Like a massive octopus on its head after being dipped in sugar...multi topped and a foot over the rest of the plants in flower and dominating the whole space around her. Can see the Glue in her, posting cuts back to the chucker next week I'm that impressed. May keep any males I find in future to chuck with.

Forgot to mention my heat went out again last night, I wake up to a 57 deg house and a 50 deg garage, this after the hvac guy was here yesterday and said system is fine, please pay 165 for service. Told them I thought it was the thermocouple, looks like I was right.

Possibly one of the stresses I forgot to mention.

At least it cool so I guess that made trimming a little easier.

Going to add a fan in the lid and ink bird temp and humidity controllers.

My girlfriend would literally die, she likes it about 74.
@SSGrower I didn’t realize how uber-stealth you were running, that’s crafty stuff.

Hey @LubdaNugs - how long do you run straight water at the end to get your fade? Your plants are gorgeous. I harvest very green plants compared to a lot of you, and I know that’s horribly unfashionable, but my final product is typically top notch so I haven’t changed much. I am, however, interested in leeching the life out of the little rascals before harvest so I don’t have to cure for a minimum of a month if I don’t want to, but these are pretty green after two weeks of nothing but water. I don’t know...just thinking of trying something new. I imagine a really good “flush” is easy in hydro, but this soil seems pretty rich. Whatever...I probably shouldn’t change too many things at once.

I’m straight water throughout my grow. I use a organic super soil at a rate of 25-30% at the bottom of my containers. My current mix seems a touch off, my fade is starting a bit sooner then I would like.

I see, thank you for taking the time to answer.
In soil I tend to make a “not quite organic” super soil, cook it for a year, and then feed the crap out of them with my hydro nutes anyway. I have done water-only runs, but not for a while. I also feed pretty heavily in DWC compared to some folks. (EC ~2.2 for basically the whole cycle.)

Everyone has their preferences, seems like my preference is to tinker with and change everything all the time.

Thermocouple is super easy to change in many furnaces. I had one go out in a house I was renting and didn't want to hide shit for a handyman to come over so I youtube a video. Basically unscrewed the bad one and screwed in a new one, easy peasy.

@Michael Huntherz the bucket is to slow the drying prosess. RH in this area is typically less than 30, often less than 25 colorado 2/3 of it is high alpine desert. Trying for 70's in both temp and humidity, not sure exactly where it'll land tho.

65 is as low as I can go in winter, in summer I can do 50's, that's the beauty of low RH is we always cool off at night I don't have an AC and neither do most of my neighbors.

If you have volt meter check for continuity in addition to voltage. There's a couple different type systems out there so def youtube it. The hvac company told me it was going to be the gas valve at a cost of 650, told them no thanks I need to investigate further and thank you for refunding the original 165.

11.99 at hd and bout an hour plus an hr to go get it.

Edit - I owe the local parts supply store a thanks and shout out to Federal heating supply http://federalheatingco.com (one of only a few that sell to the public) for confirming my suspicion and holding a valve ($240) just in case.

Had some beans that didn't sprout in the peat pellets after soaking,sinking,cracking,papertowel till tap emerges and into jiffy pellets over the last few weeks. I usually get sprouts 1-3 days after they are in pellets.
If they aren't up by day 7, I get ta diggin' into the pellets to see what's up. I squeezed some,they mushed up,I tossed them.
Well I had 2 that were still firm so I just tossed them in an aloe plant I just got. Didn't mind to label them or mark their spots in the pot with a toothpick. Forgot all about them until I went to up pot the Aloe vera plant.
Well wuddayafuckinknow something sprouted.
Have no idea what strain this is. Gonna transplant them both and see what's up.

The seed hull was still fitted tight like an old school leather football helmet, misted it off. Plant is sitting near a window, hence the stretch.

Excellent news man. And why do so many skill laborers try to fuck people over now a days? Knowing damn well that it is only a thermocouple but trying to fuck your holidays up with a $165+650 bill? Like crooked ass mechanics. smh

I was so high on dabs and gabapentin, not to mention drunk... I really didn’t know what I was looking at for a minute. :bigjoint: My birthday party ran into today a bit.

It’s really dry here on the northern edge of the Great Basin, too, I feel you.

But I’ll fix a friends furnace for much less, especially around the holidays in a no heat situation
Labor, overhead, company vehicle, bond, insurance.....

$90-120/hr is a common rate in my area
I think he means intentionally misrepresented diagnosis to make a little extra money off unwitting customers. Most folks mean well, but there is the same ratio scumbags in HVAC or plumbing as any other group (seems to be about 10%)

Yeah. misrepresenting problems because they think the customer doesn't know better.

Most of my friends back in the midwest were carpenters, electricians, mechanics and all sorts of trades so I was luck to have someone to go to but I've heard a lot of stories from other people of being over charged, especially by mechanics.

I have to much pride in my work to rip people off. I want that job to speak for me long after I'm gone. Just wished all others did.

But I understand paying a good fee for skilled labor/trades and most of us earn the money we make by being honest.

I’ve found that incompetence is the main driver in home repair technicians of any sort from the rooter guy to the HVAC tech, I work in HVAC and have seen techs go out on multiple calls replacing something new every time until it’s fixed. Hire union, if you’re not able to get a friend.
