Overgrow Arthritis

Ahh yes the new lil ones shrink our grow spaces so much, well worth it though. My wife still opens closets during dark times, happens.........until rooms an doors get locks......she hates that lol.

One thing i have noticed is the frost is coming on early an very strong an i think this is a result of the added UV leds. Just gotta have enough led to cover ya space or ya will get smaller buds like mine. I made the mistake of trying to get more light spread by liftin the light higher. Next round will be with another led unit.

You're right about the youngsters. Totally worth all of the sacrifices Really helps to prioritize.

you have some killer genetics that you are working with under those panels

any favorites yet?

Panels lol, i wish bro. Just the one advanced led 180w EF. Next grow will be 2 panels rockin in there. I would have to say the Green Dragon (Chem4 x insane banana kush f9), and the Green Crack are the frotiest an quickest under this led. I've grown out hella frosty nugs before but they didnt tickle my pickle. So the true test will be in the smoke.

The king louie 13 is on another level ofcourse. It seems like when i grow og's i get them to get this garlic og funk stank that is happening with her. The last og i grew was Larry og and people called it "Gotta-Go Og", cause everyone that smoked it would finishing choking an say, "Gotta Go", an bolt for the door. A few days later they would come back around sayin they dont know what happened or how they got home lol.

I wanted to pull the Green Crack at 49days, but i just checked trichs an they are barely turning cloudy with 0 amber. Might have to let this go 8 weeks to be more medicinal for my arthritis.

Heres a few pics of the GC...

Im trying to get a better setup for taking cuts since i cant get rapid rooter mats out here an its a journey to get rhizotonic. So i made a DIY EZ-Cloner, all i need is the lil inserts which i shall pick up this weekend or make something temporary.

Do I run it 24/7 ?

Yep!

Actually, .. I'd run it 24/7 to start, and keep an eye on your water temps. IIRC, you wanna be right around 64-68 or so, .. Too warm and you risk rot..

I just fired mine back up too. :D

It stays cold here so high temps wont be an issue, but too cold will. I got an aquarium heater to keep temps on check.

Thanks for the heads up Silver.

If while running it 24/7 you do encounter any rising water temps
due to the heat from the pump running all day/night, perhaps not
now but say next summer, one of these Lil~doohickeys will take
care of all that... saves a lot of wear and tear on the pump too.

Also uploaded some pics of my Ez-cloner ( very similar too yours)
in my album titled "the clones" there you can see how I cut the lip
off my lid and put and end to all those pesky leaks, happy clone`n ! :ying:

Funny we got the same sprayers, looks very clean. Im using a rubbermaid rubberneck tote that doesny have that inside lip to rest the pvc on. It looks like ya rest the lid right on the sprayers right? I got my sprayers a out 6-8 inches from the lid i believe. Hope it works, gonna have to grab one of those timers in a bit, thanx lil green sprout. Im gonna put it to the test next weekend.
