hogwash! anyone can do it!
i agree with that now that i can do it any way and have no trouble getting healthy roots. but, man o' man i was a full on retard for months of trouble shooting and pouring money into it. and for me it was the cycle timer. in fact i have tried recently without it and couldnt get roots just like back in the good ol days. i envy you guys 'cause i'm a slave to products now. but it works.

damn lb havent seen you in such a long time. howzit? how did the lolipop project go from a while back? still stickin with it or on to bigger and better things?

HARVESTED:

120 grams dry. .3 grams per watt. Pretty light but the next run will be better. WhiteBerry is not a big yielder anyway. Making changes to light and ventilation configuration.

yea, smoking bud isnt the addiction. growing and buying grow gear IS! but fuck it i like spending money and buying gadgets. i just put down some bread to buy 4 more recycle timers.

i've been okay bugs, how about yourself? i've been around was at another site for a minute, but they are looney over there

and yep still lollipopping, the only way to get max yield far as im concerned

only way to go in SOG ops especially

i havent got my cab into perpetual swing, but it will be though.

for right now im in the darkroom tent with an aeroponics system and 1000watter all lollipops will be soon to come

Okay on the subject of lollipopping, can someone reassure me that its okay to take the entire lower third off my plants? I want to do it, but its so counterintuitive.
Has anyone done side-by-side testing to see what, if any, the difference in yield will be?

yea thas why the lower leaves and branches are so small anyway, the light penetration is little to nothing down there. cutting the lower 1/3rd is almost like a jumpstart of new life to the top. all the hormones and shit move towards/go towards top growth.

besides, single cola buds are the easiest to trim. i love it. and mainstem bud if there was any theory on better bud and where it comes from, i dont see why it wouldnt be the main stalk bud...lol

well my roots r showing at about an inch and I plan on planting into hydroton tomorrow.
I wanna veg for a day or 2, should I just use veg nutes or can I use flowering nutes while vegging? so I dont have to change the res in a day or 2:)

oh btw, does anybody else here flood with coco? and/or coco croutons?

i use canna coco as my medium and love it. as far as the coco croutons, i just brought them to replace hydroton's job. the little clay balls are so NOT inconspicuous and they get lost.

i love my coco and crouton combo, hell i love coco period.

and i can flood once a day as well

Have you ever had A mold issue? I have been told that the coco will grow mold since is always moist! I was curious about them I am using the hydrotron and I think I am in love..... I used to use rockwool and just the disposal suck'd.

mold? no mold here. Coco is a hydroponic medium

furthermore, coconut coir fibers have a natural occurring Trichoderma. It biologically controls certain root rots and pathogens.

and for your comment about disposal with rw, that is why i never used rw, that and because rockwool is just a mess and it fluctuates pH.

btw, did you know that coco is reusable? recycleable? yes i feed my coco enzymes (Cannazym at the moment) and it eats the dead root matter and encourages more sexier roots. some say you should double dosage when reusing the medium, but i havent seen any difference

pics in case you needed (i currently am using my aero for flowering and my prop rack combines drip, hybrid aero and ebb and flow).... my sog perpetual cab i built from scratch is not in full swing, however i just got the mother side straightened out...so no flowering pics for now incase you want flowering pics of the ebb and flow, you know why there isnt any

(all clickable to expand)

mother and daughter chamber (yea i need to make a stand for the fan, as i dont like the uncovered wood in there


mini me bonsai mothers (just experiment to test the rig after i built it and see how good the coco croutons would work

same caption as above

the previous pic were the after pics of taking clones, these are the before. keep in mind the ebb and flow custom isnt that big, it sits on a prop rack that i modded that holds 4 shelves

experiment over, taking them out. hella success!

all the roots...now you can pick and pull, but fuck that, i just fed them cannazym (them being coco croutons)

i had room to fit a super skunk clone that i wanted to veg out before i flowered it (why the roots are not as long, but as you see they still tried in less than 2 weeks to go deep down for real.

same caption as above

nice new setup man!!!

i think imma finish putting together the flowering chamber sometime this week or next


4 different res & trays with a 1k watter all stuffed in, 2 week harvest rotation (AL B. Fuct's version, i just shrunk it down to cab size :D :hump: )



i already put the panda film up, and the drawer slides. imma attach the drawer slides to that panda film'd 'tray' that is holding the flood tables/trays. this will enable me to pull out and have easier access.

the 'red paint looking stuff' is not paint, its redgard. its a waterproofer

i built that cab from scratch, starting with building a frame outta 2x4, then sheeting with 1/4 osb on the inside and 1/2 osb for sheeting outside, not to mention having polyshield insulationfoam between the walls and having whole cab waterproofed just about using the red gard.... and multiple other stuff. i have all the build pics and stuff. i had like a 20 page build thread on another site, but i dont fuck with those looneys no more....i still have the build pics though, might start another thread up here or something.



as far as strains, yes imma strainwhore ...i have quite a bit

at the moment im working with white russian, powerplant, superskunk, alpha diesel, hashberry. ill be starting more genes soon to establish mothers for the cab, i already have 3 different genes in the cab now

That cab is nice!!!! I have Northern lt's #7, Super skunk, Diesel berry, and A kush plant in soil. I have new mothers going in DWC bucket's now, one of each of the soil mothers along with LSD (lemon sour deisel), and A blue berry! I can't wait to flower out the soil mother's. I just need to get A new 1000w when it comes time for that.
