I went 2 weeks without anything growing, I hated it . Think what you’ll be growing in that room Bill that’s gotta make you smile

It does thanks.
It was a bit of a shock.
I went from a full greenhouse to nothing over night.
Miss it.
Good morning Old g

It's odd for 5/6 years I had a harvest every month.
Then boom nothing, yeiks.
After the fire.
Then the greenhouse was flying and all of a sudden, rot.
I chopped it all in a couple days.
Then boom suddenly nothing again.
It's an odd feeling, like I'm lost.
Fortunately I'm busy AF. Which helps.
But there is nothing more satisfying to me than my garden.
Oh don't tell Stacey.
You know what I mean.

Going to paste that grout today and the rooms will be usable.
All I need is a couple plugs to get started.
Canada Post has threatened to deliver my @Herbies Seeds Friday.
I'll have to unbox all this cool equipment, thanks @VIVOSUN .
That may take longer than the tiles did.
Hope your having a great day.

I was just reading about sips and thought about the @Bill284 method. I never asked you about how often I would need to water/feed? CL

You running soil right.
You will still need to read the plant, especially at first.
Regular watering for a solo.
I used a marinating needle to water the outside of the solos.
You will water more frequently for sure.
Especially as you develop the huge root ball.
But make sure you follow the potting pictorials.
Moat around the outside, hump in the middle.
Water the top a little.
Then fill the Moat, let it drain.
Do it again, till you get run off.
Filling the Moat is like a plunger for fresh air.
Pumps out the old air.
Sucks in fresh air.
Keep the roots aerated and healthy.
I can walk you through it when your ready.

Gold standard advice I just read “still need to read the plant” and knew it was good. Its best advice ever. All the sensors and metrics won’t help you unless you can read the plant.

I killed 20 Girl Scout Cookies. Well 5 didn’t pop and Nicksie killed one which is my fault for not knowing she has a ‘predalicktion’ for licking plants in SIPS, not her fault!) so 15 for sure on me. Plus some other autos. 23 inc the non popping ones. In 4 months.

“Read the plant. Read the plant. Read the plant.”

I’m not in anyway claiming to be an expert at reading the plant - but I am certain its the best route to success.

That is a disconnect hooked to a new 60 amp panel feeding the 2 grow rooms and work area.
It's got 8 - 15 amp breakers.
I'm using 14 - 2 BX to all outlets completely surface mounted so I can adjust anything I need and add plugs & switches anywhere.
I can run the greenhouse off it if I want aswell.
It's fed by # 8 Tek cable I tied into the 200 amp panel in the house today.
That is the light I have for outside. Above the door.
I just threw it up for light, till I decide what I'm putting in there.
If you need guidance building a room I'm willing to help anyway I can.
Hope your having a good evening Amigo.
Take care.
