The Skunky Dunk farm

Ok, the rheostat, are the exposed terminals lethal?

 

[Moshmen]

Thanks guys, I'm not sure how I feel about being in your dreams though Cat!
Nightmare maybe.


I 've got some delrin stock I might be able to cobble up something.
If i get it rigid enough I'll only need half the hangers.

Perfect material right there!

I'm a plumber, I don't touch any wire unless the power is totally off. Main breaker. Then I put on thick rubber gloves. Seriously, I hate juice. Even those 9v joke books. I've been hit and don't like it. Call me crazy.

Yeah I know, I'm an electrician.
I was just seeing what folks would say.
I want to mount all 4 of them on a panel up near the drivers.

The electricians were the only ones that made mo $ than us toolmakers, but I tell ya I seen bad things happen to good men! In the 70s and eighties safety wasn’t really a thing

Electricity has no conscience!

So i have a question for you master growers.
It's probably a simple answer, but I have a some mind.
As I've stated earlier in this thread, our city water has a average PH of 8.
I have always used a PH down from GH and I assume it is made with phosphoric acid.
This is my question.
By using this acid in my 55 gal barrel for my dechlorinated water source (it's heavely aerated) is it defeating my organic teas? Killing my microbes and soil?

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Working!

Let there be light!

So ya ought to see these babies with the mover on.
They almost bounce into each other, more end to end than side to side. I guess good for coverage but not good in general.
Was thinking maybe a dense foam block with notch in each end to straddle the narrow ends too stabilize them.
What do youuns think?

How about some stiff wire like coat hanger?

can u cut some pvc pipe and use it for spacers

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Thanks for the info I'll take a look at those strains when I get a minute

Bud in that picture was the second best I've ever smoked, the best was a few years earlier it was Columbian Red & it was devastating:

you mentioned the real skunk#1, that's the first thing I looked for when I started growing again a few years ago but it's not around anymore sadly, after that it seems pretty much all the same now :/

How about some stiff wire like coat hanger?

Both of those could work and well.
I do want something with a little flex to it.
Had to make an appearance at a family BBQ, yummy!
When I get home I'll get the other 3 lightes fired up.

Monday morning, again!
Got some things accomplished yesterday.
Then took a break and went to son's for bbq.
He just finished his Chemdog OG and GSC. The OG was bomb!
First grow for him.

 

[SkunkyDunk]

So I'm on the trek again.
Got a single panel fired up yesterday along with filling my Smart Pot 6 foot Long Bag with 7 bags of FF. Added 4 oz. of assorted guanos to soil and mixed in.
Watered it in with PH'd water and coco wet, covered with plastic bags to even out.
I'm enjoying my morning pot of coffee now getting ready for a full day of gardening.
Plans are to get 3 other panels wired up and moving my crop in under their new sun.
Will it all happen?

 

[SkunkyDunk]

And they are on!

 

[SkunkyDunk]

My malnourished babies!

Thanks, I think I'm just gonna use zip ties for temporary, at least until I get everything under a net and spread out flat.
