thanks connoisseur,i was hoping to have a little hash when things are done..i have a few that are budding up very nice ..i should have bud in another month to smoke..not tric yet but things are changing everyday..i didnt realize some of the strains i got came from mark emmerys seeds before they got shut down..so i am seeding out a few buds to restock..cant let those fall to the way side..may even have a few to spare..wink ,wink..i'll pm ya when things are closer to knowing what i end up with..

I've had some very stable strains from emery. I would go as far as to say i've had more stable, potent and tasty herb from the breeders emery distributed for than Sensi Seeds who has been around for years.
Please do not let them fall to the way side. do you remember who the breeders were? I"m very interested in knowing.


i am up and running at about 50 % right now indoors..i have 4 bubblers going with 2 to 3 plants in each..i got some blueberry clones from my buddy and the one was infested with spider mites ..or at least thats all i am hoping it is..and not thrip..been spraying them with tobbaco juice ..hope that gets rid of them..anywayus things are finilly falling into place..

50% is good you must be getting pretty excited now. I was thinking for my next grow I might go with 4 plants instead of 5 to see what happens. The best pest controll i've seen to date is Neem oil. Go to your local garden center and ask for it. Plus it's all organic. It will wipe out spider mites and thrips like an atomic bomb. Just make sure your ph is under 7 when you use it.

thanks for the lead on the hash..

talk to ya later.

Gumbi Hash is a water extraction method that works just like bubble bags but without the bags or the heavy lifting of bags full of water.

To check out the full video go to Youtube and look up gumbi hash. Have fun and let me know how it turns out.
 
yeah i am in contact with the guy all the time..he's got a bunch of test grows going with a bunch of us from diffrent web sites and around the world...i am not sure what name he sell's his beans under but i'll look into it and pm ya the details...he may need more testers down the road and if he dose i'll drop him your name...hes really cool and when i mess things up he sent me more beans to fix the problum..also sent me some amazon beans..cant wait to see what comes from them..15 footers outdoors..he said 2 lbs per plant on those..all my germ rates were at 100% and am at 70 to 80% female ratio..not bad for standerd...cant even beleave the buds on some of these already and its just july now..my autos are full of buds and i should harvest in the next month..friggen place is smelling great...haha

Hey cool gumby hash bro I'm glad that you are doing that, I started the idea of it a while back cuz I saw it on youtube but I haven't seen anyone do it since the member nokuy. Anyway I don't wanna tell you what to do, but be careful rolling your hash into a ball before its all the way dry I hear it molds very easily. But sweet grow man I can't wait to try gumby hash!

Nice to see you drop in! Thanks for the props on the hash. You started the idea?? Really? What ever happen t nokuy? is he still around?
I love constructive advice so next time I make the gumbi i'll let it dry all the way.

Next time is comming real soon.

here I have some pics of my Dream Godess about three weeks into flower. This is some good bud folks.

The first pic is one of the plants I topped.


A pic with all five in the one system.


This looks to be a very nice bud.

Now here we have some Mothers Finest that seem to want to flower for atleast 12 weeks.









This pic is of some mothers finest in week 6 or 7 flower


The buds on mothers finest look like their going to be pretty big if they decide to fill out more. If they don't start filling out nicely soon i'm going to cull it and remove it from the garden. Plus I don't think I want a 12 week strain. I'd much rather sprout the other 5 beans I have and look for more of the indica pheno in Mothers Finest. The pack said 50 to 60 day flower for the indica pheno. I have the Haze pheno because I don't see anything than sativa in this one.
It looks more like a sativa than my kalimist

I also Have a couple of trainwrecks flowering right now. and a strain which I have not named yet.

Trainwreck #3 looks to be a winner. It has the biggest buds but gets quite tall. Not much frost yet.


Here is Trainwreck #2. quite a bit smaller than #3 but the buds could fill out more on this one so we'll have to wait and find out.

Welcome mg00c! Thanks for stopping in my grow. Is this your first grow?

I'll tell you everything I can about my current setup. I'm also fabricating another organic cab also.

I use BC Technaflora products. Their made in British Colombia Canada. Good stuff and easy to use. Check your local hydro supplier.



The containers came from Wal-Mart in the rubbermaid section on the bottom shelf. They only carry six containers at a time so you have to keep going or find out when the truck comes in so you can grab them first.





What size is your cab???

Thanks for checking out my show.
You wouldn't think of it as a micro grow with 30 plants but man they sure dont take up as much space as my past rooms with 30 to 50 plants filling an entire room.

Keep on top of things and your grow could be better than mine. I have a lot of room to improve and plan on doing so in the next month. You'll see stay tuned.

hey connoisseur, thanks for the info man. this will be my second attempt at indoor growing. 6 months ago i started a grow but i had to move all my plants outside because i was having trouble with my electricity. all that should be fixed by the end of this week and hopefully both of my grow boxes will be complete by the end of today. I'm going to start a new thread very soon and ill upload pics on that.

I'm really happy to hear that technaflora is the brand that you use because that is the only brand that my garden store carries.

my flower cabinet is 28 x 20 x 40" high and my veg/mother cabinet is 14 x 28 x 20" high. my veg cabinet has 4 different 20 watt fluorescent tubes and my flowering cabinet has 2 150 watt hps with remote ballasts.

hopefully i'll have my thread up with all my pics by the end of tonight. thanks again for all the info connoisseur.

Your right about the noodles. Thay do work great for smaller plants in a system like this. The only problem I have ran into is when I overgrow my plants and thay get to heavy for the noodles.

In this pic of some DW X GB just before harvest you can see how I had to push the bottom of the stems all the way down to the bottom of the unit so I could control the hight of the plants I wansn't sure what was going to happen to them sense I had never tried it before but everything worked out and I didn't see any noticable changes in growth.


Found this thread again..about to start my build so gave it a good read through, few questions.

1. You said you spent 1400? Are you talking about growing period or just this setup? This setup seems extremely cheap minus lights, am I wrong?

2. In the image above with the roots looking like a brick, how did they not cut off the air stone from doing its job?

3. I've never messed with these so this question may be dumb but is the air pump sitting inside/outside the bucket? Inside I assume, and if so where'd you feed the chord through?

Thanks, and great grow man.

Hellotheresir-

1. You said you spent 1400? Are you talking about growing period or just this setup? This setup seems extremely cheap minus lights, am I wrong?
Good question. 1400 is the price for everything. The box and every screw in it plus everything you need to grow and about a years worth of supplies. Just the box isn't very much but more than you expect in the end. You know? You could go much cheaper and cut much more corners than I and end up with a just as good end product I believe. I just had my little dream plan and wanted to go through with it. Now I have another dream about a month or two away.:)

2. In the image above with the roots looking like a brick, how did they not cut off the air stone from doing its job?
I have no idea, but they give me buds everytime. I do have to chang the air stones every couple of week though. 1.00 for a pac of two or something like that.

3. I've never messed with these so this question may be dumb but is the air pump sitting inside/outside the bucket? Inside I assume, and if so where'd you feed the chord through?
Their is no such thing as a dumb question. Just dumb people. Just kidding. No really, the air pumps were also purchased from wally-world and are external air pumps. The air line is running as close to the top of the container as possible. Air line also from Wally-World.

Thanks, and great grow man.

No, no, thank you and welcome to ICmag.

No, no, thank you and welcome to ICmag.

Sparked an idea, what about getting a stronger air pump and running multiple feeds, IE 4 buckets per pump? I'm excited to start this to say the least..my tent and 400w mh is on its way. :rasta:

What section would I find those under? I just looked at wal-mart.com and typed in air pumps and mostly found the pumps that blow up beds. I'll have to make a trip there soon and try to find for myself.
