morning PB…if you give them enough room you don’t need to top…the side branches will reach up to match the main stalk…BUT if you crowd her then the side branches won’t reach the top…just my experience …beautiful girls growmie…
all Buds TV is streaming in my grow room…
breakfast of champions comes to mind…ahahahahahaha
I recently watched something about not topping anymore an I’m trying it on a couple to see what it’s like , the guy said the majority of big operations don’t top anymore bc it will catch back up 
that really sucks about the thrips may you swiftly get rid of those little fuckers
I’ve seen that same info on we the growers
Yep but montery garden spray kills those bastards real fast! Like 1 day. Thrips i can handle but mites are a serious threat.
Have u ever tried Venarate for mites. Stop the ones i got in last grow. Also it’s supposed to be organic. Was told that from guy that has medical grow house in Kansas.
Yeah man i love me some weedies! Man with breakfast like that one you posted you must be skipping lunch and have a lot of work to do. i only eat like that when i have a lot of work to be doing. I dont have time for eating and im bad with food. Food is not a priority for me and ive been known to go 2 days without eating food. Im really bad with food …I like it but ill put something in the microwave to eat and forget its there oh well i dont need it i say. Today i had a 1/2 cup of coffee for breakfast and then at 9am i ate 3 pancakes and then at 2 o’clock i ate 1 oz of pretzels and chugged protien shake you know coffee flavored ones. And i brought a microwave pizza for lunch and never ate it? Im a strange bird man and my mind thinks once i have some food with me thats as good as eating the food?!? Yep its all mental will power that is all outta wack!
I have not tried that. Interesting. I have tried like 15 kinds of pest control products on mites and what i have works. But i also have some toxic ass shit i dont even want to try! Reading the warnings really doesnt make me want to spray that on something id smoke later.
Ok update here. When i started i checked all the environment parameters.
Air temp 82f. stuck here cant get it lower.
Water temp 68f
Ppms 750
Ph 7.1 eek!
Light - summer mode 63% power 15m sunrise and 20m sunset modes.
Almost to the trelis now! I flipped them on 6-21-2024 so 5days ago and there not even stretching yet! Its gonna get ugly quick but i got some new tricks for this run.
Ok recap
Air temp 82f
Water 68f
Ph 5.9
Ppms 800
Looking great so far.
grow is looking good PB…
Thankyou sir! Its a lot easier to deal with than soil really. Both grow styles have there pros and cons. But id like to set up my big 10’ tent and run the 8 sites again. Im toying with the idea of taking out an inner wall in my utility room to increase the grow area! But i need to install a multizone mini split. And im trying to decide if i want to go with a 4 zone for $2700 or 2 units at $2400?
Go with the 4 zone compressor make sure it’s high seer with heat pump. Not much more but u can always add 2 more heads if u need. Mitsubishi makes nice stuff but if u have problem with 1 head the whole system stops.if u like ill ask my AC guy what he recommends he is huge Rheem distributor.
Nice do that ask your friend. Im seriously looking at the mr cool 4 zone 27000 btu units. There a 4th generation and they have precharged lines for do it yourself guys like me.
And i can get a 30% rebate for the entire cost up to $2k back so im gonna do it shortly! Its the next thing im installing. I want one for my garage also because i insulated when i remodeled it.
Will have an answer tomorrow for u.Reason I said get them with heat pumps is because it could become helpful in winter.
Yeah i am getting it with heat pump. This house has central heat but the venting isnt very good so it makes more sense to me to just go mini splits and cool/heat only 3 areas?
Yep if u get 4 zone compressor u can always add 1 more head to it remember the compressor will have the freon in it for that 4th unit
and that can be a good thing…
Maybe but the last 3x they stretch to the roof! This light has so much power i dont need to raise and lower it. I just change the intensity but its as high as it can go because the last 3x the plants got F’n Huge and i had a hard time controlling them. And i have holes cut in the roof of the tent and this light is connected to ceiling joists with big hooks. It a seriously heavy light.
Im gonna try and do a better job of trellis work but this double tent kinda sucks for having the support bars connected because the poles are on the other side of the wall in the little front tent. So there is no way to move the trelis up or down. Once its connected and using it to flower and veg is tricky with this hydro set up inside and partially outside the tent. But im trying really hard to not use more grow space Or more of my equipment.
