whot's up my attick

[bongoie]

or secret smelly attick . should have put the stairs in the bedroom and boarded over the original hatch in the hall "maybe next time " .. down in my local shop they sell Medium-density fiberboard MDF attic flooring boards next to the folding attic stairs "handy" as i boarded the area im using and used boards to build 2 sides and a roof of my grow room the other 2 sides are made of bread boards that i had at the time of construction , 2 of which make a slot inn door . remembering everything including the 22 gallon space sava water butt has to fit through the stairs . got a 6 foot height with 4' width and 9' lenght sealed room . only growing in a 4' square area in that room . been @ this several years and have had fun growing . been like a boy with a new toy gathering equipment went from 75W HID upto 400 now 600W got a thermostatic twin fan controller / 6 inch exaust / 4" intake / cool tube / carbon filter / an 8valve autopot system / PH,EC meter / heated prop / oil radiator / 200W blue enviro light , flourescent / air pump / aquarium flour's + ballasts / 600W coil then upgrading to 600W electronic ballast . loads of pots , watering cans , thermometers , sprayers , tubes, etc etc . Strains on the grow ATM are licorice orange crush X hashplant G13 which i've grown out several times B4 she's a hardy 8week indica , strawberry D lite and jack herer . ran JH B4 but she gave me trouble with a 12 week+ flower / armed and ready for it now tho , hopefully ... currently flowering 4 LOCH13 in compost and experementing
with clone's for the gurilla grow http://www.rootrainers.co.uk/ . SD an JH are seedlings . thats the low down up my attick . syphoning off the water tank up there is simple , got it down to a Tee or valve and only spill a drop when watering .

thanks ME best seat in the house M8 , i can smell the popcorn from ere . using the 3 inch root trainers managed to nearly fill a tray with 28 clones { it has 32 cells } most if not all have rooted . so 100% success . like them as there all in a cage that suspends them up , preventing water logging . been using the lid for a seaweed root drench .

 

[MEDI-EVIL]

very stealthy man, you aint going to have much trouble transporting them outdoors bro.
message to self,stop talking to ur self..must get some lol.

[bongoie]

thanks bro , experementing away here , pics on my profile . used autopots with compost and got results tempted to do a coco/perlite autopots grow . 2c if its any faster bigger or better . never done a hydro B4 so that'll b another load of fun i hope .

started a photo album hoping for a shorter flowering pheno or a nice male from JH . The SD's the next project . got a pic of the root trainers in action . under a 200W blue enviro , need 2 take them out of the cage a let some light inn about them , nice roots forming , filled 28 of the 32 cells /got another LOCH13 to rape for clones , could get 2 x 32 cells in ere = a heated prop with vairable temp setting . a great toy for the attic grower , it's a heat pad ATM . ere we grow / using seedling soil with 30 % perlite and a little rooting hormone on the 45 degree cut on clones , started them with a 20W blue , two foot aquarium flourescent placed directly on top of the prop lid and misted with a diluted liquid seaweed extract .

Keeping it real = having a bad grow with the LOCH this time around , pic's just after flush , hoping they are looking a little better now .
Cant always go up the attick with kids around and ventilation problems coupled with rising summer temps peaking at 105 , well !
Also trying out different feed's
And could be guilty of overfeed

The strawberry has come good as i have two feamales reverting back to veg for cloning , chopped the male

Got one male and one feamale jack herer , not pictured
Thanks for looking all comments welcome

 

[bongoie]

Still not resolved the problem and it has worsened , thinking it could this new compost but not sure yet
Got a pic of the strange happenings at my roots , have had to support the plant as it want's to flop at the base where the roots are

Some pics of the Jack Herer Male before chop , the pollen sacks and the Feamale = i had to bend her over as my other plants are short

 

[MEDI-EVIL]

that female jh looks healthy,Ive a plant with roots showing like your's.
my soil washed away when watering from the top.
maybe you have same prob,,
good luck bongoie,keep us up dated..


me.

 

[bongoie]

Thank;s for looking in ME
You could be right about vigerous watering i dont have a shower head on my watering can , it's chopped now so i will be able to inspect the root ball .
Managed to bend that Jack right over , as she is taller than everything else / also have some Amnesia Kush in for sexing , they were gifted to me . so a big thanks there . There not the best but it is whot it is , ta ..
And i got a couple of Chemhaze D clones down the market lol Now have some reservoir genetics as well
Strawberry D is still in reveg , cant wait till i get her up and running
Thanks all for looking in
Glad to have chopped that last grow and start new .
