VIVOHUT Bill284's New Grow Facility: Featuring VIVOSUN & Herbies Seeds

[Bill284]

We call him the Truffle Hunter.
Always digging through the snow for something.
He loves to play in it , not me.
I like the heat.
I'll tell him he looks like AL Pacino see what he thinks.
Take care my friend.
Nice of you to drop by @sjb504 .

very nice set up

Thank you.
I still have a ton of work to complete.
I'll post pics of everything as I'm finishing up.
Now I have a permanent grow facility and no worries of a house fire.
Always be safe my friend.
Hope you had a nice weekend.
Take care.

congratulations Bill, that was some tough work but all worth it, looks awesome man.
Great job buddy

Thanks for your support G.G. it's meant a lot to me.
Been a rough year and a half since the fire.
All the encouragement and support has kept me going.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend my friend.
Take care.

Here for the journey Bill, setup looks amazing, hard work has definitely paid off. Your organisation and documentation are something to aspire too. Glad to be here and I've already learnt a trick or two from the first page

Thank you so much my friend.
That's so nice of you to say.
If it weren't for everyone here I wouldn't have made it this far along.
Everyone has been so supportive.
I have a background in construction so that helped aswell.
Hopefully all the documentation helps someone.
Either prevent a fire or build a fireproof room.
I still have literally 400 more pictures to post of the construction and set up.
Hopefully I get caught up soon.
It's nice of you to drop by.
Take care my friend.

Here we goooooooooooo! Hey guys! I brought weed in case nobody...er.... nevermind. Congrats Bill, so exciting!

Res, how are you doing Amigo.
Glad your running around the forums again.
Hope you like the VIVOHUT.
It's taken far too long but I'm on my own here.
I had Steve my buddy the first two weekends.
But he is 4 hrs away.
Everything else has been me.
Even 10' sheets of drywall I did on my own.
Worst part was trying to sand drywall.
My shoulders aren't fastened properly anymore.
But it's not that bad, I'm sure the girls don't mind.
Still have a bit of work left but I'm up and running.
Take care my friend.
Talk soon.

This is awesome! I say this all the time usually it’s aimed at @Grand Daddy Black and his grow but man
When I grow up…

Thank you so much my friend.
I'm glad you like my little Shack.
4x4 veg VS4000, 5x5 flower VS6450 and about a 60 sq/ft work shop & desk.
I still need to paint and put up shelves in the rest of the work area.
And hang equipment in the 5x5.
But I have a couple weeks before flower so I'll be ready.
I'll have a complete breakdown of the construction process in here.
Just have to finish first.
Take care my friend.

Awesome great job on EVERYTHING!! I would love to catch this ride , If It's cool with you

I should have answered in order, instead of starting at the end.

Wonderful to have you here.
Talk soon.

I want to thank Vivosun for being such an awesome supporter of ... well, us! It's a very forward-thinking project, outfitting a full grow shack like this. Choosing Bill to do this instantly raised my esteem in Vivosun and not just because Bill's my buddy. No, it shows a real understanding of the industry on their behalf, that they appreciate Bill's cache just as we do. Now, don't you start taking advantage of my friend's good nature Vivosun, it will not be tolerated! (lol, sorry not sorry)

 

[Bill284]

Wow Bill! Looks great! You did a wonderful job on the construction of Vivohut! That will give you a great place to grow for years to come. After seeing those pics I feel motivated to maybe do something similar in the future. It would be nice to have a dedicated growing area away from my house.

I love the detail and care you put into your journals. I’ll be hopping in for the ride if you don’t mind. Can’t wait to see those babies grow. Have a great day my friend

Good morning Chris, hope you had a nice weekend my friend.
Thanks for the compliment and support.
A dedicated grow facility away from the house wascmy only option.
If we have a claim we will never get insurance again.
I suggest you start construction in the spring though.
Working in minus 20 is a young man's game.
I figure I have 4 weeks before the flower room is needed.
That will buy me some time.
Thanks for the kind words.
Take care my friend.
Talk soon.

@VIVOSUN is the future of growing cannabis.
The variety and quantity of equipment is outstanding.
I'm very fortunate to be working with such a fantastic company.
As you probably know I did have other offers.
But my heart was always set on VIVOSUN.
Fortunately for me they excepted my offer.
Talk soon Amigo.

Thanks G.F.
I'm pretty excited.
The greenhouse was great but I love growing inside.
Too much beyond my control in the greenhouse.
I'll do it again don't worry, bigger and better this summer.
I just miss having my garden year round.
Now I have the perfect 4 season facility.
Minus 30 c to plus plus 30 c , 60 degree swing, I'll still be at the perfect vpd.
Take care Amigo.

I love those plugs. I soak mine in town water, and still get 95%. No innoculant, cups, mats, or paper towel. If it's clones, gel.. that's it. Seeds.. nadda

I use them for cloning mostly.
But I can't find my pods, so I used the coco cubes.
Fantastic for air retention inside.
Just love them.
Do you use the bigger ones for your next step?

I've thought about it. I would if I grew synthetically, for sure! But mine go into living soil at an ec around 2. Into a 4x4 pot for 3-4 weeks at around 80-100% rh. Then transplanted into 3 gallon airpots. But I only put 1 gallon of medium into the 3 gallon (ec 3ish) and slowly lower the rh over the next 3 weeks to rh 60. And transplant into 60 gal beds. Let them adjust for a couple weeks into a net, and then off to the budroom.

That's a great process.
How long have you been working on it?
Must have been a bit of trial and error?

Thank you, sir! More error than trial, I'm afraid. Expensive lessons. Most of my reading was from this site, but until you do it yourself.. it's all just words. But I've been building this grow up over the last 3 years now. You lay out a plan "A", and by the time I'm done (because I've got so much on the go) you land up on plan "C" or "D". But Rome wasn't built in a day. To do it right, costs a lot of money.
