Looks Fat Man.
Q1. What wattage are the HPS & MH in ur Flower Room?
Q2. What is with the little bits of metal on ur rockwool cubes? Is it to support Clones (which happen to be invisible) or are you hatching some new seedlings?

A1. 400w each. (400w MH + 2 x 400w HPS)
A2. They are just pieces of tie wire to identify whatever is growing in them. Its just a random assortment of vegetables that I'm going to play around with indoors until early spring. I'm also seeing if seeds germ quicker in rockwool or jiffy pellets. The rockwool seems to be in the lead but I like those little coco things.

Thats a bit odd to be honest, lol, i just write on mine before i soak em n i can tell exactly whats in em from that.
Yeah im pretty set on using Rockwool for all my germing/cloning needs. But the Jiffy pellets will always have a special place in my heart.

I can then use the markers in the garden when they go outside as the plastic gets stripped off and the cube buried. I guess I could just use the plastic to mark them but that would look messy (unlike the mounds of weeds in the garden right now)....

I like the new avatar too Ninja
 
Thanks Man. I just leave the Paper/Plastic on until i bury the cube @ which time i either clear tape it to the pot, or just slide it upwards and just leave it around the base of the stem.. Its pretty rare that a plant will outgrow it.
 
My DIY 140mm orchid net DWC system. We'll see how this goes......

I hit them with some of that "Halo" foliar feed. I turned the two HPS's off and raised the MH to about 1m to stop them from lensing. I can't say weather its good or bad. I can't tell if its made any difference at all. Its left water spots on my leaves, which I don't like one bit.

One week to go. I just flushed them and gave them an extra hot mix for the next three days until I give them their pre-harvest flush on Monday. I tried a little popcorn today, not bad at all.

It looks pretty good but its hard to tell. My own strain produces long fat colas while the AB seems to have much shorter ones. They are nice and solid without the use of PGR in flowering.
I'm not going to use the pheno of the shorter plants in the front any more. The larger AB has much larger buds and far more trichs even with a lot less light.
The test buds are fucking awesome with a weird grape/cheap superglue smell to it. In saying that I think SLH smells like mangoes, blue cheese smells like banana Quik™, White (dairy) Berry smells like raspberry Splice™ and my own strain smells of a cross between sherbet and a bad "shart".
 
The world is like a ride in an amusement park and when we choose to go on it we think it's real, because that's how powerful our minds are. And it goes up and down and round and round, it has thrills and chills and its very brightly colored and very loud, and it's fun - for a while.

Some people have been on the ride for a long time and after a while they begin to question: Is this real, or is it just a ride? But some people have remembered, and they come back to us and they say. "Hey, don't worry and don't be afraid ever, because this is just a ride" - and we kill those people...

"Shut him up! Ive got a lot invested in this ride... Look at my furrows of worry... Look at my big bank account... Look at my family... This has to be real"

But it's just a ride.

But we always kill those good guys who try to tell us that and we let the demons run amok. But it doesnt matter, because it's just a ride - and we can change it any time we want.

All we need is the choice.

No effort, no work, no job, no savings or money - just a choice - right now - between fear & love.

The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns and and close yourself off, the eyes of love instead, see all of us as one.

Here's what we can do to change the world to a better ride right now. Take all the money we spend on weapons and defence every year and instead spend it feeding, clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded and we can explore space...

together...

both inner and outer...

forever...

...in peace.

- Bill Hicks (1961 - 1994 R.I.P.)
