Boo’s Perpetual Grow Journal

[BooWho2]

I'm waiting for any grandchild action so far over here

Best of luck to you Stone!

babies are such fun to make stuff for.

And buy for!

Believe it or don't, I crocheted a blanket for our first born

Oh, I absolutely believe that! You’ve used knitting needles in your grow before....

Well aren’t you just full of surprises......and talents.

LOL! He really shouldn’t surprise any of us anymore.

My vote would be - now!

And I did!

Congrats on that beautiful POTM! Pegged that as a winner early on

Thanks so much Shed. You and Carcass both! I think my Zkittles may have gotten that big had she been given the time like Chocodope was. Still, it was sooooo hard waiting for her.

congrats on the upcoming blessed event...a girl!

Thanks again! It’s fun to know.

I'd say when they need watering more often than every two days.

Oof! I shoulda done it sooner.

We sex cannabis sooner than babies!

I hope so because I have a ton of plants in my Playhouse right now and I need more room! assuming they are not all girls

With a granddaughter on the way, you may eventually need a bigger second playhouse...

Is it Tuesday?

I went ahead and transplanted the Octuplets into 1 gallon-ish pots. They took it well. That decision pushed me to make the decision to put my two SF 1000s into the upper and lower sections of my little cabinet. They fit really well but are a lot of light for a little space like that. Lol. I've got them turned way down!

Lower cabinet.

Upper cabinet.

Most of the cabinet. All 8 are sitting between 25-30k Lux. Maybe I should go a little less?

I've been wanting to get the Playhouse and both tents ready for summer so I decided to add a "Y" connector to my fan so that I can draw the hot air out of both of the tents to the outside. That was my hubby's idea and since I've only been using it at speeds 1 or 2, I thought it might work out. I had some 6" flexible ducting I had bought a while ago because I hate the rigid ducting I currently have, and then I actually found another one at Lowes the other day so we were set. I also wanted to mount the fan instead of strapping it down but I was hesitant because I'm sure I'll find a better way to do it after we've put holes in the rafters, so we decided on a board across the width of the upper portion of the Playhouse, sitting on the window sills. The pics aren't great, but I'm kind of a shorty so there's that.

Keep your eyes up! That's the board with the fan and the Y attached. It vents straight out the window.

And here's a slightly closer view of the Y connector straddling that beam and the flexible hosing going to each tent. I need to straighten up a few things and will likely have changes, but for now, this is a huge win for me!

That's a sweet new rig!

Nice work on the upcan and fan! I understand how you get to the upper and lower sections of the cabinet, but how do you get to that window...or is it a break-out-the-ladder thing?

The leaves will tell you if it's too much light.

Lol! You get to that window with an 8’ ladder! Opening those windows requires it too. Crazy waste of space, but it is what it is. The temps have cooled off by almost 20 degrees after the storm. Yay. It was close to 90 degrees here today. Too soon!

Hopefully I will be able to tell if the light is too much. They are starting to get little things where their sex will show. Too small to get a good pic right now, maybe in a couple of days.

Nice job on the rigging Boo. I noticed the sensor for the fan is on the floor. Is that because you were still mucking around with the setup?

Not sure what pic is showing the sensor on the floor.. but regardless, I’m still mucking and the sensor is tucked away neatly in the cabinet.

Ah, OK. Maybe it's the power cord pluggie thingie. Bottom middleish.

Ah! That’s the USB end of the little infinity fan in the back. I need to get a little adapter for that!

Nice set up Boo!

 

[BooWho2]

Hi all! Hope everyone is enjoying the day. The Octuplets got their first feeding since upotting last week. They are all very happy and green and working on their 5th nodes. What an easy set of seedlings so far.

Grape Krush top, Purple Skunk Haze/Grape Krush bottom.

Beautiful Boo!

 

[BigD13]

Easy, happy & green. Don’t get much better than that.

Happy Mother’s Day Boo!

Happy Mother’s Day Boo!

Same to you Heavenly!! I hope your day is/was great!

 

[Carcass]

I hope your Mother's day was a great one, Boo!

 

[BooWho2]

I hope your Mother's day was a great one, Boo!

Thanks Carcass, it was! I hope Mrs. Carcass had a lovely one too.

I love that upstairs/downstairs cabinet!

I love that upstairs/downstairs cabinet!

Me too! It really has worked well as a seed starting cabinet and now with the SF 1000s in there it is really making me think I could easily grow a full term auto in there!
