Thanks everyone, will pass your kind words on to the little lady.

Hey Gurn, I only mix what I'm going to use at the time but I'm glad you posted this warning.

Hey Slabhead, got a late start but things are coming together now. Miss my shade tree but have a pool now to keep cool.

hey hodge i got a question about your irragation system you have goin on there... is that just hooked up to your water spicket or do you have a big resevoir? just wondering because i was thinking about getting a 100gal drum that i could mix my nutes in and then have a submerged pump in there with tubes that run to each plant, in theory i would be feeding each plant the same amount every time i feed!

RD, I've got this system hooked to my well, no chemicals. I have used a feeder tank before but with the amount of plants you have I would just feed them by hand, gives you time to examine each plant on a regular basis.
If you decide to use a feeder tank, why not build a stand and use gravity?

ya your right on the gravity idea... the only reason i was thinking of doing the tank was so eliminate hand feeding, its such a long process and the weather is getting warmer and this humidity sucks... i was just thinking on how to make it easier for myself... but ya im definitly going to hook up some type of watering system i just need to design it...

the plants are lookin sexy by the way! and im with you on the growth spurts! i swear mine are growin like a half a foot a day as well! LOL! im lovin the growth spurts!

Wouldn't help me though, Dr has me on some drugs where I'm suppose to stay out of direct sun? Sucks but I'm still kicking...

Plants sre really loving this weather, mid 80s but were in for some 90s this weekend, fed the girls yesterday and will be soaking them today and tomorrow. While they are no way near where I was at this time last season, (09 monster attempt) I'm happy with all the work the wife and boys did to get it all done.

So wierd this season. We got a hell of a good start over here. At least the weather has picked up over in your neck of the woods. Things are looking good, we still got plenty of time for veg. Hows the grow going up at the camp Hodge? BTW your up early Hodge:mrgreen:

Son has most of the work done, needs 3 more girls to fill his quota. He's 19 and living alone for the first time, lol I always told the boys stories about Bigfoot while they were growing up. Hope I didn't traumatize him?
If I sleep in till 5 then I'm doing good, just wish I had the energy to go out and so something...
