Nick Hardy's Skunk Works #4 Mars Hydro FC Evo 12x OG Kush Solos 4x4 - Viva Voce Grow

[NickHardy]

I just, in a non fussy or concerned grower type way, a totally relaxed way, you understand, went and checked on them.

I fed them at lights on. Just fed them again two hours later. Either they were really really thirsty or they’re dying

 

[NickHardy]

Yeah @Jon don’t bother the turbo flip thing. Waste of time. Nothing to bother with. Ooph what an idiot I was

Terp King visited. 24 hours and he’d done all 20g I gave him free. He paid this time.Hehe. He reads the forum occasionally had no idea.

Didn’t know my screen name though

Hash!

@Roy Growin looks like slate to me?

Put it back in for a little bit and tried to neaten the overspill. Then accidentally ate some.

 

[NickHardy]

We can only hope, but I'd be surprised if we see this party trick in the 5x5 competition!

Happy New Year Shed!!

Colour you surprised

Its a rubbish idea and not worth experimenting with.

Ha.

I’ll take some photos later. Been swapping terp and grow stories with The Terp King who reckons he’s signing up for the site. He just gave me incredible history of the strains and real people behind them. “And then Steve you is a really big dude marched in to XYZ Farm and beat shit out them now they’re ABC Farm and all hippy love”

Whatever.

They are his stories to tell. But you’re a cannabis growing nerd it was like just awesome fun. We chatted about accepted Ph target numbers over the last 20 years as light tech changed in like 3 different grow styles. I told him I’d make sure Farmer woukdn’t kill him when he got home for rolling the teuck He was growing big time in Europe before and met my Farmer mate 10-12 years ago. Never been his Aussie farm before. Just said, I know not just every major strain but the people I’ve met them. Farmer is the OG Master Grower, he reads the plants and knows what they want.

He did wan’t me to try and make sure he’s OK when he gets home having crashed the truck in the bush but we agree on Farmer is like weird good with cannabis plants.

I’ve not worked with him and I’ve been experimenting as a newbie. He told me I would. My EC before. Told me. Small buds. But I got game too. Can't wait he comes hete in a few weeks, 53 plants on flower and 12+ in veg.

My Mr Myagi for growing.

Know from today we’re done good.

We’re doing good “you know he let & Co trim 10kg’s of our weed, he never trusts anyone like that, you’re just quicker at learning the growing bit than he expected”

“Skin&Eyes? Bro really? He got to you?” The Terp King says.

- Yeah bro! Learn to read the plants. All you need.

I’ll flip my competition plants with Jon the same, pretty sure.

Whatever! Better than Netflix, eh?

We agree on Farmer is like weird good with cannabis plants. Like I said before in another thread, he has sky high EQ with people. His PQ - Plant Q - yeah its so weird. IRL - oooh! You would not pick a fight with him! He looks like he can mash you up. Like a lot of best friends, TRNH 100% Hehe, my oldest mate Mr Death, he met Farmer. Mr D -, ha, Farmer can scare. But he's my mate. Explaining that was a thing!

I’ve not worked with him and I’ve been experimenting as a newbie. He told me I would. My EC before. Told me. Small buds. But I got game too. Can't wait he comes here in a few weeks, 53 plants in flower and 12+ in veg.

36 Hour Turbo Flip

So far so good. I mean assuming they don't go "Die Mode" tomorrow, I mean then I might reconsider the wisdom of this.

They've greened right up and you gotta appreciate I was being a bit pessimistic. I'll measure tomorrow but stretch on. They're bigger and deep green again. The Terp King said he did it one grow and it worked, but never seen the extreme neon I had. I run to lucky. My only worry is missing stretch which I want some here. Right now that's my only worry. Which given all the plants you see isn't a bad number of worries, there's a CBD Warlock I'm not super happy about but yeah, the endless river, forever and ever - playing now as I type,

I'm a really nice person, WYSIWG - but I take stuff serious, and this is as my Sparky climbs down from my roof having fixed my weather station (OK he was also fixing a tertiary water pump so I can shower better) this I take seriously, and I love.

It sounds like the theory has merit, accentuating the night hours trigger, but maybe 36-48 hours is too much? Maybe something less like maybe 24 hours? I would think the hormonal change, which is what you're after, would kick in after some abnormally longer dark period but maybe you went too long and that new growth was hungry for photons?

Happy medium somewhere in between? If the hormones shifted earlier and you didn't have to wait a couple of weeks to kick off flower, then indoor growers should be able to get an extra cycle or two in per year. That would be significant.

Its not even the harvest time for me - its electricity cost.

At this point I don't think I went too long. I think @ReservoirDog saying "hey its a bit more than that but less than that" Goldilocks spot basically - they've greened up to normal, they've put on an inch or whatever, I'm just worried I might have stunted stretch, like they just skip a bit, for this grow its not cool, but yeah in future its a handy tool to have?

I'm glad I did it. I get hermies or something in a few weeks then its because of this - not the environment.

Jon can't copy it any way - Autos, hehehe

 

[NickHardy]

New planters going in…

Plants I was busy today. They fell over thirsty. I mean they’ve survived and not gonna die. They seem to have put on height so stretch has started. See if they start presenting as in flower sooner. 10-12 days is normal for us. It would have to be 5 days or so for me to be “Yeah that works”

New light timer switches ordered by Sparky.

Love ‘em. There was another option but he said I think you choose these ones

Yup - the kind of industrial brutalist chic I like!

 

[InTheShed]

I like your options...0 or 2!

 

[NickHardy]

As the three connectors suggest and Absorber hopefully OK’s them!

1-0-2

Manual - Off - Auto

 

[g-one-three]

I'm interested to see this blackout flip work I'm preparing to flip my girls and would love to shave a week off lol.

 

[Absorber]

As the three connectors suggest and Absorber hopefully OK’s them!

1-0-2

Manual - Off - Auto

What's this for?
Is it for 18hr light, in position 1 and 0 is off and position 2 is 12hrs ?

 

[Greenvein]

What's this for

I think you need to start here. I think Nick's asleep meaning he doesn't accommodate your time zone sorry. Or hes been smoking with that dude again

Please be patient and he will get back to you.

I hope he doesn't try banish me like his wattage buddy

Ok I lm going sleep

Manual - Off - Auto (auto is the timer can be set to anything)

 

[NickHardy]

To replace these ones

 

[Absorber]

To replace these ones

Are those ones stuffed aren't they going to achieve the same thing

 

[NickHardy]

Are those ones stuffed aren't they going to achieve the same thing

Yeah they keep breaking. The rotary bit keeps detaching which ever model we buy locally.

Those look like they’d be able to control the cooling rods at Chernobyl…

Yes those ones are more industrial shouldn't have an issue with those ones

You had me at “accommodate”

I did not inhale! Well a little, you wouldn’t trust a butcher didn’t eat his own meat right?!

I'm interested to see this blackout flip work I'm preparing to flip my girls and would love to shave a week off lol.

I think it has merit. All about saving electricity for me. We’ll see in the next few days!

 

[NickHardy]

No signs of flower but some stretch for sure.

100g a plant. That’s all I’m after. I’m not greedy.

I mean sure there’s 12 plants…
