Yea, a bit different view out here. In the cabs I can see the top of the screen, here I'm looking up. I took a 3 foot dowel and screwed a cup hook in the end of it to hook the stems and pull them down so I can get a tie on them. Sometimes it feels like I am in a giant cabinet.

But, that is exactly correct mate. All greenhouses are giant cabinets if you max them out. Especially if there are width and height restrictions.

Sounds like you are finally getting enough lines and such in there to wind up trapped if you fall too. Thankfully they are not yo-yo's. :) I'm not sure you'd make a good marionette.

It has been working out better than I expected in those 10 gallon for you. Just keep an eye on them as they fill out for sure. And I cant wait to see a root ball or two. Really curious on a few of them how they developed in that soil.

Still watching of course. Just not blathering as much.

Thanks for keeping this topic lively too btw.

Hi psari, glad to see your still keepin an eye on things. Yes you got the picture, clamps, wires and ropes I too am curious as to the size and shape of the root balls. I will be sure and take pics for ya.

Dude, no way can I walk in there. I crawl along the bottom and have two places I can stand but when I do I'm surrounded by plants and cant see more then an inch in front of my face. I've already broken of a few lower branches doing that.

HAhaha, got such a funny image in my head of cruzer crawling around under his plants and getting lost. I love this site.

More then once I've had to look up at the beam to get my bearings when I was lookin for a branch.
There a few weeks into flower, I will lose a lot of the lower stuff now.

Speaking of losing plant material, we got our first casualty. Blue Dream in the pot. Spidermites.
She has had them for a while now, Growth stopped a few weeks ago but she was still feeding. I set off that fogger two weeks ago and it semed to kill the mites. Its been real hot the last few days so I watered a bit more but she wasnt using the water. It was collecting in the pan under the pot and just sitting there.











When I took a close look I saw all the spidermites.











I just let off another fogger a couple days ago but now I realize I didnt cover the vent on that side of the greenhouse and the thermostat must have turned on the fan so the blue dreams were in front and didnt kill the spidermites on them. I pulled the one in the pot out of the greenhouse and trimmed off a bunch of lower stuff on the other.












Now Casey Jones has much more elbow room.



Now its time to put the front pannels back on, seal it up good and set off another fogger. Tomorrow I will work on the head room. I decided I am going to remove the roof panels and use 1/2" PVC to make a small hoop roof for the low side.

I hear ya guys, just when you think your plants are going to show you some killer buds those dam mites suck the juice out of them. This was the first time I saw a plant actually stop using the water. All my other grows were hydro and I couldnt tell.

OK, I set off another fogger last night we will see how well that works. I need some room so the front roof panels are coming off. I will put bird netting over the plants and tie it down. Then I'm going with PVC and plastic to extend it temporally. Something like this,

Hey Cruzer I've been lurking for quite some time and after seeing what those little c**ts have done to 1 of your plants has compelled me to offer assistance, have you tried plant vitality plus? It's a foliar feed that kills mites it says on the bottle that it's organic other forums disagree but at the end of the day the stuff works i spayed my girls with it once and no more mites not even after a month and my girls never looked so good, fucking bonus, i think the plants absorb the stuff and the mites just don't like it one little bit it also states that you can spray and after 6 hrs it's fit for human consumption.

Did you ever get any of the foggers I recommended? The industrial ones with Attain as the main ingredient are great for flower(low residue) and will murder Pyrethrin immune mites. Or is it still just the Dr Doom?

Looks great!! At least you won't have to worry about the mold as bad.
I think its gonna work great. Going to aim fans at the ceiling to help stop condensation too.

Hey 3eyes, vitality plus huh? Cant say I have. I dont use foliar sprays much at all.
Works for you huh? I will take a look at it. Anything that helps kill those fuckers is a bonus. Thanks man.

Nope, just the Dr Doom. I thought I had it under control. Guess not. Those things multiply fast man. I see some on the other plants now thats why I set off another one but I havent been able to really seal the GH up. Extending the roof isnt gonna help either but im gonna do that tomorrow and I will be able to get a good look at the results of the last fogger. If I still see movement I will get the industrial stuff you recomended.
Heres a vid from yesterday

No way man, had no idea.
I'm flying by the seat of my pants on this one.

AWESOME!!

puts my greenhouse to shame :)
Thanks man, This is a lot more then I thought I was going to have. I think its the soil mix I used, that and the mild summer.
My guess is they stretched without the heat and had the nitrogen to fill out.
