F45 v3.0 "Ricky's Dope Farm"

Meant to do this update a couple nights ago, but still sicker than a dog...
Finally got the second lights in my closet. It's game fucking on now! Still need to put in the drippers, but that won't take more than 20 minutes, and likely will do that after I flip Tami.

Here are the HK#1. Stretch is pretty much over, and I am actually thankful for the cold temps keeping them short, since I don't have the cash for 3 more lights right now...


Transplanted some leftover clones for my outdoor run this year.

My biggest concern right now is the heat from four 600s in a 5x8 closet. I have an extra 6" fan if needed, just don't want to have to cut a hole in my roof with plants in there...

WOW everything looks good...if you live long enough to see it to fruition....hope you feel better Doc Death!

Picked up a set of snap lock Pyrex from Costco for my purging. The plastic canister didn't hold up to the vac. The Costco sealer cost $200 and I suspect that at least 75% of that cost, which is what a 2-3 cfm pump costs. I have to check the specs, but looks like I may have saved a few shekels...






Lights come on in about an hour, and will snap some close ups of the closet. Crossing my fingers on the temps with the extra lights...

That hash looks damn good! Now don't go paving your driveway with it...

Lol! I wouldn't waste it on a driveway, maybe an oil sculpture, but so wasted on a driveway, or maybe wasted on a driveway. See what I did there? Haha...

Fell asleep fully clothed, with a beer so untouched the lemon was still in the neck; guess I was tired...
Woke up to find my last Tami run fully purged, and a run that should have been recovered before I passed out, but you wouldn't know since the oil looked the same as a standard pull. I guess it's good to know the flexibility of the system.

Fell asleep before I could feed my closet, and woke up to wilted plants. Good thing I caught it this morning, and they should be fine. Need to set up the drippers today for sure.
I was told by a friend that the Sis sets flowers a little slow, but picks up by week 4. My concerns were unfounded, and she is catching up quick!

Looks like I should add that second fan and put it on the same cycle as the lights. Temps were 85 degrees at canopy level.

Yumm...

Panoramic. About 3 weeks in, and buds fucking everywhere. I don't even want to speculate on finished weight, but so far, best run yet.

 

[hotboxes]

Very nice. I am feeling this way about my current run in the new tent, and its probably going to be mostly one plant the one in the PPK. I will be lucky if the rest total the amount of the 1 ppk plant lol everything looks great man keep up the great job.

Spent the day in the veg room. Built the second set of shelves, and transplanted the leftover GSC. I will be gearing up for the teen market for the outdoor season, so more space the better.

I started my foliar feed routine, and will be keeping it up 2 or 3 times a week.

 

[hotboxes]

Dude you need one of those little swivel stools on casters, like $40 make life in that room easier fo sho !!

 

[Arminius]

F45 v3.0 "Ricky's Dope Farm"

Yeah, no shit... And a mini fridge for refreshing beverages...

 

[hotboxes]

well if you want to go that far thats up to you lol, but having to get up and move in that lil spot would be a pain in the arse for sure ha ha ha but why not just put a wide screen in there with the fridge. watch the game and clone your ladies while sipping on your favorite brew sounds like a plan and no better way to have your man cave right?

Haha. Luckily since I am now single my entire house is a man cave.
In all seriousness, a swivel chair is what I envisioned. Take my mothers from one side, take cuts on the table, and stick them in trays to the right.
My biggest trouble right now is my Chem S that are approaching 30", taking up too much room on my veg table. At least they don't stretch too much, but will need stacked bulbs and screens for them. I have about $1500 in clones that will be gone in a week, so at least the funds for 4 more lights are very close. Just need to set the door and my next room is ready. I only have enough plants ready to fill half the room, so may temporarily partition it in half for now.
Either way light is at the end of the tunnel. Just need to hustle next months rent, and then will have two rooms coming down in April. After that it should be a room every 3-4 weeks. I see a pair of bonsai heroes in my future!
Peaches and cake!

 

[silver hawaiian]

Hot damn Armi, you's busier'n a one-legged man at a butt-kickin' contest!

Everything is lookin' good, though. My first thought at the veg room was "Holy shit that's a lot of good-sized plants."

And then you were all

"I only have enough plants ready to fill half the room, so may temporarily partition it in half for now."

Good for you duder. Everything is looking great!

All of your hard work is not in vain my friend..

 

[hotboxes]

yeah for sure I hear you there my birthday is right before 420 and all my ladies will be down like 10 days before so it should be ready by June hopefully cuz thats what is going to fund my restart in sept. I will have another round going in after this one but thats not going to be ready till at least august, and I have been out of meds since January so april won't get here soon enough I am so sick of getting BS from peeps on the street.

One legged butt kicking contest hahaha!

 

[whatthe215]

really really nice veg room Arminius. is everything in there hand watered?

 

[Arminius]

F45 v3.0 "Ricky's Dope Farm"

For now, but I will be running 1/2" PVC with shut off valves placed so I can turn a knob, and water a station. The clones while in trays get hand watered, but I would love to figure out how to put that shit on a timer. If I don't water the cubes twice a day while they are on the heating mats, I lose a couple here and there. But there is a fine line between too wet, and dead...
