So you add the tap water on top.
I always did the opposite.

Whatever works.
Some older strains just need more,
Take the A5 haze for instance, loves 2.5 ec

I add the scale as there are two. 0.5 an 0.7.

TA, please correct me if I'm wrong -- mack, he is saying that EC measurements do not rely on the scale(s) that PPM measurements do. The addition of the scale used when discussing an EC reading alone is extraneous information.


I love Tahoe and this is a great setup. I'm tagged! :tiphat:

Nice garden.

I see you have your Adjust A Wings at the same distance as your other reflectors. Do you get hot spots with them? I really like the wings, but finding there is a definite area of too much intensity off to the edges of the reflector. Or perhaps I'm just not feeding strong enough with them. I've found that raising them up higher then usual the plants seem to be taking them better.

Is this your experience as well? I'm running mine on wide setting with the socket adjustment all the way down. No spreader.

I must say though, I HATE ADJUST A WING REFLECTORS.

lol, seriously though, such shitty spread. Your observation is spot on, the edges get blasted, while leaving the center and ends under lit, it probably would help raising them some and tightening up the spread, or just having a billion lights, but if I step up to the next level, its gavita all the way.


Given the choice I'd take a magnum xxl over the wings any day.

I like how you got this off the ground on a tight budget. I respect a scrappy thrown together run that pays off, that's what separates the men from the boys.

I like your canopy management, I don't run as deep of a canopy (12" maybe a bit more) but I usually run more bubba and la, I think I would do the same as you with that strain. I have a raskal cross that grows like that, I would fucking love to blow it up, but it's just not commercially viable, gotta keep looking.

Huge props for the canopy cleanup trick. I run mine similar, I clean before flip pretty much right up to the tips, give them a few days, flip them and then clean again about the same time 2.5-3 weeks.

Is the net killing you? I tend to run wall to wall also and the nets just did not reward me. Honestly until you have bobbed and weaved your way through a garden hour after hour week after week it's impossible to imagine. Tons of respect to you for getting it done and keeping shit clean, I know for a fact it's easy to fuck that off lol.

Keep up the good work man, if/when you do move, you should keep throwing up threads, would be interesting.

Gotta do what I gotta do while still getting through.

I'm kinda regretting not cutting them back more just because penetration is reduced from me a spreading them out to the max.

CHURCH!

I hate having to crouch and crawl, but i m trying to maximize, certainly not practical, and supposing I do scale up things are changing. Planning on 4'x30' beds with 2' paths between.

Thanks for the praise brother. I will show the goods in the future.

lake tahoe That's serious right there

Thanks brother, that gorilla bub you got rocking ain't too shabby either. ;)


Looks like a nice way to keep a place warm !

You could, though it takes extra equipment to capture the ridiculous amount of water this size canopy releases daily.

Nice Growroom, just a sea of Kushbuds ! :)

Yea , she's my main lady for now. I'm a bit of a recluse so I don't often get new genetics, unless I pop them. Id love to try some of the other og lines out there.

wow that Tahoe looks huge my cut was way smaller is it the norcal cut or from a seed?

This is a clone, I believe it was sourced from Colorado some years ago(8+), I've had it for about 4 myself. She definetly can yeild, but don't let her fool ya, the largest nuts will be 7 grams or so, most will be 1-3 grams, so good but not crazy huge.

Knotted up on day 35. Supreme work

She's an animal. Thanks bro.

I love a good monocrop, particularly when it is some bomb OG trees.

Hats off sir! :tiphat:

Peace

This is my first mono, and I don't think I'm going back. If I want variety I can alternate runs, or get more space and add rooms ;)

Thanks for rolling through.:dance013:

I gotta stop looking at this thread, I haven't seen any Tahoe worth smoking for at least a year out this way and it's not popular enough nowadays on this part of east coast with the chemdogs and whatnot. Can't wait to sample some of the real deal at the cup this year! keep it up dude

Lol, I've got to stop going downstairs and fingering the ladies. I've been out of flowers for a couple weeks now, and I'm smoking oil made from year old material that wasn't stored with humidity in mind, so its pretty bland and very dark.

Its Seriously taking all of my will as an experienced grower not to chop a week early, I know I'd regret it.
