Have fun reading.
I learned cloning in 1982, dumb luck.

2022 Forum reading introduced me to the concept, “re-vegetating”.
Practicing took experimenting and actually presented me with the Summer 2023 Harvest ((gone 6 weeks and cant grow indoors J/A/S).
Still working the concept with experiments

@Putridsmell : Hey Man how’s it going, my lights are Freelicht 4’
Full spectrum 350 watt led ,
4 ~ $ 139.99 AMAZON, Grow tent is made by Cost way $$~? ,
4’ w ~ 8’ L ~ 6’-7" T , they have 12,000 hrs on both lights, Tent,
The complaint is , after the Tent went up man was is wobbly !
That’s why you see the bamboo bracing , on the vertical tent poles~ x braced in the middle, and horizontal bracing with 2 job’s to do , structural integrity plus I hook my scrOG netting to it, I have 4 ~ 4’ nets that I stretch in there too ,
Oh yes I do agree with ya , too many girls in one room !
Too many girls in a Bar=Bar Fight
As ya seen I’m quite packed, in seedling stage right now, week’s before
The vegetative stage begins ,
RETIRED!!! and on a budget! $$

1000 watt HPS/MH works well
1000 watts “equivalent” LED, should do good.
1000WATTS CHINESE, clones love (100 max watts USA)

My HLG 350R does 330Watts on the meter.
My Vipar Spectra V1200 535 watts on the meter.
Both have the same output with 535 watts vs 200 HLG (VS 100% and HLG at 50%)

Unfortunately, I bought the VS 300, 600, 900, and 1200, before forum participation.
TBT, the Vipar Spectras heat my unheated tent, in winter and the HLG’s will do my summer indoor growing.

Blew the budget, after the first month.
“$ of Tuition” is the excuse I use now.
40 years to get free (retired) and the truth is, I’m not.
I just don’t get the Biweekly deposit anymore, either.

You wouldn’t believe the lesson I just learned about retirement.
Flashes and insights from analyzing my family and their life patterns.
Dad did 17 years retired, never once complaining about working for Mom.
They actually retired, MOVED TO ARKANSAS, from Chicago, and re-created the life they worked for. GOLF in Bella Vista AR, (property owners have 7 golf courses to play on). Men’s, Womens, Church, and friends, or just together.
Mom’s brother moved there from Calif and outlived two wives, in Ark.
But its Arkansas and USN got no ships there.
8 surgeries equals 50 off island trips, for me.
Now we doing Mrs .
Lets recap… She got shingles for 2/14, Cataract opperation for Birthday, and tooth extraction next week., If she survives shingles complications, now that the blisters don’t drip.

Bad things happen to good people ?
Shingles ~ PLEASE DO NOT POP
THE BLISTERS = bad infection, spreading the virus even further my friend ! Let them dry up on
Their own~ herpes zoster virus ,
How old is she brother? Shingles usually don’t bother a young person, has she ever had chicken pox ? Diabetes ? Shingles usually
Show’s up in people over 50 yrs
Old . Now for the teeth ( falling out) have u guys had COVID ?
I had it back in 2019 , and I have unexpected tooth loss at times
Since then , even today a back molar is 1/2 way out, and the others, my teeth were in perfect
Condition before COVID in 2019
GOD BLESS to the both of you !!!
I’m here for ya BROTHER 24/7

I kissed her, first time in 1963, 7-th grade.
She is my old lady, 7months older.
Blisters dried.
Dermatologist warned me do not touch.
Nerves from spine radiate out.
Dry blisters but body bruised 6inches waist and belt wrap area.
The pain problem is she is allergic to narcotics , weed, THC, CBD, and probably me.
Thanks for the well wishes. We both got the “COVID VACCINE” and 6months later, both hands, both of us, Carpel Tunnel surgery required to sleep.
She has not recovered, pain free, until shingles hit her.

2012, got married and got Shingles Vaccine, both of us.

@DEEPDIVERDAVE : I didn’t get the COVID vaccination shot ,nor have I never ever had any flu vaccinations, I’M DEAD SERIOUS!
nor do I BELIEVE IN IT EITHER!
IT is in my opinion, that this COVID shit is the governments way to mass cull the Herd , think about it, our little planet is way over crowded, getting over populated at an alarming exponential rate ! Humans do have the right to simply exist in this world, but I believe, someone
Somewhere , has tried to curve
The natural balance of things,
Hell I don’t know brother, but as I
Have watched love ones DIE, as
Well as MILLIONS of good people
From a all of a sudden virus,
Kinda makes one WONDER a whole list of possibilities where COVID originated from???..

How do you re-veg them? I took a few cuttings, one from a bud and it survived and grew roots but never grew. It just stayed the same size. After about 3 months I decided to clean everything out and start anew.

What did you use for the tent shell? I thought about buying a sheet of some Oxford 1680 or some kind of cloth like that but I wanted to invest in better lights and fertilizer first. I’d like to buy a better light, I like the hlg 150 I have except there’s no dimmer and it was kind of a b to automate it. I didn’t want to put it on a cheap timer since it pulls quite a bit of power, haven’t metered it though.

I bought an Eva surge protector. Looked nice it was just expensive. Got it for around 80 on sale from 100. What I didn’t know is that you need an apple HomePod to use the automated settings so there’s another 100. It’s nice to control it from my phone but I wouldn’t do it again. I was looking at some of the ac infinity lights that have a timer built in. I’d like to get a 150 watt and something around 300-350.

@Putridsmell Hey how ya doing
Tonight my friend, my tent is a complete tent only, everyone has them cheeper nowadays everywhere on line,than I paid,
Amazon $150.00 now for a COSTWAY grow tent, use caution though, take time shop around,
OH YES ya need a surge protector for sure!!! My lights are
Freelicht 350 watt , LED full spectrum , 4’ long ,u can link them together, 4pack AMAZON
$$ 139.99 last year, I absolutely
hate the phone app timers,
I use just a simple timer ,
Oh and by the time u get everything all together, grow pots , Fox Farms ~Ocean forest
Soil that’s what I always use,
Nutrients, PH ,EC , Hygrometer,
Meters , scrOG netting, water sprayer for feeding your girls,
Inline duct fan/ charcoal filter, for
Your tent/ plants survival,
That’s just the bare minimum!
You will unfortunately spend $$$
On the Hobby brother, BUT I THINK IT’S DEFINITELY WORTH
IT, Oh I forgot FAST FREDDY KILOWATT $$, the system really
doesn’t use all that much $$.
I have 12,000 hrs on total system,
And going strong, Oh most important… LED grow tent tented
Glasses, to protect ur eyes :eyes:

You can probably just add some framing and it’ll make it stable. I’m not a carpenter so I’m not really the one to give any advise about that.

I gotta get a scrog net. I didn’t realize how important trimming and training was until it was too late. Had plants that varied in height. My Maui towered over all others at about 78 inches. Most of the others were between 56-64 inches.

When you harvest what method do you find best? I’ve seen some people that say you should wash the bud, dip it in water mixed with hydrogen peroxide. I trimmed most of mine after they hung for about a week. I tried to do wet trimming but not sure if it was because I had a bunch of experience dry trimming the previous ones but it seemed harder. The crows feet and sugar leaves would rip if they were still wet while doing it dry I could kind of bend them and they break off. Dry trimming seems to be more messy.

It just takes forever too. Most of the videos I watched didn’t zoom in on it or they’d just cut the big fan leaves. Are you supposed to leave all the smaller leaves in it? I tried to cut out as much as possible but I need a better method. It’s the one step in growing I really don’t like. Well besides having to buy a lot of stuff.

@Putridsmell , Morning Man !
The bamboo I used, was for me the perfect solution for fixing that WOBBLY new grow tent problem, zip tieing bamboo to the shity thin tent stakes it came with, as far as drying ur cannabis
What I’m using I bought another
grow tent just to be used only for
Drying, I personally like to keep
The humidity in it at 60% , with temperature 70°~80° With a small heater/air conditioner in there in far corner of the tent with fans blowing, now when I harvest I trim all leafs off down to the Bud , then hang , when you check out ur progress at times
My bud is dry , but the stem is still has a little flexibility to it without snapping!¡!! Very important to keep a close eye
On at this point , when I put my Bud in jars, the Bud that looks too dry Will rehydrate in the jars, DON’T worry, but most importantl ,BURPING ur cureing jars, so MOLD doesn’t take ur stash !!! wow ur maui
78" , now that’s huge right on man ! I hope it was good to you!
LATER MAN and GOOD MORNING to ya,
