Spimps NLxBB Auto Micro CFL's 2013

Great info on the Doggett and Simpson, looking forward to using it myself. Just not sure if I should finish Gert on them or keep up with my Plagron range and use DS on my next run. I want to give it a try as its so simple to use by the sound of it. Just unsure as big Gert is in flower and I have to get a good harvest for xmas.

OK, This is not really a DIY but I snapped a few pics while building my Rig.
BOX 3.0 NEW AND IMPROVED WITH LESS GHETTO!!!!

I must now go transplant/repot all my plants. Heres what my mix looks like,Maybe alittle heavy on the vermiculite:

 

[Richard Richardson]

Looks cool

Did dependable dad cut the wood?

 

[Spimp]

Negative. Seems his 'help' was in Direct proportion to the amount of medication he took. As he weined from them, his "interest' wained dramically
He did hold a board while I made a couple cuts, then he got his stuff and went home with no further comment. Pretty sure he wouldnt mind talking to me about it, just not here

 

[Richard Richardson]

Maybe he went to buy you a HPS set-up? :wishful-thinking:

 

[Spimp]

Gotta run Rico, Many ladies need my touch. Be back later

Nice set up. Spimps going all "Uptown".

Ok heres the roots of Gitmo and Gizmo. These roots give me hope.

Gitmo is the perlite mix. It was a fiasco repotting her. Gizmo's roots are everywhere!

I did make a mistake in my haste. I have 2 newish maybe 4 gal pots I was gonna put those two in, but for some reason the Autos snuck into them. I didnt event have time to do the seedlings yet.

FIRST TAKE ON THE TENT----
Seems to be well constructed. Heavy duty material, dipped metal poles. No plastic and everything fit 'tight'.
Major Design Flaw IMO. The main zipper zips down to close. This means I cant unzip it halfway to expel heat like I tought. Damn. I have a small 5" fan propped up blowing up and out currentyl and kinda unzipped. I turned it on for 20 mins with full lights and it got warm probably 90f. So im running it today kinda open.

The reflector has a major unconsidered advantage. It shields 12 cfls from blasting you in the face when you first open the door to the room. The old fixture was wide open so the whole room was bright. Now it spills over barely.

All looks cool there spimp
Lots of rooooots
I agree does seem a design flaw that's a shame
I had to laugh at your dads dwindling enthusiasm lol
Good weed sir

Be right over Dankdragon.

So the tent is running pretty cool compared to my box already. Ive been out for 3 hours and everything still seems good to go.

 

[dankdragon26]

i will continue to follow the ghetto and the wardrobe especially, possibly a couple others, but i will be cutting back a little. mostly welcoming new members and patrolling for spam

Good Weed and Happy Tokesday.

I have made a Descion regarding my activities on 420.
I am breaking my "Sub Bubble" and will be spending more time helping noob's and reearching. My subscription total was over 400+ treads. Much of my time wasspent trying to 'catch up' instead of actually helping where I could. Most ofthe Threads I was subed to are much better growers than myself, so my limited experience was not too much help anyway.
I will be using the 'today posts' and browsing much more now than catching up for 2 hours before I can generate any content. I will still be checking in on Everyone as much as possible, And to be honest, many of you have been with me for a long time now. Im sure I will stay sub'd to several threads but the count will be closer to 10 than 400.

If I had the time and ability I would Sub to every grow Journal and thread because you guys Are the Bestest Imaginary Friends Ive Never Had. Without 420 and you guys, I woulda killed my seedlings (again) and never had the joy of harvesting my own Meds. Now I will spend more time helping others destined to fail, and hopefully get them through the first grow. We all know if the first fails, the chances of a second dimish drastically.

Also, I really want to get dialed into Soil. I need time to research the microbiological life that can organically provide for MJ. Im sure Ill still dabble in Hempy and other techniques, but I want to educate myself so I can help others. Hopefully all my friends here understand I am striving to be a better helper here and that makes this place better.
