Needed to increase humidity in my veg room, and check this out - found it in the attic of my house, from 1963 - the thing is older than me! Still works, though!

Crazy LOL. Should work, as long as it don't burn your house down. Good shit, I like finding old stuff I can use, makes me feel better about being a pack rat.

See honey I knew we should hold on to that old clothes press. Let's make some hash.. Yeee-haw!!

lol... It really works well, although I have to fill it twice a day. These days they don't make much that'll still be working good 50 years from now.

Cool find, Doe. I love working antiques (like me :lol: ).

It's probably not going to help all that much in all reality tho. I used to run a humidifier in veg and when it died I did not replace it and I have not seen any ill effects from not having it. I veg and bloom at ambient humidity ~ 30%. Filling the damn thing twice a day gets to be a pain as well. Just my 2 cents. ;)

lol...Seriously, I probably wouldn't bother with it, but without it, my humidity in that room is down to below 20% (lowest my hygrometer reads, all it said was LO). With it, it's back up to around 35%. That's gotta be better for them!

The SLH sprouted, and is now the first hempy experiment! Question: At what age does one begin to feed the hempy plant? It isn't three weeks like in soil, is it?

I can see new growth and development even since Thursday. All my sprouts are doing well. Got a pic of my baby TW, the SLH sprout in it's hempy home, and a group shot of all the babies together.

Didn't take a pic of the clones, but they have gotten a little taller, since Thursday.

Did a little S&M with the tall girl - got a much more even canopy. Might tighten her down just a little more, still. The new buds are now big enough, you can see them in the shot of the top of the plants. Yay! Best I've done in two weeks flowering, though I'm sure the lights are to thank for it.:mrgreen:

Feed hempys at about 10-14 days. There is no nutrient at all in that perlite so it's nothing like soil. Hempys are slow till the tap root hits the bottom res and it does not wick really well so when you do water it for the first couple weeks try to water around the stem itself.

lol...I have a hubby, but he doesn't belong to the forum - he's internet shy. If you've seen a lot of my posts though, I'm not suprised you made that assumption. I'm a bowhunter, I fish, I grow, and I appreciate the occasional pair of breasts or heart-shaped ass. And I am 100% woman.:bigjoint:
