hey doubletake you ever think about going with one big tent to house those lights? a 10x10 would be siiick. im thinking about switching my veg tent to my current 4x8 and then a 10x10 for flower. anyway the grow looks great, did you go over strains yet? or did I just skip that part?lol.

Yeah man I didn't think a 8x8 or 10x10 would fit but turns out it does so now that it's getting warm I'm thinking next month after harvest switch to a 8x8 and do two 1000s and 9 5 gallon dwc buckets 3 rows of 3

And I think I did first post or so it's
White widow max ( white widow x big bud) for the clones which are shorter ones and the ones that I took the pics of with the hps lighting off (also clones)

Then for the bigger ones with the huge leaves are purple mk ultra ( purple urkle x mk ultra) I got when I had a visit to Shasta county

Defenently next time I will be doing all seeds or all clones to keep everything uniform

I'm thinking 9 chem 4 feminized seeds in those dwc 5 gallon buckets will be some resin dripping monsters!! Haha

I just use rock wool and a little dome to keep the humidity up
I have a pretty good success rate at least in the past, it's been 3 or 4 months since I've cloned

I do want a turbo cloner or whatever though they look bad ass and the 160 one! Like Godamn! I could be cranking out soooo many every week probley be able to help people out by selling those too.
Just build your own "EZ-Cloner" for super cheap...I built one with 26 sites for about $35-$40. All you need is an 18 gallon tote with a lid (larger or smaller depending on preference), some PVC, a submersible pump, some EZ Clone sprayers, some 1 inch net pots, and some 1 inch neoprene inserts. You can get the net pots, sprayers, and neoprene inserts together on amazon for like $10-15, everything else you can get where ever you want. I haven't taken any clones yet but supposedly the "EZ Cloner" and DIY models have 100% success rate with plain tap water.

Oh hell yeah cool iv seen a lot of DIY ones on here and just never thought of trying one, I guess I should give it a try.how did you cut the holes in a 1 inch circle for the net pots?

Did u see I got the ac hooked up brought the temps down and a few pics bottom of page 2

Soooo last night I took one of those crappy 6 inch "booster fans" that only push 180cfm and put it as a intake for my 4x8 tent with 2 1ks, so the air exchange is faster and it's bringing that cool ac air in

So I thought that would help even a little more with the temps.

And added a extra oscillating box fan to push more air around too so I'm going back tonight I'll let you guys know how the high/low is looking.

Hey very nice temp range you have now man. The plants will deal with that np. Also, I wish I had the problem of building a DIY cloner lol! I've never needed more than like 20 so I just go right into plugs, takes maybe an hour.

Thanks man yeah I'm sure they will love it compared to how gosh darn hot it was before and then I did a couple other things last night ( added intake, and another oscillating fan) that should help even more.

Haha yeah man that's why I'm thinkng of just rockwool still because it takes me no more then a hr to make a tray of 50 and usually all root besides mabey like 5 or so.....

But if the DIY is really that cheap and easy I should get on getting one they do look pretty bad ass ha.

dude you got some massive OP up in here man, jesus. AMAZING job bro. Can't wait to see the harvest!!
Haha thanks man, I hope everything gets pretty fat in there. I just kinda got the temps in check so the yield might be affected some, we shall see though.

yeah stress affects them big time. I stressed mine a few times and bud size got affected. its all good though this is my first indoor grow using Air injection soil. I expected a few bugs and i got a few plus. first 2 plants i expect 4 oz dried but 2-2.5 oz smoke able size the rest goes with the trim so i can make hash.I expect the same from 2 other plants but my big BB is gonna blow the others away easy buds are getting way fat( 5-6 oz easy i bet). then the monster C99 should break a pound.

3.5-5 gallon air injection soil. I'll know exact yields when they are dry. If i wouldn't have had the fire they would be allot bigger in yield. a cooler basement and a rookie watched them for me. all in all its doing decent. I should have a scale saturday and they will be in paper bags for 2 days to finish the drying slower. maybe 4 days. then ill weigh them. I'm pretty good at guessing but cant wait to know for sure.

edit: 180 watt led /150 watt hps/600 watt hps.

Yeah it's always fun guesstimating haha but yeah for sure post what you ended up with, I'm thinking my big seed plants the purp mks are going to yield fatt there huge I'm like 6'2 and there taller then Waist high on me with big colas coming in.

I'm hoping like 2oz a piece off those

Then the clones might be less like 1 zip to 1.5 per plant on those, they were just so much smaller but seem like they will be ready maby a week sooner or so.

I'm noticing that the size of pot makes a diff. I might even make a custom pot out of fiberglass. i want too make deeper pots for auto's and wider ones for scrogs. I have a few months to design and make what i want.
