White Rhino in Bubble-buckets 1rst grow

[jzchillin]

Well I started off with lots of research basically. A lot of you already know me by my retarded questions and then disappearing. thanks to everyone that has helped!! Well here is a very unorganized view of my setup and first grow here.

here's my personal grow area and equipment I use.

this is the bloom box

homemade carbon filter (works great) held up with hemp string.
cooltube was broken upon arrival, now has glass glue in it, not sure if you can see that.
600w light, hortilux

red one is a "waterproof" hanna ph meter. love it!!!
I read here recently that they don't make these and had a full on argument about it.
well, here's the picture, fag!
the blue thing in the back is just used for ec/tds/ppm and temp.
it has the ability to do ph, but i wouldn't trust it.
i fried my first batch using it, that's when i bought the hanna "non-waterproof" ph meter.

this was recomended by ocitown, thanks bro!!!
it's my ro/di, my water sucks so much that after i run my water through here, i still get 140ppm, haha.
i don't drink that shit though.
I keep it covered with a towel to keep any kind of growth inside the tubes to a minimum.
the room stays dark most of the time so I don't really worry about it.

that's my utlity section.

this is my regiment of nutes arrange all nice.
it's a first, and i'm sure the last.

this is my cloning area. i also use it for herbs and shit.
right now it has wr getting ready for a 6 bucket system.
so anyway that's it. thanks for looking.

Munchies anyone? That was dinner...
hickory grilled steak with coconut & orange sauce
steamed peppers and mushrooms with olive oil and garlic marinade
tomato & basil feta cheese stuffed potatoes
What? I have to have something to do.

Here's the first little baby girl.
I started her in soil and washed the dirt away and then put her into the bubble buckets.
she didn't have any kind of shock either.
amazing little girl she is. i get this warm fuzzy feeling whenever i talk about my girls.

Here's after the 2nd week of bloom they are EXPLODING!!!

i'll be harvesting in random intervals.
this way i will have different types of weed from the same plant.
early gives you the up, happy, move around high.
middle is chillin, play video games and eat.
and then the last little bit will give the couchlock.
and these babies are icky-sticky-goey-oeyee!!!

Liguid Karma is the shizznit. that's all i use in the cloner. but seeing that it's in short supply over hear, i only use it for the cloner. thanks for checkin the ladies out!

nothing really cool to show... I started the flush last night. PH is pretty jumpy. I promice to show you guys the finished nugs.
On a side note, i just ordered a bunch of caps, resisters, and diodes to build a ionizer. Going to get rid of the stink one way or the other.

Waz up chillin???

Looking great man,But why ozone if your CF works?
I would suggest a good carbon filter over any store bought or custum built ozone generator,their pure poison for plants.people and corosive to all metals,also hard to to control the output when DIY.

I was all over the OG with a 15000volt transformer and a glass plate but after allot of research i went with a can 50 with much better results and no side effects.

Look at greengoldhydro.com for a can 33 for less than $100,could last you 1-2years and you can refill it too.

Looking good man..stop in to jcj77ds thread and say hi sometime bro.

great lookin setup. I have white widow in my garden and have heard many great things about her close relative, White Rhino. What do you think of the strain all around? Thanks man and keep up the progress.

thanks man, been watching you and rumple among others and the info has been priceless. thanks for checkin me out.
your right about ozone dude. i was originally going go with an ozone generator, so i mentioned it to my pops and he had the same conclusion (he's like an engineering DR). that's why i made an ionizer. it still lights up the tip of my needles with a corona but i ran it through a metal tube and gave the tube a charge also, so it catches everything inside the tube, and outputs minimal ozone. i just hooked it up a few minutes ago. it's great too because it doesn't need a fan because the negative ions are attracted to the metal tube and create a little vortex. if i'm right i think the voltage is something like 36000 volts but i haven't done the precise math yet.

my CF works great but when i open the door to the box the entire appartment is filled with funk and it doesn't go away for awhile, so i had to do something.

I love it!! the buds are denser than anything I have ever seen, and now this week the crystal production has just started exploding. looks like they are covered in syrup. i'll post some more pics tomorrow. I would tonight, but I am burnt from soldering the past couple hrs.

[jzchillin]

Day 6 of flush, minor mold spotted in buds. Since day 4 i have had 3 spots. Harvested one cola, lost 1/2 cola and a couple of nugs. I have taken all the moldy parts out and frozen them as a precaution. Not all is lost, I can still make hash! And, we ALL love hash.

When I bought these seeds I was under the false pretense that they were mold resistant. But, finally seeing how tight these buds really are, I cannot believe that. Not that I'm complaining or anything, I mean who in they're right mind wouldn't like a big hard cola dripping with tetrahydrocannabinoids!?!

The further into flush, the more it smells like watermelon. Weird, but GOOD!

Pictures are on the way.

[myles117]

sweet man, lookin forward to the pics after hearing bout the dense nugs you have on your hands

What is the humidity in your grow room

[Bombastic]

The ozone genorator will kill all the mold there and stop it comming back. Fooker that mold in the buds it goes throutgh the bud at a alarming rate if not kept in chek.

I had this once and lost shit loads to the mold left it one day came back the next to buds that when i picked them up the fookers fell apart to dust NOT GOOD.

[Rumpleforeskin]

Just make sure you don't put your Ozone generator inside your grow room. I made that mistake, it killed the plant next to it in less then 6 hours.
