ok i am using the recommended feed, i will drop back a little on the next feed. seems like she is gobbling it up she’s thirsty every 2 days now. i am giving bloom/boost/cal-mag. 1/2 teaspoon =1/2 gallon water every 2 days. should i skip a feed in between water. like nuit water nuit water… with the every other nuit i could keep full nuit mix but on every other feeding is my thought an question

Not a pro at this but I have had good luck with 75% feed then a 25% to 30% feed with Advance and HF dirt. Are you still using the Bergmans that I did 80% feed then water only and worked great!

Ah ok I used Lotus, at 75% every feed/water, but damn that is spendy, trying Jacks in auto pots, and Megacrop in HF this winter run!

Does this light look like a good option for a 2x2x5ft tent?

Hay DanB see the map there it shows high ppfd near center (red) but that’s a big drop-off at the sides (yellow) suggesting it will only be good directly under the light.

I see what you are saying, It is set for a 2x3 I am using a 2x2 was thinking the PPFD map area would intensify due to the loss of the 1ft on map scale. Or am I looking at it wrong.

Yeah it is nice get any improvment, if youre coming from less as in the case here, I was using a (free) blurple. In a 4x4 :man_facepalming: everything to gain.

In center of light 12in away it’s 1100ppfd and at far sides of tent 550ppfd so i guess thats not bad for a 2x2.

The circled numbers do they look ok for a 100w light

Tent/lung room both staying steady between 68.7f and 73.7, 64/ 66rh. Should they be the same? Kinda feel like they should but thinking they shouldn’t lol

Decided with the early harvest of my first try and all the vegetation I had why not try to make butter lol.

Is also my first try at making butter hope I didn’t screw it up. All together it took 8 hours to make. I fell asleep lol

Well this is what I ended with after clearing the water that separated from the butter.

Strange question anything that can be done with the water that separated from the butter?

Wow thats the greenest butter I’ve seen almost like you put food coloring in it.
Maybe tea out of the water ???

Did you decarb the weed first.
I use the magical butter machine and it makes more than just butter. My favorite is the chocolate recipe and the honey is the easiest to make.
