If you get a proper light leak (i.e you lights are coming on for an hour or so during the dark period) this will switch the plants back into a veg mode and make the flowers stretch. This has happened to me twice over the last several years due to timers and it can actually make for pretty massive buds if you continue - allbeit with a slightly less dense structure. I guess it depends on the strain as to how they react.

Whodat, can I ask how much you paid for your chiller please?

They are a pain to program, and sometimes they too go fukin wacky and screw things up... This one has be alright for me though~




Its perfect for my alternating cabs, it switches from the yellow to the blue (day night) outlets seamlessly. So on the blue side I have one light and one intake fan, same thing for the yellow side. Then the whites are on constantly, that would be for the big outake fan and light mover.
If the power ever goes out it has a battery and keeps they cycle on point for when the power comes back on.
I've got the same one who lol. The battery back up is really nice.

It's all digi in flower, veg still has manual timer as well.

Oh and that's some sexy chiller pr0n

The battery backup is golden.

That is the one advantage of the physical type of times otherwise,
that they do not need power to hold settings....but they will still usually
restart their own "clock" when the power comes back on.

I am appreciating your sharing the process Who. I have been interested
in RDWC as a next step in the future.

The hard part for me is parts. lol, seriously it is all about the lines and
connectors. I would need to control costs to the degree possible, but would
need very reliable materials.

$270, free shipping and a 5% coupon. I have made DIY chillers in the past that worked really well, but this is much cleaner and accurately controllable. Recommended for 13-40gal / 50-150L, I would say thats accurate for a grow room with ambient temp of 80, my system holds 30gal and it got the water to 60f before I ended the "test".
Cold water is a must in dwc.
Edit: ah but I bet you want it for water cooling your lights eh, I have not looked into that really.

That's what I like about my tubes... little chances for error or leaks.

Jig is right, JD, the tubes are very simple. Only reason Im not going the tube rout is because I want to grow some giant plants,,, and giant plants need giant root structures!
No leaks in this system :-) just gotta do it right.

JD, one thing I really like about growing is designing/drawing up grow rooms and systems, if you want I'll help you figure out a system for you.

an extrema clone from the tray. this growth occured in 2 weeks, which with extrema is a short time...usually it's 3 weeks, if it happens.



I'd take up whodat on his offer. It seems the Cajuns have some mad creative and building skills.


:peace:

Jig that is badass lol. How did I not know this was going!? Will be over promptly!

I was just thinking about doing this the other day after being enthralled with the concepts of the Volksgarden and Roto-Grow.

Great setup and awesome buds man! Good to see some LEDS churning them out.

There are several phenos in the goji. Mostly berry smelling during flower, mine dried to a buttery berry smell.

Mine had dense flowers with a long main cola and several dense golf balls further down. High was head mostly with a sensual body effect. Made every touch count.

Frosty all the way to stems and small fans. LOTS of hash.

She stays squat during veg and stretches 2-3 times in flower. Top for 4 or mainline. Breeder suggests lots of room for roots.

Was ready for chop at 9 weeks.

Thanks for that info man! I read the same thing about the pheno. Checked out some flower pics and they look dank! Good luck with this round bro.

Pic of revegged Goji. When I uppot tomorrow I will clear out the remaining flowers and dead leaves.

Question, are these buds smokeable (personal) ? Or should I just toss em?

I don't need to smoke em... But I feel bad tossing em if they are still good. I will have to check the trichs tomorrow and see what's going on with em.
