Lookin nice and healthy! That girl in the middle is an amazon! lol What all strains you got running in there? And which ones look to have the most potential for ya? Is that a titanium I see in there? :) How did that girl finish up btw?

Hey EP! Im running my old 98 bubba cut thru the buckets. Yea, that is a titanium. The others are a SFV OG, 98 bubba S1's of my own, and some random og's. Im going with the 98 bubba because I know exactly what she likes.

I also have a bunch of smaller g-13 cuts and next time I will for sure do one of those as well. I also cloned all of my 98 bubba s1's and will be running those as well.

As for the Galaxy ballast, it is the 1500. Its not actually called a Galaxy, but its made galaxy, looks like a galaxy. They call it a master blaster. So far its great but I have only had it a day. Time will tell.

EP, thanks for the link, hopefullu those check valves will work!

Got the a/c installed. What a pain in the ass!!

Ahh well, more to come later!

kushpheen · Jan 31, 2010

Congrats on the a/c! can you tell us what a/c model you went with, and any tips that would hopefully make the installation process easier, thx

easypleasie · Jan 31, 2010

Hellz yeah! lol it's a pain in the ass when you have to do everything by yourself. How's she running? I still haven't got around to vacuuming my lines. I installed the split over 3 months ago!

Lost · Jan 31, 2010

I went with a Harbor Point 24k btu DC inverter a/c. The thing is so quiet. Quiet was big for me because my neighbors are so close.

The only thing I would say to do is to read the vacuum instructions and make sure you have the correct valves open and closed when you do the vacuum..

This sucker is COLD!! Very happy I spent the extra $$ for something that works well.

I actually installed the a/c in a lerger adjacent room. I still need to put up a wall in that room so I have about a week or two before I can move everything. Even then I will be so far into flower, ill probablly wait till end of harvest. When the room is relocated it will be more plants for sure but not more than ten. I can grow up to 99 so the numbers is not an issue, its space...

Pics to come soon.. We have flowers!!!

easypleasie · Jan 31, 2010

Quiet and energy savings are what sold me on those inverter models. Glad you didn't cheap out! So, which valve do you open/close first? lol I haven't even looked at mine yet...not so motivated with it being so cold and wet out.

Lost · Jan 31, 2010

Ahh easy, keep the liquid line CLOSED, and go ahead and open the gas line and vacuum.. Its kind scarry because you don't want to fuck up and open the wrong on and have the refridgerant come out with out vaccuming the lines. I hear that for 410r that even the moisture in the lines can ruin it in short order. Once the gas line is evacuated (it evacuates the liquid line as well i guess :), you can open the liquid line up. Took about 20-30 min for it to get cold but once it did, it got really cold!

Please consult the instructions tho, because this is how mine worked doesn't mean yours will be exactly the same..

easypleasie · Jan 31, 2010

I'll give it a shot sometime soon...just gotta remember to do it with a clear mind lol

Lost · Feb 3, 2010

I would like a pound a plant. Anything else is gravy. The two smaller ones will probablly be short and the larger 2 should be well over :) Remember its Kush :)

easypleasie said:

Yup, 1500 in the middle. Im having to turn 2 of the 1k's on for only 1/2 a day (too much heat till I move rooms)

mrdizzle said:

Great! I don't have the huge masses of roots I have had in the past and I attribute this to the plant getting everything it needs easily and not needing to create a huge rootmass to keep itself fed and hydrated :) Im sure the Roots excelurator and great white are helping quite a bit here.

mrdizzle · Feb 3, 2010

yea i realized you gotta flip when the roots start swimming. once they hit that water they explode, and the plant does too. wheres the mini split

nor cali farmer · Feb 3, 2010

again great job and nice pic's

I put the mini split in the next space over. The next room over is twice the size and Im already having problems getting around the room with only 4 buckets. As soon as I finish up this round, ill move everything and expand to somewhere between 6 and 10 buckets :) I have to run a 18 foot wall before I get that setup and since I have 6 or more weeks to get it done, im not really busting my ass to get it done. I should be able to run 7-8 1k and 1500's with the new a/c. That will pretty much determine the size of my main room setup, keeping the current flower room for veg and clones..

Works in hydro great. (colonize roots in hydro) You just have to remember to feed them, lol. I feed them sweet from botanicare. They eat sugar.

I use the full House and Garden line, minus drip clean. So for roots its root excelurator and Great White as reccomended by house and garden. I feed those and the house and garden enzymes Sweet Grape. I also add trace amounts of Gravity from Humbolt Wholesale. At the very end add humbolt Nutrients SnowStorm, but realize you have to throw all tubing away if you do. You should throw tubing away every run anyway. :)

Happy Growing!
