      I watered the bloom girls with just water I spent the morning trying to figure out how to wire a t5 light ballast ,its different from the original but good for 2,4 or 8 lights I have 8 lights so I tried to just wire it red to red black to black that way nope didn't light ,then I tried several different wiring combos ,so then I took off the light sockets to see how they wired it (they used all the same wire then changed it after the socket housing well I was able to tell what wires went where wrote them down then reinstalled them, The new one had a schematic on it for all the different wiring combos ,I disconnected all the wiring and rewire the light according to the schematic no joy damn then I figured that maybe I damaged the ballast so I installed a second ballast nope at that point I threw up my hands and grabbed the old ballast and i'm going to try and call growers house today to see if I can get them to work if not Tika I will be visiting shortly cause I'm going to fly out to CA and shove the ballasts up the techs ass side ways

        Electrical work might not be your forte LOL. I don’t think that something you really want to mess around with Be careful OJH

      Thanks Paracesus I try to be LOL120V isn't to bad after you've been hit with 600 dc volts lol electronic/mechanics/pneumatic/and hydraulics are all in my wheelhouse I worked on the orange line trains in Boston for 24 years and was the best trouble shooter there I think I found the problem I have 120 volts on the common wire coming out of the ballast . I checked everything rewired it a couple more times wrote out the schematic and wired just as it said then checked input all good then out put all the sockets are good , so then I started to check grounds and poof there 120 volt on the common area now I know that there should be a difference of potential between the feed wire and common but there shouldn't be any on the common between it and ground ,

      now on to important things I harvested two kush bombs and 1 northers lights , The kush bombs where two of the oldest plants from bloom well leaving them in the bloom room was a waste of time and money they did fill out a little so I got some nice nugs from the tops but mostly everything else was light and airy the Northern Light was rock hard with golf ball size nugs and came in with a wet weight of 180 grams so it will almost be 2 ounces oh ya its an auto, I have two more photos and 2 more autos to do today after I cook clean and help out with the meal lol

        lol good one Paracelsus Me Too

      Saturday I went down cellar and had the two birds on my shoulders forgot they were their and they didn't make a sound lol but they were really looking around , I took them back upstairs before I started the green one does not like sticks or anything that looks like a stick we think she was abused when young so if I picked up my watering scoop she would of freaked out and I would of probably got bit

      The plant in the 1st photo is a pineapple chunk mother plant a buddy gave me to bloom hes hydro so he gives me the plant and I give him back a clone works for me .I took the second pick to show how tall it is I'm 6 foot 3

      I have 2 more 14 week photos to harvest and 3 afgan kush ryders to harvest as well today as well as water the Autos and Veg room

      The bloom room is really starting to bulk up I have to run a couple of strings to attach my yoyos to to hold the buds up and I think thats a good problem to have lol

        I love big plants, I had an 8 footer once, outside of course. Ive got a pic of a friend standing next to it with farmer coveralls and a pitchfork. Kinda like the American Gothic picture.

        the harvesting went really quick I do have to say that if you ever lock out your plants and cant flush them for a month chop them down and start over , I have it all written down downstairs lol but I think the yield was as follows

        Photos thc bomb 247 grams
        Dina fem critacal 160 grams
        Autos all afgankush ryders
        first one grown in 5 gallon pot with kind soil 161 grams ,these nugs where hugh bigger than golf balls
        second one in green fiels by roots organic 122 grams also grown in a 5 gallon pot
        the third was grown in a 3 gallon pot was 63 grams all of the weight is wet
        I am not impressed with any of it, the plants that I left in bloom are amazing they are filling out great
        so this part I like I started at noon and was finished at 130 not to shabby but I think real plants that have a yield of 4 to 10 zs will take a little longer lol

        Love the pic of you and your bird buds.

      Today I am planning on transplanting some tutankhammons into there forever homes Im kinda excited about it because I'm experimenting with adding air to my grow I posted that I purchased some air injector for soil well these are the plants that are getting to try it . I will post some picture while doing it so all can see this is either going to be really awesome or a complete bust lol

        this is great ive been wondering about them since you posted you were going to try them
        im thinking along the same lines
        so keep us posted

      1st picture is the insert to the pot the rest are self explanatory , I thought the roots looked good ,I had room to put 3 in the auto room and 1 in veg room ,I only had enough room to do 4 Plants , I measured there height first was 10 ,9,8,8 inches (I thought I took pictures but apparently not lol,) I used new coco that I just mixed with 30 ml cag mag and 15 ml hydro guard , the plants were all wet so no watering for them I also transplanted the last to tuts into 2 gallon pots just to give the roots some room , I planted the clones my friend gave me into gallon pots ,as soon as there is room in veg tent they will go into 7 gallon pots, the plants in veg room now have another week in veg ,I think. all of these plants were the ones that got attacked so they are all but one manifolded one way or another so they are not as tall as I would like

      Heres a question in your experiences how tall do manifolded plants get .my friend is growing tutankhamons to and his are in lights one of them he gave up on and it went over his light and is hanging down the other side lol. he also said he wasn't bending them he snapped them and 2 days later in the lights they were so I dont want to get in that situation lol .right now they are about 14 inches high, they can get up to 5 feet in the bloom room, I just want them not to lose yield because I put them in bloom to early

      and last but not least I planted 11 white widow and dropped 10 original skunk

      the air injector is made from weeper hose and the little plastic connectors if interested I have all the parts to make new ones .One of the 4 way connectors for the top hoses was missing I wrote to manufacturer and no response so I found them on amazon. I figured if I had to buy that I might as well buy everything else so if anyone is interested pm me and I'll post the list for you

      it was raining so hard I had to get up and check to see if a tornado was come by because it got so loud lol

        There is a tornado or hurricane funnel coming up the east coast. That list you just rattled off is amazing I don’t know how you keep track of it all. Respect sir nothing but respect.

          all 4 of the plants were a inch taller yesterday morning ,I thinks its one of those things that your never sure about until you see a difference

          heres the conclusion of the ballast story I'm returning the ballast i Bought, also returning the whole fixture will get store credit for it and I bought a new one because I need two real soon, so before I put it all back together I took the one out of veg tent and took it a part to change one of the ballast on it , took it all apart and damn it had four ballasts ( theirs a chinaman laughing his ass off for fuckin with the american lol) so I cleaned it up put it back together and now have a 6 banger light for veg , as soon as the outdoor plants go in the ground I will swap out the veg light for new t5 fixture

          the buds that are drying were down to 43 grams from a hundred so today they should be ready to jar
          the wind is blowing so hard its shaking the house ( it was built around 1820 all post and beam)

          I also was able to put some twine up so I could use some yoyo's to hold the buds up in the bloom room ,That is one of the things that will make you smile seeing buds get so heavy they cant hold themselves up,

          I took a look at the pictures and in the 2nd one on the left side on floor there is what looks to be a cord or hose but neither of them are used in bloom room so its a complete mystery to me lol

            haha I just think of them as workers like when I was a boss lol . I do have to admit 18 plants in the bloom room was way to much couldn't focus on one plant , I will be going to 6 plant grows after I get these cleand up

          these are pictures of the air injector plants sorry about the leds I turn the flash on but didn't work the one in normal light is the smallest

          My project yesterday was to make a tea maker ,I used to make tea by just stiring it but I got some that was made in a votec tea maker and wow did the plants like it so I decided to make one pretty simple idea was easy to do only had one major problem with it and that was when I went to use it you see you get the lift for the tea by putting air stones into the vertical tubes on maker so you can see it was a major problem my air stone is sitting on top of the pipe just a little to big lol

            Not if it’s fit together properly, if you bought a kit it shouldn’t be hard to replace the pvc parts in a box store get the pvc cutting tool too.
            Just running water Won’t be hot enough to kill bacteria that is anaerobic you’ll need a diluted bleach solution. I posted a video on my thread for you. From what I understand AACT made from compost should not be used after being brewed more than 48 hours too.

            Paracelsus I took a good look at it yesterday and I think if I cut the legs after the lift tube I can put in coupling then every thing else I can get to , I saw a mess after I used the tea and I dumped in 5 gallons of water although I was able to get sides clean couldn't get those bottom tubes clean

            I know you’ll figure it out. I’m just concerned while working out the kinks you will lose a plant or two.

            Out of curiosity did you see the video I posted for you with the top dollar vortex tea brewer. It might give you some ideas about adjusting your design Visually

          well it runs and works great its making terpin tea right now , then I have some stump tea and worn castings i'm in tea making heaven lol

          the babies are going to my outdoor grow thread just posted them here with out thinking lol
