Pappy, that sounds expensive for Romex although admittedly I don't know what size you're getting.

Dans, I definitely can recommend Canna Start for the seedlings. I got some to try and had the best seedling growth ever. Just don't forget the calmag like I did the first time I used it.

yup gottem both prepped & ready for use . how soon do you start feeding them with it . i've just been giving them KLN , protekt & calmag as a foliar .
I wanted to start using the boost on this round of flower .... but i just can't afford the 550 for a 5l right now. so after xmas i'll grab it . hell , my last couple rounds without it were no slouch so i'll be fine till then .

The seeds i dropped in paper towels yesterday Have cracked the shells & started to show root , so tomorrow i'll put them in the flat with the S1's . get them going :)

first time using a flat filled with coco & it seems to be working pretty good . will make transplanting a little easier than the cups .... they won't need to stay in as long .

That's what I was doing . I was told different in another thread.
Dammnnn im going through ICMAG withdrawls like a mofo. I got super duper busy for 2 days, couldn't really get to the computer, and now I prolly have a hundred pagers to catch up with on my favorite couple threads.

Third and DAn- Good call on the electrical supply house. There's 8 of them within 10 miles of me. I found the romex for $1.37 a foot, and i only looked one place so far. And they sell to the general public too. Sweet.


Like i said, i got some catching up to do later, when i get a chance. Still pretty busy though. Harvest time for my closet and my seeded plants, seed popping time, some business-type stuff, getting the house in order for all the room switches, and I GOTTA make some more bubble hash and oil soon. Like real soon. Im about out of everything; bud, kief, oil, bubble.

And a couple more pics, just cause i think that oil is pretty ;]

pappy how u making hash oil?
Mornin All :coffee:

got alot of shit done last night finally !!! even got about a dozen cuts off the madness & culled the mom .... she was to tall & lanky by the time i got her cuz i only have space for Bonzai moms . so i'll start a new one of her from the cuts & keep it till shes harvested & tested .

seedlings are all looking great ..... its usually the 3 day mark when everything keels over & dies & i'm passed that now so ...... things are lookin up !!!! :biggrin:

i've got 3 glues left in veg ..... i think i'm going to put 2 of them in 3 1/2 gallon hempys for the 3rd table which needs to be filled by mid November . that'll give me a 30 day veg & i'll be able to tie them suckers down in prep for a net . really wish i had 4 ..... but next time :)
my seedlings died between 5-7 days. I found keeping coco a littler dryer in that time helped me threw it.

Third- dans told me the price was $2.50 a foot at home de(of)pot. so i thought 1.37 was good, but ill keep looking. That was just the first place i looked, Theres at least 7 other shops i can call.

I dip all cuts in Avid or Forbid(kills egg's). Then do 3 applications of Azamax 3 days apart. Then use it every 2 weeks until I flower them. I have been picking off leaves from all plants giving them a good inspection under the microscope so far 100% clean..

....
Then use a OMRI product like Azamax(.6 ml per g) for preventative measures. After 2 wweks all plants get a good soaking, Every 2 weeks they all get a good soaking until ther eready to flower. then give all plants that are being moved into flower a good fresh water spraying. I use those presure sprayers 1 for Avid or Forbid, 1 for Azamax and 1 for fresh clean water ...


So is that .6 ml per gal ratio(Azamax) for foliar spraying only? or is that the 'soil drench' ratio too? sorry buddy.



dan,just grab a 4 inch inline fan and screw the speed controller...

see,i told yah 2x6 inch exhaust and 1x6 inch intakenot much difference between an uninsulated garage and an attic in many ways...

I cant seem to get it straight. I know that I want Negative pressure. Meaning my air leaves quicker than it comes in. So I want 2 exhaust's, for every 1 intake?


Got the fan in ....
Dan, if you dont mind me asking, how much was that 6" inline you just installed?


pappy how u making hash oil?

I always used 91% Isopropyl Alcohol. But ive been wanting to order some grape spirits(98%) for awhile, just havent got to it yet. Thats what i would use ideally. The key is only soaking the buds/trim for 60 seconds. I use a mason jar to soak, then through a coffee filter into a pyrex dish. Once its completely evaporated, i scrape it up with a razor, and into a new mason jar. I keep a blow dryer handy to keep it easy to scrape. Also a small soldering torch to heat the razor helps.

$ 140 at the hydroshop .... coulda got it cheaper online , but didn't want to wait for it .
its a CAN S600 300cfm ... its not the HO version ..... but its good enough for intake . the HO version 380 cfm is $170 .

can fans are expensive ... but have a 5 year warrenty .

i prefer to cut the whole plant and hang it that way,not really possible with a screen that need to be useable right away...
yes,better flavor,keep in mind i live in the desert and leaving the plants intact slows the drying process down,otherwise it dries too quickly...

hmmm, ill have to give that a whirl. cant say ive ever tried it that way before, and where im at (i believe fairly close to you) as its rather warm and the humidity is almost non existent

I was gonna use those little inline duct fans from home dept. They're only $29 bux. I was hoping they would be good enough. HAs anybody ever you used those cheap duct fans?

You will not be happy. They're $29, and the fans used in these applications are $100+ -- there's a reason for that :tiphat:

Edit: Those are generally only used as booster fans, I reckon

keep looking , you can get it for about a buck & a quarter . whatever you figure as your final length of wire to be ..... before you buy it .... add another 10 foot . better to have to much than not enough !!!!
