in a 5x5, rotating scrog, in a 15, with a hula hoop screen! That’s the NextLight Mega Pro.
They’re words. And I understand bits contextually. But its like trying to read Spanish when you only speak French.

Sounds fun though!

😂

Take a 44” wide kids hula hoop. Use screws through the plastic every 1.5-2” all around. String it up and that’s the scrog screen. Now take a big pot base that’s metal on wheels and make a cross of 1x material that sits atop the base, extends out 44” all around, and will support a 15 gallon pot. Now at the four ends of the 1x material use whatever to make vertical support columns for the hula hoop screen. Attach screen. There you have it: 44” wide hula hoop scrog screen that rotates so folks like me in a chair can work a scrog.

Better?

Nick has access to those blue Thai pipings. He'll be fine! You could build a proper scrog net in ten minutes with those!
 
That’s brilliant Jon! Seriously cool - 5* MacGyver Rated. I might do that very thing I do that plant - usual place for the licensing fees? 😂

As Wastei said I’d use the blue PVC plumbing tube. I’m going to build out a frame with it for the giant SIP - Almost like fluxing it out in two directions.

Oh hell yeah! With the infrastructure he’s got lying around he could make just about any screen he wants!
 
22 Plants and 20 seats in the big room.

Still no builders. 2pm, meant to be here at 1pm. See you next Tuesday, guys.

🥲

Only grow I didn’t mess up today though. Fights with snakes, 220v electricity and throwing a tray of 1 day old seedlings on the floor. Yay.

This Hulkberry - a spare from the Solo grow - looks great. My fingers hurt though.

Still. No. Builders.

Veg and clone tent got a spruce up today though. Have a choice of 22 to fill 20 seats in 1 gallons. We also in a few days we’ll have clones of 12 Strains. Maybe more. Might see if I can sell some.

Time to live off past glories.

So much easier with a Lightbox. Cheap as. My camera is still crap. Might get it fixed. That nug is Strawberry Molly. Its lower bud, bit airy. B Grade I guess. Nothing wrong with it but I’m not allowed to smoke the nice stuff.

I can photograph them though 😂

I’m going to have a little lie down with a book. Today’s be action packed.

Nick
 
:rofl: No seriously, is that a second set of builders to jerk your chain, or still the ones who ripped you off?
The original good ones who have just gone really big time in the 6-8 months we’ve been using them. They’ll turn up over the weekend hopefully and charge bugger all I hope. They got a couple of big gigs through referrals from us.
 
Builders came. Builders left and left me back at the start.

To paraphrase Jay-Z.

Materiel is being sourced. They’re back st 9:30-10am tomorrow. Promising finishing all tomorrow. We will see.

Leaves me the rest of today to play fit the plants in. That’s 21 which we ran in a different configuration before (less room) but thinking about dropping it - even as low as 18 which we ran before. Its like that puzzle game where you push squares around. But bigger.

Tetris 🤣
 
Cunningly when the 10 children's play frames arrived I gave our daughter one of the ten sets. Her little not yet four year old fingers are now well practiced and she can set to work building out 20+ training frames for me.

Thanks L!

Builders. Are. There.

I’m not because I got kicked out the house.

Left a list of stuff. Said don't call until its all done. I might go and grab L from school and take her out somewhere while I wait. Although it would take about 10 minutes for us to annoy each other and retreat to candy and phones.

Repotting of plants is imminent. I fired up the 2190w of LEDs last night. Forgot how epic it is. Plus an Auto in a solo looked like its turned to flower so I can flip all 38 plants to flower tomorrow, like it ain’t no thing 😅

Is that a banana 🧐
:passitleft:
 
Nah never would have made it far. It was from the Solo SIP. Zero drama there and it was fairly easy to check her all over every day! Looks like a folded leaf maybe a bit of stem growth? They’re checked all through grow and then 4 sets of eyes during trim.

I have the very nug here - looks like bit of weirdly folded leaf. I removed it. Phew good job I didn’t enter it in the comp! Some of those guys would have me banned from Nug of the Month for that!

🤣

Finally. You gonna flower the auto with the photos at 12/12?
 
I’m off to buy a cold plasma machine.

Really interesting article about growing plants. Mostly focused on growing tomatoes in space.


Loads of ideas in there and loads of links for further reading - lots on roots popping seeds.

And remember - NO SIPS IN SPACE! I added that bit but its true
