WhoDat back at it.

Your farm looks fun. Wake up, drink coffee, smoke shit. Go out, walk around with coffee, smoking shit. Go look at compost pile. It's smokin'. Go build veg room. Smoke 2 bowls. Build smoke. Build smoke. I could do that all day. On a farm. Where I'm growing weed. With donkies. I fucking love donkies.

Nice work Whodat. You have your life dialed. Maybe one of these days I'll be on a farm, too. My wife is a farm girl, country kid. I know I've prolly already said it, but she'll get her way, lol. Little angel she is. . .

By the way, was gonna go grab an aquarium heater so I can get my tea temps up. I think the ambient temp in the lab is probably in the low 60's, and I'll produce a bigger colony if it's closer to lower 70's. You ever pay attention to your tea temps? Kinda a weird question, I know. But look at who you're talking to, lol.

They are all very well behaved lol. That one your talking about has the most hilarious heehaw, cracks me up every time.
Strange how they just wondered by walking down the highway. Iv tried to find their owner with no luck, I bet they were let loose by someone who couldn't afford to keep them. Now that Iv found a cheap source of hay I can hang on to em, but in the beginning I dropped allot on bagged feed.
Started out with three, then the one in the very back gave birth to the one on the far left. That was mid last year I think.

You got the idea bobo I cant wait to get my chickens and rabbits going, thats gonna be great. I got a vision for this place.

Tea temps are important, too high youll kill em off and make it damn near impossible getting enough o2 in the brew. Too low and they wont be very active at all. Mine sits around mid-high 60s. As long as the temps in the room are normal you shouldnt worry.
Im gonna bust out my hanna tri meter again just to observe the numbers, I honestly dont need it but why have the meter if I aint gonna use it! (old hydro stuff)


Ok back to it!

well whodat here's the first line-up of stage one early flower nutes. Good stuff and there's more to show but wanted to give ya a quick glimpse into me putting your tutiledge to good use! Thankyou once again for the BEST advice i have ever gotten here!

wow, mang killer soil waiting to happen! People dont give donkey's enough credit imho!

Hey Whodat and nyone else. I brewed my tea with just Liquid Kelp, Dry Kelp Meal(no powder) and molasses. No nutes n such. My thing is my soil is amended well, How often should i top dress? all my pots are dressed with about an inch of EWC as well.

Whodat, what fans do you recommend for 4 x 4 tents, one with 2 x 600 and one with 1000w? I need to upgrade, they're getting too hot. Turned the Co2 back on and I'm getting high 80's in the 1000 tent and topped at 90 with the canopy where I want it in the 2 x600. Time to make an investment!

That is freakin' awesome! And you have donkeys? lol

Thanks for stopping by everyone. I'll get back but for now I'm in go mode. Yins are thirsty and I'm on track to having veg and xplant done tonight.
fuck, only 1 cig left... I'll smoke it when I get this done.

Get er done, son! And post some pics too, lol.

Question for ya... when do you switch over from veg tea to flower tea? After the first couple weeks of flower normally? Same approach as bottle nutes?

If your soil is amended well and your containers are big enough then you shouldnt need a top dress. See what the package says, oh and castings you can always go heavy on They looooooooooove castings and allot of ot.

Iv cooled 4-600s with a single 435cfm fan,,, but I also had ac. Dont be afraid to let it get in the 90s with supplemented co2. Even without co2 Iv been running mid to upper 80s temps, I could lower it but they seem to like it.
edit: but that was in a sealed room. Cooling lights and cooling a room are different. There is some standard cfm number out there,,,,,,, like every cubic foot in your room a minute? or something? sorry I dont have any good input here.

Pretty soon actually, maybe even a flower feed before they switch. I also like to give a veg feeding every so often during flowering.
But honestly this is just how Iv been doing things, doesn't mean its proper.

Get er' done...no, but fucking hell I slept good last night, thats for damn sure. So tiered I couldnt even update, may the day 18 update rest in piece lol, never to be seen or heard from.
Didnt finish everything, even with keeping the babies up an hour past bedtime. They look great in these 1.5 gallon containers... thats right Iv been fooled all these years thinking Im using 1 gals lol.
Running pretty low on soil but Im almost done, may have to get creative here.
Will give a proper update when all the pieces are fitting together

Thanks dude. Yeah, I love busting my ass like that so I'm so tired I can't keep my eyes open. It's a good feeling on multiple levels...

Donkies are rad, btw. They got such a bad rap from cartoons depicting them as stubborn. Sure, they can be, but they're fucking funny creatures, too. Yours look nice and fuzzy. Very petable.

They are very friendly, they will follow me around begging for petting sessions lol Except for poppa, I cant get close to him, he mustof been beaten or something.
Unfortunately they have a very sad history with humans Worked to death, worked in mines so long they go blind because they have never even seen the light of day or grazed a single blade of fresh grass in a lifetime. I dont know how someone could do that to another living thing and not even think about it.... very odd... I hope we evolve soon.




edit: No freaking lie! My grandmother just sent me this link.... Wow, are you reading my RIU posts granny? lol

http://www.npr.org/2013/01/10/168894175/clinics-come-to-the-rescue-of-ethiopias-overworked-donkeys?sc=emaf

That is super sad. I'm not sure who can do that shit, either. My wife watches all sorts of animal documentaries, and I almost can't handle it sometimes. Too sad. I come in and she is bawling in bed... I don't even have to ask. I know what she's watching.

What we do to animals, and our own earth, makes me question why humans are even here sometimes. We're a whack species.

True dat. I cant stand watching those shows or commercials,,, but people who care more about animals then other people makes me sick as well. I recognize all the bad things in this world, but if theres nothing I can do, within reason, I clear my head of it and try to live a positive peaceful life one love.

Check out my edit btw ^^^

dude... grammy's on some psychic wavelengths. That's seriously wild. Between the shirt and this i officially love your grandma.

You know what I don't get.... why people subject themselves to watching shit that makes them horribly sad? I see those commercials and feel like life sucks, so I turn them off. We are all crazy aren't we. Some just have less violent tendencies to their craziness.

I'm taking down my hydro setup whodat. Going all in. It's an exciting day.

No way! Your granny is tuned to you... don't think she doesn't know you're growing the chronic

Yeah, it's all about balance and treating everything equally well. Hell, I get mad at my dog for .5 seconds and I can't help but give him loves and tell him I'm sorry. He's such a smart little fucker... I forget he's a dog sometimes, lol. And now with the baby I'm like "who could just let their baby cry and cry and not give a shit about them?!" I'm a big softie. I think I'm a distant cousin of Jig, lol.

edit: Lol, and there he is! Beat me to the post, the Jig! Good luck with the breakdown today feller!

edit edit: I can't watch those movies either. They ruin me.

Hahaha I know, the t~shirt was too much hahaha I was laughing pretty good when I opened the box and saw that, especially with the timing of previous events.

No way! going soil, all the way! I really hope things run smooth and this is a good experience for you.

Thanks for the reply WD I can't run Co2 and AC at the same time as my unit displaces the Co2 enriched air and the tanks are empty within a day. I'm good with mid 80's like you said and suggested when you helped me setup my Co2 system, but I'd like to get the hoods tighter on the canopy with the 600's because they're at least 20".

I just looked at my fans and it turns out their only 200 cfm wind tunnels. They've been a great fans for single 600's but I need to double the output now that I've added lighting. I just ordered 2 Hydrofarm 6" 400 CFM fans, I think that should do the trick (hopefully). The ambient room temps are 70, so I hope this will work well. I ordered a couple Lasko 20" floor fans that I can place in the middle of the tent to blow upwards too, anything I can do should help lol, but I'm sucking a lot of juice!

Have a good weekend everyone!
