Oreoz/Okie out of the dryer. I focused really hard on getting and keeping the lowers clean. Didn’t effect yeild at all and made for a better yield overall

cloner - 10 days cut and every body seems happy.

Veg - P4516/Okie - 40 days from cracking her shell. One interesting tid bit of info for this girl; she is a heavy sleeper and she doesn't want to get out of bed in the morning. Cost me a resv. change before I figured out what her issue really is.

Chemdog #4/Okie - 18 days flower time. She has turned into a beast this run!

Caliblues- 34 days flower time. First run of this line so I’m learning, she has started to fade and foxtails are poking their heads out so I dropped her down to 600 MH for the duration

Chemdog #4 / Okie - 32 days flower
IMG 1843


CaliBlues - 41 days flower - Fade slowed when I dropped down to the 600. Fine leaves just can't handle it. She's laying down some weight right now.

That is some nice garden! How do you get to them for watering or soil checking?

This system is my twist on hydroponics based off of the flood and drain method. Hydroton (clay balls) is my grow medium so there’s no “soil”. Watering is fully automated, my girls drink 8 times per day for 30 minutes.
When a plant goes into flower my job is to train and keep the resv full. Somewhat different than other systems but it works for me

Thanks for stopping by my new friend!!
 
Hey there! Awesome looking set up! I have a question for you. Does the PolyPro board insulate as well as you thought it would? I’m using varying thickness’ of it in my shed and really feel it isn’t as good at insulating 🤷🏼‍♂️ maybe I just had unrealistic expectations? Just curious how its working for you : )

Worthless really. It went on first then I filled the wall cavities from the opposite side

Ok, I was wondering if you were going to say that lol!! I’m currently fighting the climate and feel a lot of the blame is (obviously my own doing) but the damn board. What did you “re insulate” with?

2x4 studded walls so I went with the pink rolls higher the R value the better
