I wasn't going to order it but my brother ended up coming up with a friend who I had no idea was coming till that morning, then we had the usual people over so I ended up ordering it. I don't regret it, it was an epic night of fights. I'm taking some pics and uploading some updates, I'll post them in a bit.

Here is an update on pretty much everything I have going on right now. I had room for one in my veg tent but I decided to move JH1 in there until it's healthy enough for me to take clones from. JH3 decided to flower a lot faster than I thought it would so I left it in there, I wanted to clone it but it looks too pretty, lol :D Both the JH1 and 3 tops seem to be doing fine after I transplanted them into soil.

Believe it or not (for those not up to date), Cole Train, Rocklock and SAK were all started at the same time and if you look at the veg tent video, you'll notice a huge difference in size, the Cole Train really took off.

Here are the clones, the tiny one's I removed from the bottom of JH3, I don't expect them to root but we'll see... There are signs of roots on the oldest one but nothing for sure yet:

The veg tent, Acapulco Gold and Sharksbreath have joined the party as well :D

The flower room, BMA is gone for good. That tall one (BMC) was grown exactly the same way as all the others, I don't know why it grew so tall??? I was thinking about topping it but it already started it's preflowers, I'm just gonna let it do it's thing:

Yea, they look very similar, they gotta be the same strain. I wonder if my budtender would recognize it? Next time I go I'll have to show him a picture

Thanks, I hope so! I decided to try out a little DIY C02 generator using sugar and yeast with a 2 liter bottle and a one liter with water being used as a filter. I'll post pics or video up in a few days, it's supposed to work for 2 to 3 weeks so we'll see.

I did try it a few days ago and it only worked for 2 days, my yeast to sugar ratio was too high but during that time, I did notice a huge pistil increase in both JH3 and BMC...I'm not sold yet though. My friend says he knows someone with 2 extra empty 20 gallon C02 tanks, if he can get his hands on them I'm going to see if I can set it up, I'll definitely need a controller for it.

What ratio did you use of sugar yeast and water? I want to try it, guess it's time to just give it a shot. I read a while back on it and almost tried it but decided no at the time.

Guess I should of ;-)

I messed up on the water amount but here is my best guess for a 2 liter bottle:

3 cups sugar
1.5 tsp yeast
4 cups warm water

After a few minutes you should see some bubbling and pressure will create in the bottle, use a hose to release it wherever you want inside your grow. Supposedly, the less yeast you use, the longer it will last but also the least amount of c02 that will be released. I'm going to mess with it over the next few weeks and see what happens. You can add sugar or yeast to see how it reacts and get an idea of how long a certain ratio will last.

That is basically how I ended up doing it without the fan at the end... I think it's pretty much all up to you how you decide to spread it inside your grow area, I think getting the right ratio of yeast to sugar is the tricky part

Indeed, no fan for me. I'm going to put holes in my 1/4'' tubing and put a stopper on the end, then run it around the base of my ladies.

I just poked tiny holes at the top of the one liter "filter" hoping that it builds pressure and forces it's way out and up instead of just dropping it over the plants... We'll see, hopefully my friend comes through with the c02 tanks he thinks he can get.

So my dumb ass realized that I've had one of my fans set to low inside my tent today. I set it to oscillate at the highest level and went to check on it a few hours later, my temps dropped from 88 F (usually hits 90 with the ballast set to super lumens) all the way down to 79 with super lumens. Unfortunately I ran out of time before I could really check if it had made that much of a difference or not. I left it alone for the night, if that thing can stay under 86 with the highest setting on the ballast during a hot day then it'll save me some money, I was going to pick up a 4" booster this weekend to help with circulation

EDIT: Scratch the saving me money part, it's gonna cost me a shit load in the long run on the electricity bill, lol :D

Yea the electric bill got me. ;-)


Hahahaha, that's a little funny! Better than dropping your fan onto your plants like I did this morning. My veg tent anyways thankfully.

I saw that post man, hope your plant recovers. I know that feeling all too well, I accidentally bent Delilah once so far I heard it crack, instant panic...

Ouch, just reading about that made my body shiver.

I think it will be ok, I got to go home earlier for a few hours cut only one leaf that died. Looked fine and dandy other than that.

Its funny cause I actually squeeze and bend my ladies till I hear the crack, in essence dropping a fan on your plant is just supercropping it unintentionally
