Oh shit! you want opinions?!??!?

My first order of business is to say that to me it is obvious...

You have plants ready for flower...

You have room to flower them...

BY GOD MAN... FLOWER THEM...

So it will throw you off a little on your rotation.... you wil have some extra weed to smoke to help you figure out how to solve that one....

Cram as many as you have.... flower them... buds are worth their weight in gold....

WHY WOULD YOU NOT FLOWER THEM RIGHT AWAY? if they are ready...

but.. I have put out a few disclaimers around here.... maybe zi'll even make an avatar out if it...

I don't know what the fuck I am talking about.. it is all just a wild guess.....

The hieghts will VARY to much .. The remaining 6 will have been vegging for 2mths - so are going to require hieght to flower...The lights are already set for rotation perfectly.... hense the question : growth restricters, prune, ????? Or just be lazy and put them outside.....

well topping is always fun but outside is easy, i would prune em. they earned their spot on the team, no sense in benching them now so that come game day they're ridin' the fuckin pine when the scouts are in the crowd ruining their chances of ever being.........well i think you see where i'm going with this......lmfao im high

ROFL..... n1 bro I get what your saying.... but im pretty lazy when it comes to the plants........ I dont prune really... unless you call picking up the dead leaf, or taking cuttings pruning ?!
Anyways thanx for opinon....
Thats two for outside and a partial to pruning...:bigjoint:

Where are you? (Don't answer that....)

It's warm there? (you can answer this one...)

Take it outside and get a mosnter bush then.. but what about neighbors? will they see/smell it?

I'm thinking about doing perpetual hydro... I have the stuff for ebb and flow with a tray and lava for media. How could I adapt a tray for perpetual? Use containers to keep the roots individual with no media in the tray itself? Or should I try to adapt what I have for aero? I have most of the stuff for that too.

Any example links or whatever? Single grow room, single system, perpetual.

The easiest maintenance system with the simplest cleaning and least ph fluctuation is what I'm looking for, so I should probably dump the lava right? I think aero would be cleaner or maybe dwc.

cool

easy, just figure out your flowering time needs first (8,9 weeks)then divide the tray accordingly...4 even sections for 8 weeks of flower and 3 even sections for the 9 weeks ones....thats what i have. so my tables are set up for 3 week perpetual. scale it up or down to fit your needs.

god damned right.:bigjoint:

i say no. aero is awesome but e&f is dead ass lazy easy ...till harvest time.

als 2 week thread's 1st post kinda splains it all. you just adjust to size.

hands down flood tables.

i use hydroton but as long as its ph neutral wtf, go for it.

i would think the opposite, but i'm :dunce:

Cool, thanks.

I agree with what you're saying, I just thought aero or some other media free system might be easier to clean and cheaper to run.

I hate rockwool. I'll use it if I have too but damn, I still hate it.

Is there a way to ebb and flow perpetually without rockwool? I'd like to use an aero cloner, but then hows the survival rate if I take a bare rooted clone and stick it's little tender roots in sharp lava to transplant?

well, i think cleaning tubs is the same, and tables verses pvc tubing .....idk, but it takes me 2-3 minutes to clean my tables and they are always sparkling and i dont have algae or any type of pathoger issues.
I hate rockwool. I'll use it if I have too but damn, I still hate it.
mee too thats why i use hydroton only...no rw.....i used to but dropped it.

i think we lost each other some how. no rw....rw=:cuss:

aerocloners are awesome....i use mine to veg my rooted clones foe a week before i put them into flower. i use oldintheway's upside down rapid rooter/albfucts method....i cant clone in it to save my life but they sure are cool if you can work out the bugs. wich i did thanks to.....stinkbud......:wall: :eyesmoke::bigjoint: but then went to rapid rooters for the eazy aspect.

OM I agree with Bugs...

RWless ebb flow with individual pots is the way to go...

And i would guess the survival rate will be equivalent to the care with which you treat the roots on transplant...

Thanks DWR...

I haven't said much, but you would really like this harvest every two weeks thing man...

You have the know how and the set up already... just my opinion though...

Anyways... they are drying... and since I still have some from the last harvest (2 weeks ago I love it I love it I love it), I will probably not touch them until a good cure is set...

I love self sufficiency... :eyesmoke:

Cheers.... :bigjoint:
