Bear has been at this for about nine or 10 months! He is tenacious! Once he sinks his teeth into something, he won’t let go! Until his wife calls him off!

My man thank you for the kind words!I find that comments sections tend to rip my modest indoor grow. I’m an old guy growing for medicine and use small lights and tents. I grow good flower that is better than dispensary and “legacy market” but they rip my gear anyways.
You’re much braver than I am putting everything on the table and leaving yourself open to the abuse. I do use a PPFD app but “eyeball” VPD and do the best I can in my space.
If anyone ever starts a forum for low budget creative problem solvers who grow great weed in spite of budget limitations I’d sign right up.
One thing I found is that anyone who posts a pic of a yellow leaf and asks what’s wrong they’ll get 10,000 pieces of advice. Be sure that it’s sound advice before making any changes or you can dial yourself out and make things worse.
Good luck. Your photos look great so you obviously have experience. I’m a handy man around the house as well and your grow space looks good and should do the job.

Looking professionalI got a small tote! Took a few pieces out of the sprayer set up JJ sent me to make it fit. And BLAM! It’s spraying! Im running a light bleach and water mix in it for a while just to dust the cobwebs off. I need to make the lid blacked out. thinking about getting some 1/4” foam and making the foot print of holes, as the “diamond” pattern that the lid comes with is only 8 spaces. I think I can fit a few more in there to still make it capable of cloning a run. Im still planning on using the larger version at times for custom selection projects down the road (im no where near that yet) still just trying to build my smoke stash with some of the fine ganja!
Had some more chomping happening. Never went and got rodent traps but did spray again and placed a few more yellow stick traps
I’ve got two sick girls. The one has looked unhappy from about the get go but the second one is catching up quickly to being just as ugly. The other three ( two HK’s and Capt’s Gas86’) are looking and doing awesome! Especially the Gas86’, that girl is getting cloned! : ) back to the sick plants. i feel like they are just touchy and prissy to everything im doing to them. The other HK is doing just fine!and the gas86 is fine. im chalking it up to the plant is just not liking life and ill move forward with them accordingly (water and recharge
)

Thanks JJ! It’s getting there huh!? : ) I was running some of our past conversations through the ole noggin and I remember you stating “temps”, and I started thinking… small amount of water = gets warmer quicker… going to have to meet that mitigation on the bridge as were crossing it! Hahaha! Im wondering if maybe a second reservoir in the flower room where the temps will be cooler? Mayb some form of “radiator” type cooling or something?Looking professional!
Be careful with water temps on that cloner. Smaller can mean hotter
what was your temps when cloning? : ) this setup will be in my veg room so temps will probably be on the lower end of 80sIf you add hydroguard to your res. temps are not an issue. It is what allowed me to grow in hydro outdoors in Florida.
Warmth is okay while cloning. You just want your rest to mist your plugs so air stone(s) are needed.what was your temps when cloning? : ) this setup will be in my veg room so temps will probably be on the lower end of 80s
Thank you for the suggestion! Im going to go check that stuff out right now.![]()
Yeah man, same, same. I have no brand preferencesFound this! I’d still give hydroguard a try for sure! But I always! And I mean always will search for an alternative and read up on what other folks try and like : ) thats how I came across this thread lol. Doesn’t mean I wont go with the cheap off brand thing first and fight it for a year before i go the “better” or “correct” route!

Aero cloning always seemed liked to much work to me with very little gain. I just cut em, strip em, dip em and stick em in root riot plugs, on a heat mat and i have roots in 10 to 14 days.Here’s some more trials and tribulations from other members @Cannacraze not sure if I told you I would tag you or not so sorry if your not into the tag![]()

I did this with rock wool in a tray and just sprayed them (I had ok results) I really want it try this style as I’ve seen other here with great success rates : ) and I want to try and cut some of the “tinkering around in the shed” tasks down as I already go a lot going on out there. But not complaining at all! If I need to put in some work im down : )Aero cloning always seemed liked to much work to me with very little gain.

Easiest solution is to run a cycle timer, checked Amazon quick and they run $30 or less. Pumps don’t have to run constantly.Thanks JJ!

I'm with you, I do what I have to do to get the outcome I want but I'm always looking for ways to make it easier.I did this with rock wool in a tray and just sprayed them (I had ok results) I really want it try this style as I’ve seen other here with great success rates : ) and I want to try and cut some of the “tinkering around in the shed” tasks down as I already go a lot going on out there.
