I toss "blue Ice" frozen packs in my rez, in a pinch.
yeah thanks! I was freezing some 3/4 full soda bottles but the upkeep sheesh
I think when I get the Ice Probe I linked above with its controller and attach it to the reservoir it will all be good, and automated :)
I will attach a hose (4"-6" not sure what I will need) and feed it into my exhaust from the light to have it exit the room.
want the reservoir at 66 constant without raising the RT about like 80 tops.
I will take some pictures as I do it (re-model)and use them in my next journal.

got very busy just lately and so even tho I am keeping records still about the grow I have not had time to post them all.

Recent : Harvested 2 of the 5 plants (Mona and No4)
Both are hanging in a dark cool place with a fan blowing on them and a DampRid in there with them.
Looks like a good amount for the smaller 2 of the 5.
Jessica, Sandi and Emily are flushing with 2 gallons of distilled water and 40 ML of FloraKleen.
They will be harvested on Thursday or Friday.
It is week 8 of flowering so they should be ready
all are showing cloudy trichs with most also showing a few amber ones.

Trimming was a sticky job to be sure
saved all the trimmings as well as the scrap fan leaves as they fall off.
Pictures tonight if all goes as planned.

Heh sorry about lack of info, have not even been in my office all week and getting home late.
I will get some pictures up very soon
3 of the 5 plants are still growing well the other two are in jars.
and out of jars, and back in the jars, you know.
As far as yield, I don't have a scale so I have no idea.
I will try and remember to put something of scale into the photos to let you have a better idea as far as size / amount.
Still growing plants (ripening) are in a reservoir of distilled water with 40ML of FloraNectar (molasses based)
PH is 5.5 and PPM is 550 staying pretty steady at that for the past 2 weeks,
and are getting very nice looking. Big fan leaves are yellowing and falling as the plant uses up the remaining stored nutes.
I stopped nutes and flushed about a week ago when I did the Indica heavy plants.
The more Sativa phenos still need a week at least before chopping.
The jarred plants No4 and Mona are acquiring a nice smell altho' very different from one another.
They are still very sticky and not completely smokable yet as they still don't tend to burn very evenly.
One plant (Mona) is very purple almost pink on its buds.
No4 is very brown and spicy.
I am on vacation soon so I got busy tying up ends before I leave work
I will try and get time to post images tonight.

drive-by image update

1-2 Emily
3-4-5 Sandi
6-7-8 Jessica
(Last Jessica [8] for size comparison, as you can see she is just a wee bit wider than a pack of smokes about 1/2 way up)

9-10-11 overall shot of last three alive

Images of No2 and Mona buds tomorrow
Mona buds are light purple, I hope I can see it when I take pictures :P
Thanks for the support all thru everything
flurry of updates coming in the next week.
(to fill the recent holes)
