Nice setup. Where did you get those buckets and lids?

Thanks man. Yes it is definitely sufficient but I think I can get it up to a full 2 pounds of tops eventually. I need to get a little experience with this setup and then I am sure I can get some great results out of it.

Hey guys, just wanted to report back on yield. It was 1.5 pounds of tops and a little over a half pound of lowers and trim. It is a decent yield but I know there is room for improvement. I am dealing with a nice thrip infestation right now so it's no time for celebration but as everyone knows...

I am not sure about hanging a full 5 foot plant, I guess it would depend on how wide it was. Either way you could cut it up into a few, more manageable sections. You don't want too many cuts because that speeds up the drying process so maybe 2-4 sections? You will have to play around with that...

I find that trimming after drying produces a better end result. The smell and taste are much better when doing it this way when compared to trimming then drying. This method may be better for me because I live in a very dry area where the trimmed buds would dry too quickly and smell like hay or...

Hey guys. Sorry I forgot to post pictures of the drying tent full of bud. Here it is right after harvest and about a week later:

Sounds like a good plan.

Thanks! They are great controllers. I have 3 of them. I highly recommend them for ease of use and value.

Thanks. I am hoping it will be big enough. The picture is a little deceiving as the tent is only 5 feet tall. An oversight on my part when i ordered it but no huge deal. I think it will work regardless but it would be a good problem to have too much to fit in there.

Here is my newly setup drying tent. I am ready to fill it to the brim in a few days. The environmental controller will sit on top of the wire rack. I just brought it down to show it off. 8)

Nice, how often do you change your nutes? And at what temps are your reservoirs?

Yes that's a good idea. I use a Sentinel CHHC-4 environmental controller to slowly bring the humidity down in my tent. Its overkill, all you need is a humidity controller like you mentioned but I have a couple extra CHHC-4s just lying around so might as well use it.

I used to dry like you, trimmed at harvest and then dried in racks. My buds were drying way too quick because of the low humidity so I now dry the whole plants by just cutting them and hanging them whole. It now takes 1-2 weeks to dry the buds depending on their density and the smell and taste...

My closet in that room is filled with nutes and supplies, no room for bud. Its a rather small closet. I can't wait to get big enough to rent a warehouse. That's where I want to be, get this out of my house and get all the danger away from my dog. That way I can do more hydro and not worry so...

A lot of factors like rooting time are strain dependent but technique also plays a role. Sounds like you have some good genetics and some good technique if you are getting 7 days consistent. I do clones in root riot cubes and usually get good, decently long roots in 14 days. Then they are ready...

I just got my cheap 2x4 tent that I am going to use for drying. I almost forgot all about a space to dry in since I am now always in flower I cannot dry in that room. Just a heads up for all of you other people out there trying to go perpetual. Just another thing to overlook and bite you in the...

Nice, good luck. What's the plan, lollipop them all and do a SOG? I checked on my plants last night and they have really started to fatten up and shoot out new growth. I hope this keeps up for the next week because these are going to be some fat colas and that was my original goal. The...

Sounds good, have you done this setup before? How much do you usually get when harvesting? And I am not sure if my previous post was clear, I have 49 plants under each 1000 watt light so that's 98 plants total. Just under that Federal limit of 99.

If I could get an ounce per plant I would be thrilled. They are 1000 Watters and 49 plants in a 7 x 7 configuration.

It's a pretty good strain so far, fairly easy to grow with decent yields. People seem to like it so I had to ramp up my operation a bit. That's the reason this is the first grow in this setup. I hope to pull about 2 pounds a month in this, possibly more if I get it all dialed in. As soon as...
