!!!😵GROW HACKS 🤯!!

[ThEm4DSc13_TiSt]

What's up guyssssss I wanted to start this thread and hopefully it takes off cuz I know everyone here has a shit ton of useful information in between their ears that could help out some ppl that either are struggling with something, or maybe to prevent someone from having to struggle with some shit that there is usually a relatively easy solution for..
ANYWAYS!!!!!!!......... Any freaking thing u guys can think of slap it on here and help a fellow grower out..
Here's number 1!.
Ever have a little trouble keeping your balls where they need to be!?
Well when ur transplanting your rapid rooters or rockwook into ur clay ballsuse a Gatorade bottle, the little lines around the outside are a good guide for how big to make them, do this and then dig out the middle, when u come back set ur rockwook and ust pull these little sleeves out and they pretty much fill themselves in.
Babies are fkn fragile, anything to help reduce the risk of something dumb happening during transplant is worth it.

Ok I’ve got one I’ve shown it before my simple quick n easy passive intakes I just gut the top n bottom of 1 lt round nutes bottle stick it through the bottom hole in the tent stick some fly screen or you wife’s / girlfriends pantyhose you can see how simple it is , I use passive air because air is 78% N , which allows my to use nutes that are not heavy in N , it a kind of a way I control against Nute burn .

You're saying that your air now contains N because it comes through an old nute bottle???

I haven't had my morning coffee, so excuse my skepticism

No air contains 78% N so I suck it in using my exhaust fan = passive air . The bottles are just keeping the tent hole open pretty simple really .OD .

Have to say bro I like this one! I think me n u would get along ..nice one!

Thanks man yep I think so as well I’m a 3 R type of guy Reduce , Reuse , Recycle, I’m sure they would have something similar where you live nursery should have a few to give away .

What keeps the light out

The black panty or black fly screen if you can rap it around both ends .

Ok so, I'm sure this one is gonna get some flak if anyone actually takes the time to read it, say you are growing Indoors and height and space is an issue, you have your favorite strain, but it's one that loves to stretch so u tend to shy away from growing that strain. Autoflowers are an option but you don't want to have to spend the money to run your lights 20-24 hours a day, but you know where you can get some killer beans of your favorite strain, you CAN TAKE AN AUTO AND FLIP IT BCK TO A PHOTOPERIOD PLANT so u can still only run your lights 12 hours a day during flower saving money on electricity, and still being able to grow your favorite strain, but keeping it shorter in stature like most autos are as opposed to their PHOTOPERIOD cousin.......
I'm gonna leave that there and seenwhat ppl say first before I say anything about how, maybe you guys already know this but it's a scary/cool little trick to know if you have a little faith in your green thumbs abilities anyone can pull this off, and this is proof, this is a blue dream auto that I did this to, I started her the end of February, this is her top right hand plant in the picture, and this is her again today, with a few clones taken from her, still short and stocky as fuck. Maybe this is well known info and I'm just a dumass but figured I'd share incase anyone else wanted to try it out.

I grew tired of replacing intake filters. They are expensive and don't last long...

My tent is filtered in and out, carbon obviously on the exhaust side with two fans pulling air. An adjustable 400 cfm main fan and an additional "100 cfm" in-line booster attached directly to the carbon filter inside the tent. This is enough to be able to balance my exhaust with my intake... Preventing the dreaded balloon tent. My intake requires much less power as it provides almost no resistance. I run one 400cfm fan on the minimum setting. Anything more is too much for the exhaust side.

Here's why,

I made a 5 sided box out of 3/8" spruce plywood and cut a 5.5" hole in one side. The open side of the box is the same outside dimension as a standard furnace filter... I lined the box with 6ml poly sheeting, stapling it well to the inside of the box so it didnt come loose and block the air flow later on. Then sealed it thoroughly with tuck tape, making sure there were no leaks. I made a small hole to match the one in the side of the box. Small enough to stretch over the end of my 6" intake line. Then I went to Costco and bought a 3 pack of the best furnace filters you can get ... for like $75... Seal one to the open side with tuck tape and plug in your flexible duct to the hole in the side, stretching it through the hole in the plastic lining inside the box for a tight fit and whammo! You have a high quality (depending on the craftsman lol), high capacity intake filter for basically the cost of the filters, if you're got any of this stuff laying around.. I had to pre filter it with a towel to add some resistance... The air flow is actually pretty impressive.

I vacuum the filter face every month and wash the towel pre filter... So far I've changed the filter once in 6 months of running... And I didn't really have to, I just had a bunch of filters on hand and happened to have everything shut down for cleaning.

Im free of expensive intake filters! And! I no longer spend half my life dealing with pressure changes in the tent. In fact I spend no time at all on it. Too much pressure in the tent? Throw an 8 x 10 piece of paper or two on the face of the intake filter and watch the air inside the tent balance easily. Adjusting airflow is as easy as sliding the paper off the face of the filter bit by bit... Or back on if you're going in that direction.

Its night time in my office now, I'll follow up with pics later on.

Cheers!

Autos run on almost any light cycle, you can’t remove the Rudy gene with light cycle so you are In No way converting a auto to a photo period. Sorry
Run yer favorite strain on 12/12 from seed if ya need her quick

I e had that plant in that pic on 20-4 (while all the other autos from the same batch of seeds started and finished under 20-4 and I'm pretty sure you can see clearly there are no buds on that plant, but I ha e flowered and harvested one of her clones under 12/12 so u can keep ur apology my friend I still ha e an auto that's clearly in vegetative state rn as we speak, I did not speak of myself changing the genetics of the plant and taking the ruderalis genes out, but I do know a way to keep autos from autoflowering I mean I'll keep that one in veg for another 4 months if u want me to I love ppl that know everything! You guys should just be born with administration jobs cuz clearly the rest of us peasants are retarted

 

[ThEm4DSc13_TiSt]

Maybe I should have worded the beginning of that a little differently, but I was sure it was gonna cause a rukus amongst the ppl that know everything in here already. But as for me I am still learning(i.e. my sub par misworded presentation) but still I know a cool trick! It actually might just be magic tho, but maybe I'm just full of shit? 12/12 from seed works well too if you are battling with height limitations and fighting the electric bill. Lol I'm starting to see i def did word all that fucked up and there's gonna be all sorts of." I'm sry dumass ur wrong" ppl rolling thru, I guess I'll just sit BK and enjoy the show if this were a site for ppl that excel in grammar, I clearly wouldn't have signed up.

I am not apologizing just informing you? Guess I’ll just keep that to myself. Lol sorry you are offended though,
Happy grows
Mosh

 

[ThEm4DSc13_TiSt]

Lol sarcasm is easily misinterpreted as being angry bro my bad and no I'm not offended at all, that whole thing started off me joking around but I really do have an auto that never auto'd been cloning it for like 4 months. It was a total accident how it happened tho.. it's just a short stocky ass non autoflowering auto.. and I k ew already it was gonna cause some shit that's why I said first I was ready for some flak, it's allllll good man,BUT! FOR WHAT ITS WORTH I do know a way to keep your autoflowers from flowering automatically and u can keep them in veg and clone the shit out of them forrr, well that one got put i to dirt in Feb so it's 5 months and it's still on 20-4 and still in veg why anyone would purposely want to do this beats the hell outta me? But I've witnessed stranger things
