They are probably using a high pressure system, which is more for commercial growing. That is crazy, one lb. per plant? I gotta see that!

No kidding man, I'm going to submit plans for one of their grow warehouses soon, I'm hoping I can take a tour of one of their "facilities" real soon.

I went ahead and harvested the Church clone I had going in the aero/NFT setup. It had 20 percent amber trich's on the top buds and around 10 percent toward the bottom. Not too bad for one small clone.
This is the only way I could get a decent pic.
Here's the Roadrunner after 7 days of 12/12(now 18/6).
I think the 600 was a little too low at 12 inches, for this plant. Since it is a autoflower, it really isn't "fully" developed. The top new growth started to get droopy and a little yellow, so I moved the light back up a little. The reservior temp also went to 75 degrees, which is a little high. It's been at 350 PPM and around 5.9 PH, so I don't think that is what caused the droopiness. I'll see if she perks up tommorow.

I transplanted my wonder women, into there own 5 gallon buckets and they responded with a nice growth spurt. I am going to move them to the flower room, after the next res change. So far, 4 out of 15 Power Kush clones have roots showing, after 5 days in the cloner. I see some root bumps, on several others as well.
Here is the Roadrunner after 10 days of 18/6 under the HPS. The flowers are starting to form nicely.
This picture shows the reflector I rigged up to slide on the 5 gallon bucket. It helps keeps the HPS from heat soaking the reservior and dropped my temps by 5-6 degrees. The roadrunner is 26 inches after 37 days from seed.
Here is the new bubble whirlpool air pump. Lots of bubbles for my 5 gallon buckets!!
Veg!!!

Thanks Roseman! The A/C at my house went on the fritz and the temp rose to 80. I didn't check on my drying buds one day and they had gotten crispy from the heat. Luckily, I had saved a couple pieces of stem in the freezer, per your recomendation. I placed it in the mason jar for a couple hours and they came right back to life!

The Power kush clones are destined for the stinkbud system! I plan to let them root and veg them for a couple weeks in the cloner and then transfer to the flower system. I also have the parts to build the stinkbud aero veg unit, as well, so I might get that under way. That way I can clone the clones when they are in the veg system and keep the cycle going.

Ah good plan, and keep those roots from getting too tied up in that cloner.
Ive been reading about that system every since I started reading your thread and i'm just about sold on making it once i move into my new apartment in may. Not going all out with a huge 3 system perpetual grow but similar to what your doing. I'll be legal for 12 plants in any stage so it prob a good system for it!

Here are a few more shots of the Roadrunner. It is up to 27.5 inches at 37 days old, 14 in flower. I just gave her a fresh res change and slightly upped the nutes to 375 ppm.

I checked the cloner today and ten of fifteen have popped roots now. They hit that magic one week mark and just started popping like popcorn! I soaked two Killing Fields Fem'd seeds and they popped as well, so I transfered to rapid rooters and placed into a propagation tray. I can't wait to get those going!!
nutes are only at 375? wow. I would have that plant a 1000 atleast. Its mature, it can handle it. slowly increase a 100 a day

I had been doing that and it started to show signs of burn on the tips!! I know that is ridiculously low and Doctor Who has his Roadrunner at 1200 ppm! Needless to say I was a little shocked to see tip burn at around 500 ppm. I am going to bump it up again today.

Does your meter have a x10 like mine reads 100 x10. The x10 is tiny and off to the side. Sorry if it sounds stupid just that amazed that it's runnin good at 300.

Yes it has a x10, but it is definitely 375 ppm. I bumped it back up to 500 ppm, see how she likes it!
Yeah I like the Stink system, I can't wait to get these clones in it! There are so many Kush strain's too choose from now, I heard Greenhouse's King's Kush is good stuff. I got the Power Kush as a freebie and it got really bushy after topping it once. I can hardly tell I took fifteen clones off of it!!

Have you ever had the electricity go out on you ?
If so or if you just know ,
How would you deal with a power failure ?
Thanks
