Nice grow so far Joker420!

JP

lookin good man!

Just to show the rest of the process.... wanted to get these off my camera....

J

u should post the recipe lol

The Ususal suspects...





Photo num 4 is for FD n Mossy specifically... I know you guys will like her genetics... she's a lil shorty that knows how to rhyme, her booty's fat, she's all that, and she's always on time!

Also, FD.. I started using my H202 technique again last night. (I used to do this via overhead irrigation in my garden... but it got a bit expensive to distribute H202 to 19,400 Square Feet through direct irrigation injection.. although I did notice a vigor increase even outside...)

Anyway... 12 ml 35% Food Grade H202 to 1.75 Gal Water.... effectively copying your bubble pills... O2 injectio on baby!

(Pssst... mossy.... FD.... lean a lil closer to the screen.... (in a whisper) They told me thay like it when I spank them with naughty O2)

Now if they'll just get my replacement fan back here for the fogger i'll be all set!

I got a 250w mh lamp (£25), a 250w hps lamp (£20) & a son-t dual spectrum lamp (£15). out off all of them the £15 dual spectrum lamp is the best by far with all the autos i have grown indoors, and its loads cheaper than £45 for the mh and hps lamps. another benifit is been able to start new plants under the same light as your fully flowering girl.

aiyeeeeeeeeee....look at the leaves at the bottom....pest problem......

I can Feel the difference on the Roots since I have been using it...
But..
can appreciate the difficulties you would have with your system.

I'm So convinced with the water buffering and oxygenation that I would recommend it Above ferts.
So Simple..Marvelous results....

Canna-rap..I Love it.

BTW..the chocolate made me drool...
But....
Not as much as your girls did this morning...
they are Blossoming...mmm..mmm..

Hey dargo....that view in the grow cupboard looked lush...
how are they doing now...?

Good..Tested...info on the lamps.....

Everything looks to be doing well now, I can see the leafs are starting to return to normall on the cal mag deficancy girls, the Psirens are growing really well under the mh, 2 days under it is like 7-8 days under the cfl's!!

I think im going to scrap the cfl cab and get another 250w mh/hps as I got 2 x 125w CFLs (250w total) which dont do anything like as well as the mh/hps/ds for the same cost.

I really want to start some super bad bettys but im worried il get some monsters that I wont have space for, and for me the whole idea of the super bad betty was to get a colored monster. it was -11C in my greenhouse last night so I can rule out growing in there for the next few months!!

dunno how big your greenhouse is but you can get a procomm ventless propane heater for about $200 US that will do 28,000 btus... and the side benfit is CO@ released directly into your grow enviro... just a tip

Thanks mossy... thay have me drooling too!
Almost sounds like from what FD said yesterday that the O2 may increase growth rate enough to allow a little more headroom in the nutes dept.... so I'm hoping I can does them again soon... (on his chedule prob and maybe 1/2 his strngths to be safe)

I know it works... think I'll stick with O2 in the watering regiment and keep only co2 and water (and maybe a mild mild shot of flowering nutes as it comes on a lil more) in the fogger when its fixed.

Glad you liked my little canna-rap,
I try to keep it real,
cuz we all know the deal,
Autos are the shit,
there's no denying it,
so flowerin' rhymes I'll spit,
Rollitup dot org,
you know it is the shit,
Auto-flowering thread,
We stay on top of it!

Yup...an it wasn't a passing dinosaur...
it was a Ginger LFB.....

see how your Trouble spotting technique is improving....

lol...
yeah, must be my incredible observation capabilities.... I know insects don't have teeth the size of those leaves... lol

Ginger LFB... your dog or cat?
or Low Flying Bird? lol


reheating the choco right now... couldn't wait for the new molds to get here... so im pourin a few off into ice cube trays... gotta have my power-engineering buzz!


oh yeah mosser... you said 4 days to hermify a girl by LD (Light Deprivation[ man that sounds like kinky sex])
1) are you using total darkness for 4 days?
2) How fast do male flowers show?
3) Is this the best method to hermify for "selfing" breeding as previously discussed?

Thanx again
J

if i'm growing two auto ak47/easyriders in soil in a metal cabinet 72"x18"x32" with only a 180w LED and two side CFL can i i get away with only a passive intake?

Little Fat B*stard..me dog..
she had a bad belly....and her mom obviously told her to eat Grass....
but didn't explain Grass properly.

I heard the chomping..and spotted her tongue coming out sideways like a chameleon..and Snatch..
the bottom of 3 fingers disappeared...
Little Witch..

I'll do your questions when I get back...
I'm having a run around day....

FullD..1 of the bx1 males.
I think I could stuff that and smoke it....

Hooo...hooo...hooo...-11C....
I have had the girls Outdoor @ -2C...
and had them germ @-2C..

But -11C...with the lowest natural light of the year...
think you are better off waiting a Day or Two...ha ha...
(I like to have a new years day harvest and germ...just to start the season off right..superstisious..)

I got a Soil PH meter..around £7 off amazon....
and it has a light meter on.
didn't think I would use it..
but I tested the lighted cupboard...850..(lumens I assume...)
tested the patio light at 250..morning shaded
but when the sun comes round..it knocks the dial right off the end...2000..

Mother nature at her finest....

Ah good morning guys, and i see that the little heffer
still has a taste for the DC. See hard to kick that habbit

I say dry it out and give it a go
I dont see why it wouldn't work and talk about taste
I still cant get over the size of the stems on that plant
some of the fattest i have ever seen on an auto, hell for a plant that size!

but I tested the lighted cupboard...850..(lumens I assume...)

From a 4 or 6 hundred watt? Should be more than 850 my friend

Lamp Type Watts Lumens Total efficiency
High P. Sodium 400 45000 45k lumens
High P. Sodium 600 75000 75k lumens

Ill have to look up what those numbers reference

400 metal halide dual spectrum..I Think..

I'll double check it later when I put it back on..and double check the light meter..it's new..I need to play.
the girls are on the patio catching some rays on their light break...




oops..Morning m8....

#1 No mine were simply on very low light..spare bathroom....
#2 you see the trics go wiggly after about 4 days..then you are looking for balls...
#3 I would Prefer this method to codial silver...
but I'm just an Old Fashioned gardener..
I like things done Natural if possible..

I'm sure I have a bit info on it..I'll see if I can find it for you.
