Dabs an I got the panda up in the GR this afternoon!!! Such a huge help :Namaste::Namaste:.
We kinda got pinched on time so we didn't get pics yet but it looks fantastic. Now just need the 4x4 tent tore down and we're in business for the next round of flower :high-five::high-five:. Doesn't take much to get me excited lol, pretty simple kinda guy :rofl:


Was able to fire up the Camaro so Dabs could hear it purr a lil bit :-) on our way out the door, next spring we will take her out and get the tires round again from sitting so much lol.

Thanks again Dabs, that was a HUGE step forward for the room that would have sucked to do on my own :thanks:

Hope everyone's evening is going great, time for a night cap and a nice cold Stella ( lol thanks again eh Duggs, like I needed to have another habit lmfao)

Blessed Buds our friends and be well:passitleft:
 
Hey bud!

Certianly happy to help! I may need some aloe Vera for the couple hours spent under those boards . Was really fun getting a chance to check things out today hopefully the first of a few visits to the grow room.

I got everything all set up in the bathroom but I'm still not sure about light leaks.... don't really wanna think about it tho. Just glad we got ya taken care of today. And maybe this week we can get the girls over for a visit. Apparently I'm not the best with time management

Hope you have a great rest of your Sunday brother.

✌
 
Phewf! That was a great 52-page read :thumb:. Finally caught up as it didn't seem fair to jump in in the middle and have no idea of the amazing journey you've been on. I'm very late but I'm here repping southern California. Glad your missus is on the mend and congrats on all the work you're doing to help those in need around you. I won't have any advice to offer as an outdoor/CFL grower in soil, but I'm sure along for the ride :).

Heya Shed thanks for popping in our friend. Man, so envious of the outdoor grow!! Was chatting with Dabs about doing like a 300 gal pot outdoors as a goal one day but our season isn’t so good for that up here. Not saying it can’t be done by any means cause I know a few that do but pretty much just two months that would be good for growing then the rain moves in and turns to snow. Ever since I saw the video from your neck of the woods on the U tube I’ve been hooked! Freaking crazy monster tree plants......insane, in a great way :rofl: heck, what you can get from one of your outdoor girls would take me 3 years inside to even come close.

Thank you again for stopping by Shed, very kind of you. May have to pick your brain when we do try the outdoor chore :-)

Thanks Arctic, but I am not the guy to offer advice on outdoor growing with my autos in 7 gallon smart pots. The guy you want is Sphnx:
Sphnx's Norcal Outdoor Season
One of his many trees:

Good evening neighbor!

Hope you are enjoying the heat wave as much as I!

The Lilly bush is really packing on the pounds already! Super sweet aroma coming off her too. Hopefully the other plants can learn a thing or two from her .

Gonna change the water out on the tag and have a nice little toke. Thanks again for letting me borrow it. It certianly delivers a knockout punch

Sure hope all your girls deliver a great harvest brother. Yup yup loving the heat wave, saw a chick in shorts today strolling down 2 street :rofl: too damn funny, 23 deg and shorts lmao. Only in the great white north lol.

Sure happy your getting some use outa the glass, it was getting a complex sitting in its bag and not getting any use thinking nobody loved it anymore. Double pull that monster is the only way I could hit it......not enough lung power :rofl:

This is our temporary layout for the lights ( 2 more to hang but I ran out of ratchet straps ) and I have to find some hangers for the drop ceiling track so I can position the lights a bit more evenly and the 4x4 tent in the right corner still has to come down.

Before we light these off we will give ya a lil heads up before hand so you can grab your shades, think we will be causing a solar flare when they turn on :rofl: can't wait to see this shit lmfao.

Quantum boards!!!! I have been looking for a couple journals using these so I can start doing some research. I buy new lights every spring at tax time. This year I was going to get a sun plus but these quantum boards look down right nasty!
 
Morning to you Rooster and thanks for dropping by our lil cluster :rofl:
So far the QB’s are impressive and they have performed very well IMO any way but we’re not seasoned growers like a lot of folks here. Dabs is such a great person and friend for lending a hand with the Panda in the room, plus he’s tall and didn’t even need a ladder like me :rofl: Ms J could help but then she would be hurting (arm still not healed very well) so his help was monumental.

We’re tentatively shooting to flip on Saturday conditional on a shipment from the rain forest and Dabs will have 2 QB’s fired off here real soon as well, Pennywise is also running them plus others. GrayTail is running them and has some great contacts so I’d hit him up Rooster, great person as well! Hell, everyone I’ve bumped into here has been 100% helpful and pleasant to us, great people here in my book!!

Thank you again for stopping by Rooster, very kind of you.

Blessed Buds our friend and be well:passitleft:
 
Well the last few things we were waiting for showed up from the rain forest......YES!!! Gonna be a long night tomorrow putting the last touches on the grow room and taking down the 4x4 tent so we can flip these ladies Saturday as planned. Nice when things come together once in a while isn’t it :-) can hang the last two twin QB’s and up pot my last two veg girls ( ran out of 15’s lol, 10 are done) last two won’t get to sit in there new pots and adjust there going right to flower and if they can’t deal with it I’ll cull them then :rofl:


Hope you all had a great day today and that your Friday goes fantastic!

Blessed Buds our friends and be well :passitleft:
 
Heya Joe
Your not joking, that is on nice looking gal right there..... always wanted to try one outdoors like that, she’s a freakin monster! Something about a good looking thick gal :-)
I’m pretty sure we could veg one really well here during the summer no problems but it’s not that long say 2 months or so then typically we get a lot of rain later in summer and mold could be an issue but it would be fun to try none the less.

Thanks for stopping by Joe and hope your day is awesome!!

Oh , most awesome D,...sounds like everything has been planned properly and your gonna start using it all. Have you tested the enviro out as far as RH, temps etc...flooring.. ventilation..? Can you post a ffew pics of all your/s hard work...would like to see the lights , area,..etc.
Are you gonna leave the lights alone...at the very top?...i would. If they are strong enough, put them at the very top and leave them alone...just my 2 OK D.
Ya , hockey players these days are freekin huge ...if your a bigger kid,..you have a much better chance of moving forward with it, that's for sure,..unless, of course your super talented and a great skater. Anyhow , good luck today D and J,..excited to see it all get 'fired up'. Cheers ...
