I can't wait to get your issue of High Times--any idea when it hits the shelves (do they come out 1month in advance)? I want to get a copy before it sells out!
The last I heard it was going to be the cover story for June issue.

couldn't help it ;)





i tried to do a top feed setup with the Ez sprayers.... they really dont like it, they just kinda dribbled out instead of misting. Stink bud wouldnt steer you guys wrong, there is really no reason to do this, the roots dont get big enough to swallow sprayers, and even if it did, the NFT effect would adiquitly feed the plant. looks good though

Built the small, six-hole version with a 10 gallon. Growing from seed. I can germinate like a champion and get them started in Rapid Rooters. No problem.

Opened the rapid rooters after the tap root was out of the rapid rooter 1/2 inch and put 5 into the system. My conditions were ideal, 78 degrees, 40%, T-5's at about 6 inches, ventilation, 5.8 distilled etc but the plants stunted and what I noticed was that the roots really weren't branching or growing much. Only showing slight nubs for branches after almost one week. Above the net pots the seedlings looked droopy and overwatered. It seemed like the tap root was always soaked and held water too easily with 1 on and 5 off and maybe they needed some more air. So I went to 1 on and 10 off. Still no change after another couple days. It was like they were just happy getting their 5.8 distilled water and didn't have to work for it.

Sorry for the newb question. I am restarting 5 new ones and planning to grow the seedlings a lot longer in the rapid rooters and then transfer them to the system when they have multiple roots showing.

At that point, I will be very concerned about the feeding schedule again - particularly since they will be in rapid rooters.

Suggestions? Thanks.

Jeez dirt! That's like lining up the Dallas Cheerleaders and asking us which ones do we want to have sex with.

The answer is easy...All of them!

Kidding aside...White Russian and SSH will take too long to finish.

Anything with Kush in it will finish fairly fast and be good for medicine.

P-91? WTF? Headband? Hell I want to try it just because the name is so fucking funny!

Headband is OG x Sour Diesel I believe.

Quick question for you stink:

Are you using one timer for all three systems or three individual timers for your misters? 3 timers looks expensive!!

Hey Repvip-those are super sweet looking blue cheese buds. Are they Barneys or Big Buddah blue cheese? The reason I ask is I got my fence post loaded with Barneys BC and I also have some Big Buddahs BC's recently started.
These are Big Buddahs. I had a really great experience with Barney's Farm before though so I tend to like them better--I orded the wrong ones :eyesmoke:

What happened? Did you forget to close the valve?

I almost did that last week for like the third time! Right as the pumps came on I realized the valve was still open!:wall:

Of course is wasn't hard to figure out because the water caught me right in my crotch! It was cold as fuck too!
I wish! I keep the pvc connection from the pump to the sprayer assembly unglued--so I can easily pull out the rez, unhook the pump, and do my thing. Well, last time it was hard to separate the plastic pipes.... so I didn't put it on very tight :)

Needless to say I wasn't around when it happend. Went down, chopped a couple plants and must have bumped it. Couple hours of trimming later return to find an ominous puddle.. more like a lake!

It takes quite a few towells to clean that mess haha

Another simple solution to that problem is to use a long piece of clear vinyl hose and attach that to the pvc just over the top of the resivor, thats what I decided to do with my setup, I had extra hose laying around and it made it easy to hookup and unhook the pump from the pvc system.

I have a question. I am about out of room in my grow room. I have tied down the tops but the girls have stretched upward again so here is my question. Can i cut the tops of my larger plants to keep them under control without causing much damage? There is no way i can tie them down anymore. I think these are sativa strains and have outgrown my grow room. What do you all recommend i do?

How many sprayers are you running? With the 396gph pump? You might need a stronger pump to build up some pressure....

I've smoked some killer L.A. Confidential just recently. Coming out of a pro gardeners medical garden. It was definately top notch ganja.

Stink I am sooooooo tired! There is no way I am harvesting alone next time. I may even have a blister.

Finally finished harvesting the rest of the first batch. Flushed for two weeks and (even though a couple weren't completely finished) they were starting to die and reabsorb the THC glands...? At least, the larger fan leaves aren't as covered in trichs as they were before.

Anyway, good news--looks like I hit my target goal of 4oz :blsmoke:

https://www.rollitup.org/2053215-post3192.html
These have been hanging for 4 days--can see them in the third pic with different color. Geez! I thought I was halfway done with those first three plants.. I was way off! It probably has taken a good 6-8 hours total trim time.

oh yeah--these are still all blue cheese.
Yeah, Rep! Way to realize your goal! I need to do more of that... Thanks for the inspiration! You got lots of dank medicine! Great job!

It's hard to explain taste. I've been all over the world many times and have tried many of the best buds from Nor Cal and Hawaii. I've been smoking for over 35 years. Never have I tasted better weed than my organically grown weed.

I also donate a lot to patients and they all say the same thing. It's not just a little bit better, it's night and day.

The one theme that you will see over and over again is how good the buds end up tasting. Every person that harvests here will tell you the same story.

Your weed will taste the best and everyone else will agree. They will take one hit and be amazed. In a few minutes they will just sit there drooling in a comatose state.

Your right, Organic is the shit!
Wow - great testimonial - I can't wait to get a couple of my fav strains through the Stink system...

More great inspiration - thanks!

Thanks! I've never harvested more than 2oz before so I'm not real good at guessing, but I'm thinking this will be around 8oz, which is keeping up with the average (bare minimum? ok maybe not) of 1+oz/plant.

Sweet! I have a previous generation of the same plants grown in dirt for comparison--you may have guessed--they can't compare. Funny thing is, I'm talking about fresh organic bud dried in a dehydrator vs dirt that's been curing for 3 weeks!!

If the rapid rooter with seedling goes into system with a few roots poking out and say 2 inches tall, how would you set the timer to water? I tried moving just seedlings into system after taking them out of rapid rooter but 1 on and 5 off drowned them. I hope a longer time in rapid rooter gaining strength will give them more of a chance once in the system but am afraid of drowning them again.

Anyone from experience?
