so what kinda flower setup you looking at, man?
.
Haven't quite gotten all the details down on how the flowering set up will be so far. I still need to increase the veg area, which will probably mean doing a completely new setup in a larger more convenient area. Im still moving so everythings going on a slightly slower pace than I normally would. The good news is the next veg setup will be more permanent, larger, and more practical. As it is I the veg area gets a little too hot and dry. Almost a month veg for the clones Im going to take today and over the next week of both Purple Kush and Sensi Star (so flowering won't start till mid september). The seeds I just planted won't have clones come off of them until October. and those clones will go in as an add on to the already flowering PK and SS, meaning I am going to get another HPS to add on, as Im already going to be using the Hortilux 1000W Super HPS (100,000-118,00 Lumens constant :) ) that I have. I will probably be adding more 1000W HPS. Im going to stick with soil, and will have more than plenty of space to mess around until Im happy. Might plug 5 gallon pots into 15 gal buckets and run a DWC (as I just found some brand new 200 gph water pumps) .... dunno will have to wait and see. Thanks for your interest..... feel free to interject any comments any time..... and :weed:

Edit: I will have enough space to run 10-12 1000W HPS on a rotating harvest schedule. As it is, a lot of electrical work needs to be done first etc. etc. Thats why its a perpetually growing perpetual grow ;)

I push about 15-17 amps. Roughly every amp is 100 watts. makes my bill go up between 70-80$.
That is at 120V I run 240V for my lights and they pull half the amperage only about 4 amps per 1000 watts.

My bill is no less than if I ran 120V . . . .

My bill is about $100 a month and I pull 2700 watts plus A/C, pumps, ect.

no problem..... I actually haven't checked to see if any of those seeds sprouted..... I expected some to germ by now, and for them to start to sprout tomorrow or the next day..... I will go check later..... haven't really done anything for the cuttings either, its dry in there and there is lots of air movement and I haven't misted the cuttings at all not even when i took them...... way too much going on.... I gotta take a smoke break....... after I take a shower...... and I can focus on growing a little bit after that.... oh and I have to go water all the outdoor....... sometime or not......

I pay $199 per month almost to the penny to run my 13k BTU a/c, my 1k watt flower room ballast, my 400 watt veg ballast, and all the power for tv's, the stove, washer and dryer, computers, dishwasher, hot water heater, etc etc.

Im not happy about the seeds I planted....

Not the seeds, but the set up and lack of attention.

I haven't watered and I know the layer they are in got completely dry.

I might have to pull them out and germ them :(....... that would really suck......

I might just switch a couple things around and givem some water......

Not sure yet.

Won't know till I get there in a few hours..... sighs, shrugs, sad, gotta tend the OD

why should I?


When I went back to look and maybe mess with things........ had two sprouts of everything but Twilight, no twilight yet..... though I expected the Twilight to sprout last....... all cuttings are still alive, still haven't given them any real attention...... see how it all turns out by this Friday ;)

How are the seeds m8 ?
Funny you should ask. here they are ;).

there are four rows of five 1 gal. pots labelled by strain as A-E

Rows are from Left to Right- Twilight, Mauii Skunk, Widow Cindy, Chemo Cindy

the seeds that poppered are as follows:

Twilight- 0
Mauii Skunk- A,B,C,E
Widow Cindy- A,D
Chemo Cindy- A,C,D,E

so 10 sprouts of 20 seeds in 48hr. 5 that didn't sprout are Twilight. They should come up by the 96 hr mark. The other 5 should sprout in the next 24 hrs.

I remoisened the top soil with a spray bottle :).

The rockwhool cubes for the cuttings that I took were dryish :o(because of dry airflow/lack of humidity) so I poured one cup of water in the tray :). Not really focussing too much on them at all.... just lettin them do whatever.... next couple batches of clones I will be a bit more involved with ;).

I will get the larger veg area set up right after Sept 1st. (perfect timing ;) ). Start getting the first flower set up going then too :). Some pics for yah, :) :weed:
