.

I'm picked up a lot of heat, but I did switch from 2 units too 5.

...and when I say hot I mean like:top-87/canopy-82/pot level-79
