Hello everyone,
I'm a long time consumer and grower, but a first time poster. Many months have been spent debating the desire to share information in public. I chose the farmer for the SSL and image policy.
Although I have read the T&C carefully I may have inadvertently broken a rule in this, my first post. If I did, I will gladly rectify my mistake.
I will post images as I get further along in my security protocol, just to get used to this multiplicity.
The following is my current list of items I would like to further teach and learn about. It is not complete and very much under construction.
1. browse and post safe - not always done easily and not easily done - be aware that encryption atracts attention : i dont like TOR/TAILS - avast,malware, vpn, sandboxie, truecrypt, new email, no JS, - for ultra paranoid - anon 3G - do your business and then go back to your normal personality.
1.B. be safe - be aware that you are doing something illegal and maybe caught, then it wont be a surprise - watch 'never get busted' for the basics. burn stuff, dont leave things lying around, dont skulk around the grow at night, dont ever open the door to cops, dont talk to the cops, get a good lawyers number and let him talk for you, save money for a lawyer, order grow supplies offline and with cash, dont sell, dont tell, install automatic fire extinguishers - they're cheap.
2. get AC - i spent 500 eurobucks on PnP AC - make a stand in a tent. If you can buy a magnum357plus, then you can also spend the same money on an AC and a year of power for it.
3. LED - most work, most create lots of heat. /w AC distance to plants is tiny and results are much much bettter. I have many LED - Magnum 357plus - Blackstar 2013 - Apollo 2012 - Progrow 2013 - DutchHeadShop small - but think hps + AC is FAR the best solution - i would not be able to stack enough leds in my tents for the HPS i can put in and AC.
Veg is fine under led. Roots seem to explode under my magnum plus.
4. led+hps = amazing - working on setting up a space for led at the top and Heath Robinson tree grow with naked vertical hanging bulbs. current is single vert bulb. adding 250 x 2 or 400 x 2
5. fim not top
6. led/hps + autopot + bubble domes + autoflower = beginner winner. (set and forget) mine is pushing up daisies! for real!
7. PH = not always adjust. 2-3 daily. let it rise through a small curve.
8. let them be. if you're a watcher, get a camera you can control remotely and try not to open the room.
9. get CO2. bottles and burners. get both. burners are a pain in summer with no AC. bottles = 10000pm @ 2hours = spint and all life killers. big bottles last forever. Gtools with no AC (meaning I vent lots) and a 34KG CO2 @18h for Autos - going for 2 months and no recharge yet.
10. cant help you with nutes. i run dutchpro. its great.
11. i currently run hydro, aero/ultraponic, ghe waterfarm, airpot, autogrow simultaneous in a Gtools,2 custom bubbleponic, all in ; 1m x 1m tent, 2.4m x 2.4m tent and prepping 12m x 4 m x 4m that's holding some of it for open tree grows. the height is key. full trees need height!
12. get digital ballasts. everytime my ballasts cycled the whole complex had a minute but perceptible tremor in the lights. gone with digital.
13. Dont do 24hour light. give darkness. mini 4hrs.
14. i also run 2 x 300w induction bloom in between the magnums
15. magnum broke a power supply, they're sending multiple replacements.
16. use diotomaceous earth + co2 = total bug control
17. autoflowers are a good first choice. but not high resin without co2. with co2 my 4 auto big bud are filling up the large gtools.
18. i don't smoke anymore, so for me its all about the resin. no flush. 110 % EC @ 2.5, harvest directly off the plant, portion per week use, freeze in turkey bags, use tami (15-20 sec run max) or qwet wash (3-5mins) (on frozen buds, shake till very lightly green. the chlorophyl will deteriorate in less then a day in open air). chuck and burn the cellulose remains.
19. for bho use a tamisium. with a tami, first distill the butane several times. don't use non distilled gas in a metal/glass tube. its bad for you.
20. for better alternative use 96.5% ethanol. if expensive, use tami first and ethanol next.
21. for fully non solvent use dry/wet(messy) ice method.
22. don't heat your Ti too hot.
23. HE new domeless nail is much better for temps then the big boy 29mm Ti nail. I sure wish that HE would make the electronic nail international.
24. Migrant works, you are the man. And then some.
25. food grade limonene is where its at for cleaning glass. Or go for the Grunge off for outside US.
thank the gods for aqualabtechnologies. very reasonable shipping international and phenomenal packaging.
26. Skunkpharm's Greywolf and Heath Robinson are to be blamed for my current desire to add to desire for clear and simple advice.
27. invest in a good quality waterproof EC/PH/PPT meter and CALIBRATE it. put a piece of duct tape on it and write down the date. get a second cheap ph meter and calibrate it the same. check your mixes and then don't screw around with them for several days.
28. if you use RO (recommended only for high EC water.) be aware of CA/MG deficiency towards mid flowering. add Epsom salt.
29. beware the price of CO2 sensors - they're fragile and expensive.
30. burners with a pilot will continue to raise CO2 like hotbox. adding a ventilation system with non return valves for the floor level inlet is needed to prevent CO2 overdose at night.
31. I don't like bio or organic. its not food, everything is filtered by the plant anyway and i don't consume the cellulose that captures it all. too many bugs in organic. too many worms, teas, mixes, melanges etc. too little proper science, too much hot air.
32. As Heath Robinson : he grows with EC 1 and tap water and he does fine.
33. In the European union currently it is legal in all countries to receive seeds sent from the countries that legally can send them.
34. turn the HIDs off when working on them. wait 20-30 mins for respark.
