These girls are growing vertical fast at the moment and the net is well filled. There should be a lot of good buds in here soon.

Day 21 since flip

Res change day.
100% of recommended amounts of General Hydroponics three part liquid nutes for Early Bloom. Set PH to 5.5-6.0, 60ml Cal-Mag+, 30ml Kool Bloom.

No change in light height or power level.

AC (recirc) and exhaust fan thermostats were bumped up a little to better utilize the CO2. Room fans at max.

Running a Sour Mash Barley-Corn wash and letting the CO2 bubble into the room. That's what the little plastic contraption is on the front left.

These girls still growing fast and up.

For some reason I don't have the normal toolbar available on the site now.

Hey GW! Beautiful plants I don't see a single blemished leaf it's amazing! And those bikes are sweet too

There are blemishes. The camera doesn't always pick them up. But the girls are developing vigorously. I also sometimes make unwanted contact trying to reach the back ones, but so far no apparent damage.

Thank you Bubba!

I have a couple of smallish white oak barrels. One is charred on the inside, the other is toasted. And both are almost empty due to my angels being greedy with their share. Which means evaporation rather than me drinking it. I am type II and have crohns so I don't partake of alcohol anymore as a drinking beverage.

That being said I learned a bit about making a wash or as most people call it mash.
I use caramelized barley, stone ground corn, water, sugar, and yeast, along with a bit of the leftover liquid(sour mash) from the still, from the previous run.
This is mixed up in a bucket and fermented.

This bucket has a lid with a hole and a tube leading from it up to the bubbler on the grow screen. When it quits bubbling, I pour the liquid into a one gallon distiller and end up with about 12oz of decent alcohol that I air for a few days before adding it to the barrel.
After it's been in the charred barrel for a few years, it is moved to the toasted oak barrel to finish. Years later.

CO2 is the gas that's bubbling into the grow. I forgot to add for those that might not have known. Oops.

I have to make a new bucket every 3-5 days. When it stops bubbling, time to make another.
