My pump is a 400 gal/hour model. Cost $25. Heath used a 600 gal/hour if I remember correctly, and that was for all the tubes he had. At my hydro store a 600 g/h cost $45. I'm a cheap ass trying to save $20, lol.

Glad you like it west.

Oh... and about moving the plants stuff I heard. That was all from vert growers, like Dez mentioned the lean is more extreme in a vert grow... so that could be why they talk about it so much. Sorry for forgetting to include that tidbit of info to my useless babbling.

Haha... just noticed the word 'air' in front of pump dez. THe airpump is 38 L/min... does a great job. I used it for all my grows. From 28 gals of rez, down to the 3 gals it's pumping air into now. It's going into the little DWC, not the main tube rez. The tubes pretty much oxgenate their own rez from the waterfall effect.

Mine's the 18 w version.

I mark the side of the pot that's directly facing the cooltubes in the vert grow so that if I have to move them for some reason or pull them out, I can put them back in as close to the exact same position as I can. Things are a little different in a vert room though as compared to having your light hanging above the plants. The lean towards the light is much more extreme so I think turning them would have a negative effect.
That is what I experienced. Here is an above view of a plant in my setup. Can you guess, which side of the picture the light would be on?

Well thanks for the replies peeps, the peanut gallery has spoken. I can see what you mean regarding the sun and the points do seem to have some weight to them. How is this going to work then if you have multiple light sources, or your light source is vertical? Should we all really be looking at one light source per plant? I know mine receive a couple at least....
ah well, too much thinking along these lines is hurtin ma heid, lol. Please keep rolling with it if you want so say owt......

Thanks. I was looking at a 40LPM and a 45LPM and was trying to decide between the two. I may do an all DWC grow in the future so I wanted to get one big enough for that just in case. I read that 1BMM is using two of the 40LPM ones for 15 buckets so I figured one would probably be enough for 6-8 buckets if I go that route. I'll use it to oxygenate my res for now for the E&F and for the two buckets I've got going. I figured I wouldn't need it for a flooded tube like yours due to the waterfall effect, like you said.

Hmm, I dont have that much space in between my plants, my room is so full...just like last time, but its less plants. I tried to have some room, but they just got big on me. I remember when I first came into club600 and I told you guys about growing 12 plants in a 4x4 and vegging them for 6 weeks. You guys told me it would be crowded. You were right, so I took your advise this time and did 9 or less plants, I have 7 regular plants, and I dont have any fn, room. Once the bucket my autos are sitting on comes out I guess I will. I need some small fans I can clip on the corners of my tent instead of having the bigger oscillating fan in there. That would give me more room as well. Then my lower stuff can get good light as well. Need a new reflectore also, so much work...Outdoors, if you never did it, is so much easier than indoors. There isn't all of these issue to deal with, ph your water, don't let your plant get eaten or dry out, and you will have decent bud. Feed it properly and you will have killer buds, minimal of 8 hours sunlight, you will have huge killer buds. Of course the more the better. Its really that easy. Hope for good weather too, forgot about that. Thats my outdoor grow guide. It has served me well for a long time.

If your going to use chicken wire to protect your plants, paint it brown, makes it almost impossible to see in the weeds, at least from a distance. Water ALOT in the summer time, unless you get alot of rain. Sativas are a no no in the North East, out west, take your pick, and umm, don't show anyone where they are, they will be gone come close to harvest time. Pickers wont be as patient as you. Prepare the soil, a lot of areas have good topsoil, but once you go down 6-10 inches then you start hitting clay, sand and crap like that, so did out a huge hole, 5 gallons or more and fill it with your favorite mix of soil. I couldn't tell anyone how to do any more than that. The sun does all the work for you, that is unless your going to top, lst or scrog. In that case its the same as indoors, just on a larger scale.

I picked my brain for you, anyone who tells you its more complicated than that, is only making it hard on themselves. If you know what to put in your soil mix, and what to feed the plants, mother nature keeps the environment survivable for a cannabis plant in the spring and summer time, more often than not, she makes it ideal. Ideal is of course strain dependent and its up to you to find what will do the best in your area of the wilderness. I never did grow in a back yard, that sounds so nice. It was always an adventure to get to my big girls. The autos I did I kept close, but hell they were like 3 feet including the potters, which I dont suggest growing in potters unless you protect it with fencing, I had a bad experience with mine getting dug out and dumped over by pests.

You lay it down very nicely Outs. I was going to try vegging indoors and flowering outside. I read a post about someone doing this. He used I think 60 clones with very little veg time, and got 60oz-/+ I was thinking 4 week veg indoors and flower outdoors for a couple big plants. How big do indicas generally get outdoors? Do the autoflowering plants get bigger outdoors than indoors? Would those be less noticeable?

Did you ever have one of those days with mixed results? Truck radiator cracked and there is not one available within 200 miles so I'm stranded until tomorrow. Well good, there are three ladies that need to be harvested now that I have the time. Finished that and checked my rollitup and went to the bathroom where I was promptly interrupted by a knock on the door and it seems the irs want to have a conversation about some back taxes...if I had any money there wouldn't be back taxes.
now to the good stuff...
shackzilla day 64 harvest




she was the pick of the litter...I'll do a smoke report later

Never grew a full indica but an indica dominant strain outdoors will grow somewhere in the range of 6 to 8 feet in my area, with some preveg time, 8 to who knows what. I thin most people who preveg also do a good bit of topping or LST to their plants, most dont let them grow straight up. But I usually do. I start from seed, april or may. Depending on the strain, usually average 7-14 feet. 14 feet being sativas, but I dont like to fuck with them, they dont finish here.

So if im looking for a 6 foot plant at most, would topping for 4 main colas be a good idea, or would the LST be better. Im doing my first LST now, but I have done plenty of topping. I notice indoors, even topped some plants will still grow almost as tall as the un-topped plant of the same variety. I only have a week of experience with LST.
