midwest growers unite

[1TWISTEDTRUCKER]

I probably will post up a thread when I get things going.
It is going to be after the first of the year B4 I get things in order.

I have been unemployed, going to school to be an Electrician(wasted 43 wks)

I started a new job as an electricians apprentice last Friday, so I will be able to spend the $300 on the flip flop I need to keep away from ant 12/12 spikes to raise eyes.

Came into a little money last month, and bought a new can50 new nutes, air pump, and diffusers, uniseals, PVC. Still need a new bulb, and the flip. Of course their will be a few things that I have overlooked.(all ways are)

Peace; 1TT

Yup, just a mogul socket to a junction box. Nothing fancy, probably cost me $10.

I'll second that, nice looking tent grow. Is that single strain?

I actually grow in a cab I built, I can see how it looks like a tent though. It's 10 x 4 x 6.5, and is divided into two 4x4 flower cabs and a 2x4 veg cab.

In the pictures I posted, the one further in flowering is a single strain, but 2 phenotypes - Karma's Anonymous (Unknown Lady x Biker Kush) This is the cab I run my clones in. I'll be installing a 2nd tier this week when I harvest, hoping to run ~32 budsicles around my light.

In the other picture, clockwise from the right of the duct intake... Goji Og, Shiva 99 (c99 dom), Blue Amnesia, and then 5x Cheesy Rider. In this cab, I do my seed runs and select keepers for the clone runs.

hope all you brothers in arms are able to keep your girls cozy through these cold ass times... Im down to 70 at night and 74 in day.. should be ok once ole man winter lets up , then back to productive levels..(70 and 74 with my heat availability for the room at 90% production)
Wish I was flowerin some purps right now.. lol
My best temp... -18 with a -32 wind chill...
whats yours???/

 

[MassaCheif]

Totally jealous of your temps! I can manage a 70-72 lights on....but once the lights go off......38-42f

Bout -40 last night with the wind chill. Once this bitter cold lets up, lights off temps stay around 60-65

Peace; 1TT

the tropical front predicted for this weekend can come through at anytime

 

[Bababooey]

Coldest temps in 20 years. Now i know how canadiens feel.
Anyone have to use an engine warmer for their car? That electric blanket thing that keeps it warm? I didnt, but i dont think i had to start my car in -40 temps. And even then it took a couple seconds to weakly crank over...

cold room temps could be remedied with an electric space heater with a programmable thermostat. not the cheapest space heater, probably a decent progammable one is 40-50 bucks at a big box store, assuming they werent all sold out during this freeze.

That's a nice run of strains you have, Massa. Which one is your favorite?
Cab looks well made too, straight lines, clean. You change the plastic often, or just rub it down between runs with disinfectant?

Yes, your budsicles are like a vertical sea of green. Each plant looks like 1-2 ozs dry, depending on how dense they dry? Keeping them short also means you dont have to stake them as much?

 

[abirdintheair]

germin up a storm... angeldust, instant karma f2s, c99 x sour purple kush and more...

 

[Bababooey]

Those all sound good, Abita. Are those your beans or some breeder's?

 

[abirdintheair]
