A Guide to Fishsticks

10x10 with 4x 630 watt quantum boards.

That is manageable. Rooms with 5-10,000 sqf have challenges to overcome. Its the main reason not many use LED in large rooms. I have seen a few. They did it to save $ of there operating costs. There getting great results but they said they took a yield hit when they swapped over. There doing more training keeping there canopy full. Everything below the canopy is removed. I'am seeing a few more start testing with LED. I see Gavita has a LED 645W light now.

10/4, currently researching the best method for doing this....curious how much one stores in each packet? I know it doesn’t take much pollen to fully seed a plant.

Are you also going to save pollen in the freezer too, since you'll be collecting it anyways?

Save as much as you can. If you are going to freeze it, I would put it in the fridge for a day first. It doesn't take much if you are hand pollenating, but probably a half teaspoon at least, if you are going to dust a tent full


A lower Bucksaw cola still on the plant. Its getting into the 40s at night now

These plants are Earthy Fuelly, not Hazy-sweet

Was just thinking about this and was wondering what others on here think is the best way to store pollen?
What are some of the tips and tricks you guys use?
Cheers Renne

mixed with un-cooked rice in a sealed container with a silica gel pack in the freezer...

alrighty....just got back from paying bills,going to the grow store,and of course another grocery store trip...and astoundingly i still have money left...


really saved my bacon selling the ice cream truck...wish i could have sent that money to dan,but they would have come to shut the power off tomorrow so it is what it is...at least i can afford 5 bucks to send some seeds to be auctioned if thats still going on...




down to 5 bikes now...that seems like a good number of bikes to own...and also cuts down on the spare wheel sets hanging around...might be time to round up all the excess spare parts and sell them off as well...

My daughter, who is starting to spend her spare money on bike bling, sent me this list of "The Rules" from Velominati. I'm sure Unc knows these well but I got a chuckle out of #12:

"...The correct number of bikes to own is N + 1, where N is the number of bikes currently owned. This equation may also be rewritten as S - 1, where S is the number of bikes owned that would result in separation from your partner"

Question on flushing/fading from the coco growers:

Do I just use plain RO water in the usual amount and let the nutes leach out gradually or do I do heavier flushes early on to get the nutes out more thoroughly and more quickly so the plant has to start drawing from the green matter more quickly?

 

[Hammerhead]

i wonder if it works with the controller...

The specs have them compatible with EL1 and EL2 controllers. These LEDs are $1,358.23.. They don't come with power cords. There is also a adapter I'm not sure what its for thats not included. Might be for daisy chaining

 

[unclefishstick]

looks pretty sweet,i have more faith in something from gavita than "california lighting concepts" or whatever stuff they sell at growers house...maybe a couple for summer time for the garage 4x8 build...a 12k window banger should be able to keep it cool enough,at that price and buying two they would only need to put out a pound to pay for themselves...

That's nice.
I'm waiting on the parts to build a 1200 watt light that uses 5 hlg elite light engines. I'm testing these for use in a commercial situation.

Hey Joe, I am looking for a led for a small veg cab. I have been looking at the hgl 65. What kind of headroom is best?

Personal preference. I just start with ro at the normal amount without extra runoff about two weeks before chop.

I cant believe you still got plants outdoors....
Thats AMAZING! I think its done now and you can harvest.
I so wish I could leave plants out past Oct 12th.... But in New England its just not possible.

 

[Dr. Purpur]

It was 36 degrees this am. Ill probably harvest the rest tomorrow

[unclefishstick]

mornin campers...


pretty chilly here this morning too,looks like we have our first hard frost coming this week,looks like its time for the gavitas,gonna need the heat in the room i think..


trimming to do here today,and probably into tomorrow,then off to the trim job for a couple of weeks...that should get me through until my rooms start producing again...this month and next month no fancy bike parts,but once january hits i should be back in the groove...

Well that global warming is melting my snow. Damn it
