For any of you that can stomach the read, My journal has gooten lots of good reviews, link in my sig. Loved the rifles twils. Havent had a need to paint mine yet, but enjoy the way they look when they are done. Looking into changing the stock on my .308 and was gonna do it then. So when we going smoking and shootin, probly a good idea if they're not at the same time.

Thanks Integra! I really like how they turned out, although they looked a LOT better before all the use and dragging through the brush lol.

Smoking and shooting is great! It seems to be the only way to calm my nerves enough to make the 600-1k shots:eyesmoke: Just don't smoke as much as I normally do when I'm at home!

Burn on! :peace:bongsmilie

Day 10 since switch to 12/12~ They are starting to fill out rather nice!

Things are looking great here!!

Canopy level is right at 4' now.. I've got 24" more to move my lights up then I'm really having some problems!

Going to have to get creative to keep them under control!

No particular order for pictures today.. Just flowers and all of the girls..

Burn on!:peace:bongsmilie

Here's a picture of the Canopy height. Right at 44"inches to 48"inches with the lights both being at 50"inches
Yowsers, I hope that those lights are adjustable, kiddo - they're gonna hit the light in about two days, methinks :blsmoke:

Anyhow, looking great as always, wouldn't have expected any less from you - going to fugg around with some wiring, if you never hear from me again, you can probably guess what happened.

Keep growing, meng :mrgreen:

Haha good times! Be safe there Bob! Remember to make sure that main breaker is thrown before doing anything!

I've been able to keep the tops of the plants at a constant 2" from the bulbs, So I'm hoping that I can make it work, just keep raising very sloooowly!

Yeah I've got 24" to raise the lights up more then I'm maxed out at the 7' ceiling height (whoops not so tall next time)!!

I was thinking I might have to right up some sort of Screen to help train them under and keep them in line.. Still up in the air at this point haha!

Burn on! :peace: bongsmilie

Hiya Twils, I swear, I subscribed to this thread, but then I don't see it in my list... but I'll try again. You have some of the best looking plants on RIU

I'm going to look at the pics again now :eyesmoke: Reps+ coming your way too, as long as the control panel lets me...

P.S. I've found the easiest way to keep the height under control, once they're all packed in like that is super-cropping the tallest...

In case you've never done it: just crimp the stem with a piers - or with your fingers if you have a lot of finger strength - then the stem will bend over - where it was crushed - without snapping. Within a week the tops will be praying to the lights again, and I find that the abuse doesn't affect the bud growth, negatively.:joint:

GC Thanks for stopping by bro!, and MANY thanks for the kind words!!

Slowly but surely I've been super cropping and lst'ing to try and keep the canopy level.

It seems I can even it out for a few days, wait for the new growth and then pick and choose to try and fill the open gaps again. I'm sure it would be much easier
if they were all the same strain lol!

Start on this GC! Party is getting started! :joint::joint::joint::joint::joint:

Pictures to be updated in a few hours!

Its been quite interesting the couple last days, having a massive case of anxiety attacks every 1-2 hours coupled with some severe insomnia..

I rebuilt my veg room, Put together a shelf and wired it all up with fans/reflectors/cfl's/etc... I'll explain later, have to run for now!

Thanks Bro! Been smoking like a mofo and it's helping quite a bit, but there's only so much I can do :-?

Going to be posting pics here for the next few minutes! Just have to finish organizing them.

The Girls are looking great!

Starting to flower real nicely, Been keeping them about 2-4" away from the lights and they are loving it!

I'm also starting to think that having the mix of HPS and MH lights is really making things turn out nicely too.. I'd like to hook another HPS up and go with a ratio of 2:1 HPS/MH.. That will have to come at a later date though!

Nute mix for this week: (all per 1 gallon)
1 1/2tsp FF Tiger Bloom, 1tsp Botanicare Cal-Mag, 1/2tsp FF Open Sesame, 1TBSP Molasses (once a week), pH 6.5-6.8

No specific order really, Lots of group shots and baby flowers!

So I went out to Wally World and found a self that fit my room rather nicely and decided... Well... I'm out of room on the floor, my closet is looking like a jungle... I need to expand! Upwards!

It was originally designed to be a 4 tier shelf with a standing height of 48 inches... Gave about 13.5 inches or so per section..

That's not going to work if I want to keep things organized and in a "progressive" order...

Top shelf has kind of a built in heat mat from the 2 ( 6500k, 100w) cfl's attached to the bottom side. This is for the clone tray/humidity dome. It keeps the bottom warm and the cool air moving throughout the room keeps them from getting too hot!

Middle Shelf (holds 26 3" starter pots) has 2 (6500k, 100w) cfl's attached to the top, this is where rooted clones will be going into starter pots. Now I've made this light fixture to be FIXED in one position so the plants will stretch a little bit before going to 1 gallon grow bags.

Bottom Shelf (holds 8 (1) gallon grow bags) has currently 2 (soon to be 4) (6500k , 100w) cfl's hanging on a moveable light fixture, after stretching the clones a little bit, they will be topped and have lights dropped way down to veg out and bush out a little bit, till they are ready to be replaced by the next batch.

As they out grow the bottom shelf, they will be transplanted into 3 Gallon smart pots and thrown into the flowering room.

The fans are on a switchable 12v DC Power adaptor, so If they are blowing too hard, I can lower the voltage out put to slow the fans air movement!

Pictures of the fans, lights, the mounting bracket i made to hold the lights horrizontal, etc etc! Enjoy! I sure did making this!

Got the clone station set up in the veg room and everything seems to be working great!

The mama's are looking very NICE! I'll be able to get quite a few good cuts off them when I'm needing more!

Not much to report on them.. Vegging along just doing their thing!
