It doesn't 'hurt' it does impede you from obtaining maximum growth rates. Try it for yourself. It is undeniable to witness in person. Put half a 4x4 of the same clone on one of these http://waterpulse.com/products/retail-capillary-mats/, a Blumat system, or an Autopot system, and watch how well your hand watering side does in comparison. I don't care how good you are, use a soil hygrometer too, the side that has a constant water source will destroy the other one. There is a reason hydro out performs all other systems...and it isn't because it drowns the root system...

So you run blumats for DTW coco?
Sounds like a fun experiment for next year.

I get PM from lack of airflow. The air can't be stagnant. Of course, PM is a mold too.I never have a problem with PM anymore.

These same plants have suffered from some PM that keeps coming back. Was planning to spray some Canola Oil with baking soda early in the morning . How do you prevent PM outdoors?

Yoda, the plants are located on the patio in full sun. Its not shady and they do get early morning sun. By 360, I meant that each plant is by itself, there are no other plants touching or surrounding them to block the wind, so when it blows they get the full breeze.

Good news is no signs of rot on the Half and Dream Catcher so plan to harvest later today--after the neighbors bring the dogs over for a backyard dog party. We've got hot dogs and ice cream for the dogs and the grill going for the humans!

Here is another blumat thread for soil people:

and here is the king of all blumat threads and info:

So why don't I use them anymore? I don't like all the lines in a big op, tweeking of them, cost, et cetera. 60 gallons res's and waterpulse mats are my thing. I will top water to add certain additives from time to time. Blumats are awesome though.

On Greenpoint news, gotta say that I feel bad for Gu~ for dealing with other seed vendors. He keeps trying to offer different selections from different breeders, but it seems like he keeps getting the shaft from the breeders.

I understand Rusty changing his business plans but I don't understand his ignoring Gu~

Thanks for trying to bring new gear to Greenpoint, @Gu~

I understand the ignoring completely. It's called federal offenses.

you think Rusty backed off after Gu~ got the packages seized?

bc Gu~ doesn't seem to be scared off by whatever happened. He just changed the shipping method?
Click to expand...
Why quit? He will go until something happens if it ever even does and I do not think it will. I would too. What is done is done no point in quitting. I think rusty dropped off exactly for that reason. Gu made him self a target with his business practices concerning genetics (don't care whether right or wrong just stating fact). Who wants to be a target of a target? Doesn't take a genius it took someone ratting him out to postal inspector for his packages to be seized. That is how the game is played. "Fuck with my shit and I'll be shipping off meth to your box all day long." Is a quote I have seen said before...@30 bucks a g in most places this is highly plausible too, lol. I believed-em. Lots of ways to get at people why it's best to be low profile and not try to rattle too many cages. I don't think going on people's instagrams and poking bears was a very wise thing to do /shrug

When it isn't federal anymore it will be a better playground, but until then you are still reliant on federal shipping.

hmmm, maybe.

Guess its all speculation. But if someone got caught doing a crime, say robbery--or any other crime, once you get caught it would seem unlikely they would keep doing the illegal behavior.

Its just a guess, but I'm just guessing that Gu~ got a warning and a slap on the wrist for mailing 'contraband'. Perhaps something similar to when seed packages get seized by customs.

From my own personal experience, I know that Rusty has a pattern of not responding to emails. Awhile ago I placed a big Cannaventure order but it didn't get shipped for over a month. I was in contact with Gu~ who said that he had tried contacting Rusty multiple times but didn't hear back from him. Gu~ forwarded Rusty's email, and he did eventually respond to me directly. So I think its just something that happens once in awhile.

Yeah it is certainly speculation. But there is a huge list of people over there who will also no longer answer his emails. People realize poking too many bears isn't the best thing to be doing at this current state of legality. And using email btw is just dumb. don't do it people. Use a a safe forum for messages (hint icmag). Once you have done it your self you tend to steer away from others doing it. Just isn't worth it. The canuks are the worse lol. Like a little weed mafia in many circles. Best be legal before you start encroaching on their shit.

Bro, the seed game has always had drama just now there's social media, not just forums. Just gotta read shit man.

Keep your ear to the streets and you'll hear it all, better to be blissfully unaware though imo.

@growslut is right about Rusty disappearing. I believe it was july when it took almost a month to receive my cannaventure order, which according to gu ships direct from cannaventure. The reason at the time was a family health emergency, something with his mother if I remember correctly. Idk that is the reason this time but it is plausible.

From Gu's own posts in this thread. heh...Yeah Gu has been trying to push other peoples seeds for a long time and why wouldn't any company in the seed business? It is extra money. He was the one who posted no one answers him anymore including everyone who has left the site. None of this shit is really worth talking about though /shrug non factor to all of us and doesn't need to blow up into a gossip circus so going to just leave it here.

Yea that does suck from my brief time with dealing with gu he seems like very good ppl! Hes always done right by me since my first order! I can see why some ppl hate bc of how he got that stardawg male but shit if he wouldn't have done what he did then we wouldn't have these amazing crosses! I'm my opinion fuck everyone else I'm glad he bred that stardawg it's everyone else loss that they didn't do it first!

I know they "LED" discussion has ended, but I wanted to share 1 more thing with you all.
I figured up what it cost me to build a 720 watt COB LED light for a 4x4 space. Will blast PAR way above mandatory CO2 induction. 1200 PAR at 12" above canopy. Right at 1 buck per watt. $700.00. That is with 5.88" heatsink(best) no tiny fans needed. with these heatsinks.
If you want pure power with running less COBs. Around 600.00 for 720- 900 watts.
Isn't as bad as what people think. If you can drill a hole in a pc of aluminum and follow some simple instructions, You will be amazed at what you can accomplish and never have to do anything to your lighting for 10 years.
Ok, I'm done .

I've been thinking about doing 4 quantum boards to cover a 4x8 space but until they get cheaper or I hit the lottery I just can't afford it!
