Morning Flowa, Those uvb bud pics look real frosty mate. I just picked up a 30 watt 10.0 uvb light for my next grow, i had a old aquarium light hood hanging around so i thought i would give it a go.

good man!! glad to hear you're gonna give UVB a go
its one of those things, some people will say how do you know if they make a difference?! when you grow them, you will see, the UVB will produce a radius of buds that are exposed, and they look alot different, much more musky floral smell on my growyeah i'll work something out with the inspection
they may have suspicions about me perhaps i don't know, every inspection there seems to be an issue. late/early/changed scheduled time.....what can i say.....it's life.

Do you have your uvb running the whole grow or just in flowering?
I am in the same boat as slantly, owning your own home is the way to go
. If you can, not always that easy. Been in house for 6 years and only just started growing in the last two, better late than never!

i know it's a hard Yakka, i have had a unfortunate few things happen which have put me behind a bit....but thats past crap, i'm all about having fun as long as you got a roof over your head, it's an even bigger bonus knowing i pulled off a few nice grows all in the space of 3 months and doing it all in a rental....I'm clean though and have never had a hydro spill. touch wood.........man am i bent, this stuff gives you the dopey eyes and doesn't allow you to open your eyes in bright sun.....i don't even know what bit i smoked.....congrats on you guys owning houses
i'm all for that

Hey FM, here are some pics of my hydro experiment following your design. She has been on the Cyco nutes for three days now and it looks like she is going to love them. It could be her age but in the past day she has taken off like crazy I want to credit the nutes though. The Cyco nutes are messing me up, I,m not used to being to see my pump in the res, a very clean product. I am waiting on the slime issue. Although, I am following your recomendation to drop the Zyme. Thanks for the help. I'll let you know how it goes.
This is my copy. the drain is streight down, just a big hole in the bottom.
The clone is the fimmed top of a teen I decapitated just to see what would happen both with the plant and if I could root the big ass clone. Here she is.
here she is in that old scrog frame from my White Magoo. I have come up with a way to add another layer of netting that I'm working on today.
This is a pic of my next WM under the new scrog I designed. I can pull her out like this and rotate 360 degres. She is in dirt 100% organic this run. I think next I'll try one of her clones in the hydro set up and see how far she will go.

Hey, I veg with them and I just added one to my blloom area. My plants grow a little slower but I like to veg for up to 8 weeks some times and they are cheep and run cool. The one I added to bloom is a red spectrom and the plants get it for the first two weeks and the last week. After two weeks I move them under a 600 watt HPS. The red T-5 is an experiment to see if I could increase the number of plants in bloom without a whole lot of expense.

maaaaan!!! impressive stuff, and i really mean that!! i love the idea that you cloned a fimm top, that is a BRILLIANT IDEA!!!!!!! you are a master. Glad to see you have utilized my setup and incorporated the 100% perlite method. 1 small issue i see is you don't have a lid on your res, come HPS time or in enough light, bacteria will grow and you may end up with mould on top of your perlite....
Great setups mate, love the 360' spin plant
but truly mate, the fimm clone.. extremely smart idea, that would be perfect for my setup and save a few days time where i top at the start and would help with a vigorous beginning with no set-backs. Very bushy indeed, and alot easier to train in my opinion, am i right?

what flowa new plant is looking great man , so on my current run it seems im gonna only come out with 1 or 2 females kinda a waste in my big tent with all my light so i might turn that into a seeding project so i can get more seeds and maybe even femmenize them over time we will see 
. but this brings me to the next thing im gonna bump up my plans to do a scrog .... pretty excited was just wondering if ya had the link for your first grow or the thread you show how you made your setup .... if ya did that if not no worries maybe you could explain it to me a little better exactly how your pretty setup runs cheers man.

i only published the full 3rd and 4th grows as the current grows, everything is pretty much in there for last grow, my link on the bottom will take you somewhere in that thread, goto page one, little jack x will be there
The last Grow link will take you directly to my 3rd grow ( indica/sativa hybrid ) . Jack no.5 will be a continuation from this.....
I hope there is enough info to help you out, if you need to know anything particular, write a list and i'd be happy to try and answer to the best of my knowledge

Thanks for the heads-up on the lid, it is not a problem I have several. I will put one on tonight. I can easily run my return through a hose; I put a fitting there just no hose.

sweet buddy ya in particular im interested in how your garbage can looks on the inside and what is it you have placed in there just a giant pot/netpot filled with perlite? also whats your res look like and how often you pump feed to the plant? cheers man srry for all the questions

good man, just being caution, thought id say something, if you have a tap on it even batter
you can fill the pot to flush, very easy and thorough, you know the whole system gets filled and rinsed.by garbage can i think you mean inside pot yeah? it has 4 holes in a cross section around 60mm round each, and yes it's kind of like a net pot but the inside pot is solid like the outside, and houses a 'pot sock' 50 litres are the easy size to come by. the pot sock has small holes on the bottom and the whole sock breathes because it's a light fabric, not really very strong, but handy being it's not going to rot roots, it allows the roots to just follow their natural way along the inner walls of the pot and eventually find their way to the bottom. The pot sock is supposed to make for easy disposal, yeah, once i have been able to lift the entire system out by the sock. Once. The rest have been too heavy and will rip/tear so i just tip it out upside down in a big 75cm x 75cm garbage bin, you may or may not have to remove the roots from underneath the inner pot so you can remove from pot.
I usually have 3 inches of hydroton on the bottom and the rest 100% perlite. This time i used maybe 6-7 inches of hydroton as i was low on perlite and had everything else ready to go, and seeing as the hydroton will only act as the base part of the roots system i think it will be fine for stability, and actually be quite the same as perlite. I would prefer 100% perlite soo far.....it doesn't matter imo.
My res is a 41 litre BLACK UV proof plastic tub, it has the outlet and inlet down the bottom which i'll present a photo of. I feed automatically every 2 hours from a 'pin' timer so i can set multiple times during 1 day to turn on for 15 minute cycles each feeding.
this is the inner pot on the outside ....
This is the res/internals next to the tent....and evap cooler/summer....
going up to the pot to a simple 6-8 nipple feed ring.
An a bit of bud porn from last grow
she was a beautiful sight, soo hard to chop them down when they look like that which i'm sure some of you understand....
