I added my DIY water chiller yesterday. Hooked it up and hoping to see if it works properly. I'll upload pics soon.... The girls are getting too big in veg... I need to flower soooon. Im also getting air pruning and everything isnt all beautiful and white. The water filter clogs more often as well because of this.

First time posting pictures in a couple weeks... Non-HPS & Root pics coming soon!

DIY Mini Fridge/Water chiller. The water pump SLOWLY moves the nutrient solution through the 100' of garden hose which is contained within the fridge. Those attempting to re-create this... dont. Honestly just buy the water chiller if your system is over or around 40gal.

Currently in the middle of construction. Drywall is about to go up on those 3 lonely studs just for light proofing purposes. Ghetto rigged some clones together by the water chiller with a 125w CFL. First time growing in this space, everything coming together slowly.

The 1st picture contains the 2 mini-jungle cats at play. Can't hate on cannabis cats, they hold it down for me when Im gone... they appreciate real cat-nip.. and they love the light/heat.

What does neem do? Nice ghetto chiller. Cats are cool. I'd never let them near the plants though. When I had one it would wanna eat it.

Neem oil is actually a gift directly from God himself. Neem oil is a naturally occurring pesticide found in seeds from the neem tree. It is yellow to brown, has a bitter taste, and a garlic/sulfur smell.

Keep getting these 2 identical problems on 2 of my 4 plants. It looks like a cal-mag/micro issue with heat stress or some Ph problem. Some leaves looked pretty awkward. No sign of bugs, eggs, or other pests. Other 2 plants seem fine. Maybe the kush is hogging up all the nutes. Gunna flush it to start 12/12 anyways and we'll see what happens. Worse case Ill go out and buy some Heavy16 to finish off the run.

Ohhhhhhh we got some expansion and progress going on now! I can't get decent pictures anymore. I completed the dividing wall between veg n flower rooms, cleaned out my whole rdwc (thank you @dbkick the buckethead vac works flawlessly for post-water pump clean up.. good idea), installed a new Vortex 6" 340-ish CFM inline exhaust fan, and completed my 24-site DIY cloner (27gal yellow tote with a few PVC pieces, sprayers, and a water pump hooked together), and got my timers ready for 12/12. Actually running 13 off / 11 on just to be safe =)

Anyone ever FIM/crop just before 12/12? Obviously this will add stress to the plant but will the plant yield as much or will it be underdeveloped?
