In royal gold basement mix and 10gallon roots organics bag style pots(thumbs way up on these babies) and a couple scraggly green cracks girls feeding them the whole line of Hollands secret bada big bang and bloom with super b+ , plantacilin, ton o bud so far and things are goin great take a look. 6'x7'x7' room with 1000w no hood and 450cfl blower converted to an online with a/c
Here's a quick snap shot of my veg room. I just stapled 2 face plastic to the rafters in my basement and cut the sheets to overlap and cover the floor roughly 6'x6'x8 space. 400w conversion mh bulb in a 3ft parabolic hood. In this pic there's 5 orange velvets in sunshine mix #4 and 4 little ovs in party cups. Not in frame is my aerocloner that I made from scratch I'll post a pic of that later.
Thanx for the feedback guys. I'm taking on a patient soon that is gonna buy me a sun systems xxxl hood and I'll be expanding the flowering room and installing my light mover so my room will then be 11'x6'x7' and shit will really start poppin right now my 1000w has no hood so I had to rig the blower up and install a/c which causes other heat issues so it'll be nice to rid myself of that fucker.
looking lush my friend. I dare say you will yield higher by pruning some of the inner/lower foliage on some of those larger plants. do you keep an oscillating fan on your plants under the 1000w? how's that aero cloner work did you use the blue prints from GC?
Yeah I know about the trimmin down but I ran into a sodium build up and and nute lock from my ph tester being 1.2 off calibration so i chose to keep the lower leaves for now as an indicator that it's getting better. I'm going to run some twine from wall to wall and pull down the long branches and open her up then I'll take out 50% of those fan leaves for sure
And as far as the aero cloner goes it's a rubbermaid 18gal storage tub. I chose it because the edges of the lid and rim are flat and sit flush so no leaks. My pump is way huge for this but it came with the box of shit I first got with my 400w lamp ballast bulb and wing hood with my current blower and a bunch of other shit for 80 bucks from a buddy. I digress ha ha but I just made a T with PVC and screwed in some sprayer tips and got a short cycle timer and coated it with black duct tape. Of course threw in the neoprene collars lol but first run was wack shit wasn't clean or ph correctly. Second runi sanitized it then ph tested for 2 days till steady I used hygrozyme and clonex solution and gel in the res at 6.3 and 100% success in in 10 days had to give some away cuz I was over compliance with my card. Here's a pic of it and some of the new trans plants they suffered a bit.
Those clones are gonna start to explode on you soon they love red 16oz cups because clones use less root space then from seed so it houses them real swell for a lil bit.
He'll yeah I wet the sunshine mix with super b + hygrozyme and propagator by Hollands secret. They struggled a bit this run because my timer was off from getting bumped but I caught it around day 7 and the water was stank so I added an air stone a bot more hygro and it cleared up but this time no green cracks popped yet on day 17 but still green so well see all 9 ovs popped day 12 and 14
Got no experience with all those other additives only trustworthy FFOF and dutch master gold line organic nutes A and B: the veg kind and bloom kind. Impressed by that enough so don't feel the need for all the other stuffs plus when you add too many things very risky business with the pH, might add never checked mine once cause the minimal additives used and good water blessed with! Edit: lol sorry stoned your a hydro guy so that's why you use multiple different additives. Just love FFOF IMO hydro can get to complicated for someone like muah who don't even test his run off pH.(the plants talk to muah). Another Edit so ripped) didn't realize only thing bubbly was the propagator lol. Can't wait to see em in that yummy dirt IMHO feel all clones will have a 100% success rate rooting if you just leave them, always they either root real quick or will root right before ppl usually get there moral down and are about to toss them at around that 2 week mark. Pushed propagating to the extreme and never used no additives always had 100% knock on wood.
I rolled organic for a long time and it's kind of shaky for me on the over all end result. My first run in this set up was using flora blend trinity by roots organics and age old and shit came out amazing (see thread purple haze clones under 400w hps) but later age old was pulled from the shelves because it isn't organic like the label said hence it's great success in the pro mix plus soil then shit got fucked when I started making teas and shit with guano fish mix trinity and worm castings and threw them into the wrong type of soil so I'm using the whole line of holland secret and following their feeding schedule minus 1ml on everything and these results speak for themselves I'd say Holland secret: Bada bing Bada bang Bada bloom Super b+ Plantacilin - bacteria The hammer- powder for thicker stronger stalks use only 2 feeding Bud start- powder once on week 2 of flowering Ton o bud- powder weeks 3 & 4 Gravity- not holland secret but a must have for any one shit works The heavies- powder wk 4-8 Clear X- again not HS but dump a gallon and hour before flush for week 9 and let em die off
damn thats a lot, to each their own i say, me personal could never keep track of that much the mind does not permit it lol and yepp i'd say those ladies you got there represent that those products work rather swell(pun intended).
Organization is the key lol I keep all my products in line on my shelf and I record the dose of everything as well as check off on the feeding schedule I have on the wall. If something goes wrong I can refer back and see what may have been too much. What's even more tough is the powdered shit. It's measurements are in grams so I have to break out the digi and weigh shot out like good ol coke days ha ha. But the hydro store stopped selling this brand so next run will be either van de zwans line up or zeta but since I'm using sunshine mix organic base nutes aren't an option
And just as I start talkin about organization and shit I go and smoke a blunt and ass out with the kiddos and wake up at 3am goin oh shit it feeding night tonight lol. Babies always make me fall asleep when I rock them lol. Just gave em their nutes and everything is still lookin good I'm expecting some long colas on these girls one branch is stacking sites up and it's bundling them down 18 in so the bud porn is on the way. I'm gonna have to email the photos from my nikkon to post them so I'll be doin that tomorrow
New pics during lights off day 23 I have 24" stalks with bud sites the size of cotton balls ever inch it's gonna get heavy in here once I use the heavies powder and gravity on em starting day 28. And I got one of the green crack and honestly I'm not too thrilled on this strain. It's not a heavy yielder from the finished ones I've seen and it grows very screwy and unpredictable. Green crack is a fitting name it grows like it's on crack ha ha
