well sucked it up and bought 4 new bulbs today.

cleaned up all the lenses on the reflectors and I need to get another filter for the intake of the light since its from outside

ladies are looking pretty good. got some plastic trellis shit from the hydro store and already don't like the stuff. sucks but oh well.

thinkin about buildin something similar to RollinEndough but kinda spent on the budget at the current moment.

Are you using the trelis for your scrog? I made mine out of 1/2"pvc, zip ties, and 2"x3" garden fencing from Home Depot. Total cost was about $20. That was for a 3'x8' screen.

Super setup man!

I picked up the same tomato cages and ran them last run. They worked pretty good but, like you are doing I need perimeter control. I grabbed some "rabbit" fencing from Lowes (just cuz it was the only thing close to my needs). I plan on hookin it up tonite. Goin getto style w/ the zip tie's. If it's worth anything I'll post it up for ya. My last run (Casey Jones) yielded on average 6.5 oz's per plant. I use the cap ebb 'n gro system w/ a few modifications. I'm using 5 gal buckets w/ nets. I'll start a thread on my grow as soon as I flip the lights. I'm running Casey's Dawg, Casey Jones, Blue Dawg and XJ13. All are 2wks in veg right now.

I'm lookin forward to watchin your thread man.

Pulling up my seat, nice to see someone using built-in wall AC.
How are you going to maintain the humidity in the room?

yo thanks for the input.
I think im going to use the 2x3 fencing or.....

I may just put a shit load of eye hooks in the wall and run a string trellis across the entire room. not sure yet.

kinda put up a trellis yesterday to see how it would be getting around under it. and boy oh boy is it a breeze.

super stoked
link me to your thread holmes

Plants have fully recovered from nutrient burn and actually started to starve.
I have since bumped them up slowly and the are sitting at .840 ec (420ppm)

Things have really started to bush out and I need to get a trellis in there stat. Co2 tank ran out two days ago and need to run to the dro store when time permits but there are much more important things in the works currently.

pic update tomorrow eve.
maybe i'll have a trellis in! sure need it

Hell yeah you got that room dialed by the looks of it. Lovin the shot of the trunk, they are getting ready to hold some weight!
 
#76
so I'm thinkin im going to put in one of those shitty string trellis's in, in about 2 weeks
either way I'm def not going to get one in this week

finally found the threshold for my plants and they are def tapping out at 450 ppm's
so now I have to revive them again slightly, and hopefully flip these bitches to flower on saturday.

Thanks everyone.

this shows bout to be poppin off

just totally raped the under growth on these ladies!
should be lookin prime tomorrow.

So I cleared out half a trashbag of undergrowth, lowered the co2 levels to 1000 down from 1300, and started adding flower nutrients.
I'm not going to do a rez swap as it is not necesarry.
Plants do NOT instantly react to lighting changes therefor why would we change the reservoir and give them straight flower nutes? dunno I don't

With my res top offs it requires 100ml or A + B every day to maintain adequate levels.
So I started adding it today and by the end of the week the res should be entirely flower nutrients.

SO 12/12 today! here we go

Pics tomorrow

Already planning on getting the intellidose for next run! Then I can really put my all into the plants and not have to worry about anything.

Im with you and take it eeven further. I run veg nutrients almost till week 4 of 12/12. Then do a 50/50 mix of veg/flower and then on to full flower. But the girls never get flower nutes until there are bud sites.
