Still need to connect water line from pump/chiller to first bucket looks like Iām going to use this and put a hole in the bucket near the top of the resting water line
Well, Iām no expert. But I did pass out on the couch in the man cave last nightā¦LOL!
Can you cut a notch or keyhole in the top and maybe find a small piece of butyl rubber to make like a flap to cover and prevent light leaks and limit evaporation?
They have it thatās pretty thick but itās still very flexible.
They probably make like, S&M sex suits out of it or something. LOL!
You could probably use rubber cement to make a cinching sleeve like the ports in the tent.
Did you end up cutting through the tent?
I know at one point you mentioned thinking you might have to.
On a side note - Iām right there with you on this grow man - except for the RDWC thing, of course. LOL!
I couldnāt stand the 2x4 sitting there idle so I dropped 2 Northern Lights Autos and 1 Gorilla Glue auto this morning. WeedSeedExpress genetics. The NL were freebies for doing direct bank transfer, so theyāre probably 5 years old And I got the GG on a 5 for 5 deal.
I use wet paper towel in ziploc method and beans were dropped around 11 this morning. At last look all 3 had popped. NLs were cracked open and the tail was just visible. The GG had about a 1/16th of an inch worth of tail! Thatās an eager bean!!
Iām gonna use 3gal bags with the Mother Earth Coco/Peat that Iām using on the clones with Jacks and Mammoth P. MKP for a couple of weeks when flowering starts in earnest. Iāll probably get a little mykos into the cup and the pot for that extra boost.
Gonna top at 5th or 6th node , spread them out for a bit and let them roll. I might even let one of the NL just go native and see what she do!
This will be interesting to compare grows side-by-side using different media, but youāre planning on using Jacks too, right? So that will be a common link. Wish I had some ILGM GSCE for a real comparison test.
That would have been very interesting,
I harvested my Blueberry tonight and moved some stuff around so everyone can actually get some light. Which naturally meant I went ahead and dropped one of my Zkittlez - just one, Iāve learned my lesson with letting stuff veg too long (Iām very scared of what my Lemon Tree clone is about to do to my 4x4). Just gonna do the one ILGM Zkittlez and one RQS autoflower whenever it finally arrives. Iāll use the auto to cue me in for next wave of photo flips. hopefully everyone is done in the 4x4 by then.
Oh good news @Graysin on my blueberry
I squeezed a bud last night and what remained on my sticky little fingers actually smelled of blueberry undertones
Once you get past the skunk smell
I think sheās finally āblossomingā so to speak
Ahhhā¦good! Movement from the seeds is promising!
Put my babies in Soloās the other day and got sprouts and damn if I didnāt knock it off the shelf and it landed smack on the top of the cup soil dawn! YIKES!!
Quickly snatched it up and gently dug through the media and found a healthy root and undamaged little shoot! Whew! LOL!
Got up as much as I could and gently set her back in the cup and over-night sheās stood back up and grew up a little.
Dude - she was smack on her top from about a foot and a quarter up! Maybe a little more! LOL!
Iāve got to get the tent ready and get them in there this weekend.
And close to the ground! LOL!!
Dude - you got the set-up going! Thatās for sure!!
Youāve probably had a blast building this thing! I sure hope it pays off and does what you want it to.
Might have to build me one if it works too well! LOL!
I just can;t wait to watch the girls once they get in there. Itās gonna be so much fun!!
Excellent thought on the LST points. Iāve got to pick up some binder clips since Iām using bags now. I couldnāt justify paying for grommets on the bag when clips are so cheap. Ultimately, Iām cheap too. LOL!
Omg I bet your heart skipped a beat dropping that little girl like that. I can only imagine.
My girls are starting to get above ground level. I better finish this build today so I can get them under a light today or tomorrow. Probably going to start them off 24/7 light lol
Dude - she was so tiny too! I swear thatās that saved her. She stood back up and is doing fine now.
And I hear you on the tent - hopefully getting it straight and getting the girls in there today.
My little fish tank LED strip canāt get the proper DLI for seedlings. It comes up a few points short and is probably contributing to stretch.
Plus these auto seed sprouts are smaller than I remember the photos being.
Been a while since I held a baby though. LOL!
Babies are looking good. That last one just has a little nut meat stuck to her it looks like. If it dries up you might have to spritz it lightly to soften it back up. The leaves should have enough strength to bust it off, if not take a toothpick or something and gently nudge it off.
Sheāll be fine.
Itās all coming together and your production line will be up and running soon!! YAY!!
Canāt wait to watch them grow!!
