I have entered all of the data into the past posts up to day 35 of flower so far. They have been edited into the posts. I will finish entering the rest of the data as soon as I possibly can. If anyone is confused or has any questions, please feel free to ask here or you can PM me.
awesome thread, really fun to see it in a fast pace like this. i have thought about doing it the same too, but seldom was patient enough to wait till the grow was finished to start posting, lol.
yeah man the DSD you are running looks fine indeed. it would be a great to try some at the 420.
it's funny reading your harvesting system, specially cutting the branches off the plant to leave a hook to hang them by, did that on many occasions when i was doing bigger plants or hanging extra big colas that i didnt trust to the drying net.
anyway it's really great to see you still doing what you love.

I'm really glad that you are enjoying the thread and data. To be honest about: "cutting the branches off the plant to leave a hook to hang them by", I never thought of that and Snypette figured that one out. I used to use so many close pins. I've been harvesting since 1993 and I never even considered that. It blew my mind when she came up with that idea. Snypette is a smart women and I'm lucky to be with her. Because of how much Snypette harvests these days, she has become a better trimmer than me and she teaches people her trimming knowledge in person. When people work with me in person I am really hard to deal with because I take it very seriously. I was very hard on Snypette when I taught Snypette how to trim 6.5 years ago. All the harvesting that you see in this thread was done by Snypette and I didn't do any of it at all so I can't take credit for that.
big kudos @ Snypette, i know that harvesting ain't all that much fun, specially when it goes into days and days of trimming. you guys are lucky to make such a good team.
you been popping any beans recently or running any new genetics? did you catch the whole cookie hype?

I ended up moving locations and changing my lifestyle for the better. I still go back to the city which I am at now but I have a beautiful farm on some crazy beautiful land. Because of this, it's been a lot of work so I haven't popped too many seeds. I was working with Dutchgrowns Withches Weed which was pretty amazing and I was also working with OJD's Lem Chem which I also found a pretty amazing pheno. I had an African Sativa also that made amazing oil and I crossed her to my Sour Diesel IBL for future use. There is something that I'm going to be working with after the summer ends that I'm going to be calling "Mass Electric". It is the best cannabis that i've ever smoked in my life and I first smoked her in 1998. The true lineage of the genetics are, [(Original Haze x NL5) x (Skunk1 x Columbian Gold)] x Silver Pearl. The columbian in the lineage dates back to 1973 and the rest is pre 1995. The specific pheno that is "Mass Electric" shows a thailand structure to the bud. The high is all up and has no ceiling. In the back of your head you can feel so much pressure against your brain and eyes and the high lasts a long time. If all goes right, this is what I would really enter at the 420 but I would also bring my ChemDD for fun. These wouldn't exist if it wasn't for "The Greek", "Ben Dronkers" and "Carlos". It took me many years for me to get the stock in my hands and to this day I am the only one who has it. I didn't catch the whole Cookie hype at all but it does seem really interesting and I can't wait to try a good version of it.big kudos @ Snypette, i know that harvesting ain't all that much fun, specially when it goes into days and days of trimming. you guys are lucky to make such a good team.

truecannabliss brought some cookies to the 420, got a nice nug off him and was really impressed. very unique taste. very good effect too. trouble is you really have to watch out for broad mites nowadays if you get clones from outside your own garden.
This is the updated version of my RDWC system. I will have a tutorial finished in the month of August. It will be listed in my signature. You can build this system for roughly $500 and that includes your pumps. The only thing it doesn't include is the heavy duty tomato cages. Stay tuned to, "Snype's RDWC Turorial!" in my signature....
The only problem with building my system is that I had to get the neoprene washers that join the buckets to the PVC fittings manufactured. I got thousands of them made. I am hoping that I can send them to seedbay for free and that seedbay can sell them on the server fund and use the money as a donation to ICMAG. This is something that we have to see if they are interested in doing. If that doesn't work then I will have to find a store to give them too so you guys can get them. We will see what happens.

is there a way to make a rdwc donut for vertical?
Yes! I do have a design that is 2 "L" shaped systems that forms a square for bare bulb vertical. It's never been tested but in theory it works. I will have to go through my notebook in one of my boxes today for you and see the exact dimensions and let you know more about it.
Looking forward to the tutorial.
i was following your last one when it got cut off.
feels like xmas morning

That makes me really happy! You guys are really going to like this system and love the cheap cost of building it! I can guarantee you that it will be better than any RDWC system on the market that has growth rates up to 55" and I will explain why in the tutorial. I should have the full tutorial up by Friday August 2nd. It's almost done but i just have to take some more pictures of parts and installation. Thank you for your interest!
hell yea.......how plants does this system hold....? i run 600 watt bulbs....
The closest that you can put the buckets is 16" on center. I don't use 600's so you probably know best how far away each bucket should be to the bulb. Picture 2 "L" shaped systems:
A B B B
A....C B
A C....B
A A A B
A's are system 1 and B's are system 2. The C's are the controller buckets. System A only connects to system A and system B only connects to system B. I would assume that in Vert that you would take out the 4 buckets in the corners. Don't pay attention to the dots. They are there because IC is changing the letters around.
hmmmmmm.gonna have to look into this.
do u get good flavor and smell from ur strains in rdwc?
also what do u think about uc?

I get more flavor than most people that i know who grow in soil. Hydro has a bad rep because most growers think you have to feed up to 2000 PPM and I only feed 700-900 PPM for 50" plants. If you smoked my bud, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Getting quality meds in hydro is pretty easy once you know a few things and have the right genetics. Just a small bag of my ChemDD in my pocket smells up the whole Red Line train car.
I got a stack of UC's sitting in my closet collecting dust. I think they are garbage.
