Growitup Greenhouse 2011

So from what I hear the intake or suction is on the front of these things. Cool, that will work then. Thanks guys.
I got her covered again, not so much for rain protection cause I doubt I will see much rain before they are done but this will keep the bird shit off of them. We got a bird feeder in the yard (not my doing) and they sit on the wires over the greenhouse. What chicken wire I couldn't remove I cut holes in so the top colas can grow through it.
I untied a few branches and opened up the canopy some. Now I need to make some screen covers for the sides.
Oh, BTW It was my mistake. the excess moisture that caused mold on the train wreck was from moving the bubba in and out and not reattaching the feeder line each time. Instead it watered the floor. Pulled a Homer, D'oh!

wow... amazing green house... i just wasted my whole morning skimming your thread!
Oh, I guess I missed that, Transission period, yes take that into account, its usually two weeks then go whats recomended for the plant and look at the trichomes. Usually its another two weeks before its done. Flushing in soil, If you loaded the soil with nutes then yeah, dont feed for the last couple weeks, if you didnt add nutes then no need to flush.
Ha! nice way to start a day.
Thanks man, hope you enjoyed it.

Bubba is sooo chunky good Cruzer dang brother hitting it out of the park again.
Down here a lot of our greenhouses love that poly carbonate usually we see milking around the second or third year. On another subject ever think of modifying the g house for temp controlled elevator flaps? I know a guy with a native plant business has just that for his cuttings greenhouse, thought of you when i was in it the other day.

Right on, I guess i do put a little more into my journals but I got the time.
Good to know that's its not just me. I thought that plastic sheeting would have gone longer without clouding up... Not sure if I wanna replace it, its a pain in the ass getting it up there. Temp controlled flaps, Yes, I have seen those and the fan powered louver vents too. I sorta did that with the single vent on the top. I bought a couple solar openers that open at 70° and close at night but I couldn't figure out a way to screen it and made it stationary. When I put the roof back on I might do that all the way across.
Thanks for the input, that's whats great about sharing my grows with you guys.

I just got off the phone with my nephew, he is moving and cant take his plants with him so I am gonna take a drive today and pick them up.
He's got six tangerine dream clones a grand daddy purple and whats suppose to be green crack. He said he got it in a seed form, I thought that was clone only strain.
Well, this isn't what I had in mind but I'm gonna have some room out there pretty quick when I cut bubba and train wreck so, what the hell.

Those TD's seem like they are gonna take awhile huh. Loving the chunkiness on that Bubba she is looking great!!.
Cant wait to see some new stuff going out there soon

Yeah I had no idea the TD would take so long to get started. I'm ready for some quick flowering indica.
So like today I drove about 5 and 1/2 hours round trip and picked up my nephews plants.
Turns out he had 10 total. The strains I want happen to be the bigger ones but they are full of mites and not very healthy. He also said they were in veg but they look like two weeks into flower to me. That sucks, I'm not putting them out in the greenhouse like this. I picked the five best looking plants, not the biggest but healthiest, shot them with spidermite knockout, added about 3 inches of FF ocean forest to the bottom of the smartpots and put them in the cab.
My guess is these are all Tangerine Dream. The other five are on the side of the house, guess I"ll take some cuttings and toss those.

I got a better look at the others, they suck.
Between the stress of the mites and no darkness (he had them on 24/7 for the last month or so) they are herming so I tossed them.
I got a dehumidifier off of Craigslist yesterday. 30 pint with defrost $130
Turns out the dude was a member here on rollitup and has seen my journal. LOL no kidding.
Small world huh?
Anyway, what got me to make a move and get it is we got our first rain this year. That cover kept them dry but I got three big puddles on the top and had to swish it off with a push broom. Not good as we are expecting a lot more. Make me wanna get that bubba and trainwreck out of there before more mold sets in. That dehumidifer isnt going to do much good with the top open like that but I can use it in the shed to help dry them.
Hanging in there. Tangerine dream buds are forming.
Its weird, I got plants in every stage of flowering.
Bubba,

Good luck with the dehumidifier! I really hope it helps, and isnt that cool about the guy on Craigs list, thanks for helping keep them butties alive hehe
Soo I got a question for you Cruz, how abnormal is it to get a seed here and there in your grows, I seem to always have 1 - 4 seeds from a harvest of 4 total plants. but i can never find the male flowers. Unless I have found them and just dont recognize hermi.

Thanks man, Yeah, not too many people in my area need a dehumidifier so ya gotta figure hes a grower. It was pretty cool, he's like "do you go to rollitup?" I'm like yeah, he says "you'er cruzer huh?" Had me pegged. His handle on here is Caligrown, used the thing for like half a grow and that was it. He had some badass lavender trainwreck drying.
The seed thing, The way I understand it it the plant has a survival mechanism built in and produces a seed on its own once in a while. I think I read it on here before and somewhere else. So I doubt you been missing the male parts.
No shit huh?
Train or bubba didnt produce much but I think I'm gonna be loaded for bear with Tangerine dream.
Its raining on and off again today but I got it under control. Good news is we are back in the sun for at least the next couple weeks. Not having direct sunlight lets me get a good look at the trichomes on Bubba Kush. Shes been flowering for nine weeks now, I think my harvest window just opened up. Check it out.
I think I am gonna go ahead and chop her.

Yea, I cut Bubba and some of the train wreck when I saw the mold.
Sucks man, but its my bad so wadda gonna do. Figured I better salvage what I can.
I got them hanging in the shed, I ran the dehumidifier the last 24 hours and it was full this morning. Then this afternoon I checked and it was like 80° in there so I switched to a fan and will run the dehumidifier only at night now that things have warmed up.
Bubba
Part of Train wreck
I cut these back more to help them dry faster.
This is all Tangerine dream now, plants on the left are finishing faster.
