mickey mouse toolset. i'd use a hole saw if i had one so i drill out holes and use a stanley knife to hack the sucker out

draw around the top, then draw a slightly smaller circle, that your cutting limit. (else net pot would fall through :P)

hack!

silver that batty up nice and good

i've found that just one of these airstones and a tetra150 pump are all that's needed to get your clones rooted. pretty darn quiet

everything i need for some cloning. bushy cheese mother there, little thirsty still but it'll have to do

4 clones later and she's ready to be re-vegged. was getting a teeeeny bit too big for the tent

4 clones ready to go. in 4 weeks they'll go into 12/12, and bearing in mind they seem to take 12 days to root, they will not be too large. depending on their final size i might even take clones 2 weeks earlier to give them 4 weeks veg from rooted as opposed to 2, but we'll see

realllllly taking off just 4 days in the main cab under the HPS, gonna boost their feed up a bit in a tick. they've also got a 150lph tetra pump per airstone (2 stones) so they've got some bubbles. should have opted for a single 300lph dual outlet pump but oh well, i can always buy one and swap one of these pumps over to a mothering bucket

peace

look fukin awesome for for days mate well done and great pic show of wot ya dfoing lol
ta :) gonna be upgrading that light to a 600w as well, then i can fleece off the 400w and as a result have a friend growing who can grow cheese and save me the effort of keeping a mother. although he's a plank so i don't think i'd trust him with the only cheese :P

i like this DWC more and more every time i have to do something. certainly feeding is a more painstaking process, being 20l of water and all, means i'll have a total of 120L of water either in use or evaporating off in readiness, need more cupboardyy!

but man, i filled my cloner, and then just left it for 3 weeks without doing anything at all to it aside from fretting about whether they'd rooted yet. with my heated pop and peat i was having to wet them every day, top up the drip tray, at the same time be wating my plants every other morning, it was madnesss, this is gurt lush!

Yet another bad experience with GHS. I agree with west WW and S1 are probably the only ones you can consider from GHS, other than that, low chances of getting good phenos with them, high chances of mutants as well.

Man TTT, that was a terrific update. Very clean work mate. Everything is looking beautiful.

I am getting very interested in DWC, except the part about changing the entire res at a time. I though there were folks just topping with water and nutes. I know people did that with Lucas and did great.

i have to agree with u bender about ghs, gettin sum shit from them and too many people seem to be having similar probs, think i'll shift to speedyseedz, at least he's on line and u can talk to the guy.

Speedy sounds good, although they don't have as large of variety as the tude but none the less they have a good selection of breeders. At least the ones I like the most.

Prenuptial Agreement


Please sign,
I, THE UNDERSIGNED, AGREE THAT...

1. In the unlikely event of my not having an orgasm after you've drunkenly rolled on top of me and pumped away for five minutes, wheezing like an old man with emphysema, I shall politely fake one.

2. I fully understand that a woman's main role in any relationship is to take the blame. So when you stub your toe in the bathroom or your football team lose, I agree that - by some complex scientific equation incomprehensible to woman - it will be my fault. Even if I wasn't there.

3. Whenever my friends and I get together for a girlie chat, I will tell them that you are better hung than a large-balled Himalayan yak.

4. And I will also mention this to YOUR friends. A lot.

5. After sex, I will not expect you to cuddle me for hours till your arm goes dead. Nor will let my hair annoyingly get in your face.

6. I will never, ever give your penis a "cute" nickname.

7. In bed, I will be as keen as mustard to try any novel sexual position you fancy. Especially ones where I do all the work and you just lie there, grinning.

8. After we split up, I will never sleep with any of your friends or colleagues. Or anyone else you have ever met. Or may one day meet. And if men attempt to chat me up, I will solemnly inform them that you have "ruined me for other men".

9. I understand that mechanical objects like cars, computer games, and remote control devices are beyond the comprehension of women. I will only make a fool of myself if I attempt to operate them, so you're in charge of the lot. Except for the iron and the washing machine, of course.

likewise, i've a few GH Lemon skunk, which i'm now slightly wary of, i'll pop em of course, but i don'tlike the way these two are going, just pissy and moddy over anything i do for em. i've been watching the cannabis cups etc and i'm realllly wanting to try barneys seeds now, jsut gotta get the cheese grown out

the lack of selection seems to be because speedy will only stock greenhouses he deems worthy, wheras attitude will stock any and everything they can get their hands on i assume.

yeah, i was reading into the lucas formular just yesterday but i'm gonna avoid it if i can. while it all sounds good, and can work no issues, if you give them a full feed week 1, of say 40ml and 10ml of that is K, well come the enxt week, it could have drunk all the minerals but left 5ml of K in the pot, which would rack up a certain EC reading. If you are able to tell that there is an abundance of K left after the week, then ideally you'd add feed with a lower K level to accomodate the plants lack of requirement and surplass still in the tub
, but as it is, it's sut regular feed that goes in meaning you now have an increase of K by 5ml meaning you're EC/PPM is being made up of large quantites of unneeded minerals and such.

as you say, shifting a 20L tote each week, and soon to be shifting 3, and then having 3 spare sets of water evaporating, it's a bit of hassle but seems to be a safe way to give your plants just what they're going to use.

nice man, i'm avidly watching this mate coz i'm gonna start building a set up within the next two weeks, how much and where did u get ur ec meter and what kinda nute set up do u use, i.e how much , what kind and how often?
i actually picked up all my kit from a local hydro store so it was slightly more expensive than say ebay by about £2 an item

i'm just running the canna Flora and vEga A and B with some PK and soon getting boost etc, basically canna's line. i have yet to bother doiung anything propperly, and figured that if 120ml of feed is full strength i'd just throw in 60ml on the first week and then second feeding i'd give full strength. never thought i'd be the one buying my plant food in 10L bulk :P

just checked my clones, was having some issue with the bubbles not quite getting the cubes wet, but they're mostly all standing up proudly again :) i have magic clone fingers! stolen undoubtedly from las fingerzz

I see your point about lucas, it makes sense.

No wonder when I was looking on speedy I was looking at my top choices, very good, speedy it is next time.

yup, i mean if i knew i could safely just tip a jug of water into the res and that's that, i would, that would be ust the ultimate DWC.

i'm a man of ambition though (i mean one evening and i decide that i am gonna blackmail the govt with 2 million pro cannabis votes :lol:)

i am thinking about setting up a big water tank in the attic (we'e all the plumming and such allready up there) which will feed straight down into the grow room meaning that i don't have to have spare totes of water waiting around, and then a pump to drain old water outside. would be pretty good.

oots of ideas pop in and out of existence i my world :)

I know what you mean about constant thinking and coming up with newer ideas. I find my self thinking about different ideas and techniques all the time. Most of my spare time ends up getting consumed by growing medicine for myself.

Your ideal DWC setup sounds really good. I otta give DWC a shot one day. For right now I am getting killer results with coco.
