Starting all over again

[MochaBud]

It's been a minute or two since I've been on here. Had a colossal cluster fuck...my wife's cat chased a squirrel through the doggie door and into my open grow room...well as you can imagine, the dogs followed in also, they trampled and broke and shredded the hell out of 3 tents, 4 HID lights, all the plants, which was considerably aggravating, as there were strains I can't replace...breathe there mocha...lol

So, lets move forward almost a year later...I was able to salvage my 4x8 tent, by using what was left of my 4x4 (tent poles) and I have three brand new 400 watt HIDs all in the 4x8 on 3 plants.
I also have the 2 little LED lights that were gifted to me by a sponsor, or former sponsor? They work great for my small closet for babies and such, small clones are under them now.
Here is what I have pics of for now.......

Bummer on the squirrel, cat , dog, destruction. I can see it in my mind!! Looks like you've made the best of it, the plants look nice, but it's hard to see color under the HID lights. You should start a journal.

 

[Emilya Green]

WOW! Welcome back!

 

[TwelveCoffee]

Welcome back and I'm sorry to hear about your last grow do the ducts running threw the HIDs provide cool air?

 

[Roy Growin]

Hey Mocha, good to see you back
As for the back story - sorry (laughing)
You somehow have me tempted to pop some beans...

 

[Buds Buddy]

Welcome Back Mocha ! That episode you had sounds like something you'd see in a cartoon. Sorry to hear about the loss though. Looks like you're back in business though so grow some of those monsters like before.

Good morning @MochaBud hope you are well my friend.
That must have been pandemonium, omg.
You must have been gutted.
So sorry.
But I'm glad your up and running again.
And since this is the introduce-yourself section I'll say welcome back.
You will be up to your tucas in Dank buds in no time I'm sure.
Can't wait to see your journal.

Stay safe
Bill

Thanks @Phytoplankton they're all green as can be as far as journals go, I'll finish my GSC grow for the free beans I was sent...after that though, probably just random strains in "Mochas Garden"

WOW! Welcome back!

Hey Em, how ya been?

Welcome back and I'm sorry to hear about your last grow do the ducts running threw the HIDs provide cool air?

Ya the lights are "6 inch 'cool tubes' " they're supposed to connect with duct work, it cools the lights while sucking the warm air out of the tent

Well, I didn't have a chance to save anything, I wasn't state side when it happened...

Ya man can't wait to see them...ahh the old days of arm length buds

Oh man, I was beside myself, and thanks for the warm welcome back I'm off to the local lowes for some more materials to finish venting all this outside

Wow there’s so many different types of lights lol

 

[VetSmoke85]

Welcome back Mocha. Great to see you back at it.

 

[HashGirl]

Welcome back, Mocha. Sorry to hear of the damage to your garden. I hope you have a secure door that can shut animals out now. I'd hate for them to cause chaos to your garden again.

 

[Tokin Roll]

Wow, I can only imagine in my mind; what it looked like when it was happening.

Welcome back @MochaBud and nice come back.

Stay safe, and grow well my friend,
Tok..

Sorry to hear. Something right out of Chevy Chase.

 

[MochaBud]

Wow there’s so many different types of lights lol

This is what I have...3 of them all in my 4x8

when I started there were no LEDs, but then the blurples UFOs came out ...I'm still convinced the old schools the best school, just my opinion been doing this since '07, not to say I don't have LEDs...I have 2-120 watt boards in my veg closet

Welcome back Mocha. Great to see you back at it.

Thanks Vet I see you've racked up some contests since I've been gone, wow, impressive

Well, it had a secure door, but I wasn't here, my wife was taking care of them while I was gone

Wow, I can only imagine in my mind; what it looked like when it was happening.

Welcome back @MochaBud and nice come back.

Stay safe, and grow well my friend,
Tok..

Sorry to hear. Something right out of Chevy Chase.
