The Wonderwall w/ bonus aero tree DIY

[GMax]

just turned the green light on in the growroom and did a defol to both WWs..(so I remember when I did a defol last).... the buds on the WW close to harvest are so chunky..!!! it is actually looking surprisingly nice, and may be a spectacular harvest, especially for summer.. it would be tits if I beat my personal record even during the months of July-Aug...deep summer...

the other WW has already had one defol done to it.... but today it is very leafy... it resembles this.. **this isn't actual pic, it from my albums, just as reference to how much leaves there were***




Super leafy like that ^^^^ and was definitely ready for a defol...

I promise I will take some pics tonight or tom... thanks everyone...

I agree Sensi Star is the best shit ive every grown... I was expecting to find Sensi Star in the Bay Area but no one has a cut or sample! It has bag appeal, yield, easy to clone, and a body high that blows other indicas away... Sensi Star my first love....

Ive been looking for Regular seed pack but cant find any... will buy Ferm seeds from the Boutique.

 

[GMax]

speaking of Sensi Star...



here is a Sensi Star mum close to harvest


SS in flower with massive buds in old system.....! this is why I wish I could have done a WW run with her....


SS cola with Nebula behind it


sensi star on left A+ smoke...! and Paradise's Nebula on right..

hope you enjoy that... it brings back memories for me...

I've always loved to smoke sensi star, right before a nice nap! Heavy stuff for sure, and that one looks great!

I've always loved to smoke sensi star, right before a nice nap! Heavy stuff for sure, and that one looks great!

yeah she was great smoke and the first time that the best weed I ever smoked was grown by myself . Nebula was pretty good as well, but nothing like the SS..Sensi was like a one hitter quitter with a sativa high and good yields... incredible... cant believe I didn't keep her around ..

I have been missing the Sensi Star more and more lately.. and I wish more than anything I could have crossed it to Sour Bubble or vice versa.. honestly I will probably order another pack of SS somewhere down the line but there is just too many strains I want to grow in the near future..!!!

but I am ready to get some variety in my garden.. I wanna find a keeper or two out of every pack of seeds I get until I have like 10 different proven mother strains that can provide enough clones at any given time to fill a WW..that way I can alternate strains every week/month and still monocrop, and hopefully have a few different flavors at the same time.... eventually I will have a room specifically for moms.. and I will either grow them in one of my new aero tubs or in a modified waterfarm with a tote as the bottom bucket, so I can grow some monster mother trees...!

I promised pics but sorry no pics today but I will snap some tom and will be harvesting in a couple days...

thanks Big J..!

ok I got rid of the last of my buds yesterday so I am gonna have to take the WW down a couple days early... today is day 50 and they are ready, but I wanted to go to 52, oh well...there will be plenty of WW crops in the future.. it looks like a really good crop too.. I may just take down some of it and let the rest go another couple days, I haven't decided... but I don't think I am gonna use the Spinpro on this, I am gonna hand trim this crop grrrrr... so I got a busy couple days ahead of me....anyways here are some pics....












continued..

 

[GMax]

I also have a crop in veg that is ready to transplant.. my old room has been completely empty for about a week now, so I am gonna use these clones to fill a couple of my old systems... the batch of clones that was supposed to be my next WW crop got messed up a little because I didn't put the lid on the cloner all the way and it leaked.. duh.. I didn't notice until the clones were limp... so some of them got messed up and didn't root at all and but the rest still rooted really well...the first time in a while that I haven't gotten near 100%, I got around 60% but it completely my fault... there are not enough rooted clones to fill a WW so I am gonna use them to fill remaining systems in my old room... so it will be completely full again in about 10 days

then my moms are ready for another haircut so I will just take some more clones asap and they will be my next WW crop.. no harm no foul....

so I got a busy few days... harvest, transplant to flower, transplant to veg, take more clones...

anyways I will continue to post pics of the harvest along the way.... hope you enjoyed watching this crop , stay tuned for the next round

Hope I find something on par with your cut in my sour bubbles Do wish they vegged a bit faster though........

bro you definitely will...!!! the SB was the hardest pack of seeds to find a keeper because every single one was amazing... any female you get is like a precious gem, even males too..... so I just chose the one that stretched and yielded the best wish I would have kept them all really... I am sure you will enjoy it, why not show some pics?!?!? post them here if u want... and keep the humidity at about 70% and she will veg faster....

I only took down about 6-8 oz off the WW, hand trimmed .. I picked strategic buds, mostly tops, and used some paper clips to fill in any gaps so they screen still full and lush... there isn't much leaves on there but I want the sugar leaves to start to yellow a little and buds to chunk up a little more so I am leaving the rest up for a few more days at least... but at least got a little bud going on cause I am running low...

looking like it is gonna be a great crop..!!!! its late, I get some picks up tomorrow...

thanks guys....

damn damn damn I have a problem !!

I was struggling with my bills these last month and I was making sure my important things like electric and water were getting paid on time, but i put my gas on the back burner and fell behind and got shut off... so I have been taking cold showers these last couple weeks... while i was waiting for the WW

so today I paid the $309 to get it back on and now they are saying they need access to my house and basement !!!!!! they say they have to inspect and relight my water heater which is in the basement....

I really don't know what to do now...i huffed and puffed on the phone to a supervisor and they say there is no way around it !! someone has to be here when he is here so I am gonna wait for him outside and try to be all cool and nice.. I will lock all my doors and windows and after he turns it on I will "realize" I have locked myself out of my house, and i will for real.. I have my gf's car right now, so I can say that I have to drive to her work to get the spare key but it will take me about an hour... hopefully the guy will be cool and let it slide... maybe slip him $50 if it comes down to it

idk I am kinda freaking out.... and the fucked up thing is they didn't tell me they were gonna come inside.. i inquired a little further so i would know what was gonna happen and then they told me.... so i could have been without a plan altogether

I shouldn't have fallen so far behind but I had some things happen that put me in a shitty situation... I was already worried enough about not paying my bills on time cause I am usually never late with them, i mean that's 101..... but i didn't know it was gonna cause this big of an issue, i mean fuck i could have actually got busted over it...


i am literally locking myself out, i am not risking it ... my gf does have a key.. so even i couldnt get in if i wanted... but i will take cold showers here until i get a new house as long as i have to before i let someone come inside... this just a last chance attempt to get the gas back on... but i may just be out that money cause i owed it to them so i cant get a refund and nothing to show for it...

any other ideas..?

well that's just how my days going lol i will get a grow update after i figure this out....

everyone remember to pay your bills on time, don't be like me


add: or i may just skip the whole in person attempt... they are supposed to call me and give me a 30min heads up... that was a few hours ago, so i may just tell the guy that i couldn't stay that long and had to leave and that everything inside is shut off and i will light my pilot when i am back and if he could still turn my gas on and i left him $50 in the mailbox...

 

[GMax]

ok so I deserve my academy award for getting my hot water back on without any problems I was really worried there for a sec, but my plan worked without a hitch.. the guy was really friendly also so that helped...


so now it is back to work....

harvest time is always really busy and I have normal chores added on top of that... all the bud I took down the other day ended up weighing 123.2g and I sold the qp as a whole and kept the other grams for personal.... then I cut down two more full rows and letting them dry and I will trim them later...

I have been too busy to get these transplanted... and they are getting very big.....







my old room is completely empty, so I got all the systems cleaned out and I am gonna use those clones to fill up 5-6 of them... gonna transplant them today or tomorrow at the latest...

also the clones that got messed up from a leaky rez turned around with just a couple more days in the cloner....




all of them ended up rooting really well except for one that didn't root at all and one that rooted really shitty (top right corner of pic)... so now I wont have to rush to take more clones, these clones will be the next WW round like originally planned...sometimes what doesn't kill them makes them stronger !!! gonna transplant these today or tomorrow at the latest also....

I still have about 60% of the WW still up and yet to harvest... but I will need to have it all taken down and system cleaned out within a week, because that's when the next round will be ready for transplant...

this time I am gonna try something different and supercrop all my clonelets a few days before transplant so I have some bushier plants on the WW... also need to remember to do even more defol and sucker removal this time to increase yields even more....

that's it for now... thanks everyone

 

[5th]

Clones to gasmen n' everything inbetween eh? Somebody's having a good day.
Glad to hear everythings back on track.

 

[GMax]

well the day definitely made a turn around... I went from thinking I may go to jail for not paying my gas bill or never being able to take a warm bath there, to back to regularly scheduled programming and fun in the shower with my gf later

 

[GMax]

I have been busy as hell but I managed to snap a single pic before my camera died the other day...





I still have about 50% of the old WW up, but I will be cutting the rest down tonight... will be back with a real update and final numbers when I grab some batteries...

sorry that's it for now

i may make bubble hash if i can find the time...

as far as the supercropped clones, the idea is good, but i wanted to test it on a few plants instead of all of them just in case so i cropped the best ones upon transplant and letting the others catch up a little before topping and then i never got around to it... so now i have the untopped ones outstretching the cropped ones and they are getting towered over and blocking some light... next time i either need to top all of them or none at all.. i am gonna put all the topped ones in a single row in the WW and see how they work out... but if i decide i like it then next time i am just gonna top them all upon transplant, i am not sure whether i should give them any extra time in veg if i top them.. those clones go into the WW in the morning.. i will have pics then...


the other WW has been giving me nothing but trouble these last two days... the last crop went pretty much perfectly throughout the whole crop without any problems and this one was running smoothly also until two days ago... i have two pieces of tubing attached with a straight barb to reach from pump to manifold... the tubing came apart at the barb and all the rez water was pumped out :/... no big deal i needed to change the rez and begin flushing anyways lol... so i fill her back up... then she comes apart again where the tubing attaches to the manifold and drains the water again... so i fill it back up once more.. and then the icing on the cake, my main 150g RO rez has a vertical open-ended peice of tubing ran to the top and taped down (almost like an indicator tube on a Waterfarm just not see through, this allows airflow so water flows better through the tubes) and it came loose and drained the 150g rez also....fuck... so i have flooded my basement 3 times in the last 2 days... I really need to just invest in some pipe clamps for all joints, a cheap easy and permanent fix, cause little things like that can become big issues if left unchecked.. and i plan on moving back out of my grow again soon

fortunately there was no damage or drooping of the plants... in fact i am about to rethink my spraying times because i was going to clean out the other WW of the old plants and roots and i shut off the pump at about 9pm, and then the next day at noon i remove the plants and the roots are still soaked....

i think i need to increase the times between sprays as the plants become more established... i think of the roots like hair; the shorter your hair, the quicker it dries... people with long hair take longer to air dry.. so obviously big masses of roots will take longer to dry than small ones ... and the high oxygen rates is what gives aeroponics its explosive growth... i love how the experimenting never ends...

just my thought process... havent done that in a while


the last of the recent WW crop will be dry tom then i will be able to give yall final numbers... the minor heat problem didnt seem to affect the growth or the yeild it seems, but i did notice that the plants seem to take about 5 days longer than usual to flower, so i need to have it under control by next summer

i will have a real update tom.. its been a while... thanks everybody

 

[GMax]

ok i finally get some pictures up, they are couple days old though... the WW close to harvest is dwindling and flushing, more leaves were removed after taking the pictures... and the other WW is on day 5 or so now and not due for a rez change for a few days.... i changed all the rezs in my old room the same day i took these pics... all that i need to do is take another batch of clones ASAP...

unfortunately the last harvest went so fast that i didnt even get a chance to figure out how much it actually yeilded (I kept a running total and then quickly lost track lol)... I am sure everyone was looking forward to that and i wanted to know as well to see how good it did in the summer, which is now pretty much over....

I am gonna take these crop to day 55 ( 5 days from TODAY) and harvest some of it, then let the rest go to 60 or so and take down the rest and i promise this time i will do a proper weigh-in....


here are the pics.. my bad they are not very clear i think i need a new camera ASAP....

these were on day 3 when these pics were taken... some of these have slighlty withered leaves because i transplanted during lights on and it took me about 45min to hour... i know from experience that it wont really hurt them, they will actually come back stronger... "what doesnt kill ya.."

it was good i found this out though because i would like to experiment with the spraying times because i strongly believe that it will take my yeilds to the next level... but to really do what i want i would need a cycle timer that has SEPERATE day and night schedules, possibly two of them ... like 45 sec ON 20min OFF DAY and 45 sec ON 3hr OFF NIGHT for example ... obviously 45min to hour is a little too long for clones on transplant day... if anyone know of a timer like this let me know...

basically i need to spray them, let all that water evaporate so they getting pure oxygen and then spray them again slightly before they crave more water.. and the more developed and massive the roots get, the longer this will take..

anyways..




and the other WW....












alright thats all.... I am gonna start updating more regularly again as well.. i have been busy these last few weeks

[GMax]

thanks bro but that timer can only do daytime, nighttime or 24hr operation also.. the one i have now can do that as well, but i always use the 24hr operation...

what i want is one that can have seperate for day and night... i wanna water them more frequently during lights on, but longer between cycles than i am currently, and less at night... in fact, i think i only need to hit them 2-3 times during lights out... cause we had a mass power outage last year and i seen with my own eyes plants of various stages and age go almost 8hrs without any water and you couldnt tell anything was wrong.. no droopiness or nothing..

when i started aero i went off of the guideline of 1min ON and 4-5min OFF and now i am at like 20sec/9min

unfortunately i dont think they sell or even make timers like what i am looking for


i have some more pics up ASAP, probably tonight.. havent looked at them in a few days and i want to check on them and do some screen training and sucker removal to the other WW.. and i am about to take down at least some of the WW in the next few days... today day 53 for them...
