chron! what's the word homie? what you got going off right now?? How long till harvest?? I am dislocated from my culture and desperately need updates on the green revolution. most importantly, did the ISS taste as good as she looked?

She tastes great. She just doesn't have that diesel I live for. I must get back on the diesel train.

Just harvested my shaman x gods gift, some nice big stinky colas, they're lookin great

Currently, I have very little to say positively about this warehouse grow, the people growing before me in here just
Threw up some thousand watts, and put plants under them and called it a grow room. It's pretty pathetic, especially for
My meticulous standards. Here are the pics

Currently, there are 24 thousand watts, with ONE plant under each light.

I will be using 4x8 trays raised up about 17 inches of the ground, with 2 thousand watts
Per 4x8 tray, and 8 plants per tray, that's 4 plants per thowy watt. Il be lookin to harvest
6-8 ounces per plant

IMO all this space is being just wasted, I can't wait to tear this place apart.

And the unorganized wiry fire hazard which is above our heads.

Open for suggestions, but I pretty much have it planned out, this until wenput 18 more thousand watts
In there. I'm not really lookin forward to that...

This is some blabbering from the brochure, but I haven't used an ac this bad ass before, so
Just lettin peeps get this info. GRÜNAIRE!

The Grunaire HX Series inverter technology systems let you reach the desired temperature FASTER, maintain it more accurately, and reduce energy costs. It eliminates the constant compressor start-ups/ shut downs required to maintain the set temperature with traditional technology. It controls compressor rotation speed precisely and adjusts capacity to meet demand, which in turn reduces energy consumption.

Inverter technology allows each system to adjust capacity and cooling output to provide only the required cooling or heating needed at a given time. For example, a 12,000 BTU/h systems will operate more efficiently as a 9,500 if that is all that is required

SEER ratings up to 20.0

All out models exceed the new 13 SEER requirements. And more that a one-third of our HX-Series models qualify to the 2009 energy tax credit.

Check out these Grunaire MiniSplit systems, I'm in love.

Im sure you have your thoughts and plans all detailed out, but if I was going all out in a warehouse grow, Id splurge and get the UnderCurrent system that JackMayOffer runs-- http://www.thcfarmer.com/forums/f158/60-x-1000-watts-under-current-hydro-20-tons-ac-some-co2-19366/

I think just about everyone would agree 1.5-2 lb's per plant is straight insane

 

[Shrubs First]

Ive seen it, under currents are dope. My Homie is gonna try it out, and i might set up a smaller setup
Usin 2 of my thousands, but idk if I wanna commit to the whole warehouse, I'm pretty sure I can hit the 1.5 - 2 lbs
Mark using coco D/W

 

[notoriousb]

I have no doubt that you could hit that mark, but veg time is the real kicker. he only vegg'd 2 weeks with the UC system and still ended up with 2 pounders. still having a hard time wrapping my head around that

Wow, hah. What a huuuuuuge waste of lights they had going. Shit, I'd only put one 1k watt per 4x8 try, just right smack in the middle. So many people use way too many lights for their space. It really is crazy sometimes to look at. You should definitely invest in a cheap light meter and test the light at the outskirts of your area. Then compare it to outside to see what you're fuckin with.

 

[Shrubs First]

2 thousands per 4x8 is pretty standard in the us horticultural grow, I've seen cisco warehouses
Setup very similar to what I'm lookin to do, thousand per 4x4 area, not 4x8. I can have my hoods spaced a good 5-6 feet away and be getting the overlap of lights which I'm tryin to get. That way your not losing much light due to inverse square.

Just finished potting 12 of RezDogs 4SD's (ChemDog#4 x Sour Diesel)

They're lookin healthy and ready to take off

Fertilizer consisted of
1.5 Gallons RO/DI water tested 1ppm
11 mL Coco A
11 mL Coco B
24 mL Rhizotonic
3 mL Mayan Microzyme
1 Scoop Great White Premium Mycorrhizae

EC 1.0, pH 5.9, Temp 66F

Some more updates

Just installed a CO2 sensor in the room

Very basic, Hydro Innovations Monitor, turns on at 1300ppm turns off at 1500.
Got it for 300 after taxes at my local hydro store, and they do CO2 refills for 9.99 now.

Temp, humidity, and CO2 all controlled by these two little guys.

They were 13-14 inches when I flowered them on the first. Now they're 20-21

I just love seeing the 3 HIDS all in a row like this.

A little PK deficiency, I switched to cannazyme instead of Hygrozyme because it's a 0-2-1 and should add that little extra.

8 lovely ladies

Feeding was as follows
16 gallons water
150 mL coco A
150 mL coco B
150 mL cannazyme
60 mL Rhizotonic
30 mL humboldt honey hydro carbs

pH 5.9 EC 1.4 temp 67F

Questions?

 

[Shrubs First]

Anyone else enjoy sitting in their room just reading and admiring?
