lookin good don.

 

[thedonofchronic]

Hey people, whew crazy last couple days.
I started 12/12 two days ago, and thought my mite problems was gone
but the day after i made the 12/12 switch i had spider webs across a few plants so im pretty much sprayin em a few times a day every day and hope to hell theyre gone by the times its too late!
Today i am very tired i was out last night and long story short I spent from 12 midnight to 5 pm the next day in jail... hahah and now lookin at a big fine plus lawyer crap but meh i aint gonna worry about that.
And im thinking of trying out my shed as my new grow room. its huge.
So much more space especially height which is what i need. If that doesnt work ill try a different spot i guess you can call a crawlspace. Anyways ill stop jibber-jabbering.

this ones for the boys lama, swift, mental, turkey, buddy :bong1:

 

[thedonofchronic]

question, how would i get the proper power out
to my shed without using like a curcuit board and wiring.
i have a real long orange extension chord but it only has like
one set a holes.. so what to do? i need to be able to run the 400w
i got now plus another 400 that ill prolly be getting if im in this shed. both with digi timers..

 

[MeNtAlPaTiEnT]

Hey don, I'm running off an extension cord as well. I must be running 500+ watts with the TV running and the lights all together with no problems. I believe most extension cords can run like 1500 watts or something like that... Might want to look that up though. I'd feel pretty sketchy running 800 watts 12 hours a day on an extension cord UNLESS it's actually pretty safe. Wish we had some electricians in the house haha.

Does your cord has 3 holes, one for the grounder and the other two for the regular inputs?

Sorry to hear about the visit to jail Don...as for your electrical problem I don't know enough on the subject to make a recommendation... hopefully someone with more knowledge on the subject chimes in...

 

[thedonofchronic]

yep its got the 3 prong
i might not even risk it damn.
plus there would be so many more mites...
and there already flowerin dont wanna stick em outside...
what to do what to do

 

[swiftgt]

hey man,
thats lame about getting locked up, that sucks! was it weed related?
well your in luck don
it just so happens i am an electrician,
but im more familiar with uk 220v not 110 us systems,
most extension cables are wired in 2.5mm cable,( 0.1019 of an inch) and at 110v it should carry 15 amps fine,
here are some formula that will help

volts= amps x resistance
amps=volts devided by resistance
resistance= volts devided by amps
power in watts = volts x amps

volts 110 x amps 15 = 1650watts = 1.6kw
so a 2.5mm extension cable can carry 1.6kw of power.

so the bigger the cable you run the more power you can draw,
be careful never to coil up an extension lead when its being used, they over heat easyly and i have seen plenty of them melted!
you can run an extension lead but it would be safer if you connected a new cable up,
if i was there id do if for you!
but then again, you will have more battels with mites!
what to do indeed!

 

[thedonofchronic]

yeah its a tough one alright.
im going to leave them for now
dealin with the mites i have already
is its own battle. so i probably wont switch unless
i really run out of height. im dumb too the whole i night
i was at jail i left the towel off the bottom crack of the door,
and last night i passed out and left it off. so theres a light been
shinin through the bottom crack the last 2 nights... so weak.
i hope nothins gonna hermie cause of it

 

[lordhighlama]

sorry to hear about the trip to the pig station don,
that light leak doesn't sound like it should be to detrimental
if anything it will just slow down the sexing process.
Hope everything goes well with your legal issues!

 

[thedonofchronic]

hey all. second day of flowering. well theyve had the lights
off for 3 nights so how would i count that.. i put em into flower
on the 9th. so i guess 2nd day of flower right? i dunno anywho
clones arnt working out too well yet, the old bunch never grew
roots but the one. which i have a pic of how it looks now, its rooting
slowly but surely.. the newer cuttings i put in still have a few days..
The cuttings had mites all over them i had to spray em down..
The plants are looking alright, they seem to be already starting stretch
a bit. one of the plants that i had time to flush is already noticably bigger.

thanks guys. yeah jails no fun so for all who havnt been, stay out.
I remembered right as i got there that theres no smoking.
So it was a very, very long night for me. What i did have nothing to
do with weed either, it was dumb though. drunken michief, what can i say? Aint never going back though. Thanks guys later

 

[lordhighlama]

the garden's looking great man,
sucks that you have to keep dealing those mites though!

 

[thedonofchronic]

straight man.
you dont even know, especially because
i just went into flower i really gotta do something!
right now i do:
once a day- one spray down both sides of leaves
with half 99%iso alcohol half water.
wait till leaves are dry then spray both sides
of leaves with water with a drop of peppermint dr bronners.
i hope its killing them off man its so frusterating.
my entire last harvest was roast. it had dead mites all in it.
i might have smoked like one bowl of my own stuff. like the only bud i found that didnt have a mite on it. damn.

:hairpull: death to the mite!

 

[lordhighlama]

ya that's bunk, to have a whole harvest go because of infestation is pretty crappy. sounds like moving out to the shed would bring even more trouble though.
I haven't had to deal with those little buggers yet, keeping my hooves crossed.

 

[thedonofchronic]

HAHA :rofl:

if youve seen Office space... micheal boltons talking about
bill lumbergh and hes like his kids would have hooves :rofl:
too funny

 

[MeNtAlPaTiEnT]

Don my man! That's such a beautiful garden man... wow! Talk about a garden of eden! Don't let those mites catch you again!

 

[Exarmy]

does lady bugs work for spider mites? Its worth a shot. I think the only 5-10 bucks at you local nursery.
