SLEEPY DUDE!!!!! How are you my brotha!!!!! Damn good to see you here!!!

Im tellin ya Sleepy, i wish we could do scratch and sniff on the computer cause the smell of that Skush is just unreal Sweet skunky friutyness! Somethin' like that anyway, arent you runnin some Skush now at your place, ill be right over!

Bella allways says hi bro!

hey crazy whats up dude, yeah this cab could fit a convertable mini no prob! The end to end CT is 45" give or take an inch but i dont know how close together they are in the middle so couldnt tell ya exactly, but 45 " as they are now.

Why thank you 70's, i have a ways to go till i can get it to produce like yours though. I had an eight 2 gallon bucket ebb and flow in there for a minute but dont remember why i didnt go through with it? But ya know i have ran so many buckets that im really lookin forward to this lil SOG THINGY!

Hey BG , I know you know that i know that all the dry yellow leaves arent comin back. lol However im fascinated with what you have to say about just jammin em into flower? THere allready in the trays and in the pots and i am just tryin to get em a tad healthier lookin before i go 12/12, you think i should just switch nutes , go to full strenghth nute and let them lil gals do there thing? Im all for it if it will work, ive never done this strait from clone to flower thing so im in the dark a bit here. That would be fuckin killer bro if they would handle that and start puttin on the budage?!!!

shit i gotta change nutes anyway , when i got home the rubbermaid i was usin was leakin like a sieve. so? GH3PT FLOWER FULL STRENGTH? Woooooooo Hoooooooooo , man!!!


peace

LOL, I'm out of it right now. I know you know what your doing. I'm bad with saying the right thing on the internet. If you remember my old grows. Most of the time. I would pretty much throw my clones into 12/12 with out any vegging. Once they had healty roots. They would be into the 12/12 tray. Its all up to you and what you think. They will get healthier as they flower and uptake the nutz. Nothing much you can do about shitty looking clones, but wait till they bounce back. That's what nice about hydro. They tend to bounce back quick. I'm sure they will be fine and ready to go into the flowering setup. I'm a bit rusty, so don't mind me. I'll be lucky enough to get seeds to germ once i'm back.
Merry Christmas,
BG

No, dont get me wrong BG, the only thing iwas pokin fun at was the old dry yellow leaves, i was thinkin about throwin right into 12/12 myself and that they would bounce back with the bloom nutes. I aint pullin your chains homie, i wanna learn from the best.

I know you wasn't. Can't wait to see these girls getting fat. These are the only girls i like large and big, lol. I'm sure they won't take long to bounce back. I think mine would take about two full weeks to really look good with nice new growth also. About that time, color is getting a nice deep dark green. Good luck and have a super X-mas.
Take care,
BG

Hey Bonzo very nice thread, but gave me a small headache going from page 1 til the end. Didn't realize how many pages there were til after i started but it was like a good book ya can't put down! I noticed early on you had six square pots in a sterilite contaner in what appeared to be a mini e/f. I use the same container but the larger size on the bottom for a nice size resivour. Works good to veg prior to placing in their bucket.

ebb n flo veg container


Nice roots ready to flower

Howdy all! Well o got tome pics of my strange lookin clones. All the yellow leaves you see were allready yellow when put into pots. One of the things i did as an experiment was taking big clones as well as smaller ones, also i took a few two topped clones, i tried these experiments with my OGRE cause of how fast and easy she roots.

ALL cuts rooted in typical OGRE fashion: fastso i figured i could wait awhile till what i had in the cab was done or at least allmost done, well that resulted in 1 1/2 foot roots. I actually started giving tham a little GH3pt in the cloner.

Now when i put 'em in the pots they were at about 400 ppm and i slowly, well each day brought them up a bit, then , fuck it i just today brought em' up to 1150, i think tomorrow il bring em uop to 1250 and then see what they do.

i have more in the cloner and they should be rooting in 3 or 4 days if these just arent going to make it.

any how............... input?

duh, how about pics? he he

To be honest with ya i searched the world over and never found exactly what i was told to use and every thing was more expensive than i thought it would be. have nio idea where you live but i happen to know for a fact alot a KBSers are goin to COCO x HYDROTON for their mix.

Were you looking at BBQ LAVA at lowes?

My personal opnion, is fuck lava and give the coco/hydroton mix a try, beleive me ive heard of lots of people makin the change.

keep in touch, you have anything setup yet? room ,lights, a/c?

HEY HARRY NUGZ, Sorry for not sayin HIGH!!!!!!!

The system your referring to is'nt mine, but i love your veg unit and that is exctly what i do with my buckets.

I go from Homemade EZCloner to EBB & FLOW in net pots then just drop the netpot in the bucket, works killer, looks like you've got it wired! Nice roots and DAMN! Look at that growth, kickin' ass my brotha!!!!

BG!! You would use ready grow in ebb & fow tables? Interesting, i used ready grow in the plants i have ithe walk in, it was killer, all i dud was handwater once a day with GH3pt and they were healthy as could be. So i thought i could pop em outa the cups they were in, rinse any loose stuff off and pop em into my ebb and flow buckets and poof id be off and running . I did expect a bit of shock but nothing toobad. well it didnt work out that way, i know for one thing going from being watered once a day to being flooded 5 times a day, was a bit of a shocker so i turned it down to one flood a day. Then they start lookin like shit and now i dont know what the fuck to do, it looks like calcium /magnesium, im notsure so last nite i drained the rez and put em on trasitional nutes (1-1-1) and added Gnatrol, i all of the sudden noticed a have gnats. Waddya think? Waste of time? i allredy have some cuts in the cloner, just pissed that all this is happening at once.

70's, id love to have your input as well.

peace you guys

bonz















by the way 70's i copletely agree with the clones, we shall see what tomorrow will bring! :woohoo:

Bonzo my buddy don't panic yet, I know your girls dont look happy. I normally try not to give advice but since you asked i'll try and help.

1st there in shock from the TP so you dont want to do anything to crazy so smoke a bowl and chill a bit.

2nd they look way too big to only be watered 1 time per day if there in hydroton, maybe go to 3 times during lights on, 1 time during dark till they stablize then increase.

3rd Your using GH 3 part correct? you say you at a 1-1-1 ratio, how much of each and are you adding anything else??

Bonzo, I've used it in my Ebb&Flo tables with great results. There are two different types that you can buy. One is the stuff you was using. You would water once a day or two, "Moist" type. Then, there's the stuff me and TK was using when the stuff came out. Its the lighter stuff that need's watering 4-5. The only thing about the stuff i was using. Was you had to watch it till about the third watering. My 5.25 square pots would float till they get the bottoms wet some. About after the third watering. They don't float any after about the third watering. I really loved the stuff and plan to using it plenty down the road.

So, how are the plants doing? They bouncing back yet? Well, let us know how things are going.
Take care,
BG

hello my friends, after i bit of thought and dabating weather or not these cuts should get flowered. i sterted lookin at em up close , i started noticing alot of new growth. That could in my mind not at least get a shot. However there was a bit of work involved. I bought a peice of that "L" metal with holeh or so. The plan: Take both lites down remove the old bulbs, a homie of mine sent me a couple he got off ebay for like .19 cents each or somethin like that, so as you can see my lights are 2 cooltubes inline with a 465 CAN FAN suckin the hest out, works very well. onll thing i didnt take seriously (like a dumbass) was a filter on the open end of the tubes. I fooled around a bit with pantyhose but allways the same thing you get home one day and there just gone poof!!!!! Sucked into the fan from hell can you imagine those poor hoes gettin just fuckin shredded as passed through? Pretty cool huh? But i was worried about my fan so i just left the thing open.

So, first ordrer of bidnrss, uundo all the plumbing and get plants out of dangers way, no prob every thing popped right off, bothe flood and drain. Second: cover the rez, i used a towel and some ducttape worked perfectly. So my plants are out of the way the rez is covered and i can start tearin shit apart. You can see in some pics that my lights are hung from 4 points, well that was just too damn much of a pain in the ass to raise and lower so this is where the "L" metal with all the holes comes into play, just hang the 4 points to the "L" and put a hook and chain on each end, ended up workin pretty good. I scrubbed every inch of those tubed from front to back and back again.

So with the "L" metal hanging in place all i had to do was raise up my lights and attach em , right? Well it all looked good on paper but it was more than a struggle than i had anticipated. Well with everythink squeaky clean i out the new bulub in wearing a glove NEVER touch your bulbs with your bare hands the oils in your skin stick to the bulbs like stink on shit creating hotspots and eventually BULB EXPLOSION!!!!!!!! WOOOOO HOOOOOO. no really. So all was tight i put my plants back hokked up the plumbing and for some reason they just looked better! Cool huh! So i fired the lamps and wow lemme tell ya , either those were old bulbs or all that cleaning just let em shine through cause they were BRIGHT!!!!!! Right then i remembered i got a small bottle of hygrozyme and i wanted to change nutes anyway. They were on a diet of 3-2-1 grow of GH 3pt. I wanted to give them transitional nutes at 1-1-1. so i changed nutes ,not bothereing to flush nuch cause im a dumbass, so anyway i have a bucnch of 5 gallon buckets that are kinda my do it all buckets, no holes, just buckets i have 4 gallons marked off on each one so i filled with 4 gallons water and added 4 tsp grow, 4 tsp blm and 4 tsp micro. Boom thats it were ready to play, so i got everyu thing just right and gave her a flush on "auto" on the timer. By this time i swear these plants are lookin kinda healthy, i know one thing for damn sure ive see some way more fucked up clones going into flower, so i started feelin' pretty good and trimmin the dead shit off, it was fun!

So all said and done i swear i can see then reacting to the hygrozyme allready, ha ha!!!!

any how a few picks of my adventure, oh one more thing , i had bought some killer filter material so i basically taped a cap on the end, works pretty good.

ok













Like i said i swear these lil clones wanna GO!!!! WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO

Ill see yall next time!!!! :woohoo: duh!!!! with more pics :woohoo: if anyone knoes how to turn that pick, feel free!!!

peace
