BTW, is that a piece of wooden doweling in the end of the PVC tube for fitting the plate? If so, I don't think that will last too long being submerged frequently... and may be a breeding point for anaerobic pathogens.

I think the PVC pipe alone, just jammed into the pellets, will make a dandy stake all by itself.
GRRRRRRRRR :wall::wall:

sorry, sparky. :(

You're on a very familiar learning curve, one which I skidded off a number of times over the years. It's hard to predict the effects of everything you might do in a grow op... until you've run a grow op for a while. I guess that's why I'm here, trying to straighten out the learning curves a bit for other folx.

Thanks Al But i bet you can tell i don't want to believe what your saying for no other reason than just because. Kinda of a bad habit i have being like that. I am going to wait and watch on the ones i just did i really dont want to disturb them again. But i will figure out another way for the others. Just pissed and the time and money into those kick ass worthless things!!


Oh and i made a dryer using a light bulb as a heat source. Wanna see?

I am posting this here for no other reason as to show that if you DONT read and research properly you end up making mistakes costing you time and effort.

When i first started this i thought i wanted to use RW so i started my seeds and transferred them into 6in RW and stuffed them in pellets. Does the Mr green on Utube ring a bell???

When after doing my reading and research i soon realized that i had really screwed up. You cant move them!!! I did move them twice and luckily never had any issues. I don't know why but i didn't. I needed to start new mothers but i couldn't use RW again so i HAD to transfer them into buckets so they could go into the tub watering every 2 hours.

The pictures you will see are my mothers after i took clones and transferred to the buckets. I believe they will survive i think they are just in shock from being moved but i might have to wait an extra week for the clones.

Its OK to be a newbie it not OK to not do your research plan your grow completely before starting or end up like me with a newb mistake that could even cost you your grow.

I wouldn't love it, especially not if I had to run that op!



Flood systems are much, much more practical for a SoG op.

The tall plants are sparky's mums, which look like they are due for retirement and replacement with one of their progeny.

Its been awhile since i have posted any pics of my grow. I think since the last time i have tried to kill them by not plugging back in my pumps after a night of cleaning remembering that i had done it 15 hrs later......... so that has put me a bit behind on the harvest

I really don't know why but my plants are really tall and seem to be taking a very long time to finish. I am growing WW but i am beginning to wonder. I have pulled my original mothers keeping 3 out of the 5 best females out of the 7 very original ones.

Still waiting for final smoke and weight to figure out which one i will keep. I think that for a first time grower i might have pulled this off. There have been many trials and missteps along the way but over all i am pleased.

I will be sure to update this thread when its harvest time with weights and such.
