She loves playing with the plants. All summer she would sit in the garden, pulling weeds and dumping dirt on her legs! Lol she's gonna have her own strawberry patch next summer...

Thanks man, but I don't have any screens over em yet. Just using screws in the sides of the buckets with string to tie em down and get em spread out. Once they get a couple inches taller, I'll put the screens over em. I use 18" 2x2's made into a square with legs. I put a few screws on each side and use string to make a grid. I'll let em spread till they fill the square and then flip em. Last time the best plant I had from this method was something like 5.5 oz... I'm hoping to get the three biggest girls to give me at least 8 this time, and I'm hoping by that time the smaller ones will be big enough to give me at least 4 each..

Got some new pics for y'all. Got the 9x12 room upstairs set up and light running. Tonight will be the first 14 hour darkness the girls in the 1'x3' flood table will be getting.

Finished putting together the cloner, too. 24 sites right now, but I think I'll be able to add two more rows of 7 and will keep em underneath the humidity dome.

And here's a shot of the tray with it's plants in it. Is it a bad thing that I'm not quite sure how many plants are in this? Lol. I kinda forgot to keep track....

Gah! I've got mildew... :(

Just ordered a sulfur burner with 4 lbs of prills. It should be here within the next week. I'm hoping to keep the mildew at bay with baking soda and water with a little handsoap until the burner gets here.

Also got another fan and put it in the big room downstairs. This gives me two stationary and one oscillating fan. I think I'm gonna get at least two more oscillating fans for downstairs and at least one more for upstairs (there's only one oscillating fan on the flood table). Just gotta wait for my partner to come pick me up to go buy more fans...

You can also just use plain water ph to 8.0 to 8.5 until the burner gets there.it won't kill it but it will keep it in check.important to dry off the plants for a few hours before the lights go out.drop that rh to 30 to 40 if you can.hang in there T, peace

Ah, good to know, man! I've never had a mildew problem before, so this is all new to me. I've read a bunch about it, but never dealt with it on my own. Lol. Never used a burner before... got any tips on it's use?

 

[sixstring]

some tips in @BudMuncher thread.i run a wilmont and it holds about a 3rd cup of sulfer and takes about 2.5 hours to finish so I run it for 3 hours and it seems to work well.but room size needs to be considered to,my room is 12 x 20 x 9.5h so I have to use a small fan to move some of it to the far side.its either that or do 2 burns,one on each side.you need to leave enough room in the burner cup so the sulfer doesn't run out and down the side of it,makes a mess lol.

heres that thread,peace https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/threads/my-first-sulfur-burn.60342/

Thanks for the good info, man. Does the smell stay contained to one room? I've got a 9x12 room I get to work with upstairs, but its right next to my bedroom... when I burn in there, its gonna be while me and my wife and baby are sleeping. I'm not gonna get anything through the wall, am I?

personally I would pick a day when you could get a babysitter for a night.and I would only do it if that room is totally sealed off from the main house hvac.if it shares the same furnace and ac I would say don't do it with the kid.my flower room is a small garage,detached from the house.i know a lot of guys do burns in there basements but the only way I would do it is if I could keep my room totally sealed for 24 hours to let the dust settle and kinda harden off if you get what im sayin.this is where a grow tent has the advantage because you can do a burn in those and just keep em sealed off as long as it takes.when I do a burn it smells pretty strong for 2 days,that first day is the worst.
burners aint for everyone though,you'll have to make the call based on your setup.

 

[sixstring]

just noticed the tent a few posts above,is that for your flowering girls or cloning ect?

 

[Tank333]

For now the tent houses the 1x3 flood table that just started flowering under a 1kw hps. Once the main 4kw room downstairs is ready to flip, everything will go downstairs and this room will become the veg room.

I can have everyone stay the night at my mom's when we burn. She's right down the road... I'm sure she wouldn't mind us crashing in their spare room for a night... I could zip up the tent though, couldn't I? It's not sealed 100%, but it's not a bad little tent for only costing me $110 including shipping. Lol. Then the rest of the grow is in the basement. Sealed up about 90% or so with panda film... will that be okay to burn? Say start at 7:30 pm when we put my daughter in the tub upstairs, and don't go downstairs till morning? Our bedrooms are on the second story, a full floor between us and the basement... There is central heat, but we turn that off at night to save gas anyways.

 

[sixstring]

I would say the tent is pretty damn safe being in its own room.but you wont need much time in it,maybe 1.5 hours and not much sulfer in your burner for that one. for downstairs I would seal off all hot air vents and cold air returns that are tied to the house,for a few days not just during the burn.its downstairs that you want to coat the walls of the flower room so do a longer burn down there like 2-3 hours and fill the burner cup to the recomened full line which is usually just over half way.def turn off all ignition sources like the furnace and lights fans ect related to grow equip.you could just use a space heater for one night in the upstairs or better opt would be wife n kid goes to moms,you stay home and make sure things are cool.

first couple times I did my burns I had to see what was goin on in there cause curiosity killed the cat and I didn't wanna be no cat lol,I just pulled my shirt up over my face and went in. but we used facemasks with charcoal filters at the greenhouse job,but we were turning on multiple burners at once.those we fired up at 5pm and the house would be sealed up until the temps built to about 105f the following day and one burn always did the trick.thats why I grabbed one the first time I saw pm in my weed garden.

 

[Tank333]

the furnace doesn't have any intakes in the basement... it will probably be shut off anyways. Why do you say keep ignition sources turned off? is it flammable? I've also read that you should cover your bulb's... is this necessary with sealed hoods?

 

[sixstring]

I have not tested the flammable theory but they always say it in the instructions .No need to cover bulbs in sealed hoods but you will get residue on the glass in the hoods.the design of the burn is to put I thin film or coating of suffer on everything to interrupt the spore cycles and it dies off.i really only see it on equipment that is within a few feet of the burner.but if you try to cover and protect everything you won't get rid of the spores and they are on everything floating in the air due to fans ect.i cover my TV because it's right above where I hang my burner, and 2 ballasts that are real close and fan driven digital ballast.thats it.

 

[Tank333]

Okay, so if my ballasts are outside the room, and everything is basically sealed up, I shouldn't need to worry about what it covers then? Yea, I'll make sure to clean the glass afterwards ...

You have a tv in your garden? lol

Sounds like your set.

It's just a Lil 22inch to watch the Lions get spanked every Sunday lol.this used to be my shop before I started my indoor med hobby :)

 

[Tank333]

The sulfur burner came last night! I'll be running it downstairs this afternoon, and upstairs tonight... Hopefully it'll take care of everything with one burn...

Step #1 in creating new scrog screens: completed!

 

[green bastard]
