New Grow room

[oldjarhead100]

not much to say about the bloom room did a little more trimming I have one plant thats a beast in the back of scrog and its a pita tough to reach but we will get their

[oldjarhead100]

I had to do a emergency flush on the girls boy did we have some fun its not that easy to get my scoop in the back to water those girls and to do it quite a few time in a day was a PITA but its done and the girls are much happier maybe now the short ones will take off

[oldjarhead100]

boy did that bring them back to there glory ,i tie them down and next day there 6 inches high again they are in week 2 of bloom so maybe Ill let them go for the last week of stretch during the 3 week defole I think i'm going to take almost everything below the scrog ,depends if I can reach the back of the scrog in the front I can see all the way to the pot ,in the back not so much , I am absolutely only growing 8 plants total at a time from now on ,I need a little more room to water trim stuff like that lol, it was nice to be able to fit them all in in an emergency ,I think the overall grow will be better if I only have 8 or 5 in one row depending on size

Happy your plants are singing oldjarhead100
I think you are going to have to look into a drip system. Makes Coco so much easier!! I set up the drip part of mine for about $100, (The drain part was another $120) would only be marginally more for a bigger system. I will work on my post about it this weekend.

Good to get the bug out!

Sometimes I manage to plant way lots of something cause I get gung ho, then I realize just how much work I got myself into, but then it's at least easier to restrain myself after that and grow less.
At least for a little while!

[oldjarhead100]

Off topic here I'm having breakfast with my birds ,one is having frosted flakes ,the other one is my thief if she can steal it shes happy so shes been after my problamo pepper and bacon quiche,
,she doesn't eat alot but I have to worry about her pooping lol and if I push her off she yells at me like I'm stealing from her .Now they switched the thief was frosted flakes and hootie wants quiche. F it i'm going outside lol

[Paracelsus]

Trix are for kids you silly rabbit real men eat quiche!

[oldjarhead100]

Tuesday was the start of the 3rd full week in bloom so I stopped tucking stuff in and around will take pictures today but they were all stretching towards the lights I hope these tuts stop streching after third week my buddy says his never stopped we shall see

[oldjarhead100]

Its pretty full areas where it isn't are way back towards the wall and the plants in those corners are shorter but they are getting their ,I just found out yesterday that the light over the pineapple chunk was on 24/7 for two weeks so I may have extended the grow by two weeks dam

[Campesino]

Oh wow, so they haven’t even started the stretch!

[GreenhouseEffect]

Oh no. Shit, I did something like that with my last batch, bunch of light leaks from heaters and stuff( stupid indicator lights so you know there"on") 2-3 weeks before I realized what was goin happening, and why they weren't really flowering yet!!

[oldjarhead100]

so the PC went back to veg and the tut never came out of veg so I tucked all the stems under the scrog again sure doesn't look like it though, its raining out today so I'm going to take advantage and do my 3 week defole today , I was smart enough to put the smallest plants on the ends of the scrog, so the ends of the net are a little bare maybe with the 3 week delay they will catch up a little and fill it out

[Campesino]

Yeah, if they are just now starting the stretch, that is going to be a very full scrog!
I agree that the droop is prob result of dropping EC and heavy watering - not a problem.

Love the ladybug! How do they do inside?!!

[GreenhouseEffect]

Love seeing the Lady in there!!
Some times I wish I could grow inside, just so I could release lady bugs in the house. Did that one time, and they all loved my brothers bedroom a lot, it drove him nuts! Never came into mine though, or bothered me, just him. gonna get him a plush lady bug one of these days, just to see the look on his face.

[oldjarhead100]

Campesino they love it as long as there is food so if your using them as maintenance like I am they tend to disappear in a week or so,
@Greenhouse I would get him that lady bug lol

[allmyown]

Dammit oldjarhead100 , man those pictures are a beautiful sight! Just awesome, I see even a little beetle thoght your plants was awesome LOL you guys are the masters that keep me reaching for better!

[oldjarhead100]

allmyown that is a lady bug I had issues with affids from using dirt so I dumped 500 lady bugs in to prevent any from the bloom room so far so good

[oldjarhead100]

well if I didn't kill them I think the girls are really going to stretch now I took all the growth under the scrog ,as best as I could I was trying to get a buddy over to take a picture of me doing the back row ,all you could see was my ass sticking out, I've wanted to do that since they went into bloom and since they are back on week one , I had 1 real short girl so I cut everything but 3 main stems to see if she would grow up into the scrog cause if she doesn't she's going to be shaded out from doing anything so I figured why not ,watering was alot easier being able to see what I'm doing lol, Great way to spend a rainy day

[Campesino]

Nice lollipops and yeah, I bet that back row was fun!

[oldjarhead100]

Off topic I am supposed to bring 4 flats of flowers down to the nursing home today so the elders can play in the dirt,by transplanting into a bigger pot but with the rain I dont think its going to happen today tomorrow should be better I am going to bring all the stuff anyways if it warms up who knows or maybe Ill just set it up for tomorrow

[oldjarhead100]

well Tuesday should of been the end of week three but nope had to reset the clock, I hung a 300w led over a huge pineapple chunk then when I was plugging the timer in I must of switched it to on instead of the timer the PC went back into veg and the tuts never came out of veg so I gave them grow nutes again I will for the first two weeks of veg then switch back to bloom ,maybe sooner if they start growing pistils

[Campesino]

Nothing but a speed bump... Hopefully!

[GreenhouseEffect]

Well, sorry to hear it happened, but glad to hear that I'm not the only one that has those problems with my Vedge/ flower cycles ending up opposite of my intention!!

[oldjarhead100]

It does help knowing that we all do dumb shit now and then lol

[oldjarhead100]

June first holy crap from winter to summer in one short month what happened to spring damn

I was noticing that my RH would go up to 90% so I turned the exhaust fan on 24/7 I had turned it to 12/12 with the girls in the winter for heat reasons but now I need it on 24/7 now its in the 70s I know that high but its when I'm watering and sucking out the overflow Well I think it is lol Always something new

[Campesino]

I think my exhaust fan has only been off for about 24 hours in the last 7 months!
Yeah, RH spikes when the door is open and you’re watering. But 90! I have been high RH this whole grow, but not quite that high. Of course I never turn off the fan!

[alltatup]

oldjarhead100 Shoot, this grow room isn't even a year old yet!!! You didn't have a grow going in there at this time last year. You are still in the process of fine-tuning it.

[oldjarhead100]

I have a ways to go before I break down and buy a dehumidifier but its on my mind lol

[alltatup]

I discovered that, in my climate, I had to have a big one. It has helped a lot during flower.

[stoneotter]

I put a de humidifier in last year and it's pretty amazing. By chance my sump hole is e few feet away and I use a clothes washer feed hose to direct the water to it. Set it and forget it! I'm a little anal about bud rot. But wait I've been re thinking the whole situation. A small window ac unit would get the same job done and keep the place cooler. It's always somthin!

[D.A.A.S.69]

@OldJarhead, me too, I sure wish I had one living way down here. I think I'm bout thru growing indoors, unless it's in the winter.@Alltatup loves hers . That's got to be the ticket.

[Potted]

So size does matter, my wife’s been lying to me all this time. 😢

[alltatup]

Potted Size only matters for some things: humidifiers, horse shoes, hand grenades, and buds. But that's all.

[oldjarhead100]

What would be better a dehumidifier or a small ac , I'm leaning to a small ac so it would do both cool and dehumidify but I dont know if it would pull as much moister out as I need, I would just turn it off for the summer but the Black Zombie clone made it well 5 of them had roots , 1 had nice white roots but the top of the plant is hurting , I planted it anyways to see if it recovers lol all clones have moved on to there forever homes

I will do a grow of 4 black zombies and 4 pineapple chunks with air injectors

I actually got to work on my veggie garden , we had to go get food for the pets so when we got home I said to my wife ,If I go inside I'm done so I stayed on the patio and smoked a doobie legs felt better so I was able to put in and hour or so , I had to sit and smoke another but hey we do what we have to do lol Its still better than the Opoids I was on

[BillBates]

Oh, that's for hydro? I haven't done that...yet. ...I understand the principle, though & I can see how something like that could be profoundly beneficial

[Campesino]

BillBates
Well, it is for Coco, when you are running your Coco like hydro (very frequent fertigation).

[BillBates]

Yeah, I think I'll hold off on all that for now. At least until maybe next winter. I still ain't out of the woods with the plants I've got....

[oldjarhead100]

Today I will be defole the bloom canopy there is nothing below the canopy. in order to tie the plants under the net I had to take a bunch of fan leafs so I could see the net good problem to have lol, I have it about half done from yesterday so I will finish today and maybe still have time and energy to go visit my dad

[stoneotter]

Man I love it when the scrog fills up! I have a question. Do you feed molasses through veg and flower?

[oldjarhead100]

once a week i give 2 tbls until week 7 of bloom then I bump it up to 4 tbls ,remember I use 5 gallon buckets

[stoneotter]

Thanks. BTW The tut and chunk are coming along very well. They are around 2 feet tall and getting some nice branching. WooHoo!
