It does look like some mad scientist lab for sure, I'm just doing an experimental run with the 300w LED since I got it for free and it cost my buddy 1k but he got a 600w one and he loves LED's. I have a 400w HPS and a 400w HD and Digital conversion ballast. Actually I have been thinking of doing soil eventually but I love hydro, so much to play with and it makes me feel like a scientist when i'm not fucking with computers and working at Dell.

beautiful purple, well done! And for those that talked smack about how I trim it is no different than this you can try and dispute it just to do it if you want.fresh trim , round two later

I do the same with hydro. If you do hydro right it's a lot easier and much less fuss and mess to deal with. Thing with hydro is that you either do it mediocrily and keep pace with soil or you dial in your shit 110% and blow your soil brethren out of the water.
A LOT of just general advice on this forum and others regarding hydro. One thing I've learned is that every system will have to be custom dialed in for the best results. Most notably when a different medium is used.
For example, the standard "water once every three hours" doesn't work for both rockwool cubes and hydroton. Two different animals with two totally different approaches.

that started as a dispensary bagseed that i put in a itty bitty pot on the periphery of the light-reach and more or less neglected. grew better yielded more than seeds backed by hype and pampered like the sultan of brunei.

After my beans pop I put them in riot roots and once they break ground I transplant them to net pots with hydroton. I use a recirculating deep water culture set up so it is constantly flowing water from one pot to another with a small but powerful pump. When the plants roots suck up enough water I just turn the pump on in the res and let it flow into the control pot until it is full enough. i also use h2o2 to keep it clean and hygrozyme for healthy roots. I pretty much got my skills down with this set up its not hard for me it was the first run that I got a little overwhelmed but I got the hang of it quick.
here is a good example of my RDWC set up: the white bucket on the left is a two gallon res (the cab holds 8 pots but im doing an experimental LED run with 1 pot) with an orange tube going from the white rez to the control pot which has the pump for circulation and the yellow tube at the top of the pot is an oxygen feeder, I have two air pumps for it. i also have two built in computer looking fans, a white fan on the left and a black fan on the right so I have a 360 degree air flow plus my porty A/C is blowing directly into the cab, I leave the doors open most of the day. the LED puts off no heat which is good due to these summer heats (damn climate change). I run lights in the day cause Im paranoid about light leaks even though I have it all sealed up and have a green light for my room. anyway that was long and here is the pic, finally:

i have about 27 gallons of rockwool crutons... the one advantage is they go longer between waterings. a feature like that is a nice cushion if you aint around & shit breaks. another thing i like about rockwool is it give more grow (root) power over hydroton.
i consistently get bigger plants w/ the same rooting time given to clones & same size container with 90% crutons & 10% sure to grow hail.
its not much more "grow power" ... but every 3, 5, 8g more over all those cuts adds up !
hydroton = i love it , its my fav , & i'll take some less grams for less headache
my total feed time per 12 hour lights on is 5x @ 5 minutes each time.
shit would killa kill some rockwool fast.
what's yours? how high do you flood?
im a low flood guy.... make those roots work for their slut water love.

yes.
its killing fields.
leafy bitch aint it?
but she was a mom , subject to that nasty heat wave in my lab , & more.
im soooooooooooo happy to be back harvesting again.
*
ah. no jenks. trying to stay consistent & not be lazy, she gets 100% trimmed again.
2x total. rough trim like you see. hits the screen for a few days.
then, after it gets crispy, i go back in for a surgical strike.

Gud ur flipping me off cause I get along with MrC and u dnt? I'm not even a part of cannetics. And when I asked him about it I was told no. Did it bother me at first yes. But then I found out what it was all about and now I dnt care.
And the truth is I havnt posted pics because of security I dnt trust any of those browsers nore will I ever. I use an IPhone under a fake name and I dnt even personaly Pay the bill. So untill I can figure out a way to post my work ffrom this phone without a trail I won't. On cannazon I can. So call me a fag or dnt even acknowledge this post whatever. But if all I had going on is a little cab I wouldnt even worry. But those who know me I got ALLOT more going on then that. And I'm not is a good place and I have a Fam. So I got allot more to worry about then anyone's approvals.
So respect that or don't. But I have earned my keep around here and fuckin Jenks has to do the same. At least I didn't start off with all that drama he did. Just for the record the only thing I ever said was his continuous post of videos. Yes u cant post some vidoes cool. But not 10 in a row you even said soemthing about his Poor taste. And the other thing I said was WTF about how he went out of his way to trash talk everyone in here when he was clearly deceitful.
And the shit with hippy was civil just like this post I dnt hate never have never will. Wish I could say the same for some of you.
Gud ur just as guilty at ignoring people and calling people out in here. So dnt beat around the bush u got something to say to me say it. Dnt give me rep. Behind closed doors then ignor me in public. Thought u to be a cool Kat.
Cause I for one dnt hide shit from the Internet spot light.
U asin fuckin cola slighin kick ass MTF....

If the buds are really airy like that big one next to to the diet dew then I do a loose cut but if they are tight buds i do a surgical as you would say tight cut. Thats why the pic of the top of the jar are a bit leafy because they were some airy loose ass big buds!
Oh by the way do you use trimming scissors, plain scissors, or an electric trimmer? I use professional grade hand trimmers, after a while you get that thumb cramp but I am leary of electric ones so I was just wanting some advice and or opinions about them.

I've always wanted to see all of these trimmers in action. I don't mind dropping the coin. But I hate buying shit that doesn't work. I was talking to a friend from Cali a few months ago. The amount of loot he spent on trimmers last year was insane. He does his thing outdoor.

I'm trying really hard to earn my way here and I know I was a complete and utter ass in the beginning but I was in a bad place in my life physically and mentally and like i said thats not an excuse to treat people that way. for now on I'm going to be positive and take criticism in a positive light and use as much advice as i can get from you more experienced growers. Never again will I be that way I don't even like to think about it because I can't believe i acted like that I am to old and mature to be doing shit like that.

Bro it's bad ass. Now dnt get me wrong if u want to take a bud shot nothing beats by hand. But as far as getting the job done it does hands down. Like I said you take off the fans and then roll it around and it gets the rest. Never have ever had a complaint. SSome people are like doesn't it ruin the resin glands but the truth is if your shit sucks it ain't the trimmers fault. And te bag just catches the little resin coated leaves and it's perfect. And also they dry right in the bag perfectly.
