T5 SunSystems 24" 4 bulb on a 20/4 cycle.

Attachment 276050

Had my life partner take this picture. She's amazingly supportive for an asthmatic who can't partake :smokin:

Planning to take June off for growing. Once this crop comes in, the grow set-up will go unused till July 1st. This is so I can make sure I have a freshly cured harvest just in time for my birthday

Edit: Yes, there is a glittery star in my garden. Only because I couldn't find a miniature pink flamingo or miniature lawn gnome.

[WickedJack]

LMAO awesome star..I swear if I find a minature pink flamingo I'll send it your way

Just T5's hey no halide or hps..?I might just go to the shop & pick up a kit they have there 4 24" bulbs with hood & reflectors for $200..Or I could go with the 4' for about $50 more..
Yah Im definatly going to go with CFL's & T5's I cant have any heat then gotta get fans & this & that & blah'n blah maybe if I was doing this to make a profit I'd go all out but hell I just want to make
some oil the stuff Rick Simpson makes for pain to be honest I dont even smoke it..But Ive heard/read so many good things over the years about using it for pain meds I figured why not nothing else Ive tried works..



Peace

$200? LoL! I got mine for $119 plus tax. Shop around for a better price. Oh my gosh, I just remembered I need to go get my Ozone Generator from the front office of my apt complex. Completely done under T5's.

In case you can't see some of my older posts, I actually am crazy. I live in a fairly constant amount of measurable pain. I'm not in it for the money, either. I'll -never- be in it for the money. Not even when I open my own co-op with my caretaker. It's about the medicine, pure and simple.

Me and my caretaker plan to get a self-contained 250w HPS grow light. 400W covers more area than we need. HPS is better for blooming, and MH is better for veg. HPS -is- better than T5, but T5 has worked for our needs so far. I think a HPS is best for autoflowers since there's only a 15-some day veg period. Anyway, try to get something that will penetrate the canopy. The lower buds will be happier for it.

[WickedJack]

Sorry whoops my mistake no its not $200 I was thinkin the HPS & digital ballast she quoted me yesterday..

The 2 foot 4 light hooded T5's are $130 & the 4 footers are $180ish

Yah that sounds better..lol

Apparently the website misquoted itself. I was told it covers a 5,500 square foot section... when the box says 5,500 cubic feet. So I got the super-duper extra good one for 110 plus $60 rush shipping. OZN-1. Amazingly powerful.

I find myself, more and more, sitting in my grow room talking to my plants.

The hardest thing I have to do at this point is wait for the g*****n preflowers to open up. Being my first successful grow [so far], I have no idea how long it takes for preflowers to open up and reveal their goodness, and pack on the resin glands.

My life partner will flat-out murder me if this goes wrong, but I'm going to see how well the ozone generator works against the smell of smoke Who's dead? I'm dead. Damn asthmatics.

Eagerly awaiting the distribution of The Attitude Seed Banks monthly newsletter. Got one letter from them on the first, but it was their promo for the month. I'm going to be in their newsletter this month for getting their logo tattoo'd on my left shoulder to celebrate both 4/20, and me taking an interest in my own wellbeing. This is just one grow out of the countless I plan to do. Never on a scale for sale, but just enough to keep me always floating five feet off the ground. Meds before profit

Good night everyone. Hopefully, by the time I wake up, I'll have a newsletter to read I'm on such good terms with TASB that I emailed them asking if I could buy a box of their lighters and rolling papers to lose at parties, and they just mailed me a box -for free-. I love having stuff to hand out to people, to try and lure them in to growing their own.

Death to Mafia growers!

So some a*****e slipped me a sativa when I said indica. Morning

Sat with my plants for an hour. Noticed amber hairs coming out near the pistils. Very happy to see those. Maturation.

I'm really enjoying your log even though you really are having a rough time of it health-wise. Hopefully the girls will help with that shortly.

You asked about molasses earlier and in my, albeit short, experience its fine to use right through to the end harvest if you wish. Personally I start adding it around week 3 and use it at the dosage of 1 teaspoon per 4 litres (about a gallon). It must be the unsulphured molasses. There's a good sticky here on the forum about molasses if you've not read it before.

Maybe your partner would be interested in baking with a bit of cannabis instead of smoking - if she wants to try it out that is? I don't smoke either but my cookies and cupcakes have given us a few hilarious weekend parties. Its an option anyways. There's a whole recipes section here with all sorts of ideas.

Keep safe

[LuckyThief86]

I am still on my amazing path of "no hospital visits", though it's getting harder. I almost spent last night in a crisis bed at a safe house for the mentally endangered. I went through a quarter ounce in a matter of a few days. I have this sinking feeling that this medicine I'm growing won't last me a month. I'm debating getting another earthbox, though that would increase my workload 100%, it would also increase my medicine output by 100%

Fortunately, I have almost everything I need to do another grow without purchasing any supplies, so my extra money can go back to purchasing more medicine for myself. This pain is constant, and unyielding. I want to harvest, if only because I have no idea if my plants are ready or not. The buds still look like preflowers to me, a mess of pistils and hairs and resin that in no way resembles the clipped plant material I'm used to smoking. If anything, it resembles the Barneys Farm LSD strain I saw in The Attitudes two-page seed ad in July's High Times.

I think if this keeps up, I'm just gonna turn it all in to hash.
