Nicely set up drip system and lush green foliage! Good idea to split the gang up a bit or they'll be at each other's throats before long.

Yes Val there looking good touch wood another easy grow on the cards with your lights.
Ye mate i think this time around im just going to use the frame to support what needs it.
Pull the ladies apart etc not put squares in. Running the drip system from outside the tent.
So i can run both spaces out the same bucket will show some pics.
Gives me alittle more floor space in the tent.
Now i got everything out the way in my other space i can start to set things up this week.
Pics will follow. thanks for popping in mate

Right put a net in with the runtz its a real leggy sativa those tops will need the support i feel.
Also the maui has been opened up to let the middle get some light.
Removed all fan leaves from the star dawg and the lambs bread from the middle.
To let the light into the tops will open them up when they make it passed my support frame.

Well the ladies contiune to show great growth everyday under the KS2500's ( fantastic lights )
The lambs bread it now catching up with the muai.
The star dawg is the little one close to the door.
Both lights are at 75% now , some signs of stress but im going full on this grow so will see how it goes.
See what we can pull of these ladies the lights are hung around 30 inch.
The drip system is kinda dialed in now.
The larger space gets a 2min feed 3 times a day
The small space gets a 1min feed 3 times a day (due to having a spike also)
If i dont get run of or the ladies dry out still i up the feed times or adjust the flow rate.
Never tested but at a guess i would say under one L per feed right now.
The aim is to get a little run of when i see alittle water in my run of tray i know im in the zone.
Also in my 2nd smaller space i have the XS2000 (75%) two psu's was to much for me to manage heat wise.
So i took out the XS 1500 PRO out a while ago.The runtz now has this light to herself.
Making use of the PRO over my clones at 25%
If you need any new beans and they have what you want trust in @Weed Seeds Express
As you can see again healthy happy ladies.And you really cant go wrong if you pair those beans
with a @ViparSpectra light results matter to me 3 months of my time and electric and my nutrients.
I need the end result to be what i expected and these guys dont ever let me down.
With the discounts we get here at 420 or freebees there really worth a look if your in need.
My favs as im old school and need a heavy/strong smoke
The ghost train haze (Great smoke very strong expect a long flower)
Acapulco gold (another strong smoke one of the best i have grown from them grown twice now)
Skywalker OG (What can i say its at top with the AP gold strength wise but such a fast flower )
Bruce banner (Strong smoke again grown twice and totally different genetics one big bud one tight nugs )
Gelato (Is another one of there stronger strains i tested very sweet loved the taste)
Post some pics at lights on happy growing all

Hey Skunksta,
Noice, forgot you were running coco but the drip system is way cool…!!! So I was wondering how you deal with runoff but you’ve got drip trays & grates to keep ‘em up and with just slight runoff each feeding.
Question so when girls are in flower and you feed more often do you run shop vac or just dump the trays?
I first started with coco but didn’t know how to feed or what to feed, adjusting ph or any of that. Yup I killed ‘em all but luckily I found some help here on the interwebs!
Whoa, you’ve got some excellent roots and sounds like you are doing it on the cheap too, just nutes & cal mag. You defs do justice on the WSE beans and the vipar lights, you are killing it up in here!!!
alright peace out!

I can pull the drip trays out pretty easy from the bottom to empty they slide out but do have a vac they hold about 1L.
But its a guessing game im pretty good at now.
Start of flower they get a good water to run of hand feeding then the drip system goes in.
I feed three times aday stating at lights on 10pm then every 8 hours.
They drink more when the lights are out.
When lights come on if the pots are dry i know i need to feed more and will top feed moist again.
And will feed for an extra 1 min and so on over a few days i will hit the sweet spot and get a little run of.
At that point i just use the adjustable head to control the flow rate when one lady starts wanting more
Or even less because im getting to much run of.1 min will feed on this system about 650ml turn of
one of the orange heads and it wont drop by a third but your looking at about 510ml per 1min.
I have never know any lady in the 16l fab pot i use want over 3l a day in heavy flower.
Also as im cheap i aim for as little run of as possible if im honest why waste nutes.
I know in coco you aim for much more but im drip feeding and there is not much chance of any build up of anything.
I have found no real need for so much run of when your drip feeding the coco its always wet and with fab pots
There is not as much need to get air to the roots seems to be working for me.
Hope that helps some
Thanks Skunksta, yes that helps a lot. Kinda figured coco would waste a lot of nutes too but sounds like you are getting just enough runoff to prevent salt buildup yet still getting the added growth boost of fresh nutes 3X per day.
I could never use an automated water system cuz with my luck I’d flood the entire house. The only green I’d have would be from mold growing everywhere. I built some drip rings but it was all manually triggered when I plugged in the pump.
I’m pretty low tech but it’s killer to see peeps like you doing there on thing to automate and to cut costs at same time. My hat is off, you are running that grow space like you stole it, keep up the great work!!!!

I made it idiot proof why im managing it friend.
I have had an issue as i have home plugs wifi.
They work with alexa and my grand daugther was playing with alexa.
I called the plug feed1 and yes u can guess by mistake she turned it on.
And emptied a 40L bucket into 3 ladies flooded the tent.
There named something strange now to stop any issue.
There pretty safe home plugs power cut they remember the settings well mine do.
And i like being able to set 1/2/3 min feeds a few times a day and its simple to set.
unlike timer plugs , some even come with energy monitors which is handy.
Also being able to feed when the lights are out i feel is a big advantage.
I did look into raspberry pi arduino but coding is over my head setting it up would of been ok.
TP link my power strip and plugs.That’s the plugs the strip is in the tent.
Also thanks mate but I have just fine tuned what I have done for years. Put me in soil now I would be lost.
Happy growing
Ahh that slurps on 40 liters, whew that will make ya pucker a bit!
Never heard of TP Link but dang thats exactly what I need! I unplugged my dehum because I was gone all day and I’m prolly risking PM since the humidity is spiking here.
So you can turn it on and off remotely?
I’m a techie from way back, not a programmer but wrote a little html. Anywho I like tech I just don’t trust it… but guess it’s either use technology or burn the joint down… heck maybe it’s both!
I will do a little research but strongly suspect that puppy will be in my cart faster than you can say hyper text markup language 3 times!
many thanks!!
