Bob Bitchen's Beans Meltdown F1

Thank you to @BobBitchen for the seeds. I'm super stoked to try growing regular seeds for the first time. My room is a 6 x 3 enclosure with three led panels running at 720 watts when fully dialed up. I'm growing in 50/50 coco perlite using AN sensi coco grow nutes and a blumat irrigation system. I switched from DWC to coco last grow and so far I'm like that there's a lot less work with coco. The blumats pretty much made it hands off, I really only have to deal with the reservoir once per week and that's it.

These seeds were started three weeks ago. They've been topped once at the fourth node and I'll top all but the lowest branches again in another week so everything is level.

Feel free to add any comments or critiques, I'm always looking to learn more.

Subbed up for the cleanest room grow on RIU

I got my medical permit that allows me to grow up to 49 plants last Thursday a couple weeks after I already started this grow. :cuss: So this will be my last small scale recreational grow. I'm planning out my mother/clone area now and will hopefully start building that later in September. Next grow will be 10 plants looking for a mom unless I find something special in this grow then a 24 plant SOG.

Sweet. Had mine for almost a decade now, peace of mind knowing you’re fully legal to grow said amount of plants is great. Too much for me to lose not having it IMO.

That’s so awesome! I am so happy for you. Your such an amazing gardener and it’s been really fun watching you progress . You have been a real help to me. I am still using the r/o system you recommended.

I was almost ready to give up on it, I think it took five months to get approved. The company I used said it should take about six to eight weeks. I should probably renew it now lol.

Thank you Amber. I loved that little ro buddy and you can't beat it for the price. I've stopped using RO since switching to coco, it was perfect for DWC but I don't think I need it anymore. I flooded out my basement one night when I fell asleep with it running, wrecked a bunch of the laminate floor planks lol.

Hope this goes well
I will follow along just to see the OP's regular photo change in her avatar :hug: :hug:
LOL.

LOL.
Lol. Oh I am sorry to hear about the flood but have to chuckle because I have almost done that before as well with filing up the garbage can . Leave it running and then hope I wake up In the middle of the night to stop it before it over flows. Lol. I have gotten very lucky with some close calls . It’s a dangerous way to live. ;):p

You can only renew once you get the papers, but do it literally the day you get the renewal request.

It’s pretty much all a joke, but legal so it’s gotta be done.

I tried a shut off float on my garbage can but that didn't work very well. I think the problem was that it continued to build up pressure and would eventually blow the line off the float. Curious2garden had the same overflow thing happen in her basement lol, I won't miss that.

Subb'd because the room is so nice.. Ridiculously well put together.. And your boards aren't dangling all over.

Very cool :blsmoke:

Edit* Title would probably get more hits if it was "Laughing Grass' Meltdown"
@bk78 is being modest. You should check out his room too. It's very clean and tight... it also has hardwood floors!

Mine was issued August 17 so I probably won't get the renewal for a while. It was ridiculously easy to apply and there's no verification or anything. I didn't even meet the nurse practitioner in person. Just a two minute webex meeting.
I’m watching you @Laughing Grass. Love you and your room.
