I definitely think it's another Blue as we have only released the Deep Blue recently and there have been a quite a few test grows and all have been regular. No one has reported anything back to us. There are so many names these days it's hard to tell lol.

A friend told me about a pack he got from SoS and they really have quite a cool thing going (not to be mentioned on line of course;) wink wink, nudge nudge, say no more!)

Take it easy Fuzznutz, off to make a jegoint.

Hi Everyone, I hope your having a really fun Friday. Im enjoying the day by relaxing a bit drawing and fuckin off in my garage stoned listening to Quadriphenia, The Who..
can you see the real me? lol:joint::peace:CAN YOU?hahah

:peace:My deep blue seed is germinating, the tap root is just bearly making "its" way out.

:joint:Has anyone ever grown plants and after sexing them transplanted them to the waterfarm unit?
I am looking for an inexpensive clever way to do this. Im sure one of you brilliant growers out there can help me out with this one! Thanks

Take Care
Happy Gardening and Medicatiingbongsmilie

Transplanted from which medium and what size are the plants and their root masses?
HI TTT, i think i just figured out a way.. i want to grow them up in hydroton until i can sex them then transfer to my waterfarm bucket..
im thinking if i do this like wiimbly did somehow in my phototron, it might work.. or i might just have to make a set up like wiimb has..
I need to keep the plant size down...if i want to get at least 3 unknown sexed girls in there....so short and stocky like my 12/12 from seed girls right now.. i have just been able to sex them out and it was at 26 days and they were still pretty small.. what do you think?

I'm in the middle of a joint so hang tight, what comes next could be totally whack :p

From my experience, it really depends how long you need to veg for which would determine the manner in which you were going ot do it if transplanting to a waterfarm was the aim. I've found with DWC buckets that the roots will grow through the netpot fairly rapidly, they're in search of that reservoir. If you are able to transplant at this point, that's great, but if you need to let them go further it oculd potentially prove problematic.

Personally, i would stay clear of DWC for veg, and rather build a small ebb and flow table. The idea would be to add an extra bucket to it though. So instead of having your bucket and your reservoir and the gubbins, you add a second bucket into the first one, but one that is HEAVILY holey for all the roots to grow out of, like in the waterfarm bucket, and then you can veg for as long as you like and roots will stay in the bucket, then come transplant, you lift the holey bucket up, plant, and just plop that into the waterfarm. All roots will have grow inside this bucket but once out of the constricting outer bucket can now grow out the holes

I guess that's more one of those long term options. Look at me and my creativity go, zooom. I think my mind went so fast i jsut started waffling about somehting not really what you were after haha :D When you have a good idea, take a step back and make it that little bit gooderer.

hi amber , iv also been thinking about this for when i transfer to the water farm , my idea im going to do is a mini style hempy bucket , a yogart pot or party cup filled with perlite or small clay pebbles , make a small hole in the pot/cup and grow it mini hempy style then im hoping i can easily eithor remove the plant and roots from the pot/cup and transplant or make loads of holes in the cup/pot and use it as a makeshift net pot kinda idea ....

well thats my idea anyhow lmao

hmmmm, thank you for all your creative solutions and thoughts on this transplant matter..... i will not be taking any of these ideas into concideration..
haha.. only joking.. I think they are all really great ideas! but it is really hysterical that all of you were completely stoned outta your minds when coming up with these ideas!!
getting high stimulates creativity..if you have any more suggestions please let me know!

Hello Robert! I will try my best to help you on your way as well. Let me know if you have any questions i will gladly try to help. Here is a very important manual that you should download and read over. SCOTTYBALLS is looked up to by so many for his waterfarming skills. I will be following this manual myself.
Hahah, The DOG kush..you say..I was going to do that with this waterfarm but thought better after DST told me about how i wuld have to pick off its balls..lol.I have a DOG seed burning in my wallet but need to read up on how to grow her a little more. I would love to see you grow the DOG WAterfarm style! :lol::lol:


So here is an image of the SCOTTYBALLS waterfarm manual. Let me know if you have any probs finding it online and I can find you the link. He does also have a journal floating around on RIU.
Im glad to have you here Robbie and i hope i dont dissapoint.;-)

YOU GUYS ARE BLOWING MY MIND UP!!!!!WOW WOW WOW
what creative ideas!
Robbie i am soooo excited for you growing the legendary las fingerez SLH in a waterfarm...the clone will NOT die! lol.. and your all set up and running the waterfarn already...you move fast boy..damn. and you have your scrog screen made already too! im super impressed with your initiative, motivation and focus.. wow Robbie .. thats very cool...
I was just working on my scrog screen. I have it painted in some funky colors and im adding some cool shiney stickers .. one step at a time. ......

Mr. Burr, Hello, welcome to my waterfarm journal..Your picture is really fascinating to me. What in the world is going on there? I am not at all familiar with that kind of set up .. rock wool for vegging? Did you build that yurself..?? wuld you be so kind as to foward your design manual to me ? it looks like a winner..really sweet, thanks for sharing.

quick question for you waterfarmers out there....I have an eight bucket recirculating system and was wondering how far up the water level goes. I may need to replace something because the water is filling up past where the top bucket drops in. So if I put bucket in too quickly it pushed water up and out of the lower buckets.

Most water farmers shoot for a 1" gap between water and top basket. It's been working well for me.

Don't have any diagrams, so let me explain. I have my buckets hooked up to a remote res, the level of the water stays about an inch below the basket. I add bubblers to each bucket. 3 times per day I pump fresh cool nutes through the buckets, raising the water level in each bucket almost to the top while pumping. My roots live in the 6" rockwool block and hydroton, and when they out grow that they have a DWC bucket to expand into.

THE SEED HAS BEEN PLACED!
and in a very precarious place. i aint going to stress about this grow BUT i hope that we dont have an earthquake here in PNW in the next couple days or so .. cuz if we do i can kiss this seed goodbye..lmao.. its situated between the pebbles pretty deep if one of the side wall pebbles falls on it , im fucked. fingers crossed. I will be spraying this baby down (exuse me while i do bong hit of lemon skunk bongsmilie)
quite often to keep her alive.
I am cranking my dehumidifer, lights are scheduled to go on at HIGH noon to 6 am for 18/6 with my MH bulb on 360 watts..

I love this song by MONSTER MAGNEt.. i can relate to the lyrics.. talkin about mescaline and the swamps of New Jersey...lol;-)
