HYDROPONICS OUTDOORS

[hydrocannabis]

Weezard that is the coolest looking thing I have ever seen.

I am right now planing to do a hydroponic next spring/summer.

Don't get out much, do ya, H. C.?
But thanks.

I've always felt that anything worth doing well,
is too damn hard.

Jets clog, water pumps fail, timers screw up.
Dirt is heavy and, well, dirty.
Most schemes require constant attention and effort.

Not into effort.
And constant attention IS effort.

Any grow that depends on me being dependable is doomed
So, I'm trying to simplify and automate at the same time.
I call it Bubba-ponics.
Lazy man's gardening on the cheap.
Air pump is the only moving part.
Got that on a UPS in case of power failure
Anything I can come up with that takes my "black thumb" out of the mix is a plus.
This way, I can fully enjoy my last harvest without hosing up the next one.

If you ever see me overworking, you can safely assume that you are hallucinating.:jointsmile:

Looking forward to your project.

great idea D and nice non-work there weez:thumbsup:

I know the guys at greenhouse claim the Church to be very mold resistant and its a big bushy plant that would do well outside. I think it was xcrispi who got 16 ozers off one inside (ill have to check that).

good luck,

We got something like 7 oz off our church and she was another like Curly that looked really crappy in veg.....then exploded in flower.

I've never seen such odd looking cannabis plants there Weezard. What strain do they call that? Those ARE the most beautiful hydro roots I have ever seen.....even for such a strange strain of ganja.

You going to gotry this D4?

WH that strain Weezard gots there is the KILLA ISLAND MAYTER ...lol....

Yeah I'm gonna try this next year...but Mine will be a little less Bubba than Weezards and more ponics...I'm gonna go either recirc dwc or a huge ebb n flow/DWC hybrid that's been running thru my head for some time...probably gonna be a 30 -50 gallon grow cell...

And you are going to remove and bring 30-50 gallons of hydro solution with your garden hose? That and pumps I suppose.

One really nice thing about hydro outdoors is if there is some sort leak or spill you'd most likely be a LOT better off outside.

Too bad 'bout dem big nanners though.

Aloha Weedy.
Howzit?

Dat's my "ainokea" 'speriment.
Always try to test my brainsqualls, (too dumb for storms), on sumthin' expendable.
She was a scraggly, $2, home depot, n'orphan.
Just looked so sad all by her lonesome there.

Got 4 dozen 'maters on 'er now.
Looks like every flower is setting fruit. Yay!

I'm thinkin this is perfect for a Church.
Alas, ainogotta Church.

Got another bucket indoors under LEDs with a W.W. clone.
Took dozens of clones from her but she was still getting too big for my space.
Put her in 12/12 yesterday.
She's twice the size of anything I've ever grown in dirt after only 4 week in veg.
I think we might be on to something here.
Starting some sweet peppers in a garbage can , outdoors, today.
I'll keep you posted, D4.

Thanks for the chuckle, Weedy.

I'm off to be the Lizard.

Wee.

Mrs. Hound - Yes I'll use pumps and hoses/tubing to move the water/nutrient solution where I need it, I started doing it indoors too on my last grow, so much easier than carrying buckets...I use tap water & keep a large garbage can just for the purpose of having nonchlorinated water readily accessable for the next res dump and top offs...

Weezard - you can post your outdoor hydro updates w/ the peppers here too, if you wanna...How big of a garbage can r u gonna go for them peppers...

Plain old 55g., black plastic, square-ish with wheels, D.

But it looks like I'm gonna need to buy another seedling.
My pepper popped flower buds yesterday.
I was planning on taking clones and putting one in DWC alone, one with DWC and drip, and one in dirt.
Dunno if the clones will take once they start blooming and it's getting late in the season for natural light.
Come December the days start getting longer again.
Drat
Might have to go with Yellow tomatoes instead.
Got some organic seed for large yellow and large Tigerellas.
The Centennial now has over 50 fruits.
Looks like I'll be doing some canning this winter.

Advice is solicited and appreciated.

Thanks,
Weeze

Advice about what? Types of tomatos? I don't have a single clue what to tell you about growing tomatos.
