In order to make a vertical light mover I think you would have to build your own rail and rollers. Because the ones on the market for horizontal have a flat rail with roller wheels, I think you would need more of a gear and teeth setup to pull the lights. I found out the a 3.5 mover at 6 rpm is only 5 watts. Now im getting some ideas...damn...ideas end up costing money...unless they make you money...hmmmm.

 

[Heads Up]

Jigfresh, you grow hydro yes? I would ph the water. I see you use 5.8 as your measurement. My tap water is over 8.0, I wouldn't want to water my plants for an extended period of time with that high a ph, in the long run I can't see how it would benefit the plants.

As for the light mover theory, I can see the merits of the idea, however, I just can't get my mind to wrap around the idea that one light will provide enough overall coverage to equal the output of two lights by using a mover. I think you would get better results with one light on a mover than one light stationary, but not two lights. That's my two cents on the matter. Hey if nothing else, whoever invents the light mover for vertical grows will make some money.

Edit, I've also read where the chlorine in tap water won't hurt your plants and is actually beneficial. I still leave mine sit out at least overnight opened.

I don't know how to post videos from youtube, here's the link. It's the urban grower speaking to this guy with a funny accent.

Thought I'd post a pic of one of my 'bag seeds' that was given to me by my budtender. His guess is that it is a Private Reserve but we won't know until we smoke it

Any guesses on how long before I should cut it? Since I have no idea what strain it is I have no idea when to cut it down, I'm a n00b and this is my first grow...

It's been 48 days since I switched her to 12/12, it grew almost like an autoflower which is odd because my collective doesn't carry any auto strains

Madonna(day 1 & Hericules(day 3)
Rm Temp 80F
RH 45%
CO2 ppm 1500
PH 5.7-6.1
PPM's 250-350
Res Temp 69-72F

Despite a small nutrient burn during the first week, the Madonna's are doing great. I am hoping they will stretch a little bit more and fill out the screen a little better, but if not I know to just veg them for another 5-7 days. I have never had a strain eat so lightly. I just saw my first real drop in ppm's today. They went from 300 to 140 over night. Previously, they would go from 300 to 240 overnight. The Hericules went in smoothly and seems to be doing fine, I also hope they are a little more stretchy than the Madonnas if they are going to fill out my screen, but only time will tell. If there are an questions or comments, feel free to post them. Thanks for stopping by.

off and running again Integra. Damn i love the way you grow man. Looks simple and neat. Good one.

 

[Heads Up]

Masonman, did you see the link to the grafting video?

Integra, sweet, that is a really nice looking set-up, you been tweaking it a bit?

DST, as promised, the pics of my yellowing girls. These pictures don't really show the yellowing as much as it is in person. These are my og18 and the sleestack.

Today starts week six of 12/12.


These two strains have started yellowing much more quickly than any other strain I've grown. I still think they weren't getting enough nitrogen and I've given them extra N over the past week or so, the last dose only three days ago. I don't want to give them any more this late into flowering. They will just have to do with the nitrogen that's in the flower nutes.

 

[1badmasonman]

Well I dont know what to say.


Clones prior to breaking int he new room.


Does not look to be to close to burn.


Glad i caught them when i did. They were a frying under the veg bulb while i was at work

OK enough pouting lol. Heres a few new arrivals to the grow.


DOG 1 & red cup Headband 1.


DOG 2 Just poppin through.

All 3 DOGare above soil showing off the cotlydons.

Peace 1bmm...

 

[Heads Up]

Masonman, is that a sativa on the left in the first pic, the before frying pic?

 

[Heads Up]

That's it for me folks for tonight. Another long day today and this old man is tired. Gonna' give the girls their last drink of the evening (their morning) and then it's time for a bag and some television before conking out. See ya'll in the morning, bright and early, well early, it's not even beginning to get light when I get up.

 

[1badmasonman]

I heard that Headsup. Been a long one for me 2. Work is really stacking up on my end. Wind bunrt and pooped meself haha. And yes Headsup that is my lemon skunk clone. Well you should know lol you got the LS growing too. I believe its a sativa dom. Some killer smoke. I got 2 oz curing now for 2 weeks. Its getting really potent. Some of the best weed ive ever smoked and i grew it. Fkn awesome.

Only a couple of things. I just started using a silica addative from Dutch Master and I grabbed a SunPulse 600w 10K bulb that you use for the last week or two and its supposed to help them get extra frosty like a mh bulb, but even more so. It gives off its own uv. Should have an idea if it works in about 6 weeks.

Thanks, It is simple, but Im always trying new stuff out so it gets a little hectic. This last harvest, I grabbed one of those 6 level hanging drying racks. It worked well, it dried my buds about a day faster than normal hanging(took 6 days at 65F 40%rh)But what I didnt like was having one side of every bud in it flat. The hang dry took 7 days. But I will continue to use it because it, my box, and the 3 lines in the closet were all full on this last harvest. It was my best one yet. Got my highest GPW of .975.

 

[talon]

Integra, that setup is beastly!

1badmasonman, those clones look beautiful. <3 Lemon skunk

 

[Heads Up]

Integra, that sounds interesting, keep us posted as to how that 10k lamp works out.

masonman, lemon skunks, hmmm. Mine don't look as sativa dominant as yours. I tied a branch or two from the lemons last night, they were starting to get droopy. They are the sweetest smelling girls, can't wait to taste them again.

 

[Heads Up]

I'm wondering, what do you guys usually get from one plant? This question is for the mere mortals amongst us, not jigfresh or genuity, you guys are in a class of your own. I vegged my girls for five weeks, the lemon skunks for four. I'm hoping for an ounce to two ounces per plant. Would this be considered average?

 

[mr west]

im averaging about 70 grams per plant give or take 20g and im a mere mortal lol

 

[Heads Up]

mr west, generally, how long do you veg your plants?

 

[mr west]

about four or five weeks genraly with one topping aswell

 

[Heads Up]

Generally, when do you top your plants?

 

[mr west]

Generally, when do you top your plants?

bout 4th or 5th node normaly. I also grow using the canna coco range of mediums and nutes and also use a bit of bat shit tea asa suplement
