i'd be happy to believe that i had ever achieved intelligent dark humor (or even basic intelligence )before my imminent demise.

okay... you asked for it... (PICTURE BOMB !!)



(2) 2' x 8' DIY ebb 'n flow tables and (12) flouro's, 6 mil. plastic sheeting



the two 5' by 10' gulleys on top of some newly insulated flooring (to reduce radiant heat from ballasts below the house)

10'

10' by 13' pond liner placed over the gulleys





(next run i'll only have 24 plants spread out in each gulley)



Other than the updated video of the Ebb 'N Flow(s) in my Sig... that should about bring you up to speed over in my neck of the woods.
.

that is fucking bad ass. and u probably built the big flower pans, for wut a bonicare 4x4 pan runs outa wood and good old plastic, and some bulk head fittings. shit man, those are some big ebb and flos . jealous i am. i love to see d i y commercial shitz. U should veg a few longer and throw some unsightly monsters in there. u surly have the room. ill watch ur thread so i can see the flood in action.

2day i had off do to bad furniture delivery scheduling. ive been contemplating shit nostop. the real stopper is $$. so ive held off on buying true supplies , lights air/water pumps/nutes/containers/mlc controller. i need bout 20 days to get another perpetual crop down and wut not. bud i do have 2 cloners =50 sites. rooting on the daily. dont want all of em going into dirt. so i made a cheapo aero unit.

I used a new 18gal rubbermaid tote.....on sale...... 6.99
396 gallon submersible............................................35.00
double sided male 1/2 threads.................................. .89
rainbird 2.5 inch 360 degree sprinkler head...............2.99
15 3inch netpost.........................................................6.50
2inch 7/8 hole saw (now i have every size)...............15.00

grand total 80 bucks or so. i used the plastic circles i cut out, for algie blockers ontop of hydroton i already had. the sprayer head is an alternitive to building a pvc manifold with misters/sprayers. I had my doubts , possilbly that the spray would be too harsh. it doesnt seem to be any more aggresive than my easy cloner. just doesnt cover the 3 center netpots as it is a 360 pattern. i put 3 rooted blueberrys in just now, after ph'ing and nuting rez to liking. i will get pics shortly. in the MH veg room, with cfl directly above. will see how they fair and ill load it full. 2-3 week veg and off to the bud room

heres couple shots of the veg area..

hell ya guys shit look good and clean. should do well as you both allways do..

nice job bro.. looks good... can't wait to see how it works out for ya!

fert managment has made a huge difference . no matter wut i mixing my new milwakee ppm meter is helpin a shit ton. not burning shit or underfeeding them no more. big diff and its showing.

heres some shots of the bud room. no my proudest achievment but its perpetual and gettting better. i put two mothers in a 18gallon tote, lined with hydroton and sunshine soil, and flipped to the bud room

yep your shit is looking great bro..

things look good bro... in the reality of things your still working out kinks here and there.. you undertook a fairly large project and have a shit ton of other things to juggle as well.. i think you are doing just fine bro!! you should feel good... i said it before, things can only get better and better.. as long as you are pushing yourself and your girls to be the best you/they can be, then you should be very happy... keep it up brotha!!


sorry to hear about your ballast MG.. hope it is something small like that and not something that will cause you to need a new one all together **knocks on wood**... anyone know where that expression came from??

ya thanks for the support SS>MG. i cant wait for cycles mid winter.

I think this is the additional veg light i want. i would keep this lamp inches from vegging clones, and i think would be very productive.

and better product
http://www.hydrofarm.com/pb_detail.php?itemid=9011

i already put her in 420 w t5. 8 bulbs. got a good deal. can be linked to 2 more. pretty sick unit. creats no heat. got her running in another veg room . so 2 veg rooms now.

i love those ballasts... still think you should have got steped up version.. but it really isnt economical in your application... you'll have to post a few pics when you get some time bro!.

yes i will. thanks for looking SS. yes bro , i would have loved to have ur HO floros, it just wasnt in the budget. trust me when im finallly done ill have a pawn shop full of shit. i took my aero unit i built, pulled the plug on her cause she leaked. so i took the 400 gpm pump out, and put the 2 180 gpm pumps from my two 3 site 5gal buckets, and created a double pump 12 manifold (12 site) bubbleponics system, and she dont leak. my 6 clones started on 9/30 in bubbleponics 5gallon bucket(s), got striped as i said of pumps 2 weeks in , and is just dwc now. so these 6 plus the 12 in the new system, plus like 15 dirt clones sit under the floro. in the other veg room clones pushing 1 month in dirt 15 of em sit directly under the 400hid along with 2 mothers. there also surrounded by 8 cfls in a circle around them. then theres 2 cloners, and of coarse roughtly 21 in budd currently, and 8 of which come out this week. hmmmmm

damn bro.. been busy... thats a lot of shit to keep up with!! i'll be right there bustin ass in no time soon!! i'm getting excited.. but thats niether here nor there..

you are going to have a crazy collection of growing equipment in the end for sure bro... at least you can always find a use for it all ya know..

just a bit

heres some pics of a recent *last night .. harvest. modest. probably round 8-12 zips...

looks damn good bro... good enough to smoke!! LOL i love that huge cola in your hand... if you need someone to try it out... ya know, make sure its prime... well i'm your man...

i was impressed . those trees were only 1ft tall to 1ft and a half when flipped. def not from clone to 12 12 right away but tiny indeed. i got at least a Z per. of FIRE
