Vetsmoke Goes Perpetual With Bonsai Mothers, Clones & DIY Builds

You will love that AC Infinity fan.....its the only ones I use in my set ups now. So quiet and the options for settings is top of the line. Anyone on the fence about a fan, go ahead and jump on that AC Infinity train, its an amazing fan! My only issue with it is that if I have a power surge or lose power, I have to go back down and manually set it back up to the setting and power level I want it running at. I wish it revert back to the prior setting.
Is that one of the big AC infinity fans? I've just got the little 120mm case cooling ones. One as my extraction for the veg cabinet and one for circulation in the tent. They are nice though. You'll see one hanging just below the light on the left side in my flower tent.
 
That’s what I do I have 6 inch duct hose hanging from the top vent drawing out the hot air into a can beside the tent .
then a fresh air fan opposite blowing in the bottom side vent . Zero smell. Until the zipper is open .
I’d rather buy a new filter every year than minimize my space ;)
If your filter has a flange on it, it means its reversible. You can flip it and use the filter for another 6 months to a year before needing replacing. It extends the life of the filters quite a bit by doing that. Just a tip if you are interested.
 
Yeah we have hard water where I am and the pH is pretty high. Since using that neutralise to get rid of the chlorine and chloramine along with properly pH'ing to 6.3-6.5 I haven't had those previous issues I encountered.
Nothing beats rain water if you can collect it. You will see a marked difference in your plants if you ever switch to rainwater collection (especially if you are able to collect after a lightning storm....the water is super charged). Its easy with smaller numbers of plants.

Yes I just need to get my arse in gear and clean out the water tank (someone chucked one of those compressed fibre logs in it), and get a new hose to connect it to the guttering.
 
I used to wake up take 5 prescription medications all designed to treat my PTSD, Anxiety,Depression and insomnia after the pills kicked in I would sit on the couch all day and not be interested in anything. Now I take no prescription pills and I wake up now make coffee step out on the back deck smoke a few hits breath in some morning air look at the trees and morning sun and I’m happy And ready to get moving! I realize not everyone can move away from all prescriptions and I am not advising that at all.
This This This!!!! :love: :love: :love: :love:

I don't really take anything meds wise. Doctors aren't the brightest folks in the world in my opinion. "here, take these Vitamin D pills, you are low on Vitamin D"

Doc, Couldn't I just spend a little more time out in the sun and drink an extra cup of milk instead? "Nope, take these"

Oh and guess what they just came out and said....vitamin D help defend against covid :hmmmm:. Wait didn't you other experts just tell me Im supposed to stay inside for protection. Gee stay inside, watch the news and listen to all the negatives and live in fear....or turn it off, take a hit and go outside and enjoy the sun and nature. (Granted, I live out in the country so I have nothing to worry about but even if I lived in a city I would get out of the city and go outside!) Nature heals, the sun heals.

Sorry I have watched these supposed smart "doctors" ruin too many people lives with this whole "here take this and we will see how it helps" No thanks. Weed is a much better option as are all the natural remedies.
 
Garden Update

First up the veg cabinet.

Critical Mass mother - 6 Weeks

She's doing fine. As you can see pretty root bound but they look pretty healthy right now. May need to root prune soon.

OG Kush mother - couple of days off 6 weeks

She's doing okay too but again root bound. She tends to take a little longer to dry out and her roots are a little yellow. Think a root prune would do her some good too.

The cuttings from these two seem to be doing okay. 4 days and no sign of roots yet. I'll wait until the 7 day mark and remove the domes for a bit and see I they flop or not. Critical on the right OG's on the left.

The two Gorilla Glue clones are growing again which is good. Dark green so I'll stick on plain water or light feed on the next one.

Now for what you've all been waiting for. The star of the show.

Gorilla Glue - 4 weeks 12/12

She's lovely and frosty. Smells a bit like cat piss right now. Still had a couple of fungus gnats knocking around so the last 2 feeds I've sprayed the soil with neem oil, watered that in and then sprayed the surface heavily again after. Caught a couple on sticky traps and one of the fans is blowing across the top of the pot. Fingers crossed it won't become a problem now.

Big update so I appreciate you taking the time to read. Got a few more pics of GG if there's requests but I hit the 10 pic limit. Ha ha. Happy growing!
Fantastic roots on a few of those pictures. I love growers that take the time to look at their roots. In veg, I focus more on growing roots than shoots. If you grow good strong roots, the shoots will reward you. Makes me want to go check some of my plants and see how their roots look!!
 
Man I feel you on this one. Not a seed collector but I clone every plant I love. Between that and a few seeds almost all my grows are now multi-strain collections. I just started three strains of Indica dominant seeds - Gelato, 8-Ball Kush and Aurora Indica and I have 6 more strains in the wings. These will go into my current clone collection of Sativa dominant hybrids - Jack Herrer and Durban Poison!
How did you like your 8 Ball Kush. I have a cut of mine going that I am going to make into a full hash run.
 
Is that one of the big AC infinity fans? I've just got the little 120mm case cooling ones. One as my extraction for the veg cabinet and one for circulation in the tent. They are nice though. You'll see one hanging just below the light on the left side in my flower tent.
I don't use the big ones....I just use the 6" AC Infinity fans and one 4" in a small 2'x4'. I run a couple 5'x5' and 4'x4' and I have them in all my flowering tents and in two of my veg tents. Only one tent isn't using the AC infinity fans and thats only cause I haven't bought another one for it yet.
 
I'll let you know in a few months brother. So far, they're doing great - at just a few weeks old at this point.
My only issue with the 8 ball Kush is it isn't as heavy hitting of an indica as I generally like for my night time use. I have an Afghani and a Northern Lights that hit like Mike Tyson. Two or three puffs of it and most smokers are KO'd

The 8 Ball has great flavor and is nice and relaxing, but it just doesn't send me dreamland.....so I use it a little earlier in the evening....like an 8-9pm smoke and then hit the heavy indica at bedtime. Cheers brother....hope yours turns out a winner!

Is that the “s series” you’ve got, Stank? I’ve got some “t series” of theirs and I’m pretty sure they save the settings

To be honest, I don't know. I'll have to look at my Amazon history and see what it was that I ordered.
 
Thinking of spraying that GG clone with colloidal silver when she goes into the flowering tent but have a few questions that maybe you guys can help answer.

1. I'm being lazy and can't be bothered to make my own CS so found some online that's 40ppm. Do you think that'll be okay? I've read 30ppm as a minimum.

2. I won't have a separate tent to do it in so it will be in with the other flowering plants. I'll take it out each morning and spray it then hopefully be able to stop it touching the other girls. If successful and close to dropping pollen I can probably move it into the drying tent under a little light to avoid pollinating the other girls. What are the chances of me accidentally pollinating the others? Is it a gradual process that if I'm checking daily should be able to pull it from the tent before it starts dropping pollen?

Really just trying to calculate if it'll be a small risk or if I'm fairly certain to mess it up and pollinate those other girls.
 
For anyone using a Mars Hydro light this contest may be of interest to you.
 
Well now I need to buy or build a variable transformer speed controller as that fan is way too loud and powerful on full blast and it hums like a bugger with the cheap controller. Sshhh don't tell the Mrs :rofl:

If you do end up getting some male flowers, I've found that it takes around 11 days after first seeing the balls, before the pollen is released, So I'd think you'd have plenty of time- especially if you keep a pretty close eye on your girls, which you do.
I'm just going by what my male plants have done- I've never used CS to reverse sex.

Cheers mate much appreciated. I guess it's worth a go. Suppose the worst that would happen is I end up with a load of OG & Critical X Gorilla Glue seeds. Can you smoke the stuff that's de-seeded or is it just trash?

You can smoke it. I smoke all the stuff I make seeds from. Worse case, turn it into oil or edibles brother.

Cheers buddy. I'll give it a shot then and see what happens. I've still got plenty of meds and the GG harvest should keep me going for ages too.

Don't smoke it if it's the plant you sprayed though that's trash
