Mmm upgrades...

Infinity 8 inch 807 cfm, temp and humidity controller.

200w heater with thermostat. 100w no thermostat old one couldn't keep up, nor ever get it above 72f. Least now I'm overkill...

I've been seriously neglecting this veg tent. I again let it run out of feed last week, noticed some wilted leafs. Checked ppm it was 175. Topped off to 400 last week and havnt checked it since. I am more worried about getting the hydro system put back together lol.. Took forever to clean it...
Also seems I spend the majority of my free time trimming weed... Something I'm going to put an end too asap. It's burning me out on the entire operation I got going lol.. Got me thinking buying the shit isn't so bad..

What kind of cheap machines do you all suggest. Small scale.. Under 400$. Pros and cons too plz... Hell even if it cuts my time in half I'm cool.. Anything but an hour per ounce..

I shit you not, another shipment of "massive" was damaged in transit to me..... This is the third time in a row. I have been waiting on this shit for a month now. Three separate suppliers.. Three separate companies, Amazon Walmart and now eBay..

If I were the paranoid type, I'd say someone doesn't want me to use it lol... Anyways the guy has another. I'm bout to pay him to drive the shit, To me personally.

I'm almost done with my flower room upgrades then it's time to hurt them. I cut the hell out of the roots for transplant. Then I supercrop, scrog and defoliate. Without my massive additive, the stunted growth from the stress might be too much for them to handle. Prolly not, but I don't want to risk slowed growth when they have damaged roots.

I'm also off work for another week with positive test results.. Perhaps that's why they didn't deliver.. Cock suckers

Ordered another fucking thing of Massive. Fourth purchase now.. None have arrived but everything else I order does. So it should be here in 7 days. The day it gets here these bitches are going into flower room and I'm taking clones off each.. I'm actually not that mad, at least they get the 2 month veg ive been shooting for.

This res was made Oct 22nd. I've topped it off a few times, this being my last. Only original dose of hydroguard has been added.

Ppms after top off was 175, increased to 500 with the last veg feed/top off. Total water added was around what I started with. If I were to veg them longer, which I'm not, I would have to do a full res change. But since I've only added 25 to 30 gallons, and I started with 25.. It will be ok.

Your a life saver, shit worked perfect. . flew though this trimming. Strait rip it off the branch, drop it in. . spin it for a while, and boom 95% of trimming done lol. . .

NO REGRETS, advice much appreciated!
People comment all the time about crappy trim job they do in a very short time. Maybe i should buy a spare

As a small-time grower who likes variety, I'm all in favor. Some plants will be less happy than others, but variety. When I'm just smoking one strain, no matter how much I like it, it becomes meh.
Gotta spice it up, I like looking at a bag of mixed greens

I like to stay on one strain for a few days and switch. Really get to notice the different effects they have. It's been quite fun doing it this way. I personally could get a better yield using just the same strain and a flat canopy, but.. Hell I thought about knocking it down to 3 strains, 2 of each.. But this variety is hard to beat in my opinion.

Always wondered how well those bowl trimmers worked. $144 is nice, but considering I only grow 2 autos at a time, and stagger a couple weeks apart, I would only buy out of extreme laziness. Which means I'll probably end up getting one at some point 😂 Grow is looking great.

They also make a smaller one. 16" at $108.00

Massive finally arrived 45 days later...

Tonight I leak test the system again, if all goes well I will pump the tap water out and fill with ro. Dunno if I'll have enough time to transplant them.. But by tomorrow night.. They will be flattened like pancakes. Those pictures are always my favorite. I don't think I'm going to defoliate them as much this time.
