That's not a bad thought. I'm not sure how to prove/disprove (easily, anyway) what it is either. Obviously you can send it off to a lab for analysis, maybe through a state ag program or something, but that isn't exactly simple. No idea on a cost of something like that either.

Maybe if a university or even high school has an ag program, or biology department or interest, they may be willing to use it as a learning tool. (Yes, I know school's teach biology, but whether to the extent where they would be willing to culture and find out what something is would be the question.)

Think about this. Not just yeast, but all kinds of crap is in the air everywhere. You can take a thing of water, leave it sit out, and it will get algae and stuff going on.

Leave water in the dark, undisturbed, and it will get anaerobic pretty quick. (First hand knowledge on that one, lol)

I wonder what kind of magnification you would need. The pocket microscope I use for checking trichs is 20-40x maybe I could dab some on a slide? Should be easy enough to match to a generic picture of yeast or not.

What really puzzles me, and also makes me think it's just stuff in the water to begin with:

That was a fresh bottle of water with a dose of Dyna-Gro added in almost 5 weeks ago, it sits in the kitchen window. If my rez only did that I'd be ecstatic.

So I'm really starting to think the problem may just be in the water when it comes out of the ground. Adding in nutrients and warmer temps just lets it go crazy.

Yeah that Tut seems to be a winner everywhere I see it. Hopefully the new one is just as good.


I had a thought on the goopie Rez stuff the other day. There was a show on about brewing, they mentioned wild yeast and that it's everywhere. What are the chances our reservoirs have been getting a yeast infection? Yeast can be resilient af, maybe that's why it's so hard to get it fully cleaned up?

Im not sure, but it was something that crossed my mind. Dunno how to prove if it is or isn't. Or even what to do if it is.

A yeast infection? There has got to be a joke in there somewhere.

That's interesting stuff. When making bread yeast doesnt need light to grow when activated

I certainly worded it to suggest one haha these things seem about as stable as women.


That's kind of what turned me that direction, our rez's are basically a big fermenter. Mines a trash can with a small notch cut for the 1/2 in tubing, the lid is only off long enough to fill it and the room stays dark for like 22 hours a day. Plus the stuff just looks like the used yeast I've seen at the breweries when working on their glycol chillers.

My issue last season, which was catastrophic came about from a little bit of water tubing from my RO system, that wasn't covered, that started to grow. It was slightly green but it constantly fed into the res. recharging the nastiness.

It blows my mind what a simple, seemingly innocuous issue can turn into a real mess. Looking back, I've had my res. and pots open, with dead leaves rotting away in there more than once with no problems. Not a practice I try to promote, but it's happened with no problem. It makes me wonder where the point of no return is. Well, I guess last season was a reoccurring algae problem

Haha. Nice!

It would be interesting to be able to test various "funkiness" to see what's what. I think it would require a real microscope and knowledge of various pathogens to know what you're looking at, but it would be cool to be able to diagnose the issue.

We need one of these sciency types on here to take up the cause of the reservoir yeast infection. We spend billions fixing baldness and soft weiners. Where's my Rezagasil!? lmao

REZAGASILL!!! PRICELESS!!!

I'd like to make an adjustment to one of my slogans...

I think there should be a super hero for the 420 crowd. Call him Johnny Weed Seed. He doesnt do a whole lot. He just shows up at an accident and complains about wanting a Sprite at the gas station down the street. He once got popped smoking out behind a squad car, and flipped out because he thought it was his third strike. His super power lies in his magic bag of truth kief. It doesnt make anyone tell the truth but it makes mediocre bud great. He also has a truth pipe and truth bong, but they are even less impressive. He applied to an intern position with The Legion of Super Heros but he couldn't pass the drug test. He said "fuck it" and went to the Legion of Doom. He might have done well, but they didnt have comprehensive dental. He spends his days at the local AM-PM slinging Slurpees and trying to get the local kids to buy the last hot dog. We'll get Crispin Glover to play him on the big screen

Or how about Bong Mon. With his Jamaican accent he can put out fires with his seemingly endless spray. Unfortunately, once he has shot bong water everywhere any future habitation is impossible. He's cool with Johnny, but they are constantly arguing about which method of getting high is best. The real downside to Bong Mon is he's constantly losing his lighter

The car that could be cool, but just isnt. He's got a condom dispenser on the dash from 1992 and it's still full. It runs on RSO

Then theres Hasheshe... looks good in a sport coat OR a Summer dress. Has all kinds of super powers. Runs fast, kicks butt, bla bla bla. I can't say too much else for the risk of not being PC
 
I took a peak in the res and found roots. The line between the res and the plant is 2 inches in dia. Even with a return line in it theres plenty of room for wayward roots. But they can't stay I'm afraid. I pulled them back into the pot. This will keep happening, I will need to keep an eye on it

Dam crazy roots lol

Isnt that funny? They go everywhere. I had roots grow through a filter bag that held a return pump. Got a mind of their own
 
I know I said I was gonna fill my scrog... but I decided that wasn't such a good idea and I think I'll flip tomorrow. Gonna flower the dirt and hydro plants together so I dont have to worry about blocking the light pouring out of the closet from the absence of a roof. It will be interesting to see how the mothers do. They are such strange plants. Other than the bright purple stems they look better since the start of flush. The node spacing is really tight... they could be contenders. It just blows my mind that the hydro plant is a clone from the larger mother. They couldn't be more different

The hydro plant could do well, I hope. It has vigor and it just seems like it wants to do well. The scrog area is 4x3' this plant is just shy of 3' in dia. not a monster. I want all the branches to get under one last string on the scrog. They are very close and will definitely get there in the stretch, then have some time to get some vertical growth. I can't wait. I need some good bud. My stores are drying up.
