Ebb And Flowin For Tk

[mrwags]

Well here are some shots of the box's new digs. I went ebb and flow this time and also a first timer with Ready Grow Soil Mix. Currently 26 Days from seed. Have 4 Northern Lights x BB and 15 Skunk Special all from female seeds on seeds direct. Thus far is easy to see the NlxBB are kicking ass and can only hope all the others catch up. Running Using Pure blend Pro,Lq,and Cal Mag. Had them under a 125 watt floro from worms way for 2 weeks and recently moved under a 400 Hortilux Blue and will use the Hortilux Super hps en for flower. I'm currently at 500 ppm with ph at 6.0 water is heated to a steady 69 degrees with 4 12 air stone running from a four outlet big ass air pump in a 20 gallon res. I felt I over watered in the beginning but after talking to Mr. Meogi (TK) I now feel they might need a little more mag atleast the nlxbb due (wish I had a box Of those Instead) anyway I can tell a diffrence in using the ready in the node spacings,maybe it's the new bulb but they seem to be a lot tighter this time around therefore I'm gonna veg the shit out of these little bitches and clone me some tops so I won't haft to wait so damn long this round to get going. I encountered a bad spider mite problem last time around and all mommies were lost a summers worth of work gone due to lack of experience. But oh well live and learn. Here's The New Digs:

hey there mr. wags,
very cool setup! im pulling up a chair . i to have been asking zen master tk questions abought his setup . i want to do a flood and drain sea of green ...so im very interested in your grow.. im sending positive energy your way!!!!

 

[Guest]

Killer setup Waggs, now that's the way to committ

Ventilation and temp are your enemy so keep an eye on it.

Good growin man and the gentics you have should be quite tasty

Healthy lookin plants and don't loose any sleep over the little bottom leaves at the very bottom yellowing a little. Nice node spacing on the pic.

Tk thats the thing With this sealed box I can control the temps. I have inside the larger box a digital heater. I keep that baby at 63 degrees (it's freakin 16 degrees outside now) and my little grow box stays at 76-78 degrees it's a beautiful thing man and with the humidifier shooting right into the air intake I can control the humidity as well. I can take either one, temp or humidity and put it where I want and inside each box is a wireless temp and humidity meters I keep by the bed it even has an alarm to wake me up if anything goes out of wack(technology is our friend). And the dual fan above the door is digital to. I can have one blow in and one out or vice versa and set the thermostat on that as well. In your earlier posts I've read a hundred times you said as long as you can control these two things the rest should come much easier.Time Will Tell. Is ph at 6.0 ok and also my res temp is at 69 is this correct because as I said I can control Res temp heat and humidity. Also I included some pics of the aerocloner upgrade those are 9 360 spinners instead of 1 (stock form) Now If I could only clone one of your thumbs I'd be set.

looking good mrwags...... you gpot the best mentor around!!

To everyone a big thanks. I still have not returned to the office yet. It's been 4 months now reading and reading and reading for the day I turned it loose. But would'nt you know I now feel a need for some of those damn buckets. Those things look so cool and I've seen the trees they produce first hand. I figured I get this one going and maybe build a new garage in the spring. Could not be as far as I gotten without you guys. I've been planting my own for about 15 years now. But I must say walking out by the river and throwing down some seeds and coming back a few months later to see what happened does not make you a grower. Seeing what you guys can do made me realize that. It's just like when I sold Crotch Rockets (motorcycles) in Florida, $10,000 does not buy talent I used to tell them. It only buys the tools. Hope I can give something back this time.

Well we have gotten a foot and a half of snow. I'm snowed in to say the least it's a nice -5 outside but atleast I got a 77 degree tropic zone to go to and see. I'll get some new pics up later.

Well said.

That's just how I feel. Cold here too, but it's nice in my room. I've got my head under the lamps so much that I might start getting a tan. I've even thought about bringing in a recliner and TV.

Well been away for a few days to try to go where their is no freakin snow. Thats right Vegas Baby. Spent New Years at the top of the new Hilton on the strip and staggered (a big winner by the way) home to find the girls are trying their little hearts to become something. Man I must say the hortilux blue bulbs rock. the spacings are tighter and make these little bitches squat down and spread. I'm gonna top some about the middle of next week to use the new cloner and just wanted to post a quick update,and hope everybody had a good 1st.











And yes TK thus far I'm loving the Ready Grow and my first try at ebb and flow.
Oh and GreatLakes I feel your pain but I heard it was around the 60's this weekend around are parts. At least the damn snow is almost gone. For now anyway thanks for stopping by.

Lookin great man,

Ready Gro, no fuss, no muss. I did cut my water cycles back to three, two during lights on and one in the middle of lights off. I am thinking of going to just one long cycle at the beginning of the lights on cycle

Keep up the great work

To the victor go the spoils

Well I was gonna say something to you about that. The early yellowing was infact overwatering. At the point I'm at now I flood once a day at lights on. I've got a rapidtest meter but have gone to the pot lifting method to see when they were light. a few weeks ago I was watering once every 2 days with no ill effects and no more yellowing. But as I told you in our pm's I did move from the cups to the pots way way to early for some and paid the price of some slow ass veg time compared to the ones I firmly rooted before the move to the pots. Live to Learn and Learn to Live I always say. Just don't make the same mistake twice!

Nice and healthy looking mrwags .Doing a wonderfull job :wink: .


P.S. I thank you for the sweet pm :smile: .

 

[mrwags]

WOW words from the tree lady. That means alot to me Teresa ty. How's your redwoods doing. Maybe in 10-20 more years I can become a weed whisperer like TK the man does'nt even use a ph pen just lets the girls talk to him and tell them what they want,I wanna learn that. You guys and gals do make it kinda like grow by numbers monkey see monkey do. You just gotta read and read some more. And by the way Teresa that pm was well deserving my dear.

[BigToke]

Just had to stop in and say what a very well looking growroom you have there, good job man.

 

[mrwags]

Those kind words coming from you guys well lets just say I'm blushing. But Big Toke I got a hard on to try out some of those beautiful looking bucket setups you make us drool over. I'll get a little more time under my belt and well see. Because as TK knows new years in Vegas was very very good to me. (This Time Anyway)

I'm going to be topping a few of the girls tomorrow and putting in an aerocloner. This will be my first time using this machine and was wondering if the group would have any tips. The girls are nlXbb and skunk specials from female seeds on seeds direct. The bb have grown to about twice the size of the skunk and was hopeing to maybe try to top and even them out but read cloning bb was a bitch. Any suggestions are appreciated in advance.
