Yes we have a lot in common. I really can tell. :high-five:

I was watching TV a while ago of the best jobs people have. One of my favorites was that of Ice Cream taster. These guys have thier professional ice cream spoons and that is all they do all day long. One of the guys spoons was made out of pure gold. He was a real professional.


 
Have you thought about using a wick system. With the OC+ you would only ever need water in the res, it sounds like it would be a perfect match!! I kinda got away from using the wick system when my Phs all went hinckey on me. I am hoping to get back to it soon though. I'll need to search around some for him/her, I would like to see it again especially if they are still doing it!!


Mmmmm medicated ice cream........
 
Isn't the water worm just a wick? Can't you just use any rope that will absorb water and a gallon jug?
 
FYI, found this
100 % Cotton 1/4" string in a 5/16 tube and keep the water container a couple inches above the top of the plant pot. Let the string hang out the end of the tube about 2" on the plant side and push the string into the plant soil packing the soil tightly around the string.
When the plant drys the string will be a wick and drawer water as needed.
soak the string first to start the wick action.


it works the same as if you took a bottle full of water and put it upside down in a pan of water the water in the bottle will not come out. But when you lift the bottle out of the pan just a little.. The water will flow.

Thanks Sisco! I look forward to your update too!!

That was 420fied's post. That post is the one that got me interested in doing 12/12 from start. It is an interesting concept. I am not sure if I will do it though. I really like to see the plants develop and get big.
 
Picture update.

Here is how the girls look today!

I am impressed with my little clones. The clone I took from the flowering Moby Dick is doing great. Like a little Bonzai!

Thanks Buddy!! Love the little Dick too!! I was thinking of a grow with about 24 to 36 of these little plants. I am looking forward to see how much weight it brings when fully matured. :thanks:
The big plants are now 39 days into flower. Really looking forward to harvest something as I am totally out of smoke and it is hard to score decent weed that can be of medical value where I am at.:yummy:
I am going to visit your journal now. I just noticed that you have a new son?!! Wow! Congratulations!! :circle-of-love:
:high-five:
 
Children are awesome! They make you stay active and young. It is impossible to be a true couch potato when you have kids. They make a person have a true purpose in life. Sometimes I crave some peace and quiet. But most the time I just love watching them smile and have fun. There is nothing in the world more precious!:high-five:

Couldn't agree more!

Those are some sweet looking "heads" on those girls! Sorry I can't share with you, I'd love to though!

I am getting close to having some decent smoke! I wish you could share with me too!! Ha! Thats ok though. It would be really cool if we all didn't have to worry about getting in trouble and could all start co-op and share our havests with the other members on this site.

I know you love kids too! :high-five:

Oh I am subbed! You said you put sweetener in your water. What kind & how much?

Thanks for stopping by James the 1st!! :high-five:

I use what is available. I have only been adding sweetener about every other watering. I am sure I could do more. I usually prefer to use unsulferated molasses. However this grow, I have some liquid carboload from AN left over from my hydro days. The plants seem to like it. Last week I gave them some root beer flavored syrup from sodastream and that seemed to work too. Been too lazy to get molasses at the grocery store.
The OC+ already has sweetener in it. I only put about a teaspoon of sweets per gallon of water. Maybe I could give more quantity or amount per feeding. I am still learning. :MoreNutes:

I couldn't agree more, I loved watching my 22 month old go up and kiss his new baby brother today. Then he tried sharing his goldfish with him. lol.... Without all the crazy moments you wouldn't enjoy the peace and quiet as much though.
