Sideways pics, nice... Guess I cant go back and edit, been too long maybe?

On with the show!! I did not like the way I had the ventilation in the tent so today I moved it all around to make better sense. The real reason was that it was interfering with my light. All changes have been made and its a MILLION times better, sweet! I have a 440 cfm fan in the tent and also needed to add more passive intakes. All in all its taken five 6" passive intakes to keep up reasonably with my exhaust. Still getting a bit of negative pressure so I feel good and my fan should be appreciating my attention to this.

Pulled the beans out of water today and into the paper towel till they decide to show themselves. I will check in on them tomorrow.

The ebb and flow table will be here on Tuesday so after work I will get that put all together and tested and dialed in. My bottles of Z7 should be here on Wednesday, been hearing nothing but rave reviews on this product.

Had a question on my Coco brick that I am about to prep. I am using a Canna Coco brick and was wondering if there was anything special I need to do to it before using it to transplant these new seeds into?

Here are some images of the changes I made to the tent today.

Setup looks great. You have everything prepaired here I see

Time to transplant. Remember to be gentile autos hate being moved or uprooted. I did the same on my last grow. Right in their permanent home next time and you'll get a jump ahead on your next run.

Hey DA, thanks for stopping by and thank you! I have given it all the effort I can to be prepared yet I still find myself needing something else almost everyday. LOL

I'm looking forward to finally using the flood table soon. Such a damn tease just sitting there, I flood it with RO water just to play some

Now that I have the big pots on the table and watering them on it I was wondering if I need to add a spacer to my drain in the table. I have the short one in now and have the other that can be added to it. How deep should my water be on the table during the flood?

Here is my depth with the single spacer on the drain line. I have one more spacer I can add if needed.

Thank you DA WW1 is looking a bit sad this morning. Drooping down a bit.... Not surprised really. When I was transplanting her her coco crumbled a good bit while I was placing her

Looking good so far. .

Hey there Penny, thanks! Appreciate you coming by and checking out what Im up to. So much fun sitting here watching these babies take off.

Good morning and happy Memorial Day Weekend! I personally plan on sitting here looking at my babies all weekend except for a quick fishing adventure at some point.

I have a couple upkeep tasks that are coming up that I have never done and wanted to check with everyone on the proper ways

I read that I should be doing a weekly top watering when using ebb and flow. I have not done this yet and feel it is time but was not sure of a couple things.

- Nutes or RO?
- Does this replace the normal watering cycle on the timer for that day?

It appears that I may have hurt one of the girls a bit.... I noticed the spot several days back and have been watching it. I may have got some nutes on her, not sure. I will post a good pic in a short bit showing the area of concern. I would feel better to get some opinions on it.

I also had a questions about the flood table. When my pump is on how high are you guys flooding or shall I say how deep is your water in the table? When I put my bulkhead fitting on I have the short drain installed but can add an extension to make the water deeper. Since I am in the 4gal Smartpots I was thinking that I should be getting the water a bit deeper in the flood tray for them?


Topping soon... Next post

I use 3 gallon pots and would flood 3 1/2" I use coco and the coco is very good at wicking water up.
