gdawg, welcome back brotha! The dehuey cost me about 220 shipped no tax. Had to get it online, cause every store around me doesnt stock dehueys right now, just out of season! Ahh well. Check it out online, a big site like amazon or eBay, should be no problem to find one year round. This thing works real well, my night-time RH is down to 35%, but the tank filled up quick!!! I gotta run continual drainage. This model is extremely quiet too, even on high settings.
Also why dont you show us some pics of those girls you got going. Throw em up in here if you like =). hey I've never scrogged, but I've done everything else. Is SCROG sort of like LST, where the plant will get stuck in the net, and force the lower sites to shoot up into the net? That the basics? Cause maybe this WW would be a candidate for that hehe. This pheno, lineage is REAL hazy, I dont have a good line on this strain yet, so I'll go by trich cloudiness. I'm guesstimating around or about 60 days, I took it around 56 last time in soil, and I enjoyed the stone very much, but prolly coulda gone 10 more.
eddie, Yeah, it's looking like im gonna have to tie them over, guess what.. STILL STRETCHING. lol.

hey C.Q. ya i just started pumpin some co2 on my girls and dang if it ain't gettin humid as hell in there. i don't have a hygrometer 
but it feels like 65-70percent. i've never had any kind of mold problems with these 2 strains so i'm not panicin. my window ac. has a dry feature but to really dry it out it gets a lil too cool in there. as for my scrog, well this is my first try with it so i can't really give any pointers. i didn't even put my screen,2"x4" metal fencin, on until the 2nd day of 12/12 but these girls stretch so much i don't think it mattered. but i am sure it is going to increase my yield, i almost want to say double but i won't yet. what are your nute levels now? i'm on day 16 and about to rez change to 1.2. too much? too little? the nl5xhaze is almost overdone @ 62 days. my other strain is incan spirit from hemcy it goes 70-75 and a heavy feeder, big yielder. enough about my struggles hehe, give us some more C.Q.!!!

dude C_Q it's going off huh!?!? Yea man I trim the first month of flower still too. Just the lower buds that suck up energy and waste food and water get those outta there always! Looks like you trimmed nicely can we see the underside 
Remember you want to trim, because you have small bags yes, but also so that the plants can all focus on their main top buds. You might not notice a difference, but I'm sure those top buds will be fatter and frostier then they would have been. Great work so far man, they are gonna be monsters for sure! PEACE BRO!

I'm officially retarded.
This run, this run... didn't turn out how I had expected. Just wayy too much growth, too fast, . "There's alway's next run", lol how many times have I heard that!
Anyways, so 25, five foot tall very sativa leaning plants, in 1 gallons. I'm amazed a 1 gallon can sustain this size plant. Took all those bitches out of there for a real good pruning session. I tried to avoid it.... But I need not give up on these girls just yet.
start of week 5, day 29. Have been sustaining 1.8ec, throughout the week. Start of every week gets them a flush 0ppm. looks like they dont want to go much over 1.8ec, got tip burn, and some pistil burns. Flush came out at 2.1ec first watering, then 1.6ec 2nd watering. I'm gonna flush for one more day, then get back to 1.8-1.9 for week 5. Monkey Juice, Big Bud, Carboload, B-52, Fulvic, thats whats going in for wk 5.
This thing needed MAJOR venting to outside the closet. Created ALOT of heat.
There's a Y back there. So now I pull from the hood & the dehuey's exhaust.

gdawg, dayum sonny! You are puttin in WORK over there ehh!? abotu the nute levels, I was at 1.6ec at week 2, if your girls are not looking deep green health, maybe bump it. And def check on that humidity. Seriously, I lost a half zip to mold last run, not much right? A half-zip sells for 200 around here.... Almost exactly the price of the dehuey lol. I had to put up for it after that.
BTW, your canopy/room look fuggin tight dood! Mad respect for you putting in work like that =)
thc43, and then you stop by with that super-slick looking little room of yours! Tight bro! Feel free to drop ANY and ALL pics in my thread if you like!!! =) What strain is that? Can you say swollen? Kinda looks like some Cush/GC pics I've seen around.
caligreen & 707, thanks for stopping back. I def am putting in some work on this baby, not as much as you guys tho! =P
Yeah I had to take your guys advice. Check it out, I did a half-ass pruning a few days ago, didnt wanna stress em right? I was just gonna call it day at that point. So today i'm looking at the girls, looking at them... do I really wanna take all these girls out, hassle like a hoff, and then put em all back in. Man my space is small and hard to work with, but I said fuggit, they come out, and out they went. What a hasslehoff. Pulled off a "tall kitchen trashbag's" worth of lowers...

hey C.Q. thanx for the reply and compliment i will bump my level up tonight to 1.6. they are at 1.3 now and lookin like they need something. it was makin me nervous becuase of my coco reuse but now i'm thinkin they're just hungry. this is my first run with a truncheon meter, always had to guess before so i'm lovin life now, almost as much as when i quit handwaterin and turned on the drippers, know what i mean!! nice lookin work on the dehuey bro! mine has dropped some i just had to tinker with my exhaust timers and everything, still not perfect. i am really happy with my canopy, i will definately be doin the fence thing again cuz i'm sure i can do better next time. glad to see ya back C.Q.
G
gdawg
well C.Q. bumped em to 1.4 last night and they get a flush in a couple days i'll take it on up to 1.5 or 1.6. dang havin a meter makes it soooo easy! my screen is so full of buds its unreal. i'll try to borrow a better camera and get some pics in the next few days.

Heya gdawg, yeah when I started my clones, they really looked too lime green, not emerald green. I think we both making the mistakes of going too lite. I'm seeing some respected growers that are using high ec levels early on, at least what looks high to me. Good thing on the truncheon man! Bare necessity! Now your gonna get dialed! =)
Thought I would throw up some pics of the stable, whats in store for the future. My mom/veg/clone space is tiny, think cupboard in the kitchen. I constantly remake my moms because of space. I want them healthy/not too root bound, and I like to take the cuts when the plants are healthy & on the grow, not all root-bound in a tiny 5.5" container. Sometimes I shave the rootball back & throw in some fresh dirt, if I dont have any plans with that strain for a while. The micro moms stay in dirt, it's easier to manage, and sometimes I can be lazy and let them go 4 days w/o watering, if needed.
Here's the WW we're running now.
Grand Daddy Purple (Ken's I'm told)
Bubba Kush
Dynamite, this one is an amazingly hearty indica, fast growth, short flowering.
The unknown soldier, I'm sure we all have our unknown's. Not bagseed, a clone given to me.
That's it, got the 5 in the stable, and I'm thinking about dropping the unknown. But this variety keeps me happy as pigs in shit.

Cant wait to see those updated pics bro!! I would def say bump them to at least 1.6 maybe even 1.8. They looked pretty big in those pics you put up. Thats gonna be a massive sea of budage! Looking back at your pics, man thats a jungle hehe! NL5XHaze sounds reall yummy man!

hey C.Q. you got a nice lookin bunch of mamas there. the nl5xhaze is from sensi and its probably the best i've got right now, real sweet and spicy and after a month cure takes on a real peppery smell. i kinda live in the uninhabited part of the boondocks, theres no such thing as clone or seed trading round here. i've been runnin the same two strains for about 2 years now but i'm moving and got to start over in a couple of months, and i'm dyin to pop some seeds i've been collectin from seedbay. just picked up a pack of sweet tooth#3 and rezs double strawberry diesel, folks round here think diesel what ya put in the ol tractor! whatcha runnin next? heres a pic from a few i cut down the other day, nothin special due to extreme drought and heat. the seeds in the packs are mountain jam and island sweet skunk.

yo C.Q. whats goin on over there? you ain't trapped in that jungle are ya? don;t drink the dripper water!!! changed my rez tonight and bumped it up to about 1.7 they're @ 22 days now, and been at 1.6 for about 3 or 4 days and lovin it. what are going to max out at and how long do your ww girls take? when i flushed tonight my e.c was about .6, is that good? gotta go take down the rest of this years outdoor tomorrow and i'll get a few more pics in the next day or so. show us some progress C.Q.!
Yeppers....Blueberry family, widows, landrace sats usually like 1.6-1.8, Kushes up to 2.1, everything else inbetween. PPMs/EC tell the story though, when ur ronoff or recirc res is higher/lower than what you put in....Which Bubba is that? Good choice not going all Bubba, though she is one of the best, running a whole room of her is kinda crazy with the tiny yeild, unless of course you've got more than one room/light. Nice to see ya doin the drip, it's like going from acoustic to electric guitar. Drip does accelerate the stretch tho if temps aren't perfect, or too much N in the first 2 weeks. I got these 4 ft Kushes to prove it, there's always the next run lol.

gdawg
hey C.Q. got a lil question for you or anyone really. flushed, then changed the rez last night, got it @ 1.6-1.8 and after tonights feeding its reading between 1.4 and 1.6. how'd that happen? usually it gets stronger after a couple feedins. my big girls are LOVIN it and my haze i can see just the slightest tip burn. i think i'll try to keep em around 1.7 for the next week or so. give us some progress reports over there C.Q. , i'll try to sneak a couple pics tonight.
G
gdawg
ok i'm back ya just doublechecked my rez its steady @ 1.4 
am i in for a big bad surprise in a couple days? i'll top it off tonight back 1.6. but my indicas are just boomin. the haze it seems to have stretched some more and i kinda lost that nice canopy but there are tons of bud sites 
and i'm sure my yield will greatly improve if i can just keep a handle on things. my haze used to yield so badly i would only put a couple in the room for my head stash but now i think it might rival the yield of my indicas or come pretty dang close. as far as the coco reuse my flush last night come down to .6 which i guess is good. i have noticed a LOT more fine coco in my rez when i change out. well i'm throwin a couple pics up i hope you aren't offended, i aint tryin to hijack your thread. heres @ 23 12/12 the leaves are green as hell my camera just sux. and the 400mh in the middle is blinding too. hit me back C.Q
