lol... yea about that tape. the pails i have arent exactly lightproof, and i wasnt really sure if it mattered with hempy and didnt have time to research it... so basically i just tossed a strip around each bucket where the water would be pooled just to be on the safe side... it was something i...
just put together my hempy bucket system... i used 1.5qt pails from home depot, put about an inch of hydroton on the bottom, then put in the netpot, and filled around the sides with hydroton. i need to go pick up more hydroton =/
so far everything is going good, cept for lack of sleep and too...
kk, yesterday i went shopping and bought a bunch of stuff... got a 3x3 that im going to use to veg my plants in hydroton hempy setups... managed to find these little bullshit pales that i can put a netpot in so that way when it comes to transplanting i can just pull the netpot out... also, the...
ok, i must note that i am chopping the lower canopy, which puts me @65-66 days, 61 when the tops were chopped down... i noticed that the more mature buds i left on are all sorts of purple now, and previously the buds only had a nice lavender/purple hue @61 days. the only issue is when i went to...
this time i think i am going to see if any friends i have that have nice slr's can come and take some good pics. i am going to start growing in soil this weekend, going to pick up clones, and a new cooler. gotta get things going at a faster pace here.
harvest is done, looks to be pretty good, left the pants to get some light for another week or so... tonight going to take clones from some mothers at a friends... gdp, og kush (larry cut), chem #4, chocolope, jack herer crossed with something i cant remember, and some others are available...
i grow in an apartment, and have a contingency plan if i get evicted. my grow is very neat and in tents, so if they were to evict me i would be surprised. my apartment complex is quiet and management and maintenance is pretty laid back. i really want to get out of this apartment sooner than...
air layers i took worked out and are recovering nicely... this one looked like it was gonna die for a few days once i snipped it, it was pretty shocked, looked like a normal cutting but has started to pick its leaves up today... not bad cut for less than 1 month invested in the whole process...
nice! yea we gotta see how this is gonna end up working out, it can be modified, i designed it while i was runnin around a grow store grabbing shit... could always add another 1/4" line to each pot for the other side... i asked the grow store if they had drip rings but they did not, so that was...
heres some pics of the soil setup i did for a friend, 3gal smartpots with irrigation in a 3x6 table, under 2x1000w on nextgen ballasts, air cooled hydrofarm 8" hoods... this system will be expandable to a very large reservoir and a total of 4 tables in the small ass room...
check it, get a drywall mud whip for a drill, a very large tub, something like this:

fill it with water, add your h2o2, make sure you wear protective gloves and goggles and let it circulate with that whip until all that organic material is...
i agree with you, if he could not look at that and understand what was going on just from looking at it, he should not install it. i've worked in electrical (though primarily low volt) for years, and it is peoples inexperience that puts lives at risk.
i use coolers, and i use the lids that come stock. best deal ive found is for jungle green coleman 5 day coolers from walmart for abou $50, they are 120qt or 30gal. i just get a hole saw for whatever size netpots... the inside of the lids on the 5 days is styro.
edited to add:
you can check my...
i love when people factor in all the elements of growing except for the labor, facility rental, insurance, transportation costs, lunches, etc that would be involved in running any other kind of business... also, it is not exactly a low risk thing, higher risk has always been correlated with...
ive been using dyna-gro and probably will never switch to anything else... my regimen is pretty much:
dyna-gro foliage pro or bloom depending on photoperiod
dyna-gro protekt
botanicare liquid karma
hygrozyme
and that is it.
heres some pics i snapped off at the botanical gardens near ann arbor this fall, just came across em so i figured id share. not my favorite gardens, but decent pics..
