Click to expand...

Umm, Look at the attachment, duh.

NYCD? didnt know that was purple...

I don't know and don't care. I found it somewhere, don't think its photoshopped, and if it was thats one energetic stoner , i'm too lazy to do that kind of work. I don't care what it is, but its some good lookin weed. haha

haha i wasnt trying to argue with you i just didnt know...

Lol sorry Spida, I didn't expand the pic before, didn't know that is had a name on the picture. Hell ya it looks good, i'm with you DK I didn't realize that NYDC was a purp. I know you can make many plant change some color with low temp stress, and low phosphates, but that is super purp!!! Are you growin it Spida, or jst find the pic, either way nice lookin shit!!

yeh thats some bomb ass lookin diesel. But i dont want diesel i want the ORIGINAL Chemdog. Diesel is offspring from chemdog, but that aint close enough, lol.

MY FUCKIN SEEDS ARE STILL SAYIN THAT THE PACKAGE IS PREPARING TO BE SHIPPED FROM ITS ORIGINAL POST. Im gettin fuckin antsy man. I did EXPRESS mail - my shit shoulda almost been here by now no?? I got EVERYTHING comin man, i finished my complete growroom order last night, heres the last rundown for what i picked up, n i wont go on about it anymore untill it all comes, n ill let u all watch me set it up, lol.

I picked up:

600w HPS/MH electronic ballast system
Cooltube Reflector (6" by 19")
ELF filter
2x4x5 hydrohut
2 Canfans 4"
1 Vortex lookalike 6"
Honeywell 48" tower oscilating fan/ionizer with "breeze" speed n remote
4" ducting n Flanges n clamps
6" ducting n flanges n clamps

N fuckin 140 bucks worth of seeds that are pissing me the hell off...

So i got everything covered except bags, nutes, n some extra FF ocean forest. From there ill pick up a cloning box with humidity dome, temp gage, some more Ph test strips, plus ph up and ph down, Thermometer for the soil, n ummmmmm....fuck i cant think of anything else right now. I cant afford a fuckin 3way meter that tests for all deficiencies, so ill have to wing it there. But i should be okay i think with all this fuckin crap, lol. I spent a total of 430 bucks on EVERYTHING, except for all the little shit i gotta get at my local dro shop. I went bargain huntin for 3 weeks before i committed to get everything, n it was worth it IMO, even though im still waitin for it all to show up so i can see that i didnt order just a bunch of worthless bullshit, LOL.

Well king it looks like you have all the bases pretty well cover man. Sucks the seeds are takin so long. Where did you order them from? Maybe I missed it earlier, but what strain did you decide on?
Chemdog would be bad ass, its the mother of NYCD, and also the OG Kush from cali I believe, very similar stuff, just opposite coasts. I can't remember where on here, but I thought there was someone that was doing a chemdog grow journal!!

yeah when did you order your seeds man? my first order from attitude took two weeks. and their tracking is shit it never updates use USPS.

Haha, I didn't mean to come off as snappy DK, I was just saying it. Its like i don't care what kinda weed it is, im smokin it. hahaha. Nah It's not mine unfortunately I just found the pic.

yeah i ordered from Attitude, so im not stressin or nothin, its only been a week, i was just worried cuz the usps track n trace shit hasnt updated since attitude shipped my seeds out.

I ordered twilight feminized n bluecheese fem too. got those free g13 thai super skunks, but im not chancin havin males even sprouting next to these babies cuz i want these bitches to be pure lol.

N fuckin the company i ordered my lights from on ebay is tryin to dick me around....tryin to say that the setup i ordered was a typo in their item description - fuckin 114 bucks +shipping for a complete 600w setup including the ballast was the description, but theyre tryin to say that it wasn't supposed to include the digi ballast. Hes tryin to haggle with me now, sayin that hes out of 600w digis n he wants to downgrade my order to a 400w system. fuck alla that shit, lol i aint lettin him try no punk ass bullshit with me, i cant afford it. I ordered the cooltube seperate cuz i was gettin 600w of power n i want as much lights on these plants as i can possibly get.

Set him straight King!

i think i did, lol. We got off the phone with him saying he would call me back in a couple of hours after he does his inventory and hell see what he can do for me. He told me not to leave any negative feedback on his ebay account until he calls me back, so hopefully hes gonna make good on his own mistake. it aint like i was threatenin him or nothin, just said that i was broke as fuck n the only reason i bought his fuckin system was because it was a good deal n included everything. I told himto gimme a refund n id go get the other system i saw for 40 bucks more, n he didnt wanna do that shit, so hopefully hes gonna make good on his advertising n ship out my fuckin light soon.

Yeah king you gotta be careful with these people. But that's their job, they don't want you talking to ebay about them, so you gotta call their bluff. You should deff get either what you paid for, or all your money back. Hows the grow going?! Hook it up with the pics!
Oh, check out my box under construction if you want, link in sig.

fuckit - i shoulda just posted it in here to begin with, lol everyones tellin me to just make my own, but nobody is answerin my question.

DripBucket6.2 Hydroponic System 6 Plant+ Control Bucket - eBay (item 110294896455 end time Oct-05-08 18:19:01 PDT)

This is the hydro system i was thinkin about buyin. Its not gonna take up TOO much space heightwise, and its for 6 plants. even though i wanned to grow 8-12 plants, i figure that with the dro system the plants will be bigger, and with bigger buds it would make up for the lack of plants i would have as opposed to growin in soil. Am i right in assuming this??

Also, my original question attached to this, would be is this system adequate for growing nice, big ass plants producing BIG nuggets??

N would the buds actually turn out bigger then they would if i were growin in FF with FF nutes??

DUDE...!!!!!

Buy a few buckets and throw in an airstone in each coupled to a big air pump and you got your DWC for way cheaper, less shipping...

You can even try to find the square buckets, as they would waste less floor space...

Just what I would do in that situation... and may yet end up going that route...

The tent I am getting is 48 wide x 48 tall x 20 deep , with the 600 that should be here anyday now... along with the 8" x 19" cool tube...

Hope this helps you save a buck...

Cheers ...

Gypsy...

gypsy, were gonna have pretty much the exact same grow goin on. Our dimensions are literally within inches of each others tents. Only my tent is 60" high. but same deep and same length almost.

Ill tell u what well do man. Ill just stick to my soil for this grow, cuz id rather play it safe n grow with what i know with my good seeds, and experiment with dro when i move out in feb to a bigger space.

So what we could do is, me n you could grow the same amount of plants, me in soil, n you in dro - same lighting (600w HPS/MH with cooltube, comin by end of next week at the latest) , and same tent.

We can see how we compare as far as difference in our plants at different stages. Not a competition, but more of an experiment. What strains are you growin?? n we can start on the same day germinating, and let it take off from there. It would be kinda cool havin someone doin the same grow as me with slightly different conditions, n we can pick each others brain n see whats workin out n whats not. U game??

Hahahah... that's pretty good...

Well, I've got another 3 to 4 weeks to finish what I started...

And I am not going to have a 600 just laying around not being used...

So the current batch is about to have a light storm... lol...

but by the time these are done, my mom will be able to donate some clones, and they will go in to flowering right away, zero vegg... as soon as there are roots... 12/12...

as for strains...

I have a back alley, oldschool, been around forever, unknown Alaskan strain... seems like an even sativa/indica mix...

I also have 2 White Widow seedlings and 3 Juicy fruit seddlings along with 3 bagseedlings that have turned out quite indica'ish, with very broad leaves....

I've posted some pics on my journal...if you want to see what's going on...

As for the experiment, I can't see it quite working, but I will be glad to exchange notes...

But I think you should do at least one DWC, to learn and also to compare with the rest of your crop...

Dude, I'm telling you... it's easy...

Go check my food products... in tupperware containers... and the flowers in the ice bucket... not to speak of my miniatures.... easy dude...

Anyways.. best of luck...

and hit me back with some comments.... lol...

Peace..

Gypsy....

its cool i still got about 5-6 weeks on my flowering bitches too, n im throwin them in my tent while i germ n veg my dankies for a few weeks in my original homebox.

No worries tho gypsy, exchanging notes is always a good thing. I can still use all the help i can get, so dont think i wont be on here still everyday lookin like a fuckin deer in headlights askin for help, lol. N im on my way to your grow RIGHT the fuck now. Thanks man.

N Tigg -

I definitely see where your comin from, n everyone else whos growin hydro. And believe me, i wanna "Move on up" to a Dwc or Ebb n Grow system, but right now i got another few months in this shithole im livin in, n then its off to rentin a house where i can blow out the brains of the basement, and deck the motherfucker out. I already got the dro systems picked out for the basement (either gonna spend the money on two of them Aeroflow 60/120 systems, or try to make a couple myself i think) , but ill be doing a smaller scale grow with hydroponics before i set anything like that up. My 600 will do the trick in makin my buds nice n swollen, n ill be happy as a pig in shit for now.

BAH!!!! its like fuckin waitin for morning on xmas eve man.
