this is the only thing i can find on purple diesel
NYC Diesel (Mexican Sativa x Chemo x Afghani x Hawaiian) x Purple Oregon Thai
sweeeeet!!
[QUOTE="SICC";5103085]I've had Purple diesel, And C99, but not recently, so i dont remember too much about the strains, i have tried too many lol[/QUOTE]
yea tell me bout it lol

I just bought a co2 tank, regulator, and an electric solenoid valve. everything is leak free and working properly...take a look at how i have this setup and tell me if i am doing this properly.
I think co2 is heavier than air so i decided to put co2 hoses just above canopy level.... I took and installed a fishtank air manifold- 1 outlet converts to 3. I have three outlets at the same elevation, one at each light.
Here she is 20lb co2 tank.
Left side of grow room, look just under the light...you can see the outlet tube
The middle tube can be seen taped to the wall
You can see the third tube hanging there.
Another shot....
That pretty much sums it up for the grow room. I used a co2 calculator and came up with this...not sure about the best flow meter setting but i started with 10. Room dimensions are 8'x10'x8'
Grow room area: 640 cubic feet
Amount of CO2 required: 0.768 cubic feet
On time: 4.608 minutes
At this flow rate:
If you are using a 20 pound CO2 bottle with a regulator, it will last 17.48 hours.
If you have a CO2 Generator a 5 gallon propane tank will last 54 hours.
When running tank for the on time reqd, i shut off all exhaust and keep room fans running, should i shut these off too? How long should i wait for plants to absorb co2 before turning exhaust back on?

It's better to have the room sealed with no exhaust ......when I run Co2 I just recirculate the air in the room through a carbon filter for odor(i only run co2 in summer)......the lights are aircooled but with air from outside to the outside........... but if you must run it that way I would at least wait for 45-60 minutes before turning the exhaust back on......everything else looks good ..........fans always on so the Co2 doesn't settle since it is heavier than air.....by the way nice bud shot ........looks super frosty

I was going to say the same abou the co2 from what ive been reading on it.Its better to have a sealed room and no exhaust so your plants can absorb it.
Also your buds are mighty fine.Wish i could rep ya again

right on, i am not completely sealed but i do have a tarp that semi-seals the room...there is a 1/2 gap at floor level expanding the length of the tarp. i got all this stuff for about 30 bucks.
Yea i may be losing a little but hey its better than nothin!

Thanks bro! Yea these look the best but i have learned not to judge by trichomb count. After growing 13 strains last round, the ones i thought would be the best weren't and the ones i thought would be the worst were actually the best! Its not how much trichombs but the amount of thc within the trichombs!
Thanks brotha! I am enjoying the organics...the best plants i have ever grown. I have went slightly too much on the nutrients one feed, just a slight leaf curl and tip burn...nothing major. A happy medium in early flower is around 700ppm. How you been doin?
Yea i know, shes got a great sativa smell also! Probably one of the better smelling plants i have.

I am currently running 3- 400w HPS in flower and 1- MH in veg through aggressive veg. I am around the middle of week 5 of switching 12/12.
I am curious as to my gardens potential if I were to install a 1000 watt light as opposed to 400's. I have used 400 watt lights for a few years now, i feel i have upgraded my garden to close to the peak with exception of lighting...for instance, i have purchased co2 supplies including monitor, regulator and solenoid valve. I have my ventilation under control and am able to hold proper humidity and temps and i have gotten in control of feeding (for the most part- first run at organics), i have all necessary feeding supplies and have learned what is needed and how to spend my money wisely when purchasing nutrients.
In a nutshell, if i were to trade in 3 -400 watt lights and upgrade to say 1- 1000 watt and 1 600 watt. Or even 2- 1000 watters. Will I notice much of a difference? Will the increase in power bill pay off in yield?
Take a look at a few shots of the current grow, these plants were intentionally left untrained. I want to see how the each individual strains grow without assistance. The two that are trained (back left and the tree) are bubba kush and deep purple. Deep purple (fed sythetic nutrients) is the tree in hydro and has been obviously trained- you think 1000w above that bitch would help much? Lets just say i can come up with the money for 1000w but am unsure if I should pay that much monthly.
I know topshelf is possible with 400watters, some of my strains are- others aren't. Possibly the added wattage will bring out genetic potential?
Please respond from experience.
