Thanks. I could make a lot of jokes but....
I will get pictures in the morning light.
I gotta tell you I am laughing at my own jokes. Too bad they are all off the PC track.
I wasn't figuring on doubling up but if I need something in a pinch, we always have male syrup. It's a Newfun Family routine. Lol

I read that just when I posted it and chose to leave it because it only made it funnier. I don't know about you but this place needs some comedy too lol

Comedy is always welcome wherever I'm at. Most places need it these days. Everyone is always so uptight.

But not me.

How much for the lights...? I too am on a budget.

Welcome Ronbo, it depends on the size of your grow space.
Budget LED build's light's for every budget. Anything from 120 true Watt's from the wall to 500 true Watt's from the wall.
So how big is your grow space, I'm asking so I can show you a few options.
Mine are 2-Red Spec 250 Watt each Quantum Boards.
I'm using them in a 4'x4'x6.5" grow tent. They cost $299.99 each and free shipping with a 3 year warranty.

Good morning Ms. Candycane, welcome aboard, thank you for the most generous comment.

Please pull up a chair and join us for this most amazing ride while we all try out these vibrant quantum board light's.

I noticed that you're growing in Fox Farm Happy Frog soil, how do you like it?

 

[John Wick]

Good morning all, today is day 5 of flowering and even though I bent and twisted the girl's just to make them behave themselves they're back and rowdy again.
That's okay, I love their spirit and the beauty within them.
This morning the menu was almost a gallon each of 2-tbl/g of worm castings and bat poop, 1-tsp/g of Syrup and 6cc/g Cal-Mag
I know the same boring food, but the ladies didn't complain and rewarded me with some pretty pistils.

The Series 2 Red Spec 250 watt x 2 Quantum Board light's are turned up to 80 %.
Remember good people, when you get your light's and power them up for the first time, please give your ladies a chance to meet them slowly. Please start low and gradually turn them up. If you see this, it means you girl's still love you but they would like you to back the light's down a little and give them a little more time to get aquantied.

So the outside temp is 71* and the inside temp is 73* with the light's gradually turned up to 80%.

The RH (humidity) inside the tent is at 56. I'm running the dehumidifier at 55 outside the tent and as the bud's start to thicken down the road I will slowly lower the RH level accordingly.

I noticed that you're growing in Fox Farm Happy Frog soil, how do you like it?

I like it so far, I mix in extra pearlite for better aeration, I only have DWC to compare it to. I am about to start another grow and was wanting to try a mix of 50/50 Happy Frog and Roots Organics Soiless but still on the fence about that since I am use to just the Happy Frog and pearlite was just wanting to broaden my horizons and test out other mediums.
Looking forward to watching your ladies flourish!
