Well ladies are happy I pulled the stems down some more today they will be do for water tomorrow did the classic weight test on them and noticed early signs of Calcium def so will be adding a light feed and Cal mag to their next watering. Will be cutting clones sometime in next week did inventory of air pumps stones hoses rinsed lecca yesterday so will be building bubbler in next few days just trying to determine if I want to use 3" net pots I have or build a single basket/tray for 8 plants?
Lmao can tell I recently moved here found a pair of shoes I’ve been hunting for since Oct hidden in box as I moved stuff into crawl space for storage. Was my deal with the misses I would make storage room while I made space to grow in.
Will be running my DWC using AN’s 3 part ph perfect not strictly to their chart and with no special additives just pro silicate and Cal mag will be flowering 1 plant in soil starting flip same time as I cut clones with same nutrients. I simply want to see whether all the extra additives in flower are just a cash grab will show and tell as my lady grows :wink:

No bud blood, great white, koolbloom, all this mammoth stuff, sweeteners, cleansers…nothing?

what is the classic weight test?

Finding and losing things during a move…shoes are good, finding money in a pocket is better.
That space you dug out must be kinda large, storage boxes now, and we all know, happy wife…

I knew it , awesomeness right there especially in a closet .

Wow! Very impressive, and ambitious job you’re doing! You’re obviously pretty serious about growing. I love watching people work at something that they have great passion for – I’ll bet you love every minute of it. :wink:

I stand in awe, sir.

Not ambition I purchased a yard for my dogs and a garden the house was secondary so I knew what I was getting into have done construction work off on for years and got the place at a steal so which meant needs work. So couldn’t afford to spend extra money on smoke having equipment already just seemed logical to create a space for me bartered with the misses a new bathroom pantry and some extra storage and I could do what I wanted in the crawl space lmao. The extra cash it brings in helps too means reno’s get done faster and I don’t get cabin fever during winter while I’m off work that and I am less grumpy lol

LOL! I like how you negotiated the crawl space with your wife! Does she know what will be in the crawl space? LOL! My husband is horrified that he sleeps next to my grow tent!!! My fault, though, I forgot to negotiate. :laughing:

She was mad enough when I started growing again last year at a friends so pretty sure she still holds her reservations but I am pretty stubborn so this way she got something she wanted out of it I’d have done it regardless just without her blessing or feedback on where or what strains lol

@FloridaSon we can clutter my journal since that’s just the way it’ already is lmao 30" height constraint and you need 4-6" space from your cfl’s plus size of pots what does that leave you to work with? I assume you know how to super crop? you want to scrog it can be done straight from super cropped plant things to consider would be as described above and keeping your leaves out of you medium clearance and space
