Dog’s Yard

[Yarddog]

Trimmed all but one. Waiting for rooted cuts for one plant.
First dark was this morning. Let’s start another nine week affair.

I don't know how I missed your thread @Yarddog but I did lol

If you got the AG from me it's liquids

Nice to see that you have the Sunshine Daydream and the Hippy Slayer still. Two very good strains

How do you like the Jackberry ?

Hey Whip glad you stopped by. I have not tried the Jackberry yet. I have one that just went in bloom, or fixing to go in bloom. I am very fortunate to have the sunshine daydream and hippy slayer cut. We can thank @buzzmobile for the generosity.
Three AG looking good. Still have seeds too. Was thinking of maybe dusting a little pollen if I have a male and female. Just to have plenty. Would like to give back. For years I’ve been enjoyed the community and I’d like to give back.

Put a few hours in the basement today. Made a little framework to cover one tent so I could stack the two veg tents on top of each other.
Hung the filter and fan, plumbed it out to the crawl space.
Got the light wired and hung. Will make the brain bucket tomorrow and set the reservoir up. Looks like I’ll have the tent ready tomorrow. But will be a week or so before the plants are ready to flip. This tent is using a mag ballast so I can’t swap a MH bulb in like I normally would. I have a MH ballast but it’s only a 175 watt. Don’t think that’s good enough for a 9 square foot space.
Up potted the girls that will be going in the 3x3. Will veg them a week or so in the new pots then toss them in. 9 weeks later like magic.

3x3 tent. Tight squeeze. Normally would stick the fan on the filter. Used a thick ducting to minimize unfiltered air leaking into the system. Small hood, wish I’d spent $20 more and gotten the same hood that was moved to the 4x4.

I built model airplanes, so I have all sorts of nuts, bolts etc. hinges, engine mounts, linkages etc. I am ADD so I am really a disorganized person.

Just like @Whip, I have not seen this version of Dog's Yard. I had to quote you on the 9/28 dated post. That was my soggy birthday and Helene made a new pond in my basement. I'm wondering if you have any loose screws still hanging around on the table. I am missing a few.

I have a couple of magnetic 1KW ballasts in MH and HPS gathering dust here for you if you would like them. I wired them for 240V but it's easy to change back to 120.

I screwed up on backing up the Soulmate cut so if you have it the next time you are in the neighborhood that would be good to have. I ordered Soulmate and grew out and sexed 2 females and 4 males with a plant or two not sexed yet. I'll be collecting pollen from the boys.

It is good to see the Dog Yard lit up again.

I have it. It’s strong too. It is a pesky plant to clone for me. I have it in flower first few days. With ten cuts trying to root. And I’ll take more cuts today to have a good chance to root. About to put the first Jack Berry in bloom next week. Excited to try that. And animal cookie. First time in flower for that as well.

Ordered a bunch of seeds. Bunch of lemons. Lemon tree from Barney’s. Grass monkey and model cement from Ledseedz. The model cement is hippy slayer cut x Durbandesert lime x lavender lemonade from Bodhi.
Also got a few Girl Scout Cookie seeds. Will see how they turn out. I sure miss I cookie.
The soulmate reminds me of her by smell.

You noticed that too. LOL I thought I had one rooted. I thought wrong. The Jackberry smells like cherries.

@buzzmobile and I completely ignored your offer on ballasts. If you’re not going to use them I’d keep them for a spare in case my digital goes out. But the 3x3 tent is too small for a 1k light.
When I get an out building in a year or two I may have room to use the 1k ballasts.

Happy belated soggy birthday, old top.

Let’s plan a visit around January or February. That way if I have something really good from these new seeds I can share it with you.

Sounds good. I have hoods to go too.

3x3 is ready. Plants will be ready in a few days. 4x4 is starting to get some bud sites. First week in bloom. They got their final trim yesterday. Next week I’ll stake them out and that’s it till they finish.
The nursery is looking good, lots of new stuff for the next rotation. Looks like I have an Acapulco gold female, several lemon strains to try too.
Rocky Mountain red and some C-99

Note to self. Buy the dang $60 sump pump controller and stop manually starting pumps for the flood and drain. Two days in a row I forgot and pumped out fifteen gallons in the tent and basement floor. Stoopidz.

Nice grow!
2 questions:
What's in the aquarium?
What's the water-source for the pond?
Curious: why not get a timer for the pump for $16?

Sounds like a good plan YD, a $60.00 well spent.
Tomorrow I'm hoping to get some seeds soaking and get my 3x3 tent up and running, without the water

You have a good assortment of strains going. I like to use the peat pucks.

Does the sump pump controller work on water level?

Neon tetra’s, a few loaches and some snails. Not much for a 55 gal tank. It’s planted and well established. I don’t do water changes, I suck out maybe 20% of the gravel every six months or so. Just letting the plants do their thing.

Pond has a small but reliable creek.
My flood and drain uses a controller bucket and independent flood pots for the plants. The water level is maintained by float level sensors to cycle the fill and drain pumps. A generic timer will be connected to the sump controller to cycle each days watering.

Yes it has sensors for water level. My store bought system has redundant sensors. This DIY will not. But I’ve taken worse risks in life. No electronics are on the floor and it’s a basement sooo


I moved to the rock wool cubes but I don’t really like them. Peat pucks work better for me too.
