Roughneck 102 - Hempy Bucket - Lemon Kush - 2015

[roughneck 102]

Yeah it's just over 2ft 6" inside to inside and 4ft long...I wanted something sturdy and would last me a while...but I can tell u it was no easy task with only a hand saw a ratchet screw driver and a 3 year old lol

I go through the same thing. My son's with me all day, so when i work on anything, he's there. 10 minute jobs take an hour...

 

[roughneck 102]

Lol I know! And he thinks he's such a huge help and if it weren't for him there's no way the job could be done...and what's funnier is how he "coaches/guides" me through what I'm doing makes me laugh...anyway light should be here when I get off work tomorrow will be hung as soon as possible and will be finishing the net and stringing her up

 

[PeytonManning]

Awesome. Looking forward to the next picture update

 

[roughneck 102]

Still waiting on light but laced up the screen

 

[PeytonManning]

Looks good. How big of squares did you end up going with?

 

[roughneck 102]

Thank you my fingers hurt from pulling that shit so tight...I went with 3" squares seems like I remember u and the guys saying that's what y'all go with if not to late now!

 

[PeytonManning]

Yeah, i went with 3 inch also. I tried 2 inch before and it was a tight squeeze. I can't wait to fill mine in over the next 3 to 4 weeks. I know you gotta be feeling the same.

 

[roughneck 102]

Oh man u have no idea! So many things im looking forward to in the upcoming weeks...my light weaving and filling this screen up then the budding! Although I don't believe I'll be able to suspend mine like yours as I'd hoped I think it will be far to heavy with the light and massive carbon filter don't want to risk pulling the tent down

 

[PeytonManning]

I have my filter outside the tent, and both my lights hang from the bar. These tents are pretty strong

 

[roughneck 102]

This thing weighs at least fifty pounds these 2x4s have been soaking up water and mud for over a year they are super dense and heavy...I just don't want to strain the tent anymore than I have to...then again I don't want to build the Damn legs that means cutting more 2x4s sigh decisions

 

[PeytonManning]

Yeah, i see what you mean. I didn't know it weighed that much. Mine weighs about 6 pounds lol

 

[roughneck 102]

Idk it's strange it's the only thing I can think of y they are so heavy cuz the 2x4s on my drilling rig get the same way after being in mud time and time again but who knows all I know is they are heavy as shit

 

[PeytonManning]

I know most people use pvc. I used half pvc half wood. As long as it gets the job done it don't matter.

 

[roughneck 102]

I wanted to use pvc but didn't want to spend the money since I already had the wood agreed it's all the same...different strokes

 

[PeytonManning]

Yeah, i would have done a nice one in all pvc but i ain't got the money either. This one was made with what i found in my shed. Eventually I'll get something fancy made up for them, but it'll take time

 

[roughneck 102]

I think I might have stumbled upon a sorta growth booster by accident I could be wrong though but ne way here's what happened...last night about 30 min before lights out I decided to mess with the girls I topped both of them 4 times each and gave them their daily dose of food, then I plugged in my humidifier for the first time since I moved them into the tent cuz up until last night it has been staying within 50 %...well I didn't realize how big of a difference having a good tent was compared to growing in my tinfoil cabinet until I got off from work...so being use to growing in the cabinet I cranked her on about halfway like normal and when I got home a few hours ago they exploded! Both of them grew into the light small burns on some off the leaves no biggie but these girls turned into monsters over within the 12 hours I was at work...when I opened the tent it was super foggy and the humidity was at about 82%!..so I don't know if topping her and super high humidity caused it or what but it's something I will be investigating next go around...I will post pics tomorrow

 

[PeytonManning]

I figured they hit the res if they started to explode

 

[roughneck 102]

Damnit Peyton ur right...I was just way to high of this shit from cali my friend brought down I think he called it incredible bulk..that shit had me feeling like a mad scientist started hacking on the ladies cranked on the humidifier went to bed...next day after I got off work he left me a joint took a shower smoked opened the tent a boom cloud of mist then I saw the ladies and I was like holy shit! That shit got me stupid high and turned he into a master grower...then I came back to earth after I read ur post picked the ladies up and and saw the roots at the res

 

[PeytonManning]

Yeah, they get some ridiculously awesome growth when they hit. Now every time you grow, you'll know exactly when the roots hit every res, whether it be solo cup or 3 gallon bucket. But it's cool to see how much growth they get, especially if you're in your final pot.
