I just killed a lady bug larva by accident. They look a lot like black caterpillars with a orange stripe on each side. But I guess this means my spider mites are back even though I cant find them on my plants.

Temps 80°
PPM 500 PH 5.8

The girls got a new res today, Starting them at 760ppm PH 6.0
They stretched a couple inches in the last day or so. Keeping them away from the light.

I cut out more of that lower shelf in the floro cab so I got room for my blueberry mum.
Now I got a sunblaze there too so mums and the new clones will have 5000 lumens for vegging.

Oh they help man, but they gotta be close.
I grew that trainwreck under HPS, CMH and T5 (sunblaze) and the T5 was the best smoke I have ever grown.

Girls are going through about 1.5 gallons a day now. They picked up about 6 inches so far in stretch. Lookin real healthy. I have used calmag with last two res changes. That and switching over to FF really made a big difference.














Quick shot of the floro cab,





Here are the cabs side by side.




They are large enough now I dont need to add any more humidity.


Aqua Euro is sending me a ups shipping label so I can return the chiller. They will test it and replace it if defective. This is the manufacture who is helping me with this. reefplayground was absolutely no help at all. didnt even answer email's. I left negative feedback on ebay.​

big defferents dude . im telling ya put so autos in their. 4 me! and im waiting
In time bro, I got these to finish these then I want to do a vertical grow with Blueberry. After that I will set up with all floros and LEDS probably 2 racks per cab and run some autos.

Everything's looking good in there cruz, can't wait to see buds in there again!
Me either, I figure one more week then they start poppin.
In a couple days (after the majority of the stretching is done) I will clean up under the screen. take that and do a test run with the daisy cloner.

Shit!

When I got home from getting the new clones I kneeled down to put them in the cab and my knees were wet. not good. I had my first leak. A good one too, about 4 gallons made it to the carpet.

After taking the res out and sopping up the inside of the small cab I noticed the drain was fucked up. I must have bumped it and I didnt glue the pvc there, it has a collar.

So its been shop vac, towels and fans all fucking day.​

and this is how we learn-
i like your shit-
great minds think alike?

if you don't mind me asking exactly what do you sell-
looks like you do pretty well with it-
anyway been around construction and fab 30 years and you do pretty good for a desk type
 
Well make sure you lift the carpet and put an air mover under it. I do mold remediation for a living and the EPA says you should toss a carpet if it is wet for more than 24-36hrs due to mold growth...sucks you had to deal with that. I am looking into hydro, I have a small setup but haven't set it up yet cuz I plan on moving withing the next 30 days....this was a great thread...

Thanks, Yea I sell just about everything.
Started selling in the late 70"s Car stereo. Then went into Audio and video. When I saw the profit in speakers I went into furniture. Did that for quite a while. Sales/management. I have a real Estate licence for a couple years but havent got into the busuness yet. My last couple gigs were selling home improvements. Kitchen and bath remodels. Thats where I learned how to shetch out projects. I have sold cars in the past but dont like the hours.

Well, I figure this was wet for about 8 hours, The area is about 2 ft by 6 ft. that got wet. After using a shop vac I borrowed a huge fan, covered it with a blanket so the air was forced down and ran that for 24 hours, moving it forward a couple feet after it was dry to the touch. I got all I could get and it feels dry now. That would really suck if I got mold down there.

Thanks for the complement, If you have any questions about hydro feel free to ask.

I feel like such a noob.

I put my new clones in the cab and set the big fan in front of the cabs to dry the carpet.
Being in front I didnt check on the clones untill this morning. They dried out. All but the blue dream were wilted where they folded over.





I moved them to a small tub and got r/o water on them about an hour ago, The afghan widow has come back but I am still waiting on the rest. What ever doesnt make it I will replace but dam, I havent done this in quite a while.
