No more outside grows for me. It was tricky for me to grow this winter inside. I can't wait until I get my flowing room going. This will take some time. Things around here just don't move fast at all.

Nick looking good. In the furture I'm going to try a sative. I had one growing outside and it was about 6 feet tall. But, it only had pop corn buds (lots). I think it was because there was a night light on all night out in the yard. So, I change spot were to grow outside. Next harvest was much better. Smoking it now.

Ness, popcorn bud is a way of life with a sativa. The bulking up of the buds seems to be a Indica thing. Counting this one I have 3 different Sativas, they all bud the same way.:vap-Bong_smoker:

I transplanted a small maple tree yesterday. I'm going to love it when it gets bigger. I have 7 pecan tree which will paid for the taxes after harvesting them. This is a good thing.:bong2:

Over Cast today. About high 60's. Puppies are waking up time for a feeding.

I run one 12 inch air stone in each bin I think I might move my reservoirs out of the room to try and help keep them cooler And if I do that I'm going to switch from the smaller buckets to 50 gallon barrels

Bud, they make chillers for your reservoir. Small price to pay in my mind for 1 less thing that can go wrong or create a bigger problems.

st. nick. when you get tired of getting your wallet reamed out, give Dairy-Land insurance a call.1-800-526-4252. they are based out of Wisconsin. i have been extremely happy with the rates, and i have filed a few claims over the years and did not get dropped.

That's a good idea my friend I think I'll check into some today hope you're off to an excellent start

I'll never run a water setup without a way to regulate the rez temp.

I'll never run a water setup without a way to regulate the rez temp.

Words of wisdom my friend...if you plan well you can put your rez outside the grow and its easy to keep the water 68-70f. I was never one for a DWC or RDWC personally. I did a DWC once and quickly learned by week 5 of flower that it was all kinda trouble working out of a small rez. Too much can happen too quickly.

Got stoned looking for yard stuff so now having a I'm sore so i'll be stoned day...tomorrow I finish the yard

Got the car inspected !-- Only took 3 Trips this year !-- Stopped a the store on the way home for supplies I can't haul on the scooter !-- 2 big a** watermelons jumped into my cart while I wasn't looking !-- $4 each !
I figure a gallon of fruit brandy might be worth a bit more than the cost of the fruit and sugar ! -- This be my first run using Watermelon instead of bottled Watermelon Juice !-- How much a quart of shine go for up in the mountains Nick ? -- U know how to set up a blind drop ?

Ness U might want to shut the grow down while U recover from the total knee operation !-- U not gonna be able to do much for U recover !-- U get back on your feet maybe Uncle Keef get U some clones ready if U want ? -

I got no way to regulate the temp in my boxes !-- We keep the temp in the house at 76 year round -- I had a heat problem at one time !-- Submersible pump creates heat as it works !-- I started with about 6-8 gallons of nute water per box !-- It hit 80 and I got slimed !-- Kept increasing the amount of nute water per box and the temp leveled out !-- I run about 12 gallons of nute water now !-- Temp stays close to 76 -- Water level drops and pH goes up !-- pH goes up the new leaves get light colored so I see light green colored new growth ? --I know my PH is climbing --Probably because the water level has dropped-- which warms it up --which locks out O2 and some nutes !-

Hay Keef i started to collect the pollen off the strawberry rhino for you should be able to send it out maybe by the end of the week :48:

I never had a problem with the reservoir temperature until I started pushing 5 1000 Hopefully these new LED lights that I'm building will work good so I can get rid of some of the 1000 to drop the temperature in the room the room usually runs around 30 to 32° consistent drops down to about 20 22 at night humid usually stays about 45 to 50 unless it gets super cold out then it's hard to keep the humidity consistent without running a bunch of humidifiers
