Well, here it is, my perpetual conundrum. I laid claim to a guest bedroom it's a 11x10 and I had to leave the bed and use it for some storage. I have (2) 12" intakes that supply fresh air 24/7 365. I've ghetto fabbed, with duct and aluminum tape, those 12" fans that you get in 2 packs from the box stores. The room is under constant positive pressure. Exhaust is handled via carbon filter and a 170cfm inline pushing out through the hood. The room just received new upgrades. I got a free new in box 1k dimable digital ballast with a new Hortilux. I splurged and bought a lightrail. I moved the LED (ds300) back to veg area and eliminated 1 light. I will also not use anymore electricity than I've been allocated. I still need to dial in what I'm doing to maximize the duct runs but right now I can touch the glass and not fry myself. Now to the meat. Currently I'm running Soma's Buddha's Sister. I have 4 plants each in #15 smart pot SIP 2 in each pan. Here is the setup http://forum.grasscity.com/organic-...nbs-self-wicking-smartpot-ghetto-setup-2.html These are then LST for about 50-60 days. One unit comes out, one goes in. No-till, h20 only with the occasional neem tea. The strains I've been running recently are finishing about 4-5 ft above the soil line. The current plants are at 8 weeks and 4 weeks since flip. Veg area, next one ready to go in another just started. Some GGA's that aren't happy me at the moment. Well that's it in a nutshell. Next up IRG.
That's so funny, I just got caught up on your journal. Sub'd up this morning. Glad to have ya Brother.
DOH!!!! That's what I get for looking away for a minute HAGGARD!!! THANK YOU Ficky (Sticky)...on behalf of many other 'blades' I thank you as well. Your advice and tidbits here and there have been invaluable to me, and having a spot to put them all?? Priceless imo You da man NICE start btw (it's a jungle in there!)..subbed, fo shore.
Thanks everyone, glad to see so many familiar faces. Gilly, no I've been collecting everything for a while. I got some stuff mounted up a few weeks ago only to realize that my ancient hood has what looks like a common hood mogul plug but the third post was up instead of down. Had to rewire the hood with a new cord and replaced the mogul in the process. I do miss the CMH bulbs though. That spectrum is awesome, but I wanted to get more penetration to maximize the space. So when I got the offer for the 1k I was all over it.
I've been wondering when the hell you were going to start a journal! I'm here and I may have packed a few pre-rolls
Thanks everyone! Nice to have so many well wishers. Not much of an update, but took some clones yesterday. And had a piece of sheet metal try and take off my finger. Nine stitches later, I'm bandaged up and back in action. However, this put a minor obstacle in getting some soil re amended and cycling for the next round. Oh well, shit happens, this gimp will get er done this week.
Ficky, Glad to see you still have all 8 fingers attached . heal up and we'll be kickin back enjoying the view! Ill still be checking in regularly on gc even on vacation. No better way
