Great News Across the Board!

Great News Across the Board!

First off - The work needed for the house will hopefully be done by a friendly contractor - we just shared some bowls yesterday :)
Landlord has the proposals and upon approval - I can finally put up the veg tent.

The friendly contractor would be happy to do my ventilation work for the attic exhaust - we also might rip up the carpet and seal the floor and professionally seal the door/doorway for well almost a sealed room if I wanted to put up a mini split. I'll be discussing the installation of one of those - but honestly for 5x5 thats over kill imo. Is using Co2 only for sealed rooms? I feel like it would be wasted

I switched to 12/12 on the 9th. Today will be technically day 4 :)

Few pics from the other day.

So yeah :dance013: everythin's GROOVY

I saved some cuttings of the Night Terror OG Girl - seeing how sexy Hammerheads girl turned out to be, I figured I'd like to be able to hold onto that plant.

That solo clone - well I forgot aabout it too lol! Oh well - I had to learn not to be attached to the plants but it came through the stretch of time I have been waiting to ensure safety of my grow first. So now that I'm flowering I am excited and have been back to normal gardening methods and into a good routine - missed it.

Heres what went down.

I GUTTED the room. Cleaned EVERYTHING. We are talking the cables for the lights even and everything got sterilized. Floor - walls - tables - trays - equipment - floor covering - lights - got it all.

The Carbon Filter/Fan have been adjusted to better positioning for maintaining the seal between them. I also re-taped that - whats the best way to attach filters to fans? I think I'm going to cut a 6 inch piece of duct so I can be sure I clamp shit down tight.

Switched both bulbs to HPS. Both Ballasts Running at 100%.

First Feed on the 9th.

Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur
AN Bud Ignitor(finished remaining supply, more coming)
AN Bud Factor X(finished remaining supply, not using this again)
AN Bud Candy
AN Rhino Skin
AN Sensi Cal/MG(grow :shucks: Bloom on the way)
SNS Systematic Pest Control(last time)
SuperThrive 4 drops(only time)

8 Gallons made - 1000-1120 ppms 5.6pH

In their "morning" they get fed Connoisseur at 900ppms.

Sundays, every new week - Hygrozyme / Water Flush.
Base + Additives next day.

Right now I need to probably get a net up - but that won't happen this grow - and its too late for the cage. I plan on only flowering one tray after these two are done so that I can set up the next one into a scrog and grow a few clones I want into the right size and then into the screen for flowering.

Moving along folks. This thread is about to pic up BIG TIME!

I got a new camera - well I realized my super sexy tablet has a really good camera on it and soon after some practice I'll get good shots.

Just need to redo the door intake asap.

New fan going up soon - I wasn't sure where to put it - but think I found the best spot - above the door. Just gotta see if it fits now lol

New food coming and the rest of the equipment for the closet/grow tent.

Hopefully everyone else is keen on getting this place done and I won't have to wait much longer for these things to take place!

Can't wait to be BUSY with this grow!

Anyone have a 6 inch carbon filter recommendation - I want to get a new one - even tho the one I have up is working perfectly - I'd like to get a new filter with the new duct - Thermoflo 2000SR

Cant wait to see this in a couple weeks - filled with fragrant flowers. How have your temps been lately? Any change with the bulb switch and full ballast power?

Pic 1 is black water OG #2 - lolipoped the shit out of this plant and took off the bigger fan leaves. We'll see what happens. Kinda practicing/ learning lollipopping / blooming onset training.

Pics 2-4 are Cush OG Dunno which plant - I got 11 of those fucking ****s.

ONE OG KUSH MALE - YAY!!! More room for girls! :)
The Trifoliate reverted back to a regular growth pattern at the very top and all side shoots are regular growth. But stoked I have a nice OG Kush girl :)

Pic 5 is of the random - shes in the middle left looking like a Christmas tree haha! She is so short/stacked that the fan leaves stole all the light. I yanked em and we'll see what happens! Oh yeah it turned out to be a girl!

Pic 6/7 are of the Night Terror Girl - shes already throwing out lots of trichs and I lollipopped her like everyone else so she should have some floppers with time :)

Rest of hte pics are the entrance pictures.

I lollipopped everyone - even the all natural plant because that thing was going to be a trimming nightmare.

We'll see how they take it.

The plants are happy tho - now that they get to eat every day and bask in the proper light amounts.

Unfortunately both ballasts and lights in the room are causing severe heat issues. Last night 93F was the average temp for a good 4 hours.

Tonight I'll try to be proactive because yesterday I wasn't around for when lights kicked on to set the A/C to 66F lol.

I think the problem is my intake and the internal air flower in the closet.

FOR SURE the intake needs to double up. I'm also going ot install my booster fan to see if it helps out move the heat.

The problem is I need that attic exhaust. The heat is recirculating in to the room the A/C is cooling off and theres mass temp differences. The heat is near the ceiling while its cold on the floor.

Lots of work to do.

Stay high people - much love and good vibes to all :tiphat:

I could be wrong but don't they say that the intake should be larger if not double the size of the exhaust?

Hope the heat issues get in check, the girls look pretty happy regardless!

Hey guys and Thanks!

Heat is in control with the A/C on full blast - 24/7 haha

The vent is small because of the first grow and I haven't upgraded it yet because I knew I wouldn't need it till I started to flower and sparked both lights.

I'll be doing the work Sunday morning got everything for it.

Also the Booster fan is making a huge difference.

Been monitoring hte exhaust heat - The bad day it was 100F Yesterday 90ish - but not over 93F.

The room swings around from 77-82 now. Intake will probably level that off to the norms temps 70-75 which is where I want the grow to be.

Wallmount fan will probably make all the difference.

I'll have some HPS free pics after the intake is redone. Ohh I might redo the weather stripping this weekend too

If only I wasn't so drained from dayum work...

Nice job! They'll be plenty happy at 82 until whenever you get that intake retooled.

Haha! Im going to upgrade my exhaust a year ago.

OG Kush

OG Kush

Weak genetics I think - not popping any more after those seedlings are finished.

The tri foliate will have some lower bud structures in the triangle formation but the new growth from 12/12 switch has reverted back to normal growth patterns.

All the OG kush turned out female. - zero nanners for now.

Skeptical but I'll be vigilant - lets see what fucking with nature has in store for me :smoke:

As you can see I careless about these plants - they get the same care - food - everything - but i don't really take pics of them - nothing special

last pic has the 6 seedlings mixed in there.

The Four Musketeers

The random is a girl - lol so its sticking around. I raped her of fan leaves - to see what would happen and let the lower 3 branches get fair light. Shes back at it again - such a different plant from the OGs.

The Vintage has sprung to life! its not as big as the others - but its growing at the same rate to almost the same rate - its not like the yumbolt - that shit is taking off!

Jack33 is doing good and is almost as big as the yumbolt - old pic

Yumbolt is doing gooood! Its huge vs the others!

Everyone is on 12/12 but being vegged. I was using just base - but I see they could go for more nitrogen :D 1200 ppms away!!!!

entrance shots up first

:tiphat: thats all for today folks :wave:

Mmmmmm sausages!


Plants look good dude.. lucky you with all the females.;)

Hey Dude! Thanks for stopping by!

Im flabbergasted by the results myself - I know you want to keep good humidity 40-60% and temps in the low 70s - 68-75 to promote the plant to swing towards female - but I find it fishy all 11 plants are female - Something is going on here and I need to find out what - because hey - maybe now they look like whores - but later turn out to be cross dressers lol.

Coffee weed shouldn't be too hard to come across, now its just a matter of finding an egg weed. 3-way open pollination and... voila! Breakfast Blend.
