You can pack it up fairly well, just leave a little room for air and don’t double stack the buds. I do a rough wet trim first, all fan leaves and big stems go. This is the diy version of the cannatrol.

I generally don’t weigh it either, but very near to over a lb a plant depending. Each scrog net is 32”x32” and has its own light at 450w+ though. I have a 4 plant limit so go big. 27 gal is probably overkill, which is part of why I haven’t tried it yet.

No I have not tried the lotus cure. Something about putting the buds in pizza boxes made me look elsewhere, but I later did hear some people love it. If you have fridge room give it a shot and let us know how it goes.

If it stays 85f and under I think it would work just fine, esp. if you are planning to dry at 60f, no problem.

You are correct that it is the cold side that pulls the moisture out as it condenses. I have never tried putting the hot side of the dehumidifier outside the cooler just because of the extensive modifications required to the insulated box of the cooler. Now it’s just one small hole and done...

I can relate to high temps, and the room my coolers are in gets up to 80f frequently with no problems, but not much higher than mid 80s. I live in the mid-east and we are always hot and humid, same reason I made the coolers as well, I can’t afford to cool and dehumidify an entire room just to...

I’m sure the earthboxes are great and have never said a bad thing about them. As I said I even use the techniques they suggest for my nute placement. I just need more size as I grow bigger plants, I’ve been thinking of moving to 27 gallon totes vs 17 gallon, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet...

I started with SIPs a couple years ago, and have really been enjoying them so far. I use my diy built 17 gallon totes. I started with about 60% quality container mix from a big box store, not potting mix, container mix. I amended 15% peat, 15% perlite, 5% vermiculite, 5% ewc. I now use the...

I decided to go ahead and do a final defol and put up the trellis net on the other 2 girls last night. Here’s all three before lights out. The Golden Tiger, already filling back in some. The Malawi And the Puck. I took a ton more off of her, and there’s still about 50 tops above the...

I use pvc frames with hooks placed every 3-4”or so, then just use jet line to make the net. They can be very tight if you want, and no need to glue the net, the string holds it together. I just put this trellis on top of the scrog net below last night. Edit: I just screw the net frame into...

I don’t know about the Cannatrol shelves fitting. The dehydrator mats work very well. https://amzn.to/4dXJF8w

It’s been 3 weeks since the flip to 12/12 and time for another weekly update. The puck has really taken off. I pulled a ton of lower branches and foliage off, you can hardly tell, although you can see through her to the other side in spots so it did open her up for some more air. I gave her a...

Thanks. I love peppers and have been trying to save the seeds each year, adding one or two more varieties and keeping the ones I really like.

Here’s the mountain longhorn peppers. They’re like a cayenne but grow a foot long and curly, have a bit more flavor with a bit less heat. There’s jalapeño as well of course Here’s some Fresno chilis, a lot like jalapeños. The Habinero has been slow to develop fruit this year, but I...

Here’s my current pepper line up this year. I grew 2 or 3 of each, and am now busy making sauces, drying, pickling, making paste and smoking some of them (not in a bong, almost forgot who I’m talking to). This one is a ghost pepper, one of the super hots. These are yellow Thai, great in...

I’m feeling better after only a week and a couple days, but I’m still hacking up stuff as well, and just dragging over all. This one really sucks. I also noticed my taste and smell is gone for some things. I walked into the grow room a couple weeks ago and was happy they were starting to smell...

Thanks. They are Puck, Golden Tiger and 2 Malawi. The puck is C&C, the sativas are Ace. I was going to post yesterday but am still just dragging coming off a bout of Covid.

That’s how a SIP works. I only top water my plants once a week when I add dry amendments. Right now they drink 2 gallons a day, all bottom watered, so yes it will work. This is from last weekend, they’ve shot up another 8” at least. This weekend is thinning out and trellising, at least if...

Awesome, I look forward to hearing how it works for you. I’m thinking of doing the exact same thing for raising the cooler and adding a larger drip tray for mine as well. It’s really the only thing that requires me to be home when I start the process, so I have to make sure I’m going to be...

A good sativa during the day, an indica for watching a movie before going to bed. My favorite sativas I’ve grown are Super silver haze, super lemon haze and laughing Buddha. I’m growing Malawi and golden Tiger now, I hope they top my list. As far as indicas go, the Do-Si-Dos I grew my last...
