Doesn't look so bad!
I'm guessing the leak is at the connection you're holding?

Yes that’s one spot I’m suspicious of because the clear tube was swelling up too much! I’m trying to figure out if it’s because I turned up the pressure too much or if I just have weak lines! Also I used an old hose for a certain spot near the water supply nobs that is starting to show leakage! I think I need a stronger hose!

It's the way the two lines are attached. Right where your fingers are, that pipe clamp? Try putting a straight barb connection. Then clamp each side.

Edit, or I'm not seeing it right...
it is med time for me

Haha thanks Rex! I went back and forth to Home Depot over a weeks span getting tiny tinker parts To make it all fit in right, but that one part you just mentioned I didn’t have so I literally snapped off an old plastic pump fitting to try and jimmy rig it off to farm and home because Home Depot sucks ass!!!!!

I've done it myself on more then a few occasions, hence why that was my 1st guess!

Update!!! She’s back up and running on all 50 tubes of mayhem!!! Thanks Rex!!!
I’ll be posting some more on mother w/c when I get a chance to get back in with her!! I’m now working on the fun stuff at the moment!!! Have to rebuild the motor on her already!!! Talk about a big change to what I thought John Deere was all about!!!! I sure hope they stick to building the strongest running machines instead of doing what most car manufacturers are doing to use today!!!

 

[Moto258]

Well as ya can tell this knuckle head forgot to lower the ppfds on the lights so if she’s looking sad I do apologize I plan to try and get her back to praying again!!! I’ve been doing a looot of multiple things at once the past couple weeks and I left too much in her food bowl on the nutrient side while forgetting to lower the sun rays at the same time!! I guess we shall see if I did any over stressing to this lady to find out what’s in her genetics!!! Another experiment on my part but a good one I guess!!!!hey sparkey224 I’m now throwing that fan directly at them damn gnats now!! Thought about your tip and figured maybe they won’t be able to hang on to long in them hurricane type winds!!!rofl: Cheers!!

Does anyone have a good idea on what they do with their waste ro water??!! I’m thinking about sending the waste water to a separate large tank outside my home in order to use it on all the lawn equipment I have to tend to on a weekly basis!! Does anyone have any clever ideas that they use their waste water on!? I’m not someone that likes to waste or see water being used while others aren’t drinking enough water in our world so it would be a nice thought on my mind if I didn’t contribute to the wasting. So far I’ve been letting it drain into my trash can style brewer and using the waste water to form ice for bubble extraction(I drain the water threw a final funnel filter to get an turds I may have collected along the drainage) but other than them two ideas I’m spent on what else I can do. Any one can chime in if they want too...

 

[Moto258]

Well I guess here’s an update! Didn’t get to much time on her lately but thanks to this drip system installed I now have time to work on my equipment finally!!! She’s throwing her purple horns at me and now starting to show some stress so hopefully I’m able to get to tying her up some more before the weekend ends!!(heat stress on my hairs )

 

[Moto258]

Did some landscaping to the new addition! Gezzz you can tell with what she’s been trying to throw at me lately she’s mad at me!! Just more work she made me put in past few days on top of the list of mowers and trucks im repairing after years of waiting on me to realize they needed my attention as well! Or at least on the maintenance side of things!! But I’m working on her genetics a little to improve all that! Thinking northerns help I might be able to fix that problem but long road before I’m able to do another pollen swap for this gal! But certainly keeping her mom around since she smells just like a strawberry but looks just a grape at a winery and smells like grapes once cured! Cheers who ever is watching still!! (Oh yeah thrips helped her body look a little I call artsy, but sns definitely took care of her problems gnat and thrip including.. still spraying on them dryer days to try and keep them down on the outside of her skin so far their shriving up like grandpas weiner on Johnny Knoxville(jackass movie)!!!!
Other than that she’s on day 30 starting tomorrow wish her luck because she definitely needs it!!!

Amazing plant. what signs do you look for when you think your lights are heat stressing it?

Well I’m starting to notice the middle canopy tops getting hairs browning up starting to shrivel only on the top buds, and I’ll have to take a pic in the morning when lady’s are basking in the rays. But also the tops will get white and show the signs which only the middle portion got hit with it pretty badly I’ll admit. My lights are pretty powerful at full strength turned up so I tend to play with the dimmer to imitate nature as well as I can. I could be wrong but it’s just my observation since the main path of the destruction was in the middle where the lights are more intense.

 

[Moto258]

Here is a few shots of my lights giving a nice crop dust like affect down the middle canopy! The white tips are the left over effects after the hairs went brown during the first signs of too much ppfd. I was already worried about it happing tho due to my lack of getting into raise the lights during her stretch. Hope that helps ya!!!!cheers! (Hint the three pics are of each portion of her top canopy 1 with the white tips on the buds and the other 2 are on each side of the path that was destroyed by the ppfd impact!!)

Mother northern had to get a treatment today!! One last treatment before I’ll allow her back into the garden!! Thrips has to get to going!!! No more runs with thrips in the lead anymore!!

Following along, looking great so far!

I love t5s for veg and will try them out for bloom as well.
I find they produce the thickest leaves and branches but I dont know how that would translate into bloom and maybe light penetration is not so good?

I mean I have not tried to bloom myself with the t5s I’m working with, but my previous t5 I had a few years ago just kept my pepper hord along with old grandparents plants I’ve had for sometime now alive during the winter. Honestly t5s have been great for my mothers less maintenance for them and more time for them to develop large stauks in the process, but also tend to swap out the t5s with the leds I use on the vegging lady’s about to go into flower for a good couple weeks before I flip them. Hope that helps my friend! Ohh yeah I almost forgot not great penatration at all but they work for a home enthusiast..

Update! Been busy back at work I’m sorry for not posting much! But after I stopped using nutes I was currently running this lady with at the time and switching to remo’s line I fed to a nice run off to figure out where she was in her soil before giving her first dose of remo. Pretty simply stuff I’m actually very impressed and will continue using them for a while!! Thanks again remo and 420 I now have a new favorite to use in the garden!! I have another strawberry cough pheno I’ll be starting a journel with when I get a minute from life catching up so fast on me. But ill be using y’alls next light for my vegging time with the two lady’s that will be up next. Along with this new prescription blend I got not sure how to use it just yet but I’ll figure it out I hope!!! So far remo was spot on in every aspect of where I’m headed towards for my meds to be on point. You can smell the candy in yalls nature’s candy additive to a T I just know this girl is getting what she needs now!!! Good lord does she smell amazing I wish I could give someone a whiff and feel because damnnn tasty I tell ya!!! Other than that all good news she’s on day 37 and has about 11-14 more days left to go before she’s ripe enough for me!!! Oh yeahhh she’s now beautiful in the purple department along with that frosty touch of greatness!! Cheers 420!!

 

[Moto258]

Some photos of w/c in her prime as she starts to finish on up!! Cheers!!(hint!!! The white tip crop dusting down the middle section was due to my lack of getting in the garden to lower the rays on the lights!!!) don’t make my mistake even tho she’s still doing just fine!!

 

[Moto258]

I don’t want to fill up my signature with more journels... so I figured what the heck why not throw my outdoor girl up for the heck of it!!! If she gets some attention I’ll keep her updated while she grows up!! Cheers to outdoor!!!!!
