Crispy Bacon Med Grow

Anyways, I began construction of my growroom in september. Its still not finished due to limited funds but it has everything I need to get by until I can afford to finish it.

The veg room is 5'8"x10'6" and the flower room is 15'x20'. Both are being used as flower rooms right now and I am using my 4'x4' tent for veg. The tent has a 400w hps over the vegging plants and 45 site cloner. Flower room has a 1kw hps and a 600w hps over two monster bubble buckets and a bunch of 6" soil pots, respectively. The veg room has the same setup except instead of the buckets, the 1kw is over a completely over-vegged 3'x3' ebb and flow table.

The flower room has a panda film partition hanging from the ceiling since only 5'x15' of it is in use. Due to problems with the exhaust fitting my landlord has in place, no exhaust or intake is in this area. Instead I have a CO2 tank that I just picked up today that I'm hoping will make up for the lack of fresh air. Also hoping it will allow the plants to be more tolerant of the heat that that area has right now (canopy is about 80f)

Strains: island sweet skunk, sour diesel, og kush, bubblegum, and deathstar.
Not sure about any of these cuts but they are from a family friend and am told that they are top notch. Still would like to get my hands on some cookies and shoes though :)
(Plan to order qleaner and vortex seeds ASAP)

Okay that's more than enough blabber, let me take a dab of some of this 710labs shatter and get some pics up so y'all can see what's going on here :)
 
Wow I am absolutely destroyed from that one dab. Typing this is a struggle for sure right now:lol:
So I went down and took some pics of the girls. Have some work to do so ill post more pics later (or tomorrow, can barely think straight!).
Here we go:

Sorry, going to have to tackle this in pieces I guess. I don't have a USB cable for my phone so I'm uploading pics from my phone on the desktop site which is a PITA. Anyway, the second pic is the veg tent. This batch of clones looks like shit which I'm guessing is due to the high temps in the tent. Not a huge concern because they are bubblegum and deathstar, which I would hate to lose but in reality they are the expendables of the bunch. The bottom right corner is the OG's in rockwool.

Its hard to see with the lighting but there is some pretty bad chlorosis on the older foliage of the OG's. This is also present in the sweet skunk but to a lesser degree. The rest of the plants in this tent are the sweet skunks and they're in 6" square pots which contain a 80/20 mix of ocean forest and perlite. If anyone could help me diagnosis this problem it would be greatly appreciated!

Let me make a cup of coffee quick and I'll post pics of the flower room. Thanks for everyone tuned in btw, I know it's a lot to read and I try to break it up as much as possible, but I really appreciate anyone willing to take the time to read all of this. Cheers! bongsmilie
 
1st pic-"flowerroom-flowerroom": (2) 5gal BB's, one ISS, one OG. Deathstar, ISS, BG in 6" soil pots. Everything in this room is pretty ghetto and I can't stand it. That will all change soon though.

2nd pic-"vegroom-flowerroom": This 3'x3' was left in veg for way longer than it should have been(long story but if you really are curious feel free to ask). It has (9) ISS trees in it that have been a struggle to keep away from the light. The rest of the plants are SD's in 6" pots. Nice and branchy, topping did wonders on these IMO.

3rd pic-My homemade table stand. As you can see I made it high enough for the res to fit under but didnt take into consideration width :( . The res has to be at an angle to fit under the table. I'm trying really hard to remember how it even got under there in the first place and I seriously can't remember:mrgreen:. It is on wheels though which kicks ass!

4th pic-intake rig. Its cold AF here right now so this puppy is pumping in some really nice fresh air! Oscillating fan blowing on the canopy of the table, keeping it nice and cool up until about 5-6" from the bulb:-)

5th pic-Stalk of ISS BB. I really think the tomato cage saved the day. Like the table, these guys were way over-vegged. It would surely be tipping over left and right without the cage!
 
Buzzin hard off this coffee, sobered me up quite a bit :)

1st pic-OG stalk. This thing is so woody it's ridiculous!
rest are just close ups of the girls. They are all day 19 of 12/12 and are being fed AN Sensi bloom A&B(pH perfect), bud candy, and big bud. Occasional flushes with Clearex. After this AN runs out, which will be before this run is over, making a switch to Ionic. Heard great things and its simple so I figure I'd give it a try. Oh yeah, and it's about 1/10 the price :D

Well I'm off to transplant these clones, set-up the CO2, and if time permits, fix that ghetto ass trellis rig! Later peeps!
 
Hey mods could you please change the thread title to something more appropriate please :). I didn't realize titles were permanent. Thanks!
 
haha glad you guys appreciate the title! In Russia, title makes YOU!

Ibex, I hate/love you lol. That qleaner looks super bomb. Are you in CO by any chance? Will def be checking out your stuff later today!

Brokeoldbloke, I appreciate the kind words bro!

The quote and multi-quote are next to the reply. I think you can edit the title if you wish by selecting edit then advance. Looking forward to seeing how things progress, keep posting!
 
Okay I think I got it this time. I saw the buttons and tried last time but the quotes didn't show up for some reason? Thanks for the help though guys!

And Ibex, that would be really awesome of you! Although it's still not safe to say you are in the clear ;)

just having a snack and then have to go finish up todays work. Pics/update to come!
 
Well I just realized that the multiquote attempt failed yet again! I'll just sit down and learn it tomorrow before I smoke, quite an embarrassing thing I need to straighten out:oops:

Smoking some of this OG kush from the club right now. Need to get sleepy, class in a lovely 6hrs:wall:

Starting to work for sure!

Anyways, my brother and I moved the clone machine up next to the mom tent until tomorrow. Transplanting in the AM.

Taking the clone machine out really opened the tent up. It is still ridiculously overcrowded. These are getting topped and thrown into flower ASAP. The ISS is nice and healthy though, very pleased with it so far :)
The OG is a little finicky, have to adjust next feeding. Probably can't tell from the pictures(camera is on my Xmas list!)

The girls were waving to you guys! They said, "Hi RIU, we're happy little plants!"
These are ISS day 20^

This is the deal with the clone machine. The left, healthy ones are deathstars, a few different phenotypes. The bubblegum are in the middle picture, and look like complete crap. I'm not bothering to diagnosis them but if someone could I would appreciate it. We are probably going to scrap this strain anyway.

Grown in the same conditions, the deathstars rooted up plenty good. Not a single one of those roots in the third picture belongs to a BG! Sorry bro, didn't make the cut!
These deathstars are starting to really impress me, especially for bagseed. Always skeptical about bagseed :)
This batch was taken 2 weeks ago, during the first week of flower. Either that BG is sensitive or the deathstar can withstand pretty harsh conditions(inconsistent temp and humidity, high temp, low hum). Which ever it is the deathstar is a keeper as of now.

These guys are going in soil in party cups tomorrow, will post pics after I figure out where the hell to put them! :confused::rolleyes::hump:
 
Looks like today will be shopping day and tomorrow work day. About to head to Denver and fill up my car with supplies, can't wait :)!

Not sure if anyone heard but another school shooting in Colorado today. I've heard only one person was killed other than the shooter, which is good but still one too many. On the anniversary of sandy hook too, smh. RIP and heart goes out to families and children affected. Such a tragedy..

On a brighter note, TGIF and no more classes :hump::shock::-D8)bongsmilie

Cheers!
 
Damn man just poked in and saw, what a sick grow! Subd!
Thanks man!

Holy cow am I tired/in pain. Clocked at least 40hrs in the room this weekend. Barely slept more than 5hrs a night and ate like shit, completely shot now:?

Despite all the pain I'm in and how heavy my eyelids feel, I'm about to make a cup of coffee, do some dabs/bowl packs and start all of these transplants:?:?

Up to 20 veg/23 flower ;)

Will post some pics in a bit when I finish(or throw in the towel). TON of pics tomorrow once I finally finish the work I started thursday :-o Grow room of my dreams(and probably yours too!) is almost complete! so stoked!

Wish me luck peeps...gonna take a lot of caffeine and a lot of bong rips to get through this:shock:(<- me for 30 min after this coffee lol)
 
Figured I can't tease you guys for ever, here's some pics to hold you over:lol:
Screenshot_2013-12-16-21-57-47.jpg20131216_144936.jpg It looks like a cat and I didn't even mean to do that! Day 24 Iss in the first pic. Starting to really pack on mass and sugar, smells really sweet. Candy like
