I'd pull that runt, hehehe!

Nice one on the electrical. That's my weak spot, next upgrade will be a controller box.
Enjoy the holidaze! :xmasnut:

hey there fellas,

update to come this week. been busy doing the holiday dance for a couple weeks ;-) but im back at work now. things are rocking along! had some root binding issues, transplanted the moms & dads to 3g containers - which will be their final home.. prob wont use bigger than 3g for anything as to maximize the space. there is something like 15-17 cuts in the cloner ready for a transplant this week, then i can take another round of cuts from the moms & dads and get them rooting in the machine.

got some xmas grow room toys! realllly excited, got me a couple DWC buckets & an 8 site aero unit.. so i'll be dipping my toes into some water here real soon :tiphat: -- feel free to chime in whenever y'all see me doing something retarded with the hydro/aero! i'll need all the help i can get ;-)

alrighty, just give me a couple days to get my ducks in a row & i'll get a nice little 2012 update for everyone. ay dios

2012 Update

2012 Update

Tyga - hey there brother, welcome to the mag. you done real good slipping into that ma/ri/ct thread, the gentlemen in there consistently astound me with the quality they produce.

Maj - thanks for stumbling into my basement :tiphat: you do mighty fine work, spent quite some time in the past going over your threads. chairs waiting for ya brother :wave:



update time :blowbubbles:


weehw, where to start? there was a ton of work waiting for me and my partner this weekend, man oh man, brother i tell ya! so i guess i'll start with the work & then get onto the farming.

last time i gave any update on the actual basement, i think it was just for the framing going up. pretty much since that initial framing we haven't been able to get around to too much work down there. had to get my buddy over to wire us up 100+ amps :tiphat: , install the big basin sink in the basement, and do a few other plumbing things related to the living space of the house. finally, all the work was wrapped up last week & we were able to move full force onto the project.

a bit of the frame work

i got around to the 7x7 veg room this time; framed the wall, hung the door, & then handed her off to the partner for some sheets

drywall hung up, rolling out the B&W poly for the walls & ceiling

errr, shoulda had more pictures of the construction process but my dang ol' camera was running outa battery - so i had to choose the shots carefully!

anyways, once all the work was finally wrapped up in the basement we were able to move the moms, dads, and cuts downstairs. speaking of moms and dads.. we had a nice little surprise this time! about 80% of the original seeds popped are showing pre-flowers, so we gave them each a thorough look over, separated the males, then gave them 2 more thorough look overs (node by node) to make sure we got em all.

Out of the (4) F13-A11's that we had, 3 ended up being male (one of which had an absuuurdly thick stalk & stench, took cuts from him). the one lady we have stinks like the devils anus, so i think that makes up for it :tiphat: thanks HL

Out of the (8) pre98 Bubba Kush x Northern Lights #5/haze we had, i think we had somewhere around 4-5 confirmed females, and a couple still making up there minds :blowbubbles:

There are 3 confirmed skunk females, i think 1 still waiting to show. & the NL2xSkunk1 is female b/c it was feminized

here is a shot of the cloner all loaded up again, but this time with confirmed females of the moms. strain & seed number are listed on the tags.

Here is what the moms & dads looked like before we took that round of cuts & re-bondaged them. man it was a jungle in that bunkbed, some legitimate bushes i tell you what. the stalks are basically horizontal at soil level, we just keep stretching new leaders around the rim of the pots & across open space.. getting some killer cuts.

here is a shot of the NL2xSkunk1 - nothing else in the garden looks remotely close to this one! it has some seriously thin sativa-esque leaves, im real excited to see what she produces! *take note, everything in the garden looked like this one a few days ago, they were begging for a transplant but got some neglect for christmas instead ;-) but as you can see, everything is rocking away now - the yellowness lingering is coming from the moms/dads that got the transplant a couple days after the others.
picture.php



oh yeah, check out this crazy leaf from one of my F13xA11 males
picture.php


okay - time to do too much hash & space queen oil and start transplanting & moving the girls down :blowbubbles:
picture.php


finally got gen 1 of cuts transplanted, they had been in the machine for almost three weeks now! some of the roots were fucking snake skeletons, others had small nub (culled), others were now confirmed males (some culled)! so we only have like 7-9 gen 1 cuts running in the veg room now, transplanted right into 3g pots & running on Roots Organic until the soil mix is activated.

alrighty - feels good knocking out the majority of work that needed to be done, only a few smaller projects to get to now. had my buddy throw the g13xchem4, honey white, more p98bk x nl5, and the og skywalker into water today - hopefully they pop quick so we can get them into the seed starter tray & sprouting up for me this weekend!

hope you enjoyed the read, see ya round the boards.

That's a proper buildout!

You've basically got my ideal set up with that basement.

I've gotta find an electrician to befriend :D

the waiting is the hardest part. Your gonna have to veg for a while to fill those rooms out. Good things come to those who wait.

Didnt see it, Hope you are growing vertical, if not i suggest you do some investigation, youve got some time.

Yup, it is going to take a while to fill the rooms up, but that's the process. I could have easily thrown the original seed stock moms & dads into flower a couple weeks ago (they are going on 2 months) if all I wanted to do was fill the rooms out. That's no the name of the game here tho Dr. We are hunting for phenos, once the phenos we want are found then we'll be filling the rooms.

And yes, like a posted earlier, room 3 is going to be running vert
