Yea i am planning on grabbing this up. I watched Urban Growers video on youtube with barneys farm they showed off the TD. Im not sure if its better than all the other strains in the cup but it looks fire. If you watch urbanremo and urbangrowers videos from the cup, every single breeder that he interviewd that talked about how they grew their plants and what nutrients they ALL said Advanced Nutrients. It seemed to me like they are monopolizing the game for real. Fuck the lights, fuck the grower skill they went straight to the nutrients. Thats why noobie growers are cashn out on AN instead of getting good lights and trying cheaper more economical nutes. Its crazy its like brain washing the grow world.SMH

good to hear that, im planning to grab some seeds as attatude just got they order in on Barney's Tangerine Dream

Mr West, i think i agree with you. I have the Crimea Blue. So far it is just crap. I hatched 2 more seeds to see if they are any different. They have been in flower for about a week.

Mason-thanks. I just got my pocket microscope today. If i went by the time table it should still be a couple of weeks. I checked it out with the micro, damn all cloudy and amber. Best 10 bucks i spent so far.

Its been a hell of a long time since ive posted in here..
kinda missed it ..
planning a new grow after xmas.. perpetual serious seeds ak-47 grow. pulling 3 plants every 3 weeks.

i decided to make my last grow into a video because im too lazy to post hundres of photos..
let me know what you think.. i was over the moon to make an average of 2oz per plant with only one light and 13 plants.. i think its more genetics than my grow room. aiming higher next time round ..
enjoy :)

Whats the math on ventilation?
Lets say the 4x4x6.5=104^3/f
Now I want to know what kind Cfm it takes to bring the High 80's to hight 70's.

Dez id just put them in your bubble cloner and let them do there thing. If you just cut them today there is no way they are dead that fast. Put them in the bubble cloner fullup with water turn on the bubbles asap and leave them in until they root. Give it a go and see how they look in the morning Dez.
One did die but the rest are very happy in the newly built temporary bubble cloner. It's filled to just below the lid and they sat in water for a couple of hours and then I turned on the bubbles. They're very happy now. The big ones are a little shorter than they were since I wanted to give them a fresh cut but they look great. Stoked to not have to spend dough on clones. Last two times I did that I ended up bringing home bugs.

I know I freaked out a bit and with most things that's not my style but growing is still new to me and I am still unsure of myself with some things so I have a hard time not taking immediate action when I see something out of the ordinary. Kind of became habit with working in construction management.

BTW, I hung the Hot Shot strip in my veg room and started finding little dead bugs all over the garage not long after. There's no sign of any bugs in the grow rooms at all now.

Thanks again for the tip on that.

hey 600, anyone use a Phat filter? i ask this b/c i just got the 450cfm model and it had a lot of charcoal dust in it and when i turn it or shake it more comes out. cant seem to get rid of the loose stuck more just keeps coming out in when just gently rotating. anyone have experience with these filters? Is this normal?

I see yesterdays down time has brought out all the best in everyone. I have a camera so will get some pics up today.

Welcome ME!!!!!! i got my 6, but if anybody saw my thread i had to stop growing.. im keeping my 6 and givin the cops a month to arrest me. then its back on. so i will have my old trusty(400) and my new 600View attachment 1316508
Sweet T, just keep it ready to rock and we'll soon have you loving those 90,000 lumens

heres my babys day 39 from switching to 12/12
I would say you would be good to flush on these...very nice!

i use a 24" rhinopro filter and a 6"rvk fan (overkill) to push air through the 6" cooltubes, out the tent and up into the chimney. i think this is the best way to go.


i hope you like the artwork :D
Nice drawing lad!! I pull not push though. I have reverted back to my old set up. Filter>cooltubes>fan>out>

One more random thing about fans. The air after the lights is much hotter than the air before. So it is less dense, meaning less 'grip' for the fan to get at. If drastic enough it might offset the pulling vs. pushing effect. Also, supposedly bulbs don't like the positive pressure from having a fan push air over tham. I guess they have shorter lives with positive pressure vs. negative. All that being said, I run my fan after my lights.

Beatiful plants guys. Many of you posting great pics.

HU - I grow from clones.

I concur!! Marlow! Nice stuff indeed. The 600 sure does move fast.



PLants look happy. Any reason you put the fan between the lights? Do you notice any difference in the temps of the two?

Not sure what to do but I took a bunch of cuttings this morning from the Jack Herer and then had to go take care of a few things. I came home just a few inutes ago to find almost all of them are drooping really bad. The tops of them are bent down towards the tray. It seems to be mostly the larger cuttings which were just almost touching the top of the humidity dome. I stuck some pieces of rod in the cubes and tied them up to it but that only worked with one other clone I've tried it on so far.

Most of the clones I recently put in the bubble cloner did the same thing and I did the same thing. It worked on one of them but the others just continued to droop and then started wilting so I tossed them.

Any ideas on what's causing the problem? I'd hate to lose all of these clones since I don't have that many more cuttings I could take from the mom. I have the WW mom that I was planning on taking a bunch from today too but will need the majority of the cuttings I'm taking in order to finish filling things up.
My process for cloning is that I first soak the RW cubes in water that has Supernatural RW soak in it at the rec rate and that's been PH adjusted to 5.5.

I take my cuttings in the same way as anybody else with sterilized scissors and use sterilized exacto blades to split the end and then gently scrape the last 1" or so of the stem. Then I dip them in Schultz rooting powder and stick them in the cubes. This is actually the first I've ever split the end on, usually just scrape the stem lightly and then score it a couple times.

I've had very good success with cloning with the exception of one batch from the SLH and now these.

Here's a few pics I just ran and took.
Sometime I find that rooting gel or powder has a tendency to stop the plant sucking up water to keep it alive....this is my kind of theory on it. So I take a cutting and leave it in the jar of water for about 20 minutes or so. similar to fhresh cut flowers, this gives it time to take up some water. Although the plant cannot feed, it can still take water. However, when cutting or scraping, you can often create air bubbles on the skin of the stem. This also creates problems for the cutting. I always cut my cutting at 45 degrees, under water. If they then flop, I just take them back out of the medium, re-snip and put them back in the water until they perk up again. Then lightly dust with rooting powder and back into the medium. Works every time.

day 3 in the tent and the girls are still looking pretty sad, havent done anything to them, waiting for soil to dry out a little more before I water with plain water, any other suggestions?
i would suggest a drink for the girls now
As Wally said, time for some water. I would still have recommened a light nutrient water feed (but then my medium doesn't have added nutes in it).

Happy Saturday peeps.

Everything ive grown from barneys has been rubbish so i dont think this will be any difrent lol. Ill stick to cheese and psycho thanks lol

well you see boys, you should have used ADVANCED NUTRIENTS!. lol what a crock of shit, guerilla all i see is videos of these growers, who like you say plug AN like its the only way to grow.


ghb, I think your drawing is correct. The fans we use are sucking and blowing, I don't think it matters to them which they are doing since they are actually doing both in ghb's diagram. Filters are meant to be pulled through, it is best for your fan to use it the way ghb illustrated, this way the heat from your lights does not go through your fan. I just tried to turn mine around last week so it would suck from the attic now that the weather has cooled and blow the cool air through the lights into my other room and use it for heat as dst has mentioned doing. The problem, when I try to blow cool air through my lights, there is too much slack in my venting. When I suck through the vent it tightens up the duct from the suction.
headsup you know it makes sense!, if I'm going to leave my fan on constantly and its going to be getting a lot of charcoal particles in it i want to keep it as cool as possible. we all know these fans are more efficient at pulling but this way works well for me

yeah they are messy things at first, just make sure the pre-filter is on properly and non will get on the plants and thats all that matters. the longer you run it the less will come out of it.


and finally a cheeky copy and paste from the journal, 40 days of 12/12.

Looks like I missed a few posts...soz

Nice comments from the wee JL73, lol

Hey guys well Christmas came early for me this year. LOL I just took down a couple of plants that were ready ahead of schedual. Well only took have of each as the bottom still had some ripening to do.
This is the Thai tanic. Man it smells great!!! So far off only half a plant has given me 69 grams wet. So I still have 3 and a half more to harvest. Cant wait. had to stop as my son was coming home from school. More to do tomorrow and maybe take down some tonight.
View attachment 1317649

This below is my G-13. This main bud alone gave me 52 grams wet.
View attachment 1317648

Funny story. Finish trimming and cleaning up. Opened windows to let the wonderful smell air out befor my son got home. I see my son get off the bus so i go outside to smoke a cig (dont smoke cigs in the house, and only smoke bud when my son is gone) and BS with my son before he goes in, to try and give the HOUSE a chance to air out. I finsh my cig and me and my son head into the house. He ask me why does it smell so strong of pine did you get a tree already? I almost died laughing. Told him no I was just doing some cleaning with a new cleaner. HE tells me I should by that cleaner more often.LOL

Rep for the IRN BRU bottle, ak47 is a good commerical weed to grow for sure. quite common among growers up norht i heard.

Whats the math on ventilation?
Lets say the 4x4x6.5=104^3/f
Now I want to know what kind Cfm it takes to bring the High 80's to hight 70's.
Lights wattage, divide by 2, then add 20%, that will give you the squared metre rating you need. For a 600 I would recommend something around at least 350m cubed/hour...

You Guys are OUT OF CONTROL!!!!! I Like It :-)

8 Days until Scissorfest :hump:

Indeed, the only place where we can try and predict the weather acurately!!!

How freakish is that, I was just thinking about you the other day and wondering where you were at. It was actually after Mr West asked me about wheelchair access in the Dam, and I was discussing it with my wife (we both agreed it was random at best, I am not even sure if they have facilities to get on trams, they do on trains). Anyway bru, great to have you back. TODAY IS A GOOD DAY!!! don't worry, I won't bump the Ice Cube song,,, again. Pics coming up. Today to be seen first in the 600, then I'll copy and paste to my journal, hahaha.
