Flower room today. Pretty cool. When the air pressure tanks we had a mini squall rain storm.

Yeah they are pretty good numbers.

This grow where that sensor will come to I’m just gonna do what looks right. Maybe check the numbers after.

Skin and eyes.

OK the “maybe” is an obvious lie 🤣

1000w true.

Its going in a 5x5. They're more a B2B manufacturer. Like - a really big one.

There’s lots to love - “top bin Samsung LM301h” uh I wrote that - now its on your website! 🤣

The colours are my cup of char but also I was born in 1978 which is fun and stuff!

Met the whole team from the company a couple of times and seeing them again at the Hemp Expo in Bangkok next month.

It wasn’t free! They gave me true wholesale price - as if I’d ordered twenty plus. Still just north of a monkey in USD.

One thing strikes me - they don’t space the diodes out to the edge for spread like Mars do , its a more high volume commercial design - why would you spread the light out when you have other lights all around for a 50 light grow. But with the gas and a 5x5 - my light broheme @Jon - yeah bro. I’m super excited.

UV I’m a bit dubious of but yeah lets see.

i think @Wastei has a 1988? Or an older one?

Really solid build and Mars Hydro aint too shabby either!

Don’t be dubious about UV my man. You’ll see how it works and what it does. But you really do have to be careful with how much and how often you run it. Get this seed shit figured out so we can see this puppy go! Also nice toy. So much data. God, it makes my head spin.

@Absorber Umm! The most Thai electrical thing ever 😂

I mean yeah I can figure it out but why do we need 6 different colours? 😂

Crazy isn't it welcome to my world 🤣 it gets worse 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
Right-o

Seeds all ordered.

My apologies to @Mars Hydro - a very sheepish delivery guy arrived today with a slightly battered box containing one 6" inline fan. He took a photo of a box of 110mm test tubes outside the door with one of the kids (we put the pre rolls in them)

Also - unreal I found every strain I wanted so they'll be here maybe Friday latest.

All @Barney's Farm one of the sponsors round these parts. If you absolutely positively want a plant to grow big and reliably I love 'em

Shall we have some strain linkage? Well yeah Nick please you all say! OK

But first - the velvet glove (tungsten inside) of Teddy sent me a very nice DM earlier. You know where the light is from, they don't really sell it easily for home growers and I paid for it. It'll be in pictures in the background but I ain't a shill - which Teddy knows too.

Anyhoo - strain porn, anyone?

You gotta remember these are 110 ounce solos not your normal 16oz ones 😂

I like the red and white but your average 1 gallon plastic pots from the garden centre will do just fine. They come with holes in the bottom already.

But sorry to invoke their name again - @Azimuth and I both feel SIPs or not adding airflow down the sides is a good thing. (True Azi?) This is an old 16oz solo cup grow. They max to the edges and she yielded 27g at 8” tall.

Mangled my imperial and metric there!

Ok cheers bud I'll just stick with the bottom drainage.
I need to keep 20 clones alive but stunted and small for a couple of months but this will be in 12oz cups.

You sure 12oz? Standard beer keg solo cup is 16oz - 'bout 400ml

We be SWICK’s solo cup in solo cup for seedling/clones fhe clear plastic in er has air holes on the sides and drainage in the bottom on the coloured ones to prevent light ingress..

So easy.blast them with a 100ml syringe every day or so and get sweet sweet hydro roots.
 
Yep certain. I didn't even think about sizes just ordered solos off the zon and they was actually bigger then the ones I'd been using before 🤣🤦‍♂️ 11cm tall.
I'm not sure I'll be making any swicks as I want the slowest growth, I suppose that'd more controlled by light. Also you get nutters over the net telling you to cut them open!
