Yeah Stoney I usd a few sprays of the eagle20 bout 3 months ago been gone since. It's the shit. I gave my boy inb a cut a while back and warned him. Finally got the bottle to battle. It's a shame waited so long. That og was dank. Thanks for the tutorial homie

Bg- thanks man I gotta thow up something current one o these days

Well so far so good with the Harvey. I've completed the decap. 3 elbows 10 zips solid and a whole lotta popcorn that will be used otherways. Chems catpiss and slh to go. Looks like 6 total when done but I gotta see wish me luck. 1.5 per bulb ain't bad in dirt with no love lol quality def went down to dirt results, but still dank. I just kill dirt quality in coco. I am pleased with results like I should be. But I'm not amazed like usual.
The next run is so much better. Coco and back on my bloom mad scientist schedual

damn that canopy is rockin man....im impressed with everything about your grow especially the neatness like i said earlier on....looking at this inspires me to clean things up a bit..


did you do the mini split and most other fabrication by yourself, shit looks proper...


thats a jungle for sure....how often do you move plants around to get into the corners...

Ido- luckily i am back focused on the garden again. i had some personal shit going on and almost lost it all in a month and a half. then with all the problems in the room i just was giving up n didnt really care at one point. just issue after issue no matter what i did. then i visited a couple other's gardens and it remotivated me- did some self medicating and worked out the personal issues, went and had some fun a couple times n im recharged. people dont realize the amount of work that it takes to run an overcrowded bloom and veg room planning and maintenance, and especially hand watering. no days off 7days a week and just at the end of the evening when everyone else is winding down for bed n relaxing, i'm headed to the garden for 3 hours minimum of lifting bending over hunching squating crawling cleaning you name it. my light comes on at 9 so i get done at 12-1am then i goota be up early to get in there again in the morning for the other set. i can not wait to have more space to automate feeding lol im not complaining either i love being in there most the time but i sure was nice to have a break despite the setbacks
ill make her yeild. mine are huge lol

damm i was wondering if you were handwatering...that shit is a fulltime job!! i feel you 100 percent on the overcrowding and constant work that needs to be done....you are doing more than me but i still feel burnt out pretty tough sometimes, especially when friends call about parties and girls and i cant go out because the plants are looking droopy or some other shit needs to be fixed....


balancing the veg room and flower room is a battle for sure....constant calculations and visually planning ahead...sometimes i just stand in awe for minutes trying to figure out exactly what route i have to take...which plants go here which plants go there whats getting flowered whats getting vegged....

for veg i always wish i had more room lol....i recently went out and bought a 4x4 tent too...my flowering room is somewhat automated but the veg is all handwater and that can be a tottal bitch sometimes...speaking of which gotta go downstairs and knock that out...


im just amazed that you filled the whole room up....i had to carve a little path in between my lights so i can manavuer around...sacrificing yield for conveniance i guess....keep us posted with what setup you are gonna automate that shit with...some kind of drip irrigation or something?

Y4P215- wassup my brotha? good to see ya through. about those ?s
i did all the work myself, except i had the lines pressure checked and gas released by a Pro, it was the first installment to the room.
gotta keep the room clean right... its the best preventative u can do to not only avoid problems, but to easily identify when there is one occuring. i never move plants, this round i did spin the ones on the edge clockwise every now and then since i was abscent a net. i wish there was a net. yeild would have been substantially more. shit was a mess by end week 6.
i have a perimeter around the garden "footprint". i use quotes because it always hits the walls lol. but i can crawl or hunch around the edges. i hand watering for that reason. its nice to work on a res at the front of the room and not carry all that weight hunched over.
i had 2 seperate veg rooms this time and that was a bitch to water cause they were jammed and i had to remove some each time to work glad thats over. i now have a 11 x 10 veg room whew what a differance elbow room makes.
the new rig is back to the old style manifold drip drain to waste coco
i heard of these lil sprayers i wanna check out but for now i have adjustable drippers. just the fact that i will be automated again feels good. i can do more with my time in the garden rather than sweat watering them on my labor. it leaves more time for tending other chores that sometimes get behing on setup like mine. and i will have more room in bloom room so no more struggling there either. saving time everywhere lol:thank you:for the visit man u know how the game goes lots of work...

hey maj- nice to see ya. what 5 decaps? i chopped 3 n got 9.5z decap on the first ones to fall over. is that what u mean?
i need to update the veg, that is where the cuts u gave me the First week of Feb are still. they account for about 30% atm 11 sugar shack all rooted and 18 strwdzl ML all rooted and 5 decap all rooted. healthy cuts. i had about 30 girls(nurtured to full health) + my moms in the closet. they are all huge now i have to use the moms. thanks for the return of the strwdzl i missed it.:tiphat:

where does the drip waste go? i was doing drip to waste and just emptying out the catch pans...super ghetto. i was thinking about rigging a pump in there or something but i think im going ebb-n-flow next run because i have the trays....


im also seriously considering switching to coco...losing patience with soil..

check the new Whip Game

check the new Whip Game

Y4P215- the waste goes right on the floor. there is very lil to speak of and it evaporates. once feeding is dialed runoff is not necessary in coco, or soil for that matter. i just did a soil grow no runoff. easy as pie but i hate having the garden dictate my time.
i highly recommend coco. unless outdoors, dirt is outclassed in every respect, yeild quality and automatable. except for the gardener with only a few girls to worry about or the beginner that NEEDS to build a relationship with the plant and learn in the most forgiving medium, there is no reason to not make the transition.
E&F with smart pots is the straight easiest cleanest thing ive seen. ResinRiders room is the shit, and so are his coco gals. however drain to waste drip is the cheapest to set up(@mysize) and most efficient on the nutrients. cant beat it. there is almost zero waste, literally. with my method, the system flushes itself each week and i simply refill res and mix new weeks batch.
if i may, for a nurtient recommendation, my experience has shown floraNova as the best Sinlge part and if wanna get spendy H&G as the best A/B combo. what ever u do, use silica in some form and enzymes and micohorizi/bacteria. coco is just that, coco. nothing more. it needs the life put into it for great benefits, and silica will keep those branches strong... hope that gives you some info to consider. i know most of you Fam know ur shit:tiphat:

Brother Core- long missed my main man. i have been well! thanks for asking. hopefully the same for you too. please if ya have something going drop a link i have been terrible about looking on the forums myself. just busy is all. hope to see you more frequently


ok Fam, i got plenty of news.
1st order of biz, your ol' boy SirSmokalot will officially become a Father in December! :jump: same month as me:ying:

2nd yeild was ok at just over 5.5. quality was there on the main tops, i wish i had put a net up the floppy mess would have done much more. well thats what happens when u are lazy about shit. it costs you. live and learn. :moon: speaking of live n learn

congrats on fatherhood smokey...thanks for the advice on coco i am considering switching but first i need to iron out some faults in my room...


i went with exhaust/intake because it seemed the easiest and my friend was running 5kw rooms with no problems....well now im having heat issues creeping around 85 if im running only 4 lights so i gotta figure this out...


where does the exhaust from your lights go too? looks like you punched a hole in your ceiling and are venting out the roof?


now i want to go sealed room but thats gonna be a bitch to pull off when i got plants in there flowering right now...kind of at a crossroads right now not sure what path to take...

thanks fellas

thanks fellas

uncle sprout- thanks for the genuine congrats! i try to give solid advise, proven knowledge not theories. i hate misinfo on here i do my best to stay on top of my game. my results speak volumes. im ready for fatherhood bro, 28 now... its time and it was great new for me!!!

Incognegro- first may i say congrats to you my friend how awesome. i am excited myself and doing everthing i can to get my shit together so i can be around plenty to help raise baby too. when ever you need info about my shit just ask. always glad to help.:ying:
enjoy your fatherhood bro!

Y4P215- thanks to you as well!
yes lights on own air circuit. 10" HO can fan push through 6 hoods from one end of attic to other. this space is dedicated to growing so i will explain more room details when i update. pretty simple setup. i can tear it down in 2 hours prob faster if i didnt care about cleanliness. lil advise, sealed is the safest setup for security purposes. thats why i do it.

LGS- yikes is right , i dont need that shit in my life. :ying:

maj- keep private shit private. dont bother others on ic with ur BS if you wanna talk just come over. is that so hard. thanks
 
Haha poppa smokesalot, soon itll be sirsmokes(notasmuch). Once again give your lady some love for me, ill be down to take you out for a congratulatory beer soon. Week or two, soon as i get some extra cheese. New setup looks rad!!!! Im curious to see what a problem free run turns out. Peace
