    SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

    In mine if I leave the top uncovered it dries out, when I cover it, the soil stays slightly moist. I used to leave them uncovered but have found it raised my rh quite a bit, so covering them helps with the evaporation and keeps the soil a bit moister on top.

    I don’t have a hard formula. For 5 gallon and under a lot of people use something like this https://amzn.to/3ZRzNJD wicking rope. For my 17 gallon sips I have 2 4” net pots as wicks.

    Would that be similar to returning a VHS to Blockbuster without rewinding?

    Thermoelectric wine cooler drying and curing - DIY

    I guess that would depend on room temperature. I bag mine up and have an older compressor based wine fridge that I store seeds and bags of bud in, and keep it at 55f with no problems. I don’t know if dropping the temp below that would stop curing but I doubt it.

    Can someone please explain this?

    Yes, exactly. I’m growing golden tiger now, which is a cross of two Thai sativas and two Malawi sativas, then crossed to each other, so a hybrid of 4 strains but still 100% sativa.

    Oh I know…. She’s not even close. I’ll pull the Puck I have this weekend or early next week, they started flowering the same time. The Malawi will finish somewhere in between. If it all works out, I’ll have something drying from next week to Christmas, with another Indica run I haven’t...

    I was looking at the Golden Tiger this morning and one of the seed sacs looked partially opened. Here’s a pic of a seeded bud, I didn’t think of taking a pic until after pulling it off, but you can definitely tell the seeded branches vs the non-seeded. I pollinated her over 5 weeks ago, so...

    Outdoor rotating vertical hydroponic grow

    It should be easier indoors I agree. I’m interested to see how it works vs a stacked horizontal nft system.

    Outdoor rotating vertical hydroponic grow

    I had them outside for herbs and strawberries. I did use them a couple seasons and they worked, but they just turned manually, no motor, but movement of the sun did most of the work. I was having a hard time keeping an outdoor res clean and cool, so switched to raised beds for most herbs and...

    First grow WW photo strategy question

    The seedling will catch up, no need for dividers. Bend the bigger plants branches down some to lower the height.

    I’ve got my three SIPs going still, they are 17 gallon commander totes on wheels with individual scrog nets and trellis nets made of PVC. I have a journal I keep up with most of the time, I try to post here occasionally. Here’s my Ace Malawi A C&C Puck And an Ace Golden Tiger

    Thermoelectric wine cooler drying and curing - DIY

    Yes, let it stay at 60/60 and cure for a while. Even when it settles for a while at 60%, the centers of the buds hold moisture so it will continue to even out and start curing.

    Your peppers please!

    This is a good one, basic and tasty. I pickle my pepperocini peppers with a very similar recipe as well. You can add carrots and/or onion as well. 1 pound fresh jalapeno peppers 2 cups water 2 1/2 cups white vinegar 3 tablespoons sugar 3 tablespoons coarse salt, such as kosher 2 bay leaves 2...

    I have looked into diy freeze driers don’t get me wrong, there’s not an easy way, it’s cheaper to get a harvest right. I’m looking for a great idea though, anyone who knows how to make a diy freeze dryer let me know.

    Thank you! Yes I have a large dehydrator and dry lots of the peppers. I also just freeze them, works great but takes space. I’m dying to get a freeze dryer though, I know it’s not the same,a dehydrator vs a freeze dryer

    Your peppers please!

    Here’s what I was just saying must be a cross of pepperocini and jalapeño. They have almost no heat though, but bigger than either, so I’m now leaning toward a pepperocini and Anaheim. But to answer your question yes, they mix it up sometimes. The red pepper on top is missing the tip due to...

    It’s a beautiful day out, and many of my peppers are just right for harvesting next years seeds, so I’m keeping busy taking turns smoking and picking. A few peppers ready for seeding and spreading out to dry. Now back to work. I have hot sauce to make and brisket to smoke.
