You know I am subscribed lol. I am super jazzed to see another go at that elusive 10 P mark. I know if not this time that you will hit it soon. Is that the new mini-split? If so how was the do it yourself install?
Thanks again for the link
Reps bro, super nice install or reload, whatever you want to call it sorry lol.

Welcome Sling, glad your here bro The diy was super easy other than once the lineset was uncoiled I was holding the indoor unit in my bedroom and my 2 buddies were feeding though the holes in the wall and then out a vent.its a 25 foot lineset. I only did one 90 degree bend right behind the indoor unit to get it pointing in the right direction, everything else is just gentle curves.It says in the owners manual to not rebend it more than twice so I tried to keep the actual bends to a minimum since im moving it in a couple grows

re: Jon705's Multi Strain HPS LED Hybrid System

hey mate.

looking nice as usual.

what do u think of bpn? as a full line up compared to other nutes? Ive done 2 grows with it. 1 with 2 part and 1 with high yield pack. IMO def quality nutes...but although relatively cheap, it doesn't last long compared to other nutes. so I get through maybe a gallon wen compared to half gallon of other nutes. and for me cost of shipping added to that means its no good unless I order huge quantities which isn't possible for bpn just now. I def not putting bpn down, its def a quality product, but do u think AN/Canna are better? or what are ur thoughts? if I could get more bulk orders, say a container on a ship i'd buy shit loads to get price down but think there are some better additives around. that's just my opinion and it comes down to growers talent how a crop turns out at the end of day but nutes are important. my average nute res is 500-700litres so I have a lot to consider as my nute bills are high. I bulk buy cos as u know I run multiple grows, just curious on ur thoughts. Need to get a better deal on my nutes cos its costing me $000's a month.

Ive never used canna or an's main lines only theyre additives so I cant really say but for me it blows Gh 3 part right out of the water!I just put an order in for 3 high yield systems and Corey gave me a great deal, they just reworked theyre contract with fedex so theyre prices are pretty good.even with shipping from louisianna to northern ontario I pay less now than I did with the GH and an additives bought locally but you are right it doesnt last as long so if I had to guess I would say for me its comparable.I guess shipping to you would be more and your local hydro shops are probably alot cheaper than mine but for me its BPN all the way bro, I love the stuff!
Did you notice a difference in flavor? I only flushed for 8 days with no flushing agents and it was the cleanest smoke ive grown to date, for some reason its alot easier to flush out.

re: Jon705's Multi Strain HPS LED Hybrid System

Hey welcome to my third journal.I was talking to the guy that designed my led's a few weeks back and he told me that he got his best results running the room cooler than most led guidlines suggest. He ran his room at 78 degrees daytime 70 degrees nightime. He also told me his best results were with minimal defoliation, He suggested putting less plants in the room and to spread them out more to help get the light to the lower nodes and to just remove the large fans covering the lower sites.So since this is probably my last round with this cut of Purple Kush and I know what to expect from it ive decide to follow his method this round and see for myself which tecnique works the best with these lights. Those temps are pretty much perfect for hps growing so I hope hes right.
So this round there will only be 15 plants in the system and maybe a couple of Black Domina's in the waterfarms(I dont want to wait until October to find out if its any good).

Flower Room Dimensions 18 x12.
System- 15 bucket top drip recirculating system with a 1/2 hp Eco plus Chiller.
Climate control-24 000 btu Freidrich mini split with heat pump- 70 litre dehumidifier.
The room is sealed with a tank style co2 system.
50 gallon res that will be kept at a constant 62 degrees.
1000 gpd Hydrologic Reverse Osmosis system.(still in the mail)
4 x 600w led's and 2 1000w vented hps.
Nutrients-Blue Planet Nutrients High Yield System with Dutch Masters Zone to keep things nice and sterile.Tecnaflora cal/mag on standby if needed.
3 x 16 inch oscilating fans for airflow with a 4 inch vortex inline fan on the floor to keep the co2 moving.
6 inch vortex fan and carbon filter for the scrubber. I took it off the ceiling and put it upright on the floor to help keep the co2 off the floor.

I think that covers just about everything. I transplanted the girls into they're new homes last night, they vegged for close to a month in the 4 x 4 flood and drain table in the veg room.They have only been topped once so far and will probably get topped one more time for 8 to 12 main colas( this will make it easier to spread them out for light penetration.Im aiming for 10 to 12 oz per plant or 10+ pds.
Full view

The 2 Jack's

Blue OG.This clone was taken from a plant 4 weeks into flower so she looks a little funny but shes starting to get 5 fingered leaves now.

and a few of the Purple Kush

Nutes

Mini split a/c

CO2 900 to 1100 ppm's

Scrubber

1/2 hp ecoplus chiller.I installed it on the otherside of the res room wall in the storage room where its nice and cool.

All comments, questions and pics are welcome here, so pull up a chair and enjoy the show, hopefully this will be my best round yet and I hit that ellusive 10 pd mark

Beautiful setup Jon, love the tomato cages, was gonna do that for my outdoor girls but, something still got in and destroyed four of my plants. Can't wait for a few weeks down the road to see how these girls are doing. Also using the Blue Planet nutes on my grow have the three part and the new two part I am using the new part for my ouotdoor grow. I don't have the indoor set for the heat hear in Northern California or I would be running both miss the indoor grow, Peace Bro will be keeping and eye on this one, and killler NOTM entry bro couldn't even vote for myself lol. OG.

re: Jon705's Multi Strain HPS LED Hybrid System

Welcome OG, I love the cages bro they are pretty much exactly the same height as the plants were last round so I think they will be perfect and training will be a breeze with them

Welcome brotha! same here bro hopefully they are worth the money

re: Jon705's Multi Strain HPS LED Hybrid System

subscribed. you have built a great grow room, is your C02 meter just monitoring your grow room or do you have a separate controller as well?

 

[jon705]

re: Jon705's Multi Strain HPS LED Hybrid System

Thanks KingJohnC, I dont have a controller yet bro, I dont really need it, I use the monitor to dial in the tank with a simple mecanical timer and I can keep it betweem 900 and 1200 ppm's that way. I ll be picking one up when I switch to a co2 burner though

I'm in on time for once. Very nice room. True Hydro Pro! Lets compare CO2 on this one. We are close in growth stages.
Nice!

Yeah jon!
wicked start bro!

Of course I'm in for this one.
killer upgrades.
Love to see you going with the tomato cages. You're really going to love how easy training is with them.

Thanks for the invitation jon, everything is lovely! The combo of hps and led is exciting to see............it seems to me that the combos are very attractive options.....I gotta get over and look at your entry! +reps!

Welcome Bud Grant, I hope so bro

Nice!

Welcome Mr Messy, so your running hydro with no co2? Im going to have to stop by and check out your journal, this could be a very cool comparison. I dont think I can get conditions any better in there if I tried, the solution is highly oxygenated because my system runs wide open 24/7 with no flow restrictors and big pumps, theres 2 8 inch air stones and the chiller is circulating the res as well, from what ive been reading 62 degrees is when water holds the most oxygen so I have high hopes this round

Amazing as always i hate you.. haha nah bro i love you +reps!

Hey Bushy, glad you could make it bro
