Looks like some good green. Notice most strains with Blue in the name are not actually Blue. Looks like it would smell good. The more I look at it tho. It does look like some fire bud. Sticky Icky

Day 19:
Things are looking a little better. Since lowering the water to about 2 inches below the pots I have noticed quite a bit of new root growth. Even on El Mon 2 which has had very little roots and is now growing them out the side and everything. My rooter was staying too wet and was overwatering them.

Not sure why it is not showing these pics. But you can click on the attachment link that is there and you can view the pics. Bullshit!!

Day 20:
Hooked up my intake and my temporary exhaust until I get my inline fan/filter combo. Ill drill a hole next to this one and run a water hose thru it and have it run from my drain spout to my water valve outside and have a separate water hose next to it for personal around the house uses. Ill take pics of that another day when I feel like getting back under there and hooking that up. Probably this weekend sometime.

Roots are really growing. They had a little black/brown slime on the so I added a little bleach to the rez and when I took this pic about 2 hours later I didnt see nearly as much on them

Cut a hole in the floor and insulation. See the ground below

Net pot and 6 inch duct
View attachment 1456405

I taped one net pot in each end of the duct to keep critters from coming up thru the duct and also has big enough holes for air to freely flow thru

View attachment 1456411

I cut thru the insulation underneath the trailer and ran the duct thru the floor and insulation and made it flush with the insulation.

Now just match the words from above to the pics here. They didn't post before because I had to refresh the page and copied and pasted the info back and I guess it didn't copy the pics.

Thanks. Yea they are looking a little better. They are only about 4 inches tall and I was planning on putting the screen at 10 inches above them but that would prob take another 2-3 weeks for them to get that tall. And I was kinda wanting to flip the lights in about 2 weeks, so I will have to wait and see what they look like I guess. I have the light approx 24-28 in above them and was wondering if raising the light a little bit to make them stretch a little would be a good idea? Or if keeping them shorter and compact would be better? Decisions Decisions!! They are all looking good but the Extrema looks like twice the size of the El Monstre and is starting to get a little bit of smell to it.

Thanks for all the feedback! Yea right. I'm starting to wonder if anyone else reads my shit other than you Mel. If I was a female then all of you would be lined up for subscriptions and full of advice and comments. Lol jk. But I guess I rather not have a bunch of BS advice in here unless its knowledgeable.

I raised my light up a little bit with the intent of making them stretch some. I dont want alot of stretch but a little is fine with me. I wish I would have let them go for about another node before I topped them but I have faith that it will all work out in the end once I get the screen up. When I have done soil grows I tried to keep them short and compact in hopes of getting a solid bud. I am going to get a water hose and stuff for the screen today, maybe. I have noticed at night time when I go check on them they will look kinda droopy and laid down and every morning I will check and they are perked up. Maybe they are tired and wore out from a long hard day of growing slow then they get there sleep and wake up. Ha!

I found this photo in another forum and thought it might be useful to someone:
Well maybe if I knew how to make it bigger where someone could see it. Oh well I tried.

Lol! I feel the same way about my journal ,but I do it mostly for me to keep track of the progres so... don't worry about that. It seems you know enough by now.
How high did you put your light ? My 1k sits at about 36" What kind of light again?
What kind of screen are you going to build?I'm thinking about scrog it too.
keep posting I might not have a good advice but I look foward to see your progress every day.

That pic of fim and topping was the one I used when I didn't have a clue about it.... good shit!

wow i don't even get a shout out :-)

But you are right the girley grows have people fawning all over them, and some of them are really shitty grows too.

Sorry Bonzi. Didn't forget about you. They chase the girlie grows cuz they think they gonna get some action or something somehow lol. I am planning on making my own screen. I'm actually about to head to get materials in a few so I will post some pics of it when I'm done. I am going to get some 1x2s and a roll or small diameter rope and make a screen of 2-2.5 inch holes and screw it to my cab frame about 8-10 inches above them. I have the light 28 inches above them as of now. I had it about 20 but I raised it to let them stretch a little. I am using a 400w MH Air Cooled. Really need to get my damn inline fan and filter ordered. Hopefully some time this week. I am getting growth from the plants but it seems that root growth has slowed. I'm at 440 PPMs now and thinking about cleaning the rez and jumping up to 600 PPM. I have been a steady 440 PPM for about a week with no sign of burn. Not sure how they will react to 600 PPM but we shall see. I'll post pics later.
