Since it is a drip setup, he shouldnt really have need to reach plants in the back unless something goes wrong.

well there is trimming and such too ... but a grow this large, i think he probably has it under control. would hate to see a clogged dripper though ...
 
cant beat a bucket SOG, Nice! I hope your buds look like soquicks!

how big of ac per room?
sealed w/ co2?
not aircooling those daystar acs?

I only see 4 lights in room 2..are you using movers?

hey man, I don't see how you feel insulted. Soquick had some monster yields of colas bigger than a mans leg with the Lucas formula. So I mean it obviously is not crap, are there better formulas and mixtures out there yeah of course. I think many people will agree GH nutes and the Lucas formula are not crap, or insulting by any means. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong and maybe you could post your nute regimen and show us all the light.

I'm not trying to attack you and am not a diehard lucas fan, just dont think you should insult those who use it, know what i mean? :yes:

i think you got me wrong.
im about growing THE BEST. AND trying to get BOAT loads of it.

lucas works. and will get the job done. you'll have some plant matter with trichombes and all that.

i just happen to want people to smell my bag(within a bag, within another bag), before i even walk up. AND.. AND. i want it to stick TO THE BAG.
i want each genetic line to be as pronounced as possible.

i also need to make sure the plants are "ready", im not just talking 'ok to flower' or, 'established', i want them screaming "BITCH, flower me NOOWW!!"

using PGR's such as bushmaster or bloom phat cause terpine production to decrease, have to make sure that is addressed aswell.

id give some more info on my line but everyone seams to love growing
"work weed"
im not doing anything people havent talked 20 kinds of shit on.
besides, it doesnt matter what fertalizer you use, routine maintinance and TRIMMING are bigger keys then people give them credit for.

Hey digital you said ice box the hoods right? If im correct i seen my first ice box yesterday.... is that the contraction that you put on the exuast of your lights with cold water going through and it acts as a a/c of some sorts taking the hot water down the the re and recirculating it....


if it is wondering if you ever used them or if this is your first shot with them? They seem like a good invention but i would think you need a chiller to keep that rez cool... let me know im real interested.... Nice room btw...

i dont have them yet...
next round i will.... need $$$$$$
im going to drop 900$ on ice boxes, and another 200-300 on tubeing and pumps. ill have atleast 6 iceboxes at first, with the desire to add up to 4 more. after getting a 25k btu chiller i shouldnt even need a/c units(i have 2 15k btu's and a 5k btu)

you need a chiller, a big one. www.icehousedistributions.com


till then im just using the fans between the hoods without iceboxes or ducting, and relying on my 15k btu a/c to cool the room. been solid so far, i had a good friend help me do a fine job installing the unit.

should have some pics up tomorrow, no internet @ my house right now, but i just got a hold of a digi to use.

i started growing about 5-6 yrs ago using lucas, never grew anything worth talking about. got me stoned, sure, but wasnt enjoyable to smoke.

so you do a mix of organic and inorganic hydro pretty much correct? Im interested to hear what you have found makes the best all around herb, you have more growing experience than me and im just curious what works best for you. if its a secret i understand but im sure we could all use the info, let us know :dueling:

Looks great Hippy. Keep us posted man. I agree with you on the importance of trimming! Great point.

Have you ever tried running bigger pots than those 4x4 white pots to give them bitches more root space? I find plants appreciate all the root space they can get and those smaller pots get packed full in E/F

Keep us posted bro!
