Breaking Brix: Buck's DIYs

I have one plant hanging to dry, white cookies, they didn't stretch at all but they seem to be some of the stickiest I've had in a while/ First time in several years that humidity was over 35%, mine is usually around 20%. My area has very low humidity. I gotta get something to scrub tent down to kill the mites, that and I'm going to spray my room around the walls to kill bugs, haven't sprayed in while, don't like to spray while budding. Also getting some more lady bugs and praying mantis, they seem like good preventive measures

In going to have to get a final weight this round, I've never weighed my total, since it's for personal. I'll get some more pics up later. I think I have everything I need to install a top feed drip irrigation system. Bought a 14 gal barrel, I just need big enough for week at a time. Also have air pump and 2 4 inch round air stones to put oxygen in nutes. But first gotta get tent cleaned out and kill the mites. I'll start spraying the plants in the veg tent before I put in 5x5, I'll spray 4 or 5 times within next 10 days to wipe them out
Love the mars panel on the ground.... Hahah.. Were it should be..
 
The girls are finally in there new home. I'll get them all transplanted this week.

. The 3 in back left were put in paper towel on the 28th of last month, growing great, stalk big as my thumb. 2 of them are cali og, and 1 bubba kush from cks.

. Here's all together, sour diesel and white cookies clones from last grow. I think I got too many again. I might have to put 2 in 3x3 later
 
Just did quick check, at 12 to 15 inches I'm an even 900 ppfd all the way around. I got dimmers set at 160 watts at wall, with last row unplugged. I'll get some better measurements when I get tent cleared out. I want to see what numbers are when drivers are maxed, with 4 cobs per driver, then I'll check with 5 cobs per driver. I'm going to free up a driver for 5 of the meat chips(1750k) when they come in.

Arrival date of the meatchips is May 24.
I called Future and they set me up with a distributor acct. told me if I called it in (instead of web order) they would have shortened the wait time. Well now I know. Got my own rep there now. So I get an extra discount and faster service from now on.
 
I was half reading their instructions, they keep micro mold per sec something . They was referring both numbers as the same. This weekend I'm going to read up. 900 was consistent everywhere in the tent. If I cranked it up I'll probably need CO2.

900 is about right. At 8" at max power that number will be around 1300-1400. More than enough. Like you said anymore and you need CO2.
 
Buck's 1500 Watts Of Vero 29

I think the meter has 2 modes sample and log mode. Should be pretty simple to operate. About size of iPhone, thin

Ya. I checked it out before I cheepd out on mine. Lol. Mine has half the features of yours. Micromoles and data logging only. I have to use the "snapshot" feature then plug it in via USB to do plotting averages.
Yours will do some crazy stuff like live data logging on a mobile platform that spits out a graph and data. Runs on a giant 4 axis rail and will measure the PPFD over a whole area automatically.
Hardcore!

That's my next project, doing away with tent. I like to get a 4x4 table and pan, be easy to work on plants. That would be most accurate way to test, using a light rail. That's the 1st time seeing that vid, I thought I've seen them all.

The Cree averages 900 at 12" and your Vero's average about the same. Id say that's pretty good for chips that were half the price. Do you have any double row rails on your build?
Love dem double rows! Well over 1000 on the doubles. That's what I use in the small tent at 10" apart. This new Grow gets 50-50 4000k/1750k(V18) so that I can get some data on the 1750k and post video results.
 
Here's a purple plant that came from bag seed that friend gave me. It's spongey has decent triches. I probably throw it in freezer make some bubble hash. I'm pissed I wasted nutes and electric on these 2 plants.

Nice colour but so shaggy.
Some guy offered me some bagseed for a deal on lights. I was glad I said no.
Lol.
Might make a nice edible oil?

Yea, it's fluffy, but very sticky. I didn't really trim it, just threw it in freezer. That was 1st and last time trying bag seed. It's more of a sativa, but not like some of the higher grade that I've grown in past. Probably couldn't get an oz off 6ft plant
 
Ok, I think it's time to start this journal over. Tomorrow I'll post some pics and give list of nutes and strains for 1st grow under the cobs. I'm going to transplant into air pots and smart pots, try to do somewhat of a comparison grow with the pots. Probably run 2 different nutes also Heavy 16 and Advance Nutrients. Don't know if I will use the heavy 16, currently using at different location with my 1000 watt DE tents. Also sprayed for nutes once, going to spray 4 or 5 times and wait couple weeks then rinse a few times and turn ladybugs loose again.
 
I received my beans today. Got a surprise, ordered 5 pack of gorilla bomb, received a 10 pack. Got 36 good looking seeds. I'm wanting to try the kosher smurf, as expensive as 6 pack was I'll probably start 1 or 2 then cut clones. I've never tried any of these seeds before, I did sample moneymaker, it was a good strong smoke. I also got a duck silencer, I love the hyper fans, really efficient, but extremely loud. Hopefully this will knock the edge off. Here's a couple pics
