Perpetual flow, let's blazeoneup and grow!

blazeoneup · Dec 26, 2019

Hello Icmag, I'm back with another perpetual grow show. It's been a while, life threw me some curve balls and I had to lay low. Alas that time has ended and the fear associated with it no longer holding me back.

I'm going to run a 4'x8' bloom room and a small veg/mom box to keep things moving. I'm just getting started and I got plenty of genetics to play with. I have a couple mom plants ready for cuts and I just popped some beans.

I'm still finishing the build out, few odds and ends left to finish and I'll be up and running. It's a personal use operation.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. I hope you will join me in this adventure. Until Next time be safe and take care! :tiphat:

Glad to hear you are back. I’ve watched many of your grows and excited to watch another.

Pulling up a chair and getting the notebook out. I’m setting up something similar but yours will blow mine away.

Looking forward to seeing this round!

Thanks for checking in, Only blowing were gonna do here is blow these trees up together and log some artisan flowers. No competition here... were all in it to blaze the dank!

The flower box is 4'x8' and framed up sheathed with 1/2" osb. I built the base with DRIcore osb, it has a rubber membrane underneath to keep it from contacting the concrete floor. The interior and exterior walls are sheathed with 1" insulation board installed everywhere but the door. I still have to insulate the door and I have to install a 4" damper for the intake and a 4" fan and scrubber on the exhaust. I also have to install the c02 lines and get the tank and regulator setup.

The plan is sealed room with co2 enrichment.I have a 5000 btu window unit installed for the flower box with an autopilot thermostat. I will have an intake on damper and exhaust with a scrubber but they will only be used for lights off to vent the room and remove humid air. During lights on the fan and scrubber will be inactive and the autopilot & air conditioner plus the co2 tank and regulator on a Titan short cycle timer will keep the environment in check.

For veg and moms I have a small box built, It's a 3'x2'x4' box with a small section for cloning at the top. Nothing special there but it will be enough to keep 4 active moms and 4 plants in veg and ready to feed the flower.

I still have to build a dry box and I also have to build a nutrient storage shelf. It will all come together rather quickly just waiting on a couple things to arrive

Getting in early on this ride! :woohoo:

Tomorrow the rest of my equipment and miscellaneous orders will arrive. Then I can finalize the setup and be ready to rock.

I popped some beans and took some cuts.

CSI Humboldt

Urkle s1
Babu (Katsu Bubba x Bubba)
Old Family Purple (Triangle Kush x Urkle)

I am attempting currently to germ some beans that are probably 10 years old or about. A fellow Icmagger named PureKnowledge is the breeder if memory serves me correctly. If they pop i'll have ECSB (East Coast Sour Diesel x Sour Bubble). I just started soaking them so i'll find out if there is any life in them soon enough.

Clones currently rooting

Wifi
MotorBreath

You may laugh at my current cloning method. I just use cups with my standard medium and I use a mason jar as the dome. The cups are perfect size so the lid of the jar just fits it perfectly tight and secure. It's pretty good for me no need for domes or extra electric with a hydro cloning method. Plus it keeps each plant isolated which helps if you have issues it wont spread. Until next time be safe and take care!

Got the room finished, Now all that's left is growing. Waiting for seeds to sprout and clones to root.

GOT_BUD? · Dec 29, 2019

Oh hell yeah.

In!

This has all the makings of an epic grow. Count me in.

blazeoneup · Dec 30, 2019

I popped a seedsman blueberry, I ran one before it wasn't what I look for in a blueberry but it was solid all around plant. So I am going to give another one a run and see how it goes.

First attempt to pop some of the 10+ year old ECSB seeds ended with a failure. I got one to start to open up but that's where it ended. They were poorly stored so won't shock me if I get 0% germ ratios still worth the shot.

This attempt I did a 5 minute pre soak in a light bleach solution.

I put a lot of time and effort into my grows, so I appreciate the kind words and hope you enjoy!

Fitzera · Dec 30, 2019

I'll be watching that blueberry, I have quite a few that I havent popped yet. I always have this feeling that seedsman genetics are lower end, but then I've been happily surprised on more than one occasion. Good luck!

anoydas 666 · Dec 30, 2019

watching on should be a good one.,luck.

Ibechillin · Dec 30, 2019

Welcome back blazeoneup, when I researched into sprouting old seeds the best results I found people were having seemed to be sprouting them in worm castings.

Yeah as I said above it wasn't what I was looking for in terms of blueberry but it was reasonable enough and a added flavor. Never know unless you try. Thanks for stopping by.

Thank you

I have another 8 beans left, I soaked some in a light bleach solution earlier, If I don't get any results with those I'll give the castings a shot. Happy to be back and logging another grow. Thanks for dropping in. :dance013:

Thanks Mack, Glad to have you here.

Started rebuilding my scrog screens today, They are just perfectly sized for the space however too perfect because they were just the right size making them touch entirely which is to much I need to be able to move plants in and out of the grow room as needed to train and water, I made the door wide intentionally so I can grab the front 2 plants in the center out and then I can access the rest of the plants without issues.

So unfortunately my screens needed a little wiggle room, so I am resizing them removing a little off each screen so when they are in place I still have a little bit of space between them so I can move them.

I should have roots in the next week and get the first round moving along. Happy New Year Everybody it's 2020, Let's get everything we want out of this year! Until next time be safe and take care....

Thanks for joining in GMT hope all is well in your world.

Finished the screens, Such a hassle to take 1" off each screen. Problem is I need the Tee for the stake in the center so couldn't just take 1" off a side and put it back together had to take 1/2" off both sides. :rasta:

It's just about ready!

Perpetual flow, let's blazeoneup and grow!
