lorfl! that b funi
Ok, looks like I'm about ready to move the last of the girls out to the greenhouse for this grow. The hydro has been at 50 ppm for a couple days now, I'd say it's almost done.
I got one Jack in the cab with spidermites and looks like she is stressed a bit. I think I will toss her and flower out the master Kush instead. She is lookin sweet. I already have five good size silver jacks and the mom. I figure I will put all six against the back wall and hang the five G13 and Master Kush in the front for a total of twelve, if that shelf is big enough.
Yea, I'm pretty sure I am going to get clones for this summers grow. I found a guy on Craigslist who is in Santa Cruz. He has Casey Jones clones along with other killer strains and said he can have teens ready for me just about any time of the year. Gotta love that.
The stuff drying is just about there, I got the headband in a paper bag now, cut off the larger Hindu Kush skunk buds off the colas to help them dry. stems still no snapy so this will help. The trichs didn't ripen any on the pile of buds I had out there. I guess I didn't do it right.
I got the gang valve and hosing to run co2 today. I'm gonna have it at three points along the roof and I want separate hosing so it gets dispersed as even as possible. I plan on using it primarily to kill the bugs unless I can seal this up and cool it off well enough.
Should have them in there tomorrow.

Hell yea she was, I remember standing there looking up at those frosty colas and thinking, "I've never seen so many fucking trichomes"
And I got zero mold out of those monster buds. She was right next to two Blue dreams that had spider mites, (One I had to toss) she had some but not as many and it didn't seem to affect her at all. Sure impressed the hell out of me. Then to top it off, the smoke hits you like train wreck but I can still think. That was my favorite until I grew this.
I went to pull the hydro and before I did I checked the ppms and they went up to 80ppm.
Not gonna chance it, I re filled with r/o at 10 ppm and gonna check them tomorrow.
I got weight on the soil girls.
Hindu Kush skunk, 3 plants 2 foot tall came in at 176 gm.
Headband in soil 20 gm.
The last one that I piled was the nitrogen def skunk, I don't have weight yet, gonna let her hang a bit, she looks like about an oz. that would be 8 zips total for the soil girls.

Hey Cruzer,
I have a quick question for you,
I should be harvesting in the next few days so i started to flush last night.
I accidentally conected the pump directly into the power board instead of onto the timer.
So i had the tray flooded for about 3 hours before i realised what i had done.
How do you think it will effect the grow/harvest ( If at all? )....
P.S - I follow your thread closely ( Just staying quite in the background....)

For an encore we got the hydro girls, commin right up!thats great man, and thats using mostly the sun for lighting, BRAVO
I think you actually did the girls a favor giving them a soak like that. All girls love baths. They will be fine.
Riddle me has a thread about it, "making it rain" its about almost drowning your plant right before harvest on purpose.
How about that? you did a good thing.
Thanks for following along.
So like I was thinking about odor control for next summer and started looking at fans and carbon filters. Dam $220 for a 8" Vortex fan and a couple hundred for a carbon filter and that's the small one. I figured I will find a used fan on craigslist and make a filter then I found exactly what I needed for $270. Called him, offered him $250 and I will come get it right now. He went for it. I got an 8" vortex 747 cfm fan and a can-fan 100 the 39" long one. Fucking heavy man, almost as big as my water softener salt storage tank. Gonna cut me a hole and mount it outside the back wall of the greenhouse. Odor problem solved plus extra ventilation for this summer.
Here it is, that white prefilter will be removed, This guy was sucking through it, I'm gonna remove that and cut it down and put it on the inside then blow through it. He only ran it for about 6 months, I think its got like two inches thick of carbon all the way around, hell that's $60 worth of carbon alone.
Here's the plan,
I want a tee in it so I can divert the air when they are not stinking. Make the filter last longer.
Ah, I see another stoned trip to home depot in my immediate future.

Thanks people, Yea when we met he had the thing standing up in the back of his truck, I looked at it and thought "Holy shit, that ought to do it!" if I was buying new it would be like half this size because of the cost so yea, I'm stoked about that.
Checked the hydro this morning, it ran all day yesterday. Today its at 20 ppm so I don't think the girls have any excess salt in them. Looks like they are coming down... Get that new shelf up, I need to get water to it too. Plumb the scrubber and get the co2 lines up there. Install the light mover motor, it came yesterday. Dam I got lots to do.
no pressure on pics lol

I thought the filters were designed to have the air pulled through otherwise you fan can suck stuff up and get clogged. Kind of like my floor fan with my long haired dogs; constantly have to clean the blades. also any particles that get sucked in will lodge inside the filter. I like the idea for the side vent to extend the filter life! I'll have to keep that trick in mind for when I have a need for it.
Can't wait to see next summers greenhouse grow!
