DV8's Deviance

I don’t think it’s coldness.

Their green looks okay, but that droop, it’s either drunk or drought.

My advice not that you asked lol. If the pots are heavy wait 4 days, if the pots are light waterboard them with 4L. That’s what I’d be doing.

Ive approached it from both angles.

Stuck some heating in there for overnight and given every girl a full watering, and Ill top up again mid morning to avoid any dry voids.

Its tricky with that long deep one under the Wedding Cake to be fully sure shes saturated right through.

The other 2 are easy, very liftable and I have a real feel for light or heavy in those sizes.

Thanks Tra, get back to better plants if I spend some time on the tents this weekend

Flower girls today.

Did a proper supercrop last night.

Girls heard you @Trala

Spent some time thinking about watering in flower cycles and vpd, and Ill try and find some time for adjustments.

Added additional draw on both tents today, splitting the diameters of the (2) inlets to what I hope is appropriate sizing and running single extraction fan.

Should shift the vpd values to a more suitable range. Know more in a few days when results can be tracked.

Its all a learning experience.

They look great

Feels like a lot and nothing going on at the same time. Like its more than Ive ever taken on, 5 flowering, 4 vegging, 8 clones, and a big walk of bud about to be jarred, but everything feels like snails pace.

Flower girls

Clones

Veggers

Shipping 2 girls out in morning, newest flip girls. They will be better served in a foster home.

Take for granted my relative freedom to have a space to do as I please with no interference, my grow buddy had some complications leaving me holding on to extra girls I didnt need as the compromise.

Work around got figured out tonight. Girls will be happier for it.

Plugs? Pucks? Green & yellow? Blank spaces?

Im not sure what the question is. I just filled up the whole tray because holy shit the spray was like a toddler pissing on the carpet.

Actually I was going to use another adult analogy......but not everyone would get it.

Any way is was squirting every where, out the open holes, from the moment I turned it on, and everything was getting too wet. Theres good wet, and bad wet. Roots, good wet. On the floor, bad wet.

So I quickly filled the holes up, then turned it on again.
Worked spot on.

I find a pot and dirt produces the same result ie a live clone.

Your hydro guy must love you!

Hydro guy: He’s just pulled in, get that rainbow puck tray. Bets you $5 I can get this cunt to buy it…

Bit humid in flower room, all got fed last night, kinda shit the two extras stayed, for now any way.

Bit of a funny, to me anyway.

Boxed the 2 up, no easy task, and headed over in pre dawn dark. There was an unknown car in drive so I drove around, went to car wash, got a coffee, returned....car still there. Drove out the road waited for a bit, no reply to messages, so drove home again, unloaded.

Fucking touring with two girls on board, paranoid as shit, just a scenic drive. On way home the cops are following me for a short distance through roadworks. Thought it was gonna go down haha.

All to attempt it again another day!

Put some rooting additive and topped up cloner.

Think I gave the seedling girls a bit of an over water too, they arent looking their best, tips turned down and some sad body language.
Hopefully come good in a couple of days.

The Wedding Cake and Purple Punch are loving life. Be nice to have the room to spread them into a vase shape.

Runtz girl is still trying to be happy. Think this strain needs more specialised attention than I can give her.

The other two are just annoying me hanging around. Its mostly my fault for dedicating other projects to the 2 veg tents.

In better news though, another grow project is coming along beautifully

Righto so my dehumidifier really did start making noises that concerned my about lighting a fire in my tent so its gone to tool heaven.

@Trala is absolutely correct, salesman can spot me a mile off with my unsure look, and tradie wallet.

They definitely thought I was going in to buy a fridge, as I pointed out to them, that was last purchase lolling.

Anyhow plugged her in and pulled 2 litres out this morning. No wonder the little one died!

Remember Home Improvement? I got that size.

Bonus round, it pushes out warm air, and at 330W on low setting it bloody well should. Its overkill, 2 rounds of budrot will do that to a man.

Sneaks it head in cpl shots below.

I really need a bigger tent. Im negotiating, and investigating. If I upsized and fucked off what I dont use it would probably work out better control and more space for same inputs. Go hard, or go home.

Heres the girls.

Finally got around to sorting a few things out.

Built a (dodgy) shelf to shift the cloner into the clone veggers tent.

2 reasons. Control RH, and increase the overall temp. Bit easier if they are all together.

Then after my poor shelf attempt went to hardware. After seeing shelf prices I felt a lot better about my shelf and figured she'll be apples.

I did however get a bit of mesh. I run negative pressure in my flower tent. Buds Bunny actually inspired me to get it, he used it for electric mounting too, which is brilliant in my mind.

I ran out of time to complete but managed to get most of it off the roof line and to the walls. Will definitely help with wall integrity.

With a free tent I moved the White Widow (omg we can say Seedsman again) in there, leaving 4 in the flower tent and her on her own.

In doing that I could open up the Purple Punch a bit. I really love that girl.

I think the Wedding Cake might have her covered, bigger pot and all, this PP girl though, shes a little weird, but also pretty easy going. Like me.

See what I can figure out to do the same for the WC, if they get opened up they will both be strong producers. Structure, nodes and overall development is solid, just need the space and attention to shine.
