What's new

The Farmhouse

Just cuz it`s my nature to cover up every sq in. of canopy area , I`d say put 2 more plantsites/netpots in the corners up front where the pvc lines go in for a perfect 128 plantsite to work off of for dialed results and yields.......IOW......

128-1/4 oz budsicles is 2 lbs straight up , dried and cured.......The same number of 1/2 oz budsicles is 4 lbs , so on and so forth , cuz sky`s the limit with the right hybrid in flat OR vert setups.........

The staggered pattern looks to give more area for plantlet development till end of stretch , but I hope yas can get to the plants against the wall when they need tending in late flower......but.......

All in all I`m stoked to see it online and hoonin.......and for the record......soaking/brining/marinating pork , chicken , or beef only develops more layers of flavor the longer they soak by osmosis........

Hell.....I`ve brined/injected/marinated big steaks , beef and pork loins and tenderloins , and whole chickens for a week with excellent results.....but......

Back ta growin......

Get them tubs full of rooted cuts and make this shit happen.......Waitin patiently , and hope ya`ll enjoyed the Redneck Poppers.......:moon:.....

Peace....Freds.....:ying:......
 
I was gonna do that Fred...(add those corner plants )dont know why i didnt. I think i figured i was stretching the footprint a little wide?

Im on it!

Also,

I have the system plumbed with disconnects so i can slide each container forward one at a time and tend the plants. :biggrin:

The first lid i drilled the holes 5 across, straight. Then i smoked a bowl and my mind expanded and the rest of the lids i checker boarded the holes (much better)! hehehe

I noticed the inline pattern on the second rez and saw where yas corrected it , and ......

Glad ta hear there`s no worries when it comes time to clean out flarf and foliage to keep airflow at an optimum after end of stretch into late flower .......I`m just sayin.....

We`re growin single cola donkey dicks ftw .....so.........We want the biggest and bestest of the bestest all but touchin each other and weighin 28 grams each dried and cured in a perfect world right ?........:peacock:....All things are possible.......and.....

Everyone needs goals.......:moon:........8 lbs would be sweet huh ......Make it happen Bro.....You da man......

Peace....Freds.......:ying:......

Got her loaded and ready to go.

I had reflectix on the top with holes cut but i decided against it because it cant lay flat, and i dont want any nasties growing underneath it. Also Dhf, i decided to wait till next round to use the corner sites as i didnt want to drill and disturb the plants that were already in the system and i didnt want to make a new mess after i just got everything cleaned up.

hey man, looks fucking incredible. Those are gonna be sick, and I can give you a few suggestions on how to get as close to 28 gram plants as possible.

I would try to achieve a single cola which is 14 grams or so, and then 4-5 secondary buds, weighing about 4 grams each.

From the onset of flower, I would pinch off ALL the lower branches, leaving only the strongest, closer to the top branches. Personally, with SourD for me, which stretches for 30 days, I chop off lower shit for the first 50% of veg, and then only if absolutely necessary after day 16. I would chop anything that didnt fit the blueprint.

dont be afraid to pick off a leaf once or twice a week during stretch, getting light to the main stem/cola really makes that sucker stretch. once you are safely past stretch, slowly strip the huge fans off the plant, taking everything with a stem off the plant by day 50. What I have seen in high flow hydro, is that this style of growing is great in regards to recovery from shock/transplant/trimming.

thats it for now; whatever you are growing, i hope it is a hybrid with a little stretch. As long as you approach the grow plant by plant, and aim to have all the plants exactly the same, you can do 28g plants. all it takes is giving each plant attention every time you are in the grow.

Thx redbud! And your right. If theres one thing iv'e learned growing in fast aero..its the plants recover fast. (hours instead of days) if there's any shock at all. I planned on going for the single cola donkey dicks with the 1/3 totally stripped. Anything over an inch above that gets removed. But if it looks doable then maybe a couple lower buds may be in the cards..but they are packed in tight. Guess i will just play it by ear.
Al b fuct recommends trimming the stem after one week into 12 and 12. Then again at end of week 3.

The strains are LVPK (purple collars first 2 containers) and Green Crack (green collars) back 2 containers.

Its gonna be interesting to see how this comes out. This will be my first attempt at i high plant count clone sog. Hope i wont dissapoint!

Also.. if any of yall know of a proven strain with all the bells and whistles and yields in a setup like this...im all ears.



Thanks for the tips!

ya man, trimming the stems up really helps the main cola grow all that much better. I figure that since the roots are being grow to handle the plant WITH all that extra shrubbery, when you remove the lower bullshit the roots still deliver all the extra nutrients to the remaining main cola. conversely, I find if you top a plant for 4-6 colas, you better have the root mass to deliver the goods to those added colas.

just keep us updated with pictures; I wont hold back in telling you what needs to go. I have scared myself a few times with my radical pruning in during stretch, but always find an increase in yield when done right.
