Into the sprayer it goes....i pump it to high pressure, but only slightly depress the trigger....lotsa oxygen, low pressure.

I water to 20-25% run off, nutes every time. My pots all have a layer of lava rock in the bottom for drainage.... Hydroton is expensive, cleaning 3 doller walmart lava rock in hydrogen peroxide is cheap and easy...

Ok, i watered. Wanna see my drying chamber? 65% home made i promise.

420-magazine-mobile1107615602.jpg


Tardis 2 in coir might not as aggressively defoliate this one. Ill take lower, but not to far down.

Thanks man, im just taking advantage of my legal right to grow. I been waiting for this since i got caught as a kid attempting to grow in my closet. Growing is fun. I wouldnt call mea mj MacGyver, theres some other guys out there doing some really cool shit.
 
re: The Fiks Factory - 3x3 600W HPS & 1x3 300W LED - Coco Coir - Multi-Strain - Perpetual

Ok, watered 4 plants today....glad tommorow might be a day off.....takes almost 2 hours to mix, let sit 10 mins then water..... every time 4 or 8 plants....maybe i just suck....lol...

Ok the blossoming young ladies are tucked back in....so i though i'd share a little more of my exaust. Under the trimmed and wrapped moving blanket (which i chose as a sound insulater because it has 3 layers....anb because i Had it around...) is the wye for my exaust, and approx 2 feet of semi rigid duct. Best option would have been smooth fully rigid, but i knew i needed semi in some areas so i used the full 20 ft i had to buy. The wall has been modified, and plaster repaired to have a clean opening. On the other side of that wall is a closet, which holds my ballast, fan, timers, etc. I have no sound from my duct or in that wall. My sound comes from the carbon filters and cooltube inlet

Oh...i chose the wall instead of straight up beause i have no attic area. Plus the closet being there was clutch making a perfect place to hide protect and cleanly keep my electronics away from the grow area.

How old are your big girls?:Namaste:
All 4 cuttings were taken by a fellow grower, I aquired the first 3 on 3/16 in root riot cubes and a tupperware dish. Got the 4th on 4/2 in a tall 4 gal pot of super soil. All got switched to flower 5/2. The ss plant being in a taller pot threw off my canopy for a while so i just supper croped the crap out of it untill the others caught up in height.
 
re: The Fiks Factory - 3x3 600W HPS & 1x3 300W LED - Coco Coir - Multi-Strain - Perpetual

Oh, missing the detail of he took the cuttings at the same time , even though i got them 2 weeks apart.
