I hear ya. It's getting pretty full alright but I made a path to find my way back.

One of the girls didnt take to kindly of me taking the lower stuff. First one on the left is kinda sagging so I gave her extra water.
Then I fed them all double strength nutes (Earth juice, not the hard stuff) 560ppm pH 5.7

See how she does tomorrow.

Ya know, I really liked how that hole turned out, Next year I am going to dig more of them.
Place the plants next to the holes and when they reach the ceiling drop them in and flower... I like it.

That hole has worked a treat man, got a near perfect canopy now, with room to work in as well.

how do you up the nutes of one of your plants in your system? i always thought they all ran off one res?

They do all run off the same res. When a plant needs a little extra something I mix in a separate container and hand water it but I keep them all on the system that waters or feeds twice a day at 8:00

Right on, I always wanted to do a vertical grow indoors, never got around to it.
Last year I got more then plenty so I didn't mind training them back this year. Yep, lookin at pounds alright.


That one plant that was sagging from the pruning yesterday is coming back around. So thats good.

Sure was man, I think I got a better handle on it this year.

Ha! Well, people were asking about max so I figured what the hell.
I'll bet it is cooler down there but that's not the awesome part about it man.
I pick up valuable headroom sinking them down like that. Ill have six of them next year and be able to go without a screen. That will be bad ass.

How tall are they above the screen?
Im trying to keep them under 2 feet above the screen. If I can do that then when I see flowers I can let them go and I should have enough room.

Now that will be showing off alright. LOL

We love Max, probably as much as you!!! I always wonder how deep/wide one would have to dig to make a geothermal sink to pull air through/out of. Max is great though, I bet he cant wait till harvest!!

Lovely setup, would love to do a greenhouse someday if my location wasn't so terrible for it. Keep up the good work sub'd and keeping an eye on your progress.

Thanks bud, My guess is it would depend on the size of the hole. The larger the hole, the more air that could get down there and warm it up but just a foot underground is much cooler.

Well, I figure the screen is 2 ft by 6 ft and the canopy is about 2 ft thick. It sticks over the side now that I been training more to the middle and its not like its just full of shoots, there are some low spots too. I'm still training. Lets put it this way, the greenhouse is 8 x 12 and it is dam near full with six plants so I'm guessing 16 sq feet each.

I saw some spider mites today, mostly on the plant closest to the intake. I hit them all with AzaMax again... I kinda slacked off cause I wasn't seeing anything.
Should have known better.:wall:

Hopefully you can nip it early, so later in flower there are no issues like last year ;)

I went and bought my BT today, for the caterpillars. Decided to start spraying now.

Good move. Gotta do that prevention thing.
I got an arsenal of mite killers, first is the azamax and neem, then I have a full bottle of co2 I can gas them with, A couple Dr Doom foggers not to mention the hard stuff, Floramite and Advid. I'm ready for them, if I see any more I'll break out the big guns.

I'll get a couple pics of the outdoor tomorrow but I took a couple of the cab, its there daytime.
Got a little bud porn for ya, Bubba kush from greenhouse seeds. Trichs are almost all cloudy at about week 6 flower.







That's super micro setting and a tripod.
