Looking good NV! Can you tell me how your using that watering system in your pics? Are you on a timer? What brand? Have you had any issues with them? Thanks!

'under review'... which is better than 'just say no' http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/drug-decriminalization-united-nations_5624d88ce4b02f6a900cd2a4

My deepest sympathies brother. All of our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Hey FranJan. What Illumitex are you running?

I can't wait to see these strains coming up. With 3 weeks of veg they're now in flower and like you noted they are exhibiting fast veg and beautiful structure. . I'll get some closeups for the next update. As to the yields I'm not disappointed at all but I think they'll get better. I went...

The Conex numbers are in. What I can say is that round 1 was a learning curve so we're only going to improve on these numbers. We're also getting closer to determining what strains are ideally suited for these conditions. The quality of the finish was exceptional. We compared trichome...

I wish! Sorry nothing anywhere near that size. What I can tell you is that a fair percentage of the greenhouse jobs come in with just the standard 420 covering a 10' x 10' area for just supplemental lighting. Check out the greenhouse report they generated from a small job which showed the...

Gavita makes a good product but they are way overpriced. The Digilume DE-HPS 1000 has been rocking the IG trials for quite a while now and those systems are available for less than $300 without having to look too hard and it's the same lamp and ballast...

The trial was set up out of frustration and just seemed to take on a life of it's own. Pretty much like the party cup comps have done which btw has been enormously enjoyable to watch evolve. As to what IG proposed in the tent they were set up for a single Pro-420/Pontoon combo. Depending on...

What started out in a FB group called Just4Growers was a suggestion that any of the 4K members of that group could offer to conduct a trial in where the same genetics and conditions within 4 x 4 tents would allow any lighting technology up to 1000 watts could compete under a live stream format...

Nice looking finish there OHD! How's the taste and high?

Hey OHD! Very cool indeed. Thanks for sharing. I think these could be huge if they prove themselves in the real work garden trials of cannabis. But like anything there are multiple roads that can get you to your destination. I like when others take a similar path. To some extent it's...

Thanks for sharing the cut and that info. Since this will be the first runs of Alien Bubba and DSM I am really looking forward to seeing what these strains can do in 1 gal pots. Here she is in her morning glory.

The DSM, while off to a slow start, is looking beautiful today. We're going to do you proud!

Day 38 Update. While I search for the ideal genetics for a stackable conex grow I ended up thinning out some of the plants to give them some breathing room. At this point the plants that seem to be doing the best are the GG4, Obama, and the Chronic Thunder. Thanks to SCRob who hooked me up...

Since both stackable shelves experience the same environmental conditions I think it could be interesting if the same genetics were ran on both shelves with the only difference being the lighting. Why not? :hump:

I've heard of that being done as a stealth measure and as a way to maintain geothermal equilibrium. I guess the disadvantages would be you lost the drain portion since we let gravity drop the water out of the tubs into an exterior reservoir also exterior access (rust prevention), the potential...

Thanks for the support GG! It means alot. This has always been a dream of mine to develop. Part of it comes down to the fact that these are systems that can be built and sold turnkey with identified genetics that have already proven themselves in these environments. The other side of this is...

Being in So Cal there is a plethora of deals to be had on old Conex shipping containers. You can get a 40' in reasonably good condition, for around $2,500 that won't leak, much, and will close up as tight as a ducks butt. I've seen other 'modular' building grow rooms that went from trailers...

That dedicated cooling circuit and the cost to cool it would be what makes the difference there. The 420/Pontoon @ 460 watts adds about 1600 btu/hr compared to a 1000 watt with electronic ballast @ around 3500 btu/hr. Plants are looking mighty nice!
