Yep that's about what I'm looking to do Sky, but the runoff will be disposed of. It would make it a lot easier on me, not having to move the plants to water.

A friend of mine made this cross, along with the AK X, and several other crosses I have.

Then you'd be best served to plumb in a drain line right to a house drain pipe. If you have an RO setup, you can plumb fresh water in and down low waste water out. Sounds pretty self sufficient to me and an overall good idea. Someday when I am rich and famous, I plan to build a small stealth cabinet that incorporates both of those ideas and many others of course. I'd like to have a gravity feed tank mounted high with feed line and waste line plumbed from the bottom (or even 1 line that splits after). Also want breathable walls that channels air flow and the added layering would decrease noise. Basically, I'd like to incorporate every good idea I can find and make a pretty self sufficient cabinet that accepts a single power chord, and RO line screw on fitting, and a waste line fitting. Everything else would be addressed in house so to speak.

It's been really busy for me, had lots of stuff going on here, everyday life stuff. My 250 watt bulb is here, just hasn't been delivered yet, since the mail is late today, but the tracking info says out for delivery today. I transplanted the two larger plants into 3 gallon smart pots, since I don't have the space for 5 gallon pots, and they really need the extra lumens from the 250. I'll flip them soon, just have to wait for some new growth where I accidentally topped my poor plant.
Hey dank looking good buddy. Best of buds to ya!
your plants are looking great, that ak47 x cherry cheese is such a nice strain to work with. if you do get any males then id have to say its well worth pollenating a couple of the buds to get some seeds, im pretty sure you will be more than happy with the results,
put it this way it was the 1st strain i ever grew, i got 10 seeds as a sample and had to send a review to the seed bank i got them from which i did, then i contacted them to find out where i can buy more from.
ive had nothing that comes close to the ak47 x uk cherry cheese, the nearest so far was the sensi star, not potency wise but by the amount of trichomes, im hoping the big buddha cheese thats nearly ready to harvest will be close on potency and trich production, but anything ak47 x uk cherry cheese is crossed with has produced very well, the only one im unsure of is the cross with the purple cheese as it was an auto crossed with a none auto so that needs more work, but anything else seems to do very well indeed.
plus the ak47 x uk cherry cheese is such a strong pheno type that it always comes out the strongest in the cross so its certainly very stable and who ever produced that strain was on to a clear winner. im pretty sure it has been released for general sale but possibly under a new name, i cant see the breeder not releasing it for sale when it gives results as good as it does.
so id have to say if you get a male then cross it with itself or something other as the results will be pretty amazing, they just look like real nice plants and ive not had any genetic problems or poor results, so its well worth keeping in stock, id just love to know what its called now and who the breeder was as they really did produce something pretty amazing.
ill drop you a pm when i hear back about the butter machine, im really hoping their wont be a problem as it would make your life a bit easier as i know you make butter so it would be put to good use and im sure you would write a review about it, plus it will give you the chance to try other products like tinctures so theirs a lot you can do with it, if i didnt have the use of a bigger machine then id of paid the postage but after i won the motm i started telling an old friend that ill be making some butter and thats when he said he makes it from his mom as she has got cancer and can manage edibles, so when he said that i thought id gift my prize out to someone who didnt have one and who i know would use it.

My 250 is up and running, the mail finally ran, it seems to always run late when you're waiting on something. It's very bright compared to the 125 I have, which will now be going in the file cabinet box at my friend's place. I'm sure the plants will benefit from the dual spectrum, as well as the added wattage, and I have 1 32 watt 6500K cfl on the clone.

Just felt like playing with my camera, so here's the AK X, outside of the space.
This plant is growing like crazy, and should be showing sex any day, so I'll be really bummed if it's not a girl. The GDP X Purple Cheese is doing really well also, and seems to be liking it's new home. It will be transplanted soon, probably into a 1 gallon fabric pot, I actually have three different brands of them.

Looking very nice Danklover! I keep forgetting to get somewhere and get some of those clips. They look like they work out great for you.
I've got a Staples within 2 miles of me and can't seem to remember to get there. LOL

Update time, overdue actually, but since this is day 1 of 12/12, I thought I should post. All plants are doing very well and the AK X, as well as the Purple Paralysis were feed with 3 teaspoons of grow big, as well as 1 tablespoon of big bloom.
Here's the AK X UK Cherry Cheese X Skunk #1.
And here's the Purple Paralysis.
I hope you are all doing well and keeping it green, can't wait to have some buds soon, I love flower!

You tops look just like mine, and I'm 8 days in. I keep staring at them trying to distinguish if I am seeing hairs or just tiny green tentacles.

Yeah I do the same thing Sky, these plants should show sex very quickly since they are over 2 months old. If I use this space again, I will go with a single large plant, since two plants see to be tight in there, and I had to use 3 gallon pots where I could've used a 5 gallon for a single plant.

Is transplanting in the smart pots difficult? I'd think it would be as I can't imagine the root ball sliding out from the fibrous pot so easily.

I've never transplanted from a smart pot into another pot, and this is my first run with them, but I can imagine how that could be difficult. I don't think I'll use them again after I've used the ones I bought, they're kind of a pain in the ass tbh.

I bet they'd be good for outdoor grows. Easily movable and non reflective.

The Purple Paralysis is a confirmed female, it was a feminized seed, so no surprise, but it's still nice to see pistils.

Is that pistils jutting out of the right side of the pictured branch? I think I got me a lady too, but don't exactly know how to spot one except for the hairs coming out all of the tops.
