....
Hi Denise! Glad your circle of love made it over to my back yard!
Well it would be rud not to join the party
Glad your giving the autopot system a go, I've got one if I ever get around to having the time and space
I'm also well annoyed at ya! I'm the light addict and you've gone set the bar quite high with all that GOD power
Hi LA! Glad you made it here
... The Autopot system was too easy to set up. Seriously easy and quick. I put my res outside the tent so I can maintain it without disturbing the plants. I haven't turned it on yet because instructions say wait 10-14 days after transplanting and hand watering in the plants. I'll turn it on Wednesday and I'll make sure I take a couple pics.
Don't get too annoyed with me and the lights! The main reason I bought the BM 1200 GOD was because of your journals
Besides, you'll out-yield me with 1/2 the watts. Hell, you could out-yield me a roll of tin foil and a Flashlight
Subbed in doc, damn thats one sexy looking light and some amazing strains you have going, should be a good one
Hi Feral, welcome to my little BM grow. Glad to have you on board!
Your plants are looking great Doc! Looking forward to seeing how that venom OG pans out for you. Another interesting strain selection by the doctor.
Thanks Blaze, you and me both brother! I'm really interested in this strain now. I can't believe the chem smell coming from these tiny buds already. If it keeps this up, it will be my stinkiest grow to date. Next reg seed grow will be Mouse Trap from Dank Genetics. Talk about interesting
Hey there Doc - nice looking setup and nice buds there buddy!
I've been wondering what's the closest you want the plants to get to the lamps or in other words the canopy height to lamp distance with those GOD lights??
They are on my short list now that I'm seeing your ladies get it on. That's excellent growth there. I like the stretch ... leaves room for bigger buds! <no pun intended>
3 weeks with those autopots?? nice.
I got 2 1/2 weeks last summer with blue-mat and a HUGE res... It wasn't easy and was a lot of work. Wish you luck with that system and watching with huge interest.
keep it green
Hey there Bo! I'm going to end up about 24" inches from the top of the canopy to the light. I asked Icemud where the sweet spot is and he said (paraphrasing) between 24 and 36 inches. That was based on science and his PAR (and other) readings. We'll find out if it's too close because mine will be right in that range. They are still stretching in week 3 which is the longest stretch period I've had under the GOD 1200. It usually just stops them in their tracks, but this strain is proving to be quite the little stretcher. I'll be hoping for the Bigger Buds
The Autopots were super easy to set up. I know what you mean with the Blumats. I've never been able to get mine to work and I eventually threw them away. The autopot system is very different. The stupid Blumat carrots and drippers were such a pain to figure out. This system just fills the bottom of the tray and the plant soaks up what it needs. The only thing you need to do once set up is to keep the reservoir filled. It's a 12.5 gallon capacity. Once I figure out how long the 12.5 gallons lasts, I can make the reservoir out of anything and could even hook it up to a 40 gallon lol. We'll see how it shakes out. I've never used it before.
Thanks for checking in everyone. I just got back home from a 4 day trip to Pops house for Father's Day. It was Awesome! He didn't want us to leave. He kept disappearing into his room and then coming out with memorabilia and stories about the items. It was a real hoot!
