Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

Wonderful advice, reading your steps. If your commited, you can grow some serious pot! But for me, a few plants is enough and a pound is out of the question.

I'm doing exactly what Stinkbud originally did this for - I provide medicine for 3 other patients, two of which are seniors who suffer from forms of Leukemia, and one who suffers from insomnia. They all prefer edibles, so I tend to grow leafier flowers for the oil I make.

A setup like this is perfect. Doesn't take much space either. I'm going to start out with two 10 site systems, and in the future possibly add a third.

I've also made a modification to the veg unit. I wanted something that was easy to disassemble, so I added two 1/2" male threaded piece and a 1/2" female threaded piece to the long PVC pipe that extends through both rubbermaid tubs. This will allow me to replace the pump if needed, and clean out the tubs when necessary.

i like that threaded piece idea ,i may use it

hah, looks like someone already did that on page 143 already. I'm determined to read the entire post

Not too much that hasn't all ready been tried. Alot of info over on Stinkbuddies.com also concerning this system. Glad you got them DJ just spreadin the love.

hey i jus purched the dvd on stinky website and was wondering how do you change out the nutrient on this system can some one explain and posted pic

Just get a hose and put on the ball valve then turn pump on to drain I drain mine to my outdoor garden.

I would like to know? With your Idea on the set up how many plant could I grow in a container(18 Gal. rubbermaid) Or is it a 18 gal. under and 18 over for this set up? I like your Idea if I was going to grow just for me but I have to give half to the co-op, So I am looking for quinty and Qualty. And if I go for 2 or 3 months can I get a 1 pound per plant?

very great information thank you stinkbud!

I have a 400 watt M/H and I have used it to veg in the past. I prefer using the t5 floros because they seem to keep them shorter (less internodal length).
I actually put the M/H in the flower room and hung it verticle style over the first flowering post. I'm trying to add the M/H into the flowering room in an effort to supplement the spectrum where the high pressure sodium cuts out.

thank but the t5 talking along time im veging 25 plant with it so thhe 250 watts might help speed things up a lil

just order the dvd from stinkbuddies.com anybody know how long it take cant wait to watch him in action

I'm currently on page 306 of the thread (still determined to read everything, even after visiting stinkbuddies.com). I have my Romulan x Purple Hash Plant cuttings in my cloner, been going strong for a week now, but I have no clonex in the res, just 3 gallons of RO water pH'd to 5.8. I still do not see any roots forming.

I know it can take up to 3 weeks for roots to show, if not more. For people who have used Clonex vs not using Clonex in your res, was there a noticeable difference when adding it to your res?

I'm also redesigning Stink's master design to have 2 flowering systems with 3 36" 4" posts for a total of 15 plants per system - it's what I am able to work with inside my 4'x4' grow tent.

Thanks to everyone who's contributed on this thread - lots of good information!

Thanks a bunch.

Also one more question - since the point of this method is to follow KISS principles, has anyone tried SB's flowering systems using the Lucas Formula? I'm currently using it in my ebb and flow grow (after using Advanced Nutrients for years) and I love it.

I use GH three part flora series. I have used the lucas formuala and it worked just fine. You will find that your non organic nutes flow better and the roots will be very white. I have added liquid kharma, Diamond Nector, and gravity as additives. I say experiment and try different things. I have been just going one week of flush and my stuff tastes just fine.

Stinkbud I had a quick question. What if I increase the veggie time to 6 weeks and set up 2 more 14 sites system instead of using the smaller veggie unit. Do you think that would be a good idea? Im worried about the roots getting too big and covering the sprayers or the plants getting too tall. But I figure if I could veg for 6 weeks instead of 3 I'll be doing close to 2 pounds every 3 weeks.

Fresh - from what I've been reading, you can veg as long as you want, as the veg time will determine the overall height/weight of the plant. For Stink's Sr. system, veg them no taller than 12", which is about 3 weeks under a 250w MH bulb. Other people have veg'd them until they got 16" tall, which gave them 4.5 foot tall plants.

It's all about dialing in this system to suit your needs and using his plans as a starting point. I'm on page 600 after a couple weeks of reading and there's some awesome setups!

First of all Id like to say I am a big fan of your setup's and also in awe of your contribution and care for those you help, and I mean that with the greatest sincerity, so thank you on behalf of those who still give a damn about others in this world

On another note, Id like to ask you what brand/type of timer you use for your 1 on/4 off water timer?

Ive looked for a timer to do the same but cant find one in minute increments, only 5 min.

Ive seen many digital timers, but they don't specify on the packet which increments they use..

Thank you Stinkbud
