Good luck on going perpetual. On the first pics you posted (pic 2 specifically), is that some sort of muffler on the exhaust fan?

Prob a carbon filter for smell....
No, what IS that?
well, i needed ventilation. i bought a 6" inline duct fan but i only had a 4" hole bit. so i got a 6" to 4" reducer to make the inline duct fan fit the hole i drilled.
got my entire room (mostly) cleaned up. if you guys wanna see, i'll post pics of the (for now) setup later.
oh, p.s. i'll be on xbox live in about 1.5 hours. if you want to play, my gamertag is GrayHam84.

ooh, not a big gamer myself. Sorry bro.
its cool. just throwing it out there.
i would play with ya golden, but i've already been through two 360s (RRoD). i am gonna get another one though, and i'll game with ya!
i wanna see some pics!
-shake
hells yes! a fellow canna-gamer! did you have your 360 vertical or horizontal? i heard horizontal can increase chances of RRoD. i'm LSTing the branch, and i'll have pics up tonight.
okay so here's the pictures. wasn't really sure what to take pictures of. so they're kinda random.
1st pic is just some new growth on the clone that should be ready for the flower cab in 2-3 weeks.
2nd pic... hooray! the start of life anew! crappy pic, but you can see the roots developing, both foreground and background. (background should be ready for flower cab in 4-5 weeks)
3rd pic is my sick new air pump (bought today). doesn't have a rating i can find, but it powers my 14" airstone perfectly! never so many bubbles! thank you for crushing small business owners, wal-mart! you've allowed me a sweet air pump for fifteen dollars! :)
4th pic is the clone/veg thermometer/hygrometer. the temp dropped from 76.6* and the RH dropped from 60% from opening the cab for the previous pics.
5th pic is the flower cab thermometer/hygrometer. looks close enough to perfect for me!!!
two more here...
1st pic is the clone/veg cab from afar. to the left is my nutes and supply stash.
2nd pic is flower cab from the corner angle. sexy, says i.
quick p.s., thanks to all who've given the ol' 5-star rating to my thread. thanks deeply for the faith.
GG your new toys look like fun....I like your hygrometers.
I got the dread 1 star on my thread, I even know who gave it to me! One of my friends. LOL.
Catch ya later.
can i average you out to 3 stars? lemme see...
you soooo crazy GG, i don't need no badges...........
What's up Goldie? How's your grow?:)
ha ha! goldie... old high school nicknames resurface... well let's see...
i was gone for an early family christmas this past weekend. was gonna raise my lights, but felt comfy where they were relative to the plant. once i got back, i was not disappointed. they grew, but not into the light. the clones are doing okay. the smaller one has about 90% yellow leaves, but roots coming in well. no real awesome updates, but by next monday, i'll switch the big cabinet to 12/12.
Cool. I came by while you were gone a few times to check on the girls, make sure they were allright! :)
nice. hope the laser grid didn't give you too much trouble. :)
No prob. I did eat some peanut butter while I was there tho. . sorry!
I used to install those laser grids at work, I know all their secrets! BWwwahhahahha
better not have been my super-chunk! that warrants death!
oh sh..it! It WAS the super chunk. I made some fire crackers for us while you were gone. Have a couple, then let's talk about a pardon...........;)
Hope you are having a Merry Christmas. Did Santa bring you anything good. Here's my list if you see him:
1) Queen of the planet (I've been asking for that since age 4, he never gets it)
2) 400 watt MH/HPS lights, I want 2 more at least
3) More grow equipment.......including new nutrients, soil, pots.
it seems you only removed a minimul amount of the super chunk. pardon granted.
my x-mas wish list:
1. 4-bulb, 2' T5 veg lights
2. 400W digital ballast, HPS bulb and MH bulb with Euro style reflector and 6" can fan
3. more super chunk
Whew, reprieve from the row!
I keep asking Santa for weed, but no dice, must be some deal at the Canadian border or something. Merry Christmas!
p.s. Just saw a sign for Ho-Made Chili.....they got pissed off when I asked about it.....:)
hahahaha:giggity::giggity::giggity::S2::S2::S2::S2 :Quote:

so, i'm currently at work. (i know... productive, right? :)) once home, i'm gonna post update pics of the clone and "the branch."
hooray! the "beginning signs of life" pic on the previous page has officially started a bad-ass root system. i've given up on cloning the opium strain for now. no prob, as a pal has a good mother plant of it.
so, i know i said 12/12 will start monday, but i just may have to do it earlier. no complaints here, but i'm gonna take 2 more clones from the branch first.
i guess just stay tuned, everyone.
stay safe

ugh... sigh...
so, (again) i'm a bastard with no pics for now. i got really involved with grow work last night and when i was done, i just wanted to crash out.
so for now, just a text update. last night i moved the bigger clone into the flower cab. debated a while about switching to 12/12 then and there, but decided to leave it on a veg schedule to let the clone get some of those delicious canna nutes and acclimate to the more intense light. i was not prepped at all for this move, so i had to light-proof another 2 liter before i could put her in the cab.
i also decided to do a reservoir change on the bubble cloner. this was because i took 3 cuttings and wanted the best for 'em. so, dumped the old water, disinfected with lysol, then gave a good rinse in the shower. i also disinfected the air-stone, the tubing for the air stone, the heater, and the floating thermometer. these all got a good rinse too, especially the airstone. then refilled the reservoir, pH-ed it down to 5.8, and cut new sections of pipe insulation for the clones. i moved the clone that is already rooted to the end of the cloner that gets the least bubbles, so the new gals i took can get the more intense mist action.
i took two clones with just one growth tip, and one with two. i'm kinda interested in seeing if i can keep cloning little branches. hell, the most successful ones so far have had 3 and 4 growth tips!
i did have a question, and its more out of laziness than anything else. i was just wondering what an ideal reservoir temp would be for the bubble cloner. i know i could find the answer, but can someone give me a freebie? the other question is regarding thanks in advance.
i will put pics up tonight since i did all the leg-work last night and can just relax and let the timers go.
stay safe

Hey bud, I'm back after crashing my hard drive on my laptop. I "set it down" too hard I guess. If I had to guess res temp I would go 70-75.
My road has been bumpy and my clones are very slow to root. My oldest are like 21 days and some have the white pre-root ball but no actual roots. I'm very disappointed to say the least.
But hey I got one like on week 6 of flower and just threw one mom in there too so she at like week 2. I got like 10 new sprouts, 3 of this last kind and some mystery beans whoopie.
But enough thread jacking for one day, let's see some pics.
tell me some good news golden!
-shake
What the Eff GG? I got a ton of good news for you. What's up headshake? How was your break?
what's good lit up? my break was shorter than expected. so that was nice. yeah, what the eff gg?
-shake
Well, I got a harvest coming up, my clones rooted, all is good here. Oh and the site's back up!!!
ya fellas, where is GG.
I wanna see what's goin on !
alas, the site came back up at a sad time for me. all my ladies have finished at week 7 of flower. i have re-evaluated my StrOG, and am slowly going to be changing my setup. i may go all DWC, but its more likely that i'll just add 2 or 3 2-site DWCs to my current ebb & flow. i dunno, but it'll be mostly DIY. i snapped a few pics after the site went down, but got discouraged when it didn't come back up, so deleted them. i have one final top drying and i'll take a pic around 5pm.
shake - flash drives suck and have corrupted my saved data on the troubleshooting form. perhaps we should begin a new thread taking suggestions...?
so, so glad that the sites back up! i was lurking around icmag, and it just feels too big.
stay safe!

What's up GG? Glad to see you are posting in your thread. I missed ya.
Good to have you back son.
My strog is in full force. My fertilome theory was a success, 12 outta 14 clones rooted in the bubble cloner.
Looking at a harvest of one of my mother in the next week. I'll post pics sometime soon.
sorry to hear that golden. let's do it! i'll be busy for the next couple of days, but after that i can definitely get on it.Quote:

can't wait to see the setup either. i'm gonna be revamping as well.

Hey GoldenGraham!
we want pics! :P
And you should see how my girls have grown!
:D
i as well want pics! but my damn SD card slot on the laptop is being lame and i can't find my USB cable for the camera. grr...
so, anyway. what i've been up to: i am the best friend ever
i have a friend who's been growing since he bought his house 2 years ago. at that time, i knew next to nothing about cultivation of cannabis. i was excited that a friend was growing pot. now, time has passed and i've educated myself, and started a small, personal operation myself. now, i went to celebrate the birthday of my friend's son this past weekend. i thought that since he grew, i'd give him a clone of what i work with. my clones were not ready when i was leaving, so i built him a DWC bucket and gave him my smallest mother plant, after taking 2 clones.
when i got to his place and unpacked his gift, you'd think he'd never seen pot before. then we looked at his current grow cabinet. i'm so happy i was able to educate him a bit on what he was doing wrong. he had 2 - 2' tall plants with only 8 nodes on one and 9 on the other. he was using 2 2' T12 2700k bulbs and 2 halogen bulbs. whoops. something else funny he told me after i explained lighting cycles and flowering: he said his plants took forever to finish budding. it was because when he'd see pistils, he switched it to 24/0 thinking that it would benefit them. another whoops. so we pretty much tore apart his grow, made a bubble cloner and a seperate veg area, cut some clones and began flowering his stretched ladies.
on my end, things are going okay. got one of them opium strain clones rooted and growing. another #6 clone is ready to pop roots and after i cut some more, the #6 mother will go into flowering. i think i might just go buy a new digi cam.
that is awesome gg! it really is. i can't get my friends to show up anywhere on time or go out of their way for me.
good karma my friend.
-shake
well if i was in texas, you'd have at least one mother from me. and i'd make you buy stuff online at the same time as me to save shipping.
that's cool man. good friends are hard to come-by. my brother is even a flake. i apprecieate the thought. and tried to rep you earlier but i got to spread some love around. so instead.....
*passes blunt to goldengrahm*

oh yeah, tell me about this bucket system you speak of.
