Yeah it definitely isn’t liking it but its early. The pots on the floor were clone plugs straight to 2 gal at the same time and they are shorter but much sturdier just take up space a little sooner.

I freeze and dry ice tumble about 500-700 grams of dry trim at a time. That makes between 120-200 grams of kief in 2 5 minute tumbles in a 220 micron drum. Then i put 50 grams of kief in each 3x6 120 micron bag and about 20-25 grams of concentrate squeezes out on the paper. 50 squishes makes 1000 grams. A squish is light pressure warm up for 1-2mins then full pressure 180 degrees for 1-2 mins, a timer is key for everything. 12 squishes an hour is the goal while you keep the tumbler tumbling. I load the trim in turkey bags with a few handfuls of pelletized dry ice in each and it sits in a subzero freezer at -40c until its turn to tumble. The freezer holds 12-15 500 gram or so bags of trim which i consider a days work. I usually have some one filling rosin bags with kief to keep things moving while I tumble and squish.

I have bought and made several tumblers, yesterday it was the bubble magic 1500 and its alright, easy enough. After 5 min the kief color starts to get green so I keep the second tumble separate from the first. I have tried many ways and this way is the best to me for rosin that still has a good taste. We use it to make everything from lotion to chocolates.

Summary: 12-15 or so pounds of trim makes 1000 grams of squish and takes 40-50lbs of dry ice.
Love this man. Great info. My toms tumbler has a keif bag. Looking forward to doin some squishin here soon myself. Great post.

The hudson fogger is a great grow tool, use one daily. Turns the plants inside out like an umbrella in a hurricane.

Yuuuup IMO if you have a decent sized room a fogger is a great tool/investment.

You need much less spray solution in the fogger to throughly cover all leaves compared to a pump sprayer which just sprays a thin film of liquid. The fogger literally turns the spray solution into well….fog lol!

So it gets everywhere, including the undersides of the leaves, cracks in walls (getting rid of pests), the ceiling etc.

It’s almost like using a Bug Bomb when you use this thang. 😎

I’d highly recommend peeps pick one up if they don’t have one yet.

Btw sweet room and crop! You gonna stake those babies soon? 😝

I always wish i could get a way with a single layer of net but for this is my pledge, never again. Double nets from the beginning every time from this run forward. These foggers look like a dream and i will try one soon. http://www.neutrafog.com/

Hey Bro......Whadda you use in your fogger for IPM.......and or do you also use it for foliar feeding ?......and DAMN.....Those neautrafog thingies are pricey as fuck but the coverage in cubic meters is outrageous......Commercial dope growin just got easier with those units as far as critter control and foliar feedin`s concerned......Sheesh........

Thanks.....DHF.......

Just for this first week, they didn’t like being fed every day and the slabs still feel wet after a day off but yeah its about to go to three times daily and up from there. If you have experience with rockwool i would love to hear your input, its my first run with it.
