That Lil~shit's @ it again.....

[SirSmokalot]

That's what I'm in need of. New manifold and maybe even a new pump. Then I can get the aero back in action. I'm already lined up for the next run so I should fill it as an experiment if it works like the days of old I might just end up with extras for a friend or maybe even a new office. I can't seem to save much this last yr so getting the funds aside for the office build has been impossible. I need another 4k humming I'm getting bored.

 

[Marlo]

Well shit. I haven't been able to get anything to root in months.
If guys like yall that can really grow are building new manifolds... I guess thats what I need to do too.

Thanks Sprout!

 

[LyryC]

are you using R/O water or Tap water?

I got Diamond nectar and floranectar pineapplerush to.

I noticed u mix cal mag at a lower rate, is that because you use tap?

I got to incorporate floracious plus - the diamond nectar and flora nectar into my nute regime with only a 0.1EC + fluctuation and a 0.1+ PH fluctuation. 5.9 ph 1.3 EC

Thanks sprout!

I use Hygrozyme at 4ml per gal rate so maybe I could lower that too.

I think I can get away with using 1ml of floracious per gallon and use koolbloom.

U know that blue scoop the Great white comes with? I use that for the koolbloom powder. I never actually measure the amount but its always small, like a quarter of that scoop filled.

I think in reality, I just need CO2 in my room

 

[lil~greensprout]

SirSmokaLot, $5 and you can have one too... Lol !
Hey, what ya think of that Gorilla glue sample and don't hold back,
good, bad or indifferent I wanna know how it compares to the best !

Marlo, ya desperate times call for... well in this case, a new manifold.
I've been run'n mine all week too break it in, like with a new fish tank.
Your more than welcome my friend, sometimes "we" forget the lil things !

LyryC, let see... I run tap for all the reasons you mentioned, that and
it's easier, PH is more stable, it's way more efficient... the list goes on.
Not sure I'd want a room full of co2, seems kinda sorta risky to me...

I think this is my third go with the Glue and this run has by far the
fattest stalks yet. I attribute part of that too the fact I vegg'd them
under the big lights (1800 watts) and the addition of the silica blast
into my nute regiment, either way they're fat as fuck so I'm digg'n it !

Get'n closer to where I was going... day 18 of flowering.

I raised the back of the nets 6" too better accommodated the larger
plants in the rear, it should make get'n pictures later easier as well.

Gratuitous parting shot...

Look'n too incorporate some Epsom salt into the mix here, anyone
wanna chime in about it potential use, dosages, duration, etc...
I'm all ears.

This song just rocks, for so many reasons and really... isn't why we're all here !
Trying too figure it out...

What's the effect of the silica blast on your water when you add it? (pH and TDS) Did you have to cut anything down to make room?

Edit: Nice on the Royal Blood! Going to see them open for Foo Fighters in August. Never heard 'em, but heard Howard talk a lot about 'em..

 

[LyryC]

yeah co2 in here would mean no more me.

Tap water here is inhumane.

I bet your glue sucks haha I know mine sucks

theres so many freaking silica sources... did you run outa armor si? or you want a different form of silica?

I was using Grotek Prosilicate but ran out and am now using Protekt...

cigarettes suck

 

[Treetroit City]

Royal blood was bad ass.

 

[wildgrow]

Camel jockey!

Whats your air exchange rate? Is silica blast potassium silicate?

 

[SirSmokalot]

Silica raises pH
it's adds to the ppm but not much.
lil- i recommend a different brand. Silica blast looks like Jizz in the res. I switched it up to clear silica. Its also much stronger like 1 ml per gal. Humboldt brand I'm on now.
Glue was very nice I only smoked 1 bud. Saving the other for u know who... as good as any ive smelled tasted. Urs had a lil sour note that i like to smell taste. Really nice smooth smoke. I smoked it with stoney. He dug it too. I'd buy it!?
Plants look bitchin

 

[Grizz]

WHAT ? stoney liked it ? fuck oh dear, he usually don't like anything that hasent died on the stem at like 90 days,

 

[lil~greensprout]

Silver, like Sir said it does raise the PH a bit, tho that's easily fixable.
Ya they rock, I enjoy the old school beat and that rip'n bass guitar too !

LyryC, The tap water way up here is just as good as any bottled brand.
Yep it suck hind tit... probably be best if I just smoked it all myself, lol !

SirSmokalot, should have seen the grin on my face when I read that...
Glad you and Stoney enjoyed it, wished I could have been there with ya !
Ya those were poorly chosen words, I used the term silica blast sort of
generically there... specifically I used Armor Si by General hydroponics
@ 1.5 mils per gallon, it's clear tho it's tinted baby blue, shit worked !

joesy, I believe that " U know who" Sir spoke of is "you that's who"...
hit that stuff and let me know what you think, I chop'd it at 70 days.
Tell ya this much for sure... it's insanely popular with all my friends !
Everbody's smoke'n that Gorilla glue...

Third Coast, I'd pay too see them, perhaps next summer I'll do that.

Wildgrow, good eye... according to my calculations I'm right around
four exchanges per hour, perhaps next week I'll bring home a digital
manometer from work and we can verify that with some hard data.
Not sure about your other question as I just started using the stuff.

Got them clones cut this afternoon, most have perked back up already
19 Glues... what too do, what too do ?

Fuck'n stoked... got all my shit roll'n again !
Sprout.

 

[silver hawaiian]

Fuck'n stoked... got all my shit roll'n again !

You mean it doesn't take you 4+ months?

Look at those glue trunks, damn! I got twigs compared to yours, killer job brotha. Gotta get me a new bottle of silica now that ya remind me.

On the epsom salt, start off at 1/4 tsp per gallon an work up to 1 tsp per gallon at most. Not many strains need that much epsom so my preference is 1/4 tsp per g., Og's get 1/4-1/2 tsp per gallon. It will raise e.c. high so watch for over fert. Foliar is just as helpful as drenching but as you get into flowering you want to stick to mixing it into your nutes.

 

[SirSmokalot]

If you aren't having a mg deficiency I'd say don't worry about epsoms
They also work better as a foliar in a hydro setup. Fast acting n u don't need to worry about it affecting your mix that you already know is fine.
Just spray 1x a week for first three weeks. That will add what ever u need, although I don't think you need anything
I've never noticed purple stems or mg deficient striping on your plants, why the change? Out of curiosity.
Maybe ill go back n peek again at pics of old.

 

[SirSmokalot]

I just looked at you day 18 pics. They are perfect. Tiny bit of purple on the leaf stems. Totally fine
Zero racing stripes no tiger stripes on leaves. Perfect. Keep rockin!
No additional food needed

 

[lil~greensprout]

Silver, after 4 months I'd be "Bat crap crazy" it's in my blood !

Artie, thanks bro, it's something too tinker with later on.

Sir, Probably more for my mother plants than anything... I know
I outta be tranplanting them more often then I do, perhaps I'll
get on that right now, got a new bag of FFOF just sitting there !

Here's a better pic taken just as the lights came on,, but before it's
too bright in there and all the colors get washed out & overexposed.

Closer upper...

Had too add 30 gallons to the reservoir last night as these girls are thirsty...
got it all Dialed in too, dropped the pH from 6.0 and up`d the nutes slightly
for the next phase of "heavy bud building action" over the next few weeks !

Gotta roll... shop'n till I'm drop'n,
Sprout.

 

[SirSmokalot]

Is it me or is that net just gonna keep filling in?
Love the addition of the 2 buckets. This is how I pictured the room all along!

Merry Christmas lil-greensprout and all my fellow grow'n bothers out there ... -F.S

Feliz navidad pinche wuey!!!
