my homie big what's up today?

 

[bignstrange]

I was just wondering my plants are at four weeks i use fox farms nutes what should i be putting in the water at the time in their life

\/\/

depends on their light schedule and whether or not you plan to flip soon, I used fox farm nutes in my last grow - PM me for any questions you may have

Shorti is the shiet!

 

[Bigbud7709]

Agreed

BnS the pond liner I used from HomeDepot was 39.95 plus wood so I bet I spent 65 bucks to build mine. Definitely buy it. Next time I am in the city I may pester you for the stores name where you got yours.

Yea I can hit you up in a pm if your interested! I'm not on the mainland, but I think these guys might have more than one store! Just let me know!

Purple OG you say?

You got it Grandpa- help yourself .

Thanks G! The plan is starting to take form .

Try the milk crate thing though if you can get some. They stack so perfectly so if you are mixing strains and heights vary its easy to level them out and a tablesaw cuts the plastic really easily. I found out that restaurants pay 3 dollars deposit on them so you can buy them for 3 bucks each

I might! Only this is I'm running fabric pots n I don't want them sagging over the edges, I really don't plant on running more than 2 strains in a space at a time so I'm thinking for now I'll stick with pots right into the flood tray, it has drainage trenches and stuff so it should work well! Then it's up to me to keep the canopy more or less level .

Thanks for all the input G! I'm just making a lazy mana version of your system .

I use fabric pots too. That is the number one reason for milk crates. It gets air to the bottom as well as the sides.

my homie big what's up today?

What's up lil homie! Just waking up still getting my coffee n trying to get all caught up! It's usually 2 hours of reading in the morning to get caught up XD

Ordered some hydroton this morning to top dress my pots with, and also a little aquarium pump with air stones so that I can pre mix my nutes and aireate them to help get more dissolved oxygen to my roots! Thought you might be proud of me for that .

On the docket today is cleaning up around the house, lots of grow stuff to get tidied up lol get some winter tires on my sister's van, and probably take the dog out for some fun! Maybe a little smoking too .

I'm working my way up my feed so I'll be at yours soon, but how you doin Shorti? Gettin up to much today? Love n poofs as always my friend

Those are 10 gal pots 14" across and 16" high. The green crate beside the yellow is actually 2 4" ones stacked. The crates are 14 x 14 so the pots dont hang over

Hi there. Yes I'm from Saskatchewan but living in northern Alberta for the last decade. Where abouts are you at? So many Canadians!! Awesome .

So your doing a full grid of milk crates in your flood table so that there's minimal gapping between them? Makes sense .

Damn your pots are sweet :/ mine are like 22 inches wide :S I can literally only fit 4 10 gallon pots and 1 5 gallon in there XD

I'll see if I can find something that'll work for me, might have to get a bunch of milk crates and cut them down so they create a level surface in the tray, well see either way I'm miles ahead of where I was yesterday XD

Where ya to in Alberta? I spent some time in Cold Lake on the base back in the 80s. I'm from Newfoundland but I live in New Brunswick now. Lots of Canadians on here for sure.

I grew up on Vancouver Island. I spent alot of years in Central Northern BC and now I am in Kamloops. Its not the Island but Kamloops is a great place and the desert is dry so no humidity issues lol

Lol as soon as I saw where ya to I knew you were from far East . so much slang and little expressions I had to learn when I started working with a fellow from newfoundland, bugger cracked me up constantly XD

yes. my table is 48 x 48 and my crates ate 14 x 3 so 42 across each way if I use 9. That leaves just enough space between for the shop vac nozzle to suck the runoff

The wife made these for me to custom fit. They are a bit tall but my gorilla tent came with a 12" height extension so I raised it to 8 feet

Thanks Gee! I'll see what I can find when I'm out today :3

Yea I gotta keep mine down cause I'm not too sure how close I'll be able to get these cobs, I'm almost maxing out the height in my tent during the veg stage so I'm hoping I can keep them squat and let them grow into the lights without strapping them right to the cieling :/

Fingers crossed it all works out .
