Hey McT - no more than every 3 days. every 2 days if i have upcoming engagements, i have left them for 4 days before ... they were not pleased. survived and healthy, but not happy.

hey icbh707 glad you are back! i will be moving to 1000s (i think) in early september, so basically for the fall / winter. i'd def be interested in hearing about your set up. i would LOVE to have a cooltube and a 400W instead right now, but, since i'm taking down these boxes in 2 months or so, it's not worth it.

hey eviltrees, hope everything is going with your CFL grow! you will get to see how nice they look in a few minutes here ...

i think HPS are the better bulb, but it is definitely less forgiving (heat, light intensity, etc), so it is taking time to dial in. i feel like i have it under control now so that is a good thing. i'll try to stop by your log later on, take care man!

take care everyone and good to hear from all of you!

here are some randoms from early april.

gotta run to the movies for a bit, i'll try posting more when i get back. in fact i've got some nice harvest shots (the 2nd to last shot is GB harvest)

nice.
every 10 days...wow. the work would never end.
ive got blue cheese going now. started under a 400mh and now under a 1000hps. 9 per 1000 in a 4x4 tray with a 70gal res. E&F watering on a timer, you will only have to mix about once a week. remind me when you are ready and i can get you pics and detailed info. best to start with the hot lights when the weather cools down anyway.
outdoor? you live in the country? if not it might be time to change your name...;)
get a big dog.

hey icbh707,

how do you like the 1Ks? i originally thought i would put a 600 above each 3x3 table, but now i am thinking a 1K each ... too much light though? not sure if that is going to be a problem. i think with the air cooled hoods and such, i should be alright temps wise.

i am thinking of doing a 24/0 aeroponics ... i have the plans to build all the 3x3 trays i need, i just have to ask a few more questions about amount of attention and shit (sometimes i have to leave for 1-2 days at a time)

haha yes, outdoors and no, i do not live in the country. consider it urban guerrilla growing. it is completely possible, just an increase chances in loss and exposure. i have to do everything at night, and preferably in the rain / bad weather. pain.in.my.ass. but i love it.

thanks for stoppin by

WOW! now i have thought about doing hempy buckets once instead of soil and this just showed me that it is well worth a try. now on a scale what would you rate the difficulty of this process up untill this point? So i cant wait to see the out put from the HPS :) but my eye is on this and i cant wait to see what your compairsion of end product from your CFLS and your HPS! keep that thumb green :greenthumb:

hey man, sorry its taken so long for me to get back to you ... hopefully i can answer some questions.

i'd say the process is RIDICULOUSLY easy ... that said.

pros:
-for me ... tiny footprint, no huge pots, don't need 3-5 gallon pots.
-just mix and feed the nutes, pretty straight forward, no wondering what they plant may or may not need.
-things move fast so you can read your plants real well and make adj quick

cons:
- must feed at least every 3rd day, pref every other, can be tough with a busy life like mine
- since you have run off at feedings u gotta take everything out so that u dont flood your room (you can set up so u dont have to do that)
- too much bud!! hahaha that's a pro :D

I'll try to throw up some pics of my current stash. It's a pretty sight esp considering its only a 250W.

Thanks for stopping by, take care.
