[Tranoble]

Im back. Any questions?

[phatsesh101]

haha holy shit like 4years later

so what was final dry weight?

[martyrprojekt]

we all can learn something from this thread. Thank you to those who continue to post on it!

[youngbuck1]

holly fuck man ive been waiting forever for you to come back hah
I have copied your set up exactly with 32 lights that had to be stopped and now im on a smaller 4 light with still the same set up i have lots of questions.

Shoot.

[youngbuck1]

well how much is your electricity bill exactly? because im reaching about 83 kw per hour at around 400 dollars every 2 months and im getting a little nervous

[youngbuck1]

and how far do you keep your lights from your plants? I start off with 3 feet from freshly planted clones then 7 days later when i flip them to flower i bring them down to 2 feet from the plants and i let the plants grow up to the light until they are around 10 inches from the light then i just keep raising the lights keeping them 10 inches until the end of the crop. i cant fucking believe your back hah

That's not high at all. Just make sure you all ways pay your bill on time.

That's about right. Are you having good results?

[youngbuck1]

Well i was using 6 600 watt lights at first because i was hearing they work well. I only managed to get 5.5 pounds of really bad quality bud. I then switched to 4 1000 watt lights and i just got 6.5 pounds of top quality stuff. I am growing og kush and i hear that its harder to grow then other types. usually people can get 2 per light easily with other strains. Im trying to get around 7 this time.

[youngbuck1]

I was also wondering about plucking fan leaves instead of lolipopping the plants because when i pluck fan leaves in week 6 7 and 8 the bottom branches still get alot of light so i get big buds down there but when i lolipop instead of plucking the fan leaves i just get a big mess of leaf at the top and no light gets through.

The OG Kush isn't that difficult to grow. It doesn't yield very well tho.

I don't touch any fan leaves at all. I do take the bottom branches off tho just before I flip the plants to 12/12. Taking the bottom branches off helps to get rid of some of the leafy bud on the bottom. I find you get much bigger top buds when you remove the lower branches.

[green_gardenr]

i just want say that you are a GOD in my book man, you have truely inspired me.
thanks

[youngbuck1]

Okay so you dont even cut the leaf if it is covering bud? I am going to try it this way after this next crop. I am also a little bit confused on how to start with the clones. I put the dirt in and water the fuck out of it until it is all wet. Then i plant the clones and then I feed them with a root inducer and some voodoo juice. Then I water them with ph water 2 days later, then i feed them 2 days later with my regular food. Is that okay or should I feed them with the regular food and voodoo juice right when I plant them. hah sorry for the weird questions I just want to get everything exact.

[BigGSpot]

Good job. Just got done with all 21 pages and I don't have any questions for you-I bet you weren't expecting that.
I registered to this site just to read this thread, but I might just make it back around to see what this community has to offer.
Promising so far...

[cture]

Tranoble, great to have you back around here!
Do you still use the same nutrients have added anything to the list Like sensizym etc?

[cture]

And by the way, growth exel production has been stopped what do you use?

[youngbuck1]

growth plus

[Apollonia]

Congratulations on that jaw-dropping grow! What was your g/Watt ratio?

[wraithe]

the title says 3pounds per 1000watt hps, so that breaks down to 1.344g/perwatt

[cture]

1lb=0.5kg
which means the rartio is 1.5 g per watt

[cture]

Tranoble show some pictures that show detailed your room setup.
Do you use 1 AC for 2 rooms? If so then show how. What is aout your fertiliser list, is it still the same? Waht ia you feeding schedule now?

[BrockSampson]

hey man, sweet setup, i was wondering if you had any drainage in those planters

[Johnnyrex]

First of all Congrads on your bad ass grow its very impressive
I was wondering I have a tent setup that 9'x9'x9' which. I exchange air mass and filter it through
Carbon filter. After reading ur setup I would like to try it my only concern
Is that the tent is in my bedroom having it sealed with CO2 would that be
An issue for me health wise? I be running a portable AC in the tent also with 2 1000w aircooled lamps
You think I could have success with that kind of setup.
Thanks once again for your time and input.

[phatsesh101]

co2 can be dangerous cause its an air heavyweight and push other air out like oxygen then you can suffocate.

[Elecktrablue]

That is one of the most beautiful sights I've seen! And, you've given me new ideas about how to re-do my grow room. Thanks!

[hanh24]

quick question at what ppm should the room be?

[Loafyboy]

1lb=0.5kg
which means the rartio is 1.5 g per watt

Actually 1lb = 0.454kg
So 'wraithe' was pretty close, I work it out at about 1.362g per watt.

[cture]

well I should have deleted my unit converter for that, 1.36g is big difference from what I was heading for!
Thanks for converting,:) man

[deleafer2220]

and yet he's gone again..lol this thread is entertaining yet insightful on great ideas and methods

[Johnnyrex]

does anybody know i tried looking for it in the whole thread about the 5 day veg time if he dosent use co2 does he still keep his temp at 85? and then after 5 days or 12" which ever comes first he flips on 12/12
Also the AN that feeding program is not the same as in the web site
can anyone break down the feeding for a 20 gallon res i have
Mirco/Grow/bloom how much each week?
Mother earth tea bloom how much each week?
B-52 how much each week?
carboload powder how much each week?
voodoo juice how much each week?
BigBud how much each week?
Overdrive how much each week?
Final phase how much each week?
I know its a lot of questions but dont understand the program or do i follow the program that AN has on the website but i dont think he uses that program thanks everyone on this help

[shaggytodope]

:mad:Um you guys should read a book for all ur basic questions for real, bombarding this guy with these questions is rediculous. I understand we all must learn somehow but there are forums that answer these kind of questions in detail. Nice job Tran!!!!!!!!!!!
Tranoble,

A couple of questions for you if you dont mind..

can you tell us how long the co2 gos on for each day. does it still go on and off during the dark cycle?

how many circulating fans do you have going in there. do they run at night also?

do you let the temp fall below 85 during the night cycle? do you need a heater to keep the temperature above this level

do you use a thermostat and humidistat. if so what are the settings set to?

do you adjust the temperature of your reservoir at all?

how far above the plants do you keep the lights?

Thanks. Really neat work..

[smokinjay4u]

how did the kush work for you and does it do okay with 4/2/1 im just setting my area up and am planning on running with kush

[Johnnyrex]

Hello does anybody know during the veg 5 days what he feeds or
Does he just foilar with AN growth ecel if anybody can chime in that would be great
Thanks once again

[wildcatsweetart]

Hey I came across a Blu-Ox 29000 generator and a propane regulator. However I have no instructions. It has 3 connections for ducting, two on the top and one out of the back. Any advice on how to hook it up would be great.

Thanks your room looks wicked.

[PAYBACK]

NICE! HOW LONG DO U VEG FOR? CO2 HELPS!

[chickenhaulerz]

at DOT com wouldnt let me enter it all on last post thanks hell never mind it wont let me tried 3 times

[Micsog]

Tran
i get $7,500 a lb. from socialites maybe we need to meet

[medibus]

where did you purchase your thermo plus ac and how does it work for you? Would you recommend this machine over a portable machine like this one:
EdgeStar AP14000HS Portable Air Conditioner (http://edgestar.com/products/portable/airconditioner/ap14000hs.asp)

[bodonovich]

[CovertCarpenter]

REP+

[Daliakayla]

Cool stuff

[Daliakayla]

Im back. Any questions?

I wanna email u a question.

[Phunnyman]

This thread has given me so much info, thanks tranoble and all who posted for the inspiration!

I'm using much of this for my 48 pot dwc system with strawberry haze, lsd, sweet tooth, crimea blue, and some mexi weed seeds I'm growing just fo fun to see what comes out of them. I've learned much about the sealed room and co2, cloning, and hittting it hard!

4x1000 watt lights with digital ballasts, aircooled lights, portable ac, all routed into the attic through filters. Daddy is loving the forum!!!

By the way for all you lE pigs who troll the forum, my grow is 40 miles away and you'll NEVER find it. Thanks for enforcing a law based completely on racism, lies, deception, and corporate greed. Enjoy sucking my nutsack after a file mile jog. Have a another donut and go to hell!!!

G spot

[breitling712]

Dam tranoble that's a really sweet set up, I am new to the board but I have grown for a few years
I got a few questions I wanna do a sealed roomed like yours (first time trying a sealed room) and I am also in the sticks in Bc about 4 to 5 hours away from the city, I wanna know if your using ac or chillers cause you know out here we use well water and would not have enough water to run chillers, if I was to run ac would it be a lot of power?
I will be running about the same amount of lights as yours or
20*1000w max can I run 2 rooms with the same ac or chiller same for the co2 gen on the same flip flop system?
I have never use a flip flop system before, I went old school and ran 1 light per ballast before and vented air in and out
hope you can help me out
if you live in the same area mabye we can hook up 1 day and blaze :smokin:

[BudSmoker510]

Wow old thread but great outcome!

[Ziltoid420]

So Growth Excel doesn't exist anymore.

Anybody know an alternative ? Tranoble really made it sound like it was a major factor and I'm very interested in trying something similar, if not the same but renamed by AN.

[weeddaddy50]

You do understand that tranoble has not been posting for like 4 years right? and this thread is over 6 years old right?

I know this because I have read every post in this thread.....it a great learning tool.....read it all.....

there are many products like growth excell....do some home work and your will find some.

Yes, I realize this. I have read every single word and even copied Q/A into a file. I'm asking anyone whose read this thread, not Tranoble. However I've been unable to find anything like growth excel, and trust me, I have looked.

I have no qualms admitting failure, and being very interested in this nute and not finding any info has been vexing me.

Something I'm trying to change for '11 is doing things different. I've got some experience, but I've basically done my own thing and gotten my own results. So this time around I'm trying some new things, but honestly I've never looked outside of the nutrients I currently use.

So with an open mind and lots of questions I go seeking for new things to use this year, in hopes of positive change.

I understand that makes my questions seem very nooby, but I do have some experience, and the FAQ's I've read haven't quite solved my issues. So I'm kinda looking for opinions of others to help enlighten me to other products I may enjoy.

I think true word of mouth reviews beats trolling discount-hydro or some other website and just reading product descriptions.

[tikiroom]

I believe B-52 is like Growth Excel

[weeddaddy50]

I use B52 from advanced....you can feed with it and spray it on the plants works excellent.....

good luck

Quick question about the Nutes.. I am using the Gen Hydro equivelant of everything you have mentioned in your thread (Only using genhydro because I had already bought the nutes before I found this thread!) My question is this.. I am using the "Drain To Waist" feeding method which to my understanding is typically used for growing in soil (IE: the Nutes are not re-used). The problem I am having is the conflicting info regarding the PPM. Throughout the whole plant life cycle, the feeding schedual doesnt get any higher than 600-800 PPM? I see that you typically set your Co2 to the same value as the ppm in your nutes.. so Im just wondering if you are using a Recirculating feeding schedual (for hydroponics)? The ppm on the recirculating schedual seem to match the 1200-1500ppm that I commonly see in these forums.. Just wondering if someone could clear this up for me? Should I be doubling my nutes?

Thanks!!

[XXXJAYXXX]

Growth Plus is the same as Growth Excel.. You should be able to find it at most hydro shops.. Its basically a seaweed extract...

THE SEALED ROOM

Listen im not very good at writing this stuff down. You can post reply's with any specific questions and I will answer them best I can. My pictures of my room are 1 week from cutting down.

Based On A 4 Light Room. Pictures are of a 8 Light Room.

I start by sealing my room as best I can. From there I start by building a 8ft by 8ft box with 2x6.
Then I screw 2 sheets of OSB 4x8 sheets to the bottom (sort of like a water bed box).
I line the inside with polly making sure not to get any staples on the inside of the beds.
I put 4 bags of Shunshine #4 Mix into the bed making sure to break up all clumps.


Do you do anything for drainage in the beds? like make holes or is the plastic totally sealed? Also are those beds raised and how/with what, and how high? Please let me know.. thanks

[Shovelhandle]

old thread here, folks really old...
