Ancap or smokedup, could you please post a link to the fans you bought? I can't seem to find a suction-cup fan that isn't for a car anywhere. I'd appreciate it.

Awesome I switched nutes out today so it is in it said to add 1ml for 1.5L that would be 40ml or so for a 50L res but if u recommend 175ml no worries I will up the dosage right now.

No slime to report there is some slight algae but I will deal with that after harvest by playing with the lid. Snowballs are the size of my thumb and starting to smell the sweet nectar everytime I open box.

175 mls if you battling slime 50-100mls for prevention

I tried looking on Target's website, but I couldn't find the one I bought. It's 4" and the suction cups do not come with it. Just grab a set of them from Target or Home Depot. You can find them just about anywhere. The fan cost me $6.99.

Day 27 Flowering

I went out of town for two days and returned with everything under control (thank god), just a little taller and bushier. I turned the co2 off while I was away to attempt to keep the tallest plants from over growing. Co2 is back on since it looks like all vertical growth is coming to a stop. When I came back from my trip, the box was starting to look overgrown on the left side even though many of the lower branches were already removed. I decided to cut another dozen or so branches that I knew would begin overcrowding the box and giving me much grief later on. It was very difficult cutting off bud sites, but I believe necessary in achieving a good balance in the tight space. My current nute ppm is 1000.

Looking great ancap. Question for ya:

When I turn my Co2 on override in order to adjust the PSI, I get it to 5, then turn the override off. As soon as I do this, and check the gauge again, it's up to 9 PSI. Goes backdown to 5 as soon as the override goes back on. Do you have this problem as well? It seems odd... but i'm far from any sort of gas expert.

Yep, same for me. As long as you have it set to the PSI you want while the valve is open and running.

hey are you a medical grower? cause it doesnt seem like a good safe idea if i were to have it shipped to my apartment when it isnt legal for medical marijuana in my state is it?
The website does not say marijuana, it's simply hydroponics. "BIG YEILDS" can mean big yields of tomatoes... ETC.

The guy at my local store failed to give me the little spacer that doesnt come with the co2 valve when I filled my tank 1st time and I went back for a refill 5 days later he gave it to me then. small plastic thing with a hole in it that goes in under the threads.

Yeah, that little guy is very important. My co2 is lasting me forever on this grow! I have a new regulator, so my last one must have been leaking pretty badly.

its looking like i will prob use 1.5 not including the one that leaked into the air. Well worth it 40 bux for the added yield no question.

hey ANCAP... you have any pics of the harvested Ice buds???

you really harvested the ICE after just 47 days of flowering???

You realize that, Nirvana's Ice strain.. takes a good 9 to 10 weeks before its fully ripe.. right?

Anyhow, just wondering if you have any pics available.. of the harvested Ice plant. Let me know.

peace.

I've never harvested Ice. This is my first time growing this strain. You are referring to a post I directed to someone else who made that claim.

Day 31 Flowering

I'm looking at about half of these plants and getting a little discouraged, hopefully for no reason. The bud formation just looks a little weak or slim. Please take a look at the pictures and tell me what you think about these thus far into the grow. I've mixed in shots of decent bud formation and weaker bud formation. My humidity is around 45% now, which is great. Finally I've mastered humidity I think. So far, these girls don't stink.
