Mr blbokeb’s posting pattern is certainly looking like we been hacked...

 

[2RedEyes]

This NurseLarry x Valentine I got is certainly the most aggressive thing I’ve got growing right now... I’ll post some pics after my buds get a little more buddy...

 

[St_Nick]

Anyway,,gotta save some money for a new light system i want to use. I plan on going with the SpyderX ive been reading about. Couldnt find it again, but someone here uses them. Then i gotta build me a growroom or purchase a Tent. I got some time. Besides i got enough dank in jars to last me for awhile,,and i want to look around and get to know my neighborhood.
Rosebud,,,this thread seems to be where everybody is,,so im sure ill meet plenty right here.

I just turned off my last HPS ballast 2 weeks ago. I am running all VIPARSPECTRA 600s in my grow rooms. I have 4 of the reflector series in one room and 4 PAR in the other. I outfitted one whole room for the cost of one spydrx. One light, one lb. $169 . Just sayin'.:vap-Bong_smoker:

Go Nick !-- U gonna need more jars !--

John -- Glad U got some put up ! -- I'm still working out problems and just trying different things --
I'm just starting to recover after Hurricane Harvey !-- I lost power for a week !-- Hurt me some and I was just really becoming weed independent !-- So I don't have much put up but harvesting every 2 weeks with this rotation keeps us supplied and I'll be putting more up !-- I joke that the by product of cannacap production is bud !--- Umbra is the one uses those Spyder lights !-- I run Mars Hydro 300 watt LEDs -- One box --One light !-- I can get them down to about a foot from the plant without burning them !-- The Spyder probably need more head room !-- They just too rich for my blood !--
Cost me about $425 per square meter (2 boxes- lights-pumps) to set up then after that just nutes and power !-- I've worked these boxes long enough now to figure out what I want to do and got some nice stuff to work with ! -- I'm down here in the belly of the beast so it ain't like I can go to the weed store to compare varieties !-- I gotta grow them out and process it before I can have a taste !
So I run lots of stuff !-- Mostly indica heavy !-- They still hunt us so I try to keep my head down locally !

 

[St_Nick]

Umbra sent me a bunch of Sativa dominant seed a while back. I guess he knew my taste. Unfortunately I think something happened cause most of 'em failed to sprout. I will admit I put 'em in rockwool which was a new thing for me but I had horrendous luck with 'em. Kinda why I gave up on the water gardening thing for now.

 

[Keef]

Find what works for U Nick !-- Looks to me like U got it down ! -- I got sand and bad water to work with !-- Too salty outside to grow much of anything round here !--Nothing but palm trees !- -- Makes me miss the swamp !-- Really been wanting a big sack of crawfish !

 

[Keef]

I got 5 gallons of Apple Wine in the freezer !-- By bedtime I should have it down to one gallon of Apple Jack !-- Blueberry Merlot right behind it by a few days !-- Can't let my yeast die so I'm need some more fruit !--

 

[St_Nick]

I need me a sack of them suckers too! Don't get me started.

 

[meetmrfist2]

nurse larry looking good man....

 

[Keef]

Nick I got left over gumbo !-- This time of year we usually place an order !-- D.D. buys frozen peeled crawfish tail meat for Etoufee and cooking - They also have a cured ham product called Tasso that she uses and andoullie sausage !-- Wait !-- and boudin !-- D.D. cook Cajun like a natural cause that's what she grew up eating !--

Used Neoprene inserts in my bubblers for clonning.Even grew a few all the way with those inserts. I personally like DWC and Dirt. Have even went from dirt to DWC using those inserts.
Just started a new job. I work from home. Lol
Anyway,,gotta save some money for a new light system i want to use. I plan on going with the SpyderX ive been reading about. Couldnt find it again, but someone here uses them. Then i gotta build me a growroom or purchase a Tent. I got some time. Besides i got enough dank in jars to last me for awhile,,and i want to look around and get to know my neighborhood.

Okay,,gotta go do a few Estimates. Make my money.

There are a couple of us running Fluence leds. I use a 4x8 Gorilla tent to feed my main flowering room. I was running 2 1000w MH in there and replaced it with a spydr. It was a test as much as anything. My flowering space, I run 6 double ended, air cooled 1kw HPS. I wanted to know before investing in more spydrs how they would do. If they would even come close. LOL. Better than the 1k w ac/de for sure.

 

[EstaMater]

Thats good to know. Ive seen a few side by side grows on the net using HPS vs SPYDRX. Very impressive. So im taking it you liked them. Went back at looked at a few of your grows. What is that thing you use that opens the Stoma or whatever?

 

[ness]

It ain't the glamorous side of grow but this is the heart of my operation !-- There might be 18 or so varieties in this box !-- I got 3 in veg. This one is most just vegging -- One is for fresh cuts and I'm using one for unsexed plants from seed !-- It's like an index card file for weed !- Pull one out grow it out big enough to chop into cuttings replace it with a rooted clone and when the cuts big enough off to bloom !-- If I kept mother plants I wouldn't have room for anything else !-- I see no problem cloning from clones !
The 2 plants at the bottom of the pic are my 2 boys !-- Squish -x- Oregon Lemon and on the right that High CBD -x- Valentine !

Looking good Keef. I could not upload my pictures. Something is wrong with my tower. What a bummer.

 

[ness]

Rose babies are looking good. Wish I could post some pictures. I took the easy way out on making tea. I bought the tea bags. In the future I'll try to brew tea. Rose how long is the tea good for? Do you put it in the frig?

 

[Keef]

D.D. giving me saddle sores ya'll !-- I said I would not go buy a gun at the gun show but that wasn't good enough !-- No buying a sack of parts and putting one together after I get home like U did last time either !-- Never crossed my mind !-- Dam !-- O.K. time to back up and come up with another plan !-- The army just released a bunch of surplus .45 caliber 1911's ! -- Probably some .38 police specials too ?-- I guess the question is can I take the heat ?-- Sure would like a pair !-- U know I'm bout to get in trouble right ?--

 

[ness]

Keef thoughs Hippie Dawgs are sure looking pretty. I sure hope I get a good out come.

Ness what I saw was when they bloomed they made more leaf than bud !-- Some others had the same problem !-- I'll see if I can get some seed out to U this week !-- I bred a Black Berry Snow Lotus male to about a dozen different girls and I got a few other things too !-- The BBSL male supposed to be one those super males that make everything better and I have been pleased with what he did so far ! -- They very fertile too !-- Most are germing just fine for me !-- I'll keep U posted !
U gonna need more room !
