Damn Mo, I wish I could grow outside. I did in the 70's while in collage don't know why I stopped other than life, work, locations I would move to and from, family, and having a ver good friend that grew in Humbolt county and I would get a lb. of top quality buds for cheap. Damn that was good pot.
I really like your grow dude.

Peace out,
GR

@ NUGBUCKETS......you said how this method was not suited to sat dom plants...but you never said why....this is a sat dam is it suited iyo??

 

[gr865]

OK, all you wannabe Tim Taylor's, which I am not. The only thing I hit with a hammer is my thumb. That's why I use screws.

Cabinet is 32x48x74 inches OD. Grow space is 30x36x74" for flower and approx 30x12x74 for flower, may use this area for storage and build a separated veg room. When complete will have two fans blowing across the plants, a Wind Tunnel 4" 200cfm fan, a Phrish 200cfm filter and the lighting is California Light Works Solar Storm 400W LED. If needed I will add some CFL's but my grow is a two plant Mainline in three gallon Smart Pot's and four clones that I saved from the disasters I have encountered so I should not need the extra light.

Started installing the door. First thing I noticed was that I had fastened the hedges too tight and could not get it to close properly, big gap for light to excape. So I took the henges off re aligned and re-installed them only to find that the door is bowed some only minor.

Question is, how do I seal this to prevent light leakage. Each door has double 3/16th weather stripping.

WOW, how much dry weight was that?

There is a thread on another site, don't think I can mention the name of the site on here, but they suggest changing the name of this style of grow, do to the negative impression the term Mainline.
The term that is suggested is Fluxing, the thread is called;
[h=2]Fluxing Technique!Featuring Critical Sensi Star - Soil Perlite Mix 400 HPS [/h]flux (fl

ks)n.1. a. A flow or flowing.
b. A continued flow; a flood. See Synonyms at flow.


4. Physics a. The rate of flow of fluid, particles, or energy through a given surface.

What do you folks think?

 

[FuckJeffGoldbloom]

Hell no lol, Fluxing????????????????!!!!!!!??

I understand their reasoning but "fluxing" that does not roll off the tongue right... what is this the flux capacitor...

The negative impression would be because of injecting in your veins, and injecting marijuana....ummm not good lol

I like how nugbuckets refers to the manifold, as a little v-8, looks like a small block lol, nugbuckets coined the phrase, and though he seems very modest when he says "i call it mainlining, and I'm sure its been around" but he's the one who brought it to huge light, and documented it, so i say we stick with nugbuckets terminology...

Fluxing lol...

haha good for a laugh my 2 cents

 

[shadyslater]

^^^^^^^^^^^with ya FJG^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

[FuckJeffGoldbloom]

It does resemble the mainline ....

 

[budtoker0987]

lol, ya Mainlining sounds way better. Fluxing sounds like Fracking... Frack that! lol

 

[Javadog]

I just got a laugh from the earlier questioner:

"Do you refer to the stretch as 'Shooting Up'?"

Hilarious!

I do not mind the name.

Nugs gets the call. That is all I will say on the matter.

I heard Subcool mention that mainlining is similar to a technique used by grape growers. I wonder what they call it?

We are a bunch of creative types. Maybe we should have a contest to pick a less drugie sounding name for this awesome technique and Nugs can be the final judge.




Discuss...

Hi there everyone.

Just wanted to share some pics of my mainline grow.

Today I switched my lights to 12/12.

Here's some pics of the grow.

I am offering up the word (TWERK)ING as a suggestion. 1. it is a kind of dance we do with are lovely lady to get her to produce bountiful fruit in a very aesthetically pleasing way to a point of exhilaration.
So as a woman twerks that is bouncing her buttocks to entice with that wobble and jiggle as sh positions herself in a low squatting balanced stance to do this. Thus we too position our ladies in a well stance wobble and jiggle those luscious budding branches....

Twerking (/ˈtwɜrkɪŋ/) is a type of dancing in which the dancer, usually a woman, shakes her hips in an up-and-down bouncing motion, causing the dancer's buttocks to shake, "wobble" and "jiggle".[SUP][1][/SUP] According to the Oxford Dictionary Online, to twerk is "to dance to popular music in a sexually provocative manner involving thrusting hip movements and a low, squatting stance".[SUP][2][/SUP]
The word twerking is of uncertain origin. Possibilities include a contraction of "footwork", or a portmanteau of twist and jerk.[SUP][1][/SUP]



Haven't perfected the art of twerking an 8 top yet. This is as far as I have gotten these four ladies to twerk for me.
