Come on Jozi, the OT is sweet! I hear you on the cleanliness too. I used to be stupid clean but I just don't have time to operate like that anymore. I keep it clean but I don't spend nearly as much time trying to keep it sterile. Right now my fungus gnats are going apeshit, need to wipe them somehow.
They don't give me OT, just less sleep. lol. I'm having more bug and mold problems now that it isn't sterile. But some of those nematodes would do the trick.

Whodat, can you believe they want to charge me 40 bucks for the same amount of nematodes at my local shop? I like the local shop guy, but I would rather take the 4+ hour round trip to Discount Hydro. Or much preferably their competitive neighbor; CalWest. Those guys hook me the fuck up! Nothing but smiles and handshakes over there, genuine people.

I actually dont like the people at the shop I get them at lol I do 90% of my shopping at a shop 15min farther away just because I like the people.
40 bucks for 5 million is outrageous! It wouldn't surprise me if someone willing to rip people off that bad will sell you a dead pack thats been sitting around for too long. You can probably find them on the net and get next day shipping and it would still be less than 40 bucks,, Im just guessing that though lol Iv not looked at the prices online.

It's because he is flat broke and isn't doing a good job of bringing in new business. I seriously feel for him, and try to help him, but he needs to be more open to advise.

His weed is fucking dank as fuck though, even though his plants look like shit, his final product is amazing. Blows my mind... but I guess with 30 years of experience you can grow just about anything, anyway you want it.

But I wouldn't drive the 4+ hours to save the money unless I really loved the people at Calwest, and I do, heart goes out to them. They are doing very very very well and that makes me happy. I love the people at DH too, they have treated me very well. But at Calwest I feel like family.

Support C.A.P., support American Made Grows! Local business creating jobs and great equipment, I fucking love it. Hydrofarm sold out to K-Mart!! Boooooo!!!! That's why my hydrofarm shirt is the newest jizzrag under my bed. Or was that too much info? lol!!

Nematodes? What kind of insects will these take care of?
 
Whoda... your journal is AWESOME man!

I read through the whole thing and its been by far the most visualy jaw dropping to say the least. Theres alot of info and great grows on this site but after seeing yours it makes most of the others look kinda amateur... no offence to the others.

Im kinda new to this so im obsorbing info like a sponge right now. I was hoping you could help me with some info that im pretty sure you've posted already just cant find it. Could you give me some details on your wet system you have there.(not even sure the name of it) lol? How high the water level is in the bucket and What nuts you use again and how often you replace them etc. Its an amazing job you've done with it and im thinking of trying it myself thanks to you.

Also im curious if you run your CO2 when the lights are off and if there is any advantage to it?

Keep up the great work man!

..................................................................................................:eyesmoke:

Veg is rocking and rolling. I added co2, just on a timer, about a week ago and can def see an increase in growth rate :eyesmoke:
Got a little of everything in there lol
Sour D in the top hydro getting ready to take the ?purps place when she comes down.


AK xplanted today, cant wait to take another shot at her :-)
The clones are kinda weak though :-( used some older cloning solution.


BnS day 63 :eyesmoke::eyesmoke::eyesmoke: I cant wait to smoke it! The smell of the drying sample bud is incredibly DANK.



Space Bomb day 50 :eyesmoke::eyesmoke::eyesmoke:
Not much smell to it but the bud looks fantastic.


?P day 52 and getting noticeably riper every day turning more pinkish purple on the buds.:eyesmoke::eyesmoke::eyesmoke:



And the Space bomb in the scrog on day 16... Once again the 2 crappy looking ones were xplanted from soil to hydro in a pinch because of a herm.
:roll::neutral::eyesmoke:

Haha! You've fucked yourself, you are going to be trimming until September! I hope you have friends that are suckers for scissor hash. Man oh man does that BnS look danky stanky, and fatter than any nugs I have seen on RIU in a while. But doesn't look like a hash making plant, those leaves look pretty smooth. Or is it just because all the trichs on the leaves have been gobbled up by those massively fat Kongers?

I'm bummed out by this gap in my garden, I have at least 4-5 weeks until my next crop. And my last crop was only a few plants. I accidentally put a bunch of male clones in the garden I was saving for a breeding project, and then a few clones got mixed up with a strain I was throwing away, so now I have to throw away those plants because they are mold whores. Sucks.

But I'm finally growing outside. When are you going to throw some beans outside? You got to get into the spirit of the season!

Nematodes? What kind of insects will these take care of?
I just googled "what beneficial nematodes eat gardening" and this is what came up


http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=what+beneficial+nematodes+eat+gardening&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=

This is from one of the first sites that popped up.



Live Beneficial Nematodes
Beneficial Nematodes are microscopic warriors. Our Nematodes will eat soil boring pests in your garden such as flea larvae, cutworms, weevils, whitegrubs, moth larvae, rootworms, borers, and much much more. Beneficial Nematodes do not harm other beneficial insects, worms, plants, pets, or people. They are very effective, and easy to use.




Storage
These Beneficial Nematodes can be stored in a refrigerator at 38F (4C) for at least 20 months with full potency. After it is applied to the soil, these Nematodes can survive two summers and one winter with temperatures below 0F (-17C).

Use
1 pint contains 7 million nematodes.
For use in soil: mix nematodes with soil, or peat moss, etc. For use on boring insects: dilute with water.
For pests spending all or part of their life in, or on soil, apply Nematodes as a mulch, as a top dressing, in seed furrows, or in transplant holes at planting. No expensive equipment needed.
For lawn insects use as a topdressing, then water in. Use 1 pint to spot treat 370 sq. ft. infested with white grubs.
For boring insects mix Nematodes with water, pour or spray the mixture.
Sprayers are also suitable to use. These Nematodes will hunt down and kill pests in their burrows as no chemical can.
These Nematodes are compatible with botanical and biological insecticides and can be applied during the fall, spring, or summer, any time soil is not frozen. They work on overwintering pest insects while they are in soil, bark, or ground litter.
Indoors: use these Nematodes to fight pests like black vine weevils, fungus gnats and their larvae on houseplants or hot house vegetables. Spread it on top of the soil, or use it in potting soil.
M0re than 230 pests are susceptible to these Beneficial Nematodes. Based on field experiments, we recommend them to control the following:

artichoke moth larvae

fungus gnat larvae

banana moth larvae

greater peach tree borers

black currant borers

gypsy moth larvae

black vine weevils

Iris borers

cabbage root maggots

Japanese beetle larvae

carpenterworms

mole crickets

codlingmoth larvae

onion maggots

corn earworm

pine weevils

pine weevils

poplar clearwing borers

corn rootworms

raspberry crown borers

Cranefly (tipulid) larvae

Thanks for the kind words SN.
I dont run co2 at night.
Its an rdwc system.
The water level is about 2 inches up into the bottome of the net pot.
Used rubber grommets for all fittings.
Bottom infeed is 1/2"
Drain set to the level described abouve^
three 1" drains on each res. 2 res' by the way. Not including the main res.
3" main drain.
something like 476 gph pump for each res.
LOTS of air through stones... Air pump is set outside the room because I want o2 not co2 in my water.



Look'n real good, Whodat seems to get better with each chop my brother!!
Thanks Stank! These seem to be working out :bigjoint:

Right on look what type of purple strain are you running in the pic and what is the ratio of plants that actually turn purple?
lol idk anymore :lol: everything in my room is turning purple. I did slightly turn the ac down to 73 from 86-87 a few days ago to kinda hint to em that its closing time haha. Seems natural :-)

Im getting pretty good at trimming and am not daunted by the task ahead at all :blsmoke: All of the sample buds Iv taken have been realatively easy to trim.
Im sure BnS buds will make some amazing hash. It reeks and the smells have carried over to the taste in the sample quite nicely :-) so it should make some bomb hash.
Iv never grown outside before, I cant do it here really.

All i can say is WOW
Holly cow! :lol: stanks

No biggie SN,
the ducting is a little long because I had it lower at one point. I might need to drop it again so I'll keep it just incase.
The pic does kinda make it look like its in the way but from my point of view its as close to the wall as it can get lol
It gives perspective in the pics though so never mind...lol
That a 6" duct btw ;-)
