What a medical grow SHOULD look like...

[Funkfingers]

Looking green, and c girl.. can't wait to see the show..

Bloomblastic FTL! At least from what I hear and hommie got it for free. :P

Back to koolbloom and gravity/snowstorm for him. And not its not my shit its a hommie that does big things. just sayin'..

Edit: Train a bitch... No need to choke a bitch... Usually..

Nice looking grow dude - Jesus, you med state cats are outta control :afroweed:

Now Lost, what does "FTL" mean? I assume it's not good as he went away from Bloombastic.........curious because that was going to be my variable in my new grow - half straight Lucas, half Lucas with Bloombastic.

FTL=For the Loss....not good...lol

But to each's own...I've seen good results with it, but I think it is very strong and has to be used in moderation.

Bobby- I'd love to see you do a side by side comparison with lucas!

Nice room bro. Cali? I don't see a lot of ECSD around here - SD-yes, ECSD-no.

Q: when you use a blooming nute like KoolBloom or Bloombastic, do you cut your base nutes down, say 50%? I burned the crap out of mine using the rez recipe (1 full tsp KoolBloom). I wonder if I should have used half strength base nutes or diluted to a certain ppm.

icmag is alot of small growers...they dont like big growers...so i came here as well!

 

[Green Mopho]

what size chiller are you using for this?

There are a total of 6 seperate 16 bucket systems, 5 gal each, with the 27 gal tuff box as a control box on each. I calculate it at right around 80 gallons per system. Each 80 gal/16 bucket system is chilled by a 1/10 HP chiller on a dedicated pump and return. 1/10 HP is a bit weak for 80 gallons, but the buckets are insulated and the AC unit is rocking hard in that room, so temps are in check and the chillers don't have to work hard.

Ic put me on perma all site ignore basically a shut up ban for eternity and I just spent 50 hours trimming over the past few days your setup is very nice :sun

Your pimp box is definitely controlling the whores.

Peace. :sun

Yea, same shit with me...I can post, but no one can read my posts...LOL....

Not California, but Colorado! The new Weed Mecca!

I mix my nutes according lucas recipe, keep ppms on the low side ~1000 starting out, and I start adding powder Koolbloom at less than 1/4 of the recommended strength after the end of the stretch period (15-21 days depending on the strain). I don't do res changes, so I just do add-backs with water, and when the ppms are too low, I add back micro and koolbloom and/or bloom, depending on what the girls need. Powdered KoolBloom does have some N in it, so if my plants are in need of N I'll just add back a small bit of micro, and then bring my ppms to where they should be with the powder KoolBloom. However, some other strains require much less N and can do the leaf claw thing, so I just give a small splash of micro, and adjust ppms with regular bloom (the pink shit). This way you slowly increase your P-K over time. In DWC, you can use regular bloom and kool bloom interchangably, you don't necessarily need both present.

I'm not a huge believer in boosting your P-Ks to insane levels during bloom. I little boost is all you need, not these insane numbers like 0-80-50 used at the recommended strengh, thats how you burn your girls out. Its all about reading what your plants want and knowing what is in the shit you are giving them. With additives included, I try to stay under ~1200 ppm. I have run them much harder in the past, but some strains don't like it, and it takes a longer flush, and probability of nute burn in RDWC is very high!

Most of my addbacks will usually adjust the ppms and pH without needing any pH up/down or additional nutes, just the water is enough. Seems about 1 in 4 addbacks require nutes, 1 in 3 requires pH adjustment. However, everytime I add water back, I do add some Aquashield to go with it.

I've noticed that! Most of the big shows on icmag, either the member gets banned or leaves, or trolls come and fuck up a whole thread. Shit is retarded over there. I swear some of the trolls work for the mods/admins. They try to entrap you into breaking the TOU.

I'm loving all the big UC and DWC grows here at the farm! Glad you guys are enjoying my setup, it was hard to build, took a long time, but its rocking hard now!

Coloradough fo' sho'.

Huffington Post pic?

 

[RollinEndough]

Was easier than taking mine out of the bank. Path of least resistance each and every.

 

[Lost]

Much respect and all, but Colorado has a ways to go before its even close to Cali. :)

 

[RollinEndough]

Neat things happen every day. We could be neighbors before ya know it!

 

[Lost]

Your right. In millions of years you guys might catch up...


By then Colorado will be a colony of the Empire of California.




Lulz!

 

[Lost]

I mean shit, you "Just" discovered the "pimp bucket" right?


tee hee hee!

 

[RollinEndough]

I was born and raised in Cali so I ain't trippin'.

Coloradough is beautiful, spacious and feelin' fresh at the moment though.

 

[antimatter]

Yhea im feeling like dropping pk boosters next round and just watching the girls more for pk deficiencies i'll give em a boost if they tell me but none of this doing because everybody else uses em religiously.

I don't like additives in general and I have no idea telling of whether or not there working since there are so many variables. Were a cash machine for the hydroponic suppliers and we must remember that and join them eventually, this is just the beginning.

Your right, it will take Colorado millions of years to catch up to California. It will take Colorado that long to breed 40 million idiots. By then the Empire of California will be rightfully returned to the United Mexican States.

Man, I know you guys are joking, but I seriously hope no "rivalries" like that pop up for real. It could be really bad for our image to the public.

 

[antimatter]

Canada > Colorado > California

Its obvious my ratios are correct

mad yet california:fighting0085:

What do you mean by rivalries? Other med states poppin up? Michigan will own us all soon enough! Lol
