Got around to chopping the DDS. Ran into some issues with her as ive said before. All my fault and nothing genetically. She was definitely a sticky girl and has a fair amount of flavor crystals lol. This is just the easiest bud to snap a shot of in the dry tent. Of course. I'm excited to see how the next one goes when i treat her better

Welp its not friday but hey its an update. Day 30 i believe on the BDxCD. Gave the GMOxCD her final topdress. She had some roots showing so she got a fair amount of fraft blend, bus blend, and bas ewc, kashi blend on top. DDS and DLA5xCD will get transplanted tomorrow.

The girls got new shoes. DDS went in a bin with fresh soil. The DLA5xCD went into what will be my first attempt at no tilling. Going to be interesting doing the next few topdressings as the bin is already at or over the top.20220911_231859.jpg

No but its super simple. 4 inch perforated drain pipe laid on the bottom of the 40 gallon bin. I try to cover as much of the bottom of it with drain pipe as i can. I do buy the end caps the make for them cuz im a nerd but oh well. The sight tube is a hydrofarm kit i believe i found it on amazon searching site tube. I can find it and post it if you want. Also can let ya know the drill bit size if need be. Drill the hole, put the o-ring in, the the grommet with the tube. Then i just fill the rest of the floor in the bin with vermiculite about to the top of the drain pipe. I do drill some extra holes in the drain pipe as well. Soil goes directly on the vermeculite/pipe. Drill a hole for the fill tube directly into the drain pipe and your all set really. I cut the square in the lid two letters in on each side. Then cut it in two to make top dresing easier. Greens probiotic thread shows some photos and there some diagrqm drawings on Google. Im in trim jail right now otherwise id find some of the links for you. If you want to wait till later in the day i can search em up. My fill tube ia just 2 inch pvc cut to height

As far as building my sip. Super easy... and not my idea. I got it from @Greenthumbs256 one of his threads has a much better write up. i also copy some of his images here for you

Here is a useful drawing to show the idea

I use the site tube from the below kit but you could make your own easily. If you get this one it is a 3/4 inch bit to drill the hole. I just use the o-ring, elbow, and blue tube to be detailed

General Hydroponics S4115 Farm Kit Hydroponic Drip System, Brown/A https://a.co/d/3N5TJ50

I typically mock it up first so i know where to drill for the site tube and fill tube(both drain pipe and bin lid). Then drill your site tube hole and the hole for the fill tube in your drain pipe/ bin lid. The drain tube part is the least fun. I use 2 inch pvc for the fill tube and cut notches up the bottom for more air flow.

Mock it back up and start to cover as much the bottom of it as you can with 4 inch perforated drain pipe. Fill the rest of the floor with vermiculite

Finally Friday update. Secound round of DDS is looking happy and is starting getting worked tonight. DLA5xCD is not happy yet but also started getting worked tonight. Blue dream X CD is out of control on day 39 lol. Im trying to keep the GMOxCD lower so she got tucked a last time i think on day 5. I am pretty much out of horizontal space with her so she will probably start her vertical adventure now. Hopefully i kept her short enough. Going to have to up my training game. I do have a press coming on Monday to start that adventure. Im open to tips, tips, newb advice on that one or anything topic really

Learn something new every day. Friendly PSA to anyone reading, set the screen lock on your timers! When i raised my lights the other night they apparently lined up perfectly with the buttons on my timer. Do yall think this will be enough of a disruption on the 12/12 to herm her out? This is for the GMO that was on day 12 yesterday.

Happy Friday everyone! We are at day 60 on Blue Dream x Chocolate Diesel. Day 26 on the GMO x Chocolate Diesel. Double Dipped Strawberries is showing a little wind damage but still seems happy. DLA 5 x Chocolate Diesel looks light she is hot but it should be my coolest tent because it is right in front of the shaker. Need to get more dirt, compost, and kashi this weekend so i can drop another couple seeds/strains.

Day 67 on blue dream x chocolate diesel, debating giving her the chop. Looking at her she has some time yet before being done or ready but i am running out of gas in the soil and. Day 33 on the GMOx CD. She seems to be content. Double dipped strawberries is still doing her thing and dla5xcd is still not happy. She is hardly growing and looks hot but when i lasered her she was at 76f. Experimented with the press a bit last night and did identical presses comparing 90micron vs 120. Personally didnt notice much of a difference either way. Similar yield and appearance. I am editing to say the 90 is better smoke
