You dial yer shit within 6 degrees lights , on lights off like Bobbles was doin early on his path to Nirvana and yas`ve done somethin.......

Respect Groundie........Environment`s EVERYTHING with all the pieces fallin into place for consistent returns every cycle......

Run in , run out.....month to month , yr to yr.....or......You`re just out there flounderin , changin strains , and jumpin at all the ads on shit that`ll increase yields that end in fuckin up yer nutrient profile /regimen , causin lockouts and imbalances from PH fluctuations with all the witch`s brew added all in the main rez/cauldron for God only knows where juice ends up once settled for plant assimilation....anyways...

K.I.S.S.....and stick with whatchas know....My 2 cents from all them yrs....strains included....

Good luck...DHF....:ying:.....
Holy chit been there done that....environment actually saves you money...less stress, less heat related issues ,less feed.....

I agree 100% on the ac... spend the buck,, my room is dialed.. it never changes within 6 degrees ,and yes today its 104... if it fails i have a back up next to it!!,,, always remember.. Whats your crop worth!!??

I have my temperature within 8 degrees but I live in a pretty "temperant" area ) North Coast of Cali so we don't see extreme temps very often, I just let in someone else's PM'd clones last run and need to get a commercial Deuhuey which is a bitch to find...I almost had one yesterday but it got sold before I could get their.

Clean up of indoor vertical done - *** UPDATE *****

Clean up of indoor vertical done - *** UPDATE *****

OK well it's been a real fucking chore. Gro-bro had to bring in his younger brother to help we had so much work. We've learned a LOT! I am a little embarrassed to admit we are STILL making mistakes and this was a flippin huge one, we had PM IN the small catch area of the buckets (we no longer are using buckets to support the shelves), we had PM on the Panda walls (we will change this out EVERY run), walls behind Panda had PM on them and had to be bleached and wiped down clean, FLOOR had PM in cracks, bleach and water and mop cleaned that up. We had old tubing from drip system that had PM in it, it's in trash and gone.

I think you get the idea, we repainted the redwood shelving with mold-proof paint that Bobble used on his racks. Their drying on the deck as I type and will go in tomorrow and we are using cinder blocks to support the shelves now and the third shelve (top shelf) was cut down to give us a bit more "head" room for that shelf's plants as they were just bunching up at the ceiling and we can get a bit more yield now. We cleaned out EVERY airflow tube and bleach sprayed them clean, took down scrubber and cleaned it as much as we could. (geezus)......NOW we will reload with only 2 strains, Bobbles Strawberry ChemD and my old favorite (we JUST found the cut from a dude way up in the hills) Allen Wrench.

Now to the outdoor and OMG we went a bit crazy because 1) we are broke as a joke and 2) Sunlight is free so Gro-Bro kinda went nuts...enjoy

Group shot I have'nt counted yet but I think at the moment we have 50 - 60 plants most are USD.

GSC is getting Crazy!!!!

USD almost 6' high already, at harvest they could get to 15' if we let them lol!

Somehow we lost a favorite of mine though??? Gro-Bro pulled males as soon as they showed balls, and I think we lost ALL the UK Cheese..I am SOOO bummed because that strain was the shit and a LOT of my friends really liked it here locally.

More later....and thank you guys DHF , Bobblehead everyone for your help, I cannot believe something I SHOULD have checked and now seems SO obvious really put the ball squeeze on us, but NOW we have learned it WON'T happen again.

AOD and Bonzo,

Thanks guys...yeah the outdoor is going to really save our butts AND we are saving a lot of electrical $$$ atm since we only have the veg tent cooking downstairs, in a few weeks we will re-load and get going with a nice indoor grow again.

Have a great week all!

I "just" posted new pics (including the 6' USD)???? What more do you want of me, it's always ABOUT YOU DAMMIT..me,me, me...well what about ME??? HUh What about MY!!! needs??? Dammit! :cry:

Oh sorry got of track their for a second....ok short update, my mad scientist guy at the local nursury that doubles as a grow store lol, Angus gave me his secret top dressing recipe;

OK start with 30 lbs of worm casting, then mix in

- Mix in 2 cups Dolomite - is a carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate CaMg(CO3)2.
In horticulture, dolomite and dolomitic limestone are added to soils and soilless potting mixes to lower their acidity and as a magnesium source. Home and container gardening are common examples of this use.

Dolomite is also used as the substrate in marine (saltwater) aquariums to help buffer changes in pH of the water.

- 1 lb of Sea Kelp - The ocean's garden abounds with plants rich in the elements land plants need to flourish, such as proteins, minerals, growth hormones, vitamins and enzymes. The growth hormones in kelp, such as cytokinin, aid the plant in processes like cell division and enlargement and the development of chloroplasts. Plants treated with sea kelp tend to grow stronger root systems, resulting in more abundant produce and richer foliage. Sea kelp also stimulate soil bacteria, which improves soil fertility through humus formation and aeration. In addition, plants treated with sea kelp develop a stronger resistance to disease and insect infestations, as their immune systems are supported by the additional vitamins and minerals that kelp contributes to the soil.

- 1 lb Fish Bone - is a good slow release fertilizer to supply phosphorus and calcium. Bone meal also has some nitrogen. Bone meal takes a long time to break down in the soil.

- 1 lb Crab Meal - is made from crabs and contains chitin a.k.a chitosans.
** CHITIN is in the shells of crustaceans such as crabs, crayfish and clams. It is like magic for your plants. Chitosans, as they are also sometimes called, help prevent plant disease to create healthier plants. They also give tolerance to heat and cold and other enviromental extremes. Chitin can also help flowering plants to produce more flowers for a longer period of time. This includes vegetables that flower to produce food such as tomatoes. Use silicon and chitin together for maximum results. **

I will top dress everything with 1/2 cup (10 Gallon bags) to 1 cup 45 gallon once every 7 - 10 days.

Tomorrow he is going to show me how to do my own compost tea generator to do 10 gallons at a time.

Here are the 6' USD in 45 gallon smart bags;
