I love the tiny moms combined with the Blumats in such small pots. Really cool.
Are those the normal sized Blumats or the Bonsai version?

Chevy's blumatized organic soil LED mini grow
- Thread starter Chevy cHaze

Yeah lack of space means you have to get creative hahaha
They're regular tropf blumats. Feels terrible to jam them in there but after a day the plants seem to have forgotten each time.
I only grow for myself these days and I thought it would be terrible if space restrictions killed my wish to keep some moms of plants I have smoked and liked.

I see.
So you have the moms growing in their pots for a while already before you put the Blumats in?
Having a variety of genetics you like as moms is definitely a good thing.

No I put them in when I planted the rooted clones in these little pots. You can also add them later, you will tear a few roots but they'll be fine.I see.

Here's a pic of my exhaust fan/ carbon scrubber combo.
I've changed the installation from being inside the flower chamber and the fan pulling through the scrubber and blowing out to the fan sucking the air outside the smaller veg chamber, blowing through the scrubber.
This may be a bit unorthodox, but it doesn't make sense to pull bone dry air through the veg/ seedling chambers into the flower chamber when you can go the other way around, thereby giving the flowring plants dry air and pulling that same air which takes up moisture from the flower chamber and then goes through the veg chambers.
The path of the air is:
In through the top of the flower chamber (there is of course a light trap) - on to the veg and seedling chamber (through one vent port each- out the bottom of the veg chamber
My little lodge 100 tent sits on a wooden board and wheels so I can move it around to wherever it's not in the way.

A few more bits about my set up...
You've seen my scrubber fan combo now here's my reservoir it sits atop the tent. It holds about 30l/8gal
Here's the whole thing
And here's the water split to veg and flower behind the res.
Oh yes and not to forget here's a thai x panama which will be harvested by the time you read this
took around 80 days and maybe could have gone longer but I got amber trichs so decided to harvest

Hasch
learning and laughing
Ahh, very interesting!
Have you sampled it yet?
A curious about that strain.
Would appreciate a smoke report or details to the high (racy, paranoia etc).
Smoke report for Panama Haze and Thai x Panama re coming!
I've grown and smoked both before (remember I'm keeping moms of both) but, in hindsight, made a few mistakes or could have done better so hopefully this time it'll be right.
I recall that both strains were not racy or paranoid but rather mentally clear and calming while at the same time pretty energetic. Sleeping was not an option with both hahaha.

Have smoked the Panama Haze now but it needs a bit of a cure first. The high ist still a bit "confused"as I've found with many sativas which are still very fresh/ shortly after harvest.
The little cut of my Kendal Green was showing roots yesterday, that's 12 days. Not bad for my cloning style, which isn't anything at all hahaha-
Straight into Allmix and I've prepared the hole with great white.
Kendal Green is a cross between a Qleaner male and an F13 lady. It has more flavor than F13 while it retains the blissful F13 high. Very social and active weed with no ceiling.
Here's the "tech" in my tiny veg compartment.
Four Philips SILs (13w/1520lm each) some computer fans blowing air around and a hygrometer strapped to a pole.
Once a SIL grower always a SIL grower
They are still the cheapest and almost best way to sufficiently light a small area. Also, they never break, these here I've had for years and they're still going.

Finally harvested the thai x panama.
I've found a really nice setting to dry my plants at rh60% at cold temps, but since my plants are never full-size (because of the lack of space) they never take the 12-14days commercial growers mostly state for their drying time. I find mine are at 60% after 7-8 days
Once they have reached around 60% and they can't add enough humidity into to the drying tent to kick off the hygrometer that controls the exhaust fan, I put them in a box until the rh fully stabilises.
I do this as a sort of extended drying...to slow the process down as much as possible.
Once the rh is stable the buds are trimmed and go into jars with hygrometers in them to check on rh.

Here's a quick update from me...
Been growing some California Indica from Sensi. Didn't have time to do a grow report, but here they are at chop.
The one on the right is a bit more branchy but overall quite uniform, especially in the smells dept.
A lot the big fanleaves were yellowed out and are gone by now.
This is day 54 of flower btw.
Aromas are fruity, zesty, with hash tones.
This was a weird grow as I was battling the stupid aphids from the last round once again. They must have survived in the original soil amendments used in both grows.
I used GreenHouse bio feed, which I found easy to use but do you think maybe I used too much? looking at the leaves they look almost burnt but the big fan leaves are all dropped already. Maybe it's the aphids that made the plants do weird stuff, I have a feeling this is not the full potential.
The root aphids are now under control after two grows and countless measures against them. Used Beauvaria Bassiana fungus spores in the end and no flyers for now.
Anyways, I'm breaking everything down as this is just my drying tent normally and breaking out the Secret Jardin Lodge again.
New pots new soil etc of course...and then more recently acquired equipment to control VPD, a new light new fans and a fogger (30%rh here in winter).
New seeds will be popped as well!
See you soon
