Breaking Brix: Buck's DIYs

[Justwannagrow]

Would be nice to see a close of one, how is the tricome production?

I wasn't able to stop at my grow yesterday, had a side job to do on way home. I'm heading there now. I have the microscope that you gave me the link to. I'm going to grab it and get some pics. I've only used it once.

Tonight will be 1st time home before 10 o'clock, have 2 acres to mow too and it's a 100 degrees out lol

I lucked out, my oldest helped me get the yard mowed and trimmed. I got some close ups coming in few mins. But here's few pics using Bic lighter, hope that helps to get a reference, pictures sometimes doesn't due a plant justice. The biggest plant is 4ft tall, just topped and 18 day veg, threw them in to try. They smell like lifesavers gummies, it's cali og from cks. Very frosty and a hearty plant.

Cali og

White cookies

Sour diesel

I'll get some triche pics up in few mins, got to get internet service.

Oh yeah you got some real nice size colas in there. That microscope is pretty sick, should be able to see real clear up close

Nice trich pics Buck! Plants look amazing bro.

 

[Buckshot317]

Thanks, dude that's hard trying to get good pics without shaking. I took a bunch of pics, then just had to cut a few buds off to do

Amazon has some pretty cheap but decent tripods. They are essential for on the plant trich pics.

Welcome to 420

A 600 DE CMH would work great in 4x4. 400w is on small side. The ceramic metal halide lights are great, I think they are little better than hps.

Sour strawberry

Going to give girls their first brix spray in the morning. Cherry vanilla and sour strawberry are definitely ready. The hucks are starting to drink more and the new growth has that bright light green look. I think they are ready.

Hey there Buck.. freakin eh buddy... Looks like you're killing it running on all cylinders! The weather looks to be cloudy with a early frost warning! Great job bud! wow.

I can see a major trimming party in the not too distant future.

It's amazing to see all the ladies with very similar results. I always gauge my success by my ability to have repeated same result. Your grow all the ladies look mighty fine... very very good job.

You need to build a team and grow pro bro! Just sayin...

 

[Buckshot317]

Thanks bob, there's 3 different strains. These cobs have done a great job this round, I'll never go back to hps now. I'm going to cut one today, going to have all cut by next weekend.

Thanks Bob

Girls just got a light brix spray, I mixed it a little light for the 1st time, try to see how they react. Going to give drench in few days

 

[Buckshot317]

I think I might have put too many lights on my new panel. I just fired up the 2 white channels. They effin blinded me. These boards are super bright, I'm glad I didn't get the 200w boards.

. That was half power with overhead lights still on. I have feeling these are going to blow cobs away, and only 1050 ma

 

[ShiggityFlip]

Well that's six boards at 100w each you basically made a single ended 1000w hps. And that's before you add any cobs! I bet once the whole array is put together you never go above 70%!

 

[Buckshot317]

With better spread. I want to run at around 1000-1200 watts for a 5x6 area. All my future builds are going to be boards, especially since the price is good, just not these, they are expensive.
