Kuwl...... MH FC 8000 EVO + 6 Plants

My first thought was Ravens, we have them here but its not a Raven, 3 times thye size of our crows.It has thick lower legs I think like steam says a Turkey Vulture. We don't see them here but I've seen them down south, Graceful fliers,
Ugly big birds but huge wing span I think it's over 5 feet now that I seen em take off.
 
I tried out the far reds last night and this morning 15m/15m before and after and wow.
I seen a difference this morning when I went in to set up the new de-hue.
They were perky, praying to the light god. Might have grown or stretched a bit too!
I raised the light another 2", everything running smooth. (Famous last words)
IMG_6452.JPG
The new de-hue is working great. It has a occilating fan feature that helps the air mix and spreads out the residule heat.
I took off the box/duct that I taped on, to see if the occilation would keep the temp at least steady and not rising.
Seems it did and steady at 81 degrees. Set at 45% it is keeping the RH at 47.6% which is really good
cause it's raining here with outside humidity at 62% with outside temp at 74F.
The old de-hue would only get it down to 49% +-1 set at 35%.
Rain all week n temps above normal @ mid 70's.

I over did the nutes at first then seen the charts right on the gal. jugs that were quite dif from what I've been doing.
Surprized I did not screw this whole grow up.
No Burn, even tho I was using 50% higher than I should have haha.
I did that on the last grow too but it turned out fine!
Now I am going what each jug says to put in. Not sure why they didn't burn up tho.
There was some burning on the very bottom fan leaves but it never crawled up the rest of the plant.
Maybe I got some Majic Mojo going, haha, What ever it is, I am enjoying this grow very much.

Ha ha, you can see the diff after just one night, I've been saying that and it just gets shrugged off as if I'm seeing things with rose colored glasses. It does make a diff doesn't it? Fking amazing really how much and how fast. I'm glad you saw the same thing and its not just my mental state....lol.... 1 week in veg has been all I've been able to use them for and now in late flower,. Although after what I did today they may stay on a bit longerMay 13 bend.JPG

May 13 bend group.JPG
 
You bend those lil guys down early. I always want to but ...... never manage to remember.
I like those dividers, I got one set, just to see if they fit and they did not, not with the air dome in there.
Maybe next grow, this fall. 8 plants in 4 pots sounds good to me.
Ya I got a bit aggressive early, with the Far reds on they shoot up so fast I wanted to keep them down. I was going to try mainlining but I couldn't chop the tops off so I pinched and bent, Should be interesting when I get down there to see how they made out through the night.

With one of the dividers I added some hose I cut down the center and slid it over the sides of the dividers to make the plastic sheets tighter to the pots sides. It works well & I should do that to the others next time to separate the 2 cells a bit better. With the airdome bases I covered them with soil before adding the dividers so they sit flat on the bottom of the pot.
 
2nd Week in Flower
Everything good except, seems there is always an except or a but, lol, for the darn humidity.
Weather bug says its 93% outside and not raining.
Fighting it all day yesterday and some today.
Running at 58-63% so I messed with it till I found a problem with the short drain hose.
I was dumping into a gutter type drain that goes along the cellar floor near the walls to the main cellar drain.
Problem is the hose was draining in the gutter but still inside the room.
I put an extension on from the old humidifier so it extended under the wall and out of the room to drain.
Down to 51.8% with Temp @ 82.4F

Took out the small helper fan and put in the 4" SF fan.
Put one 6" fan on the floor to cool off the pots.
Temp in the pot resivour was 80 at the time last night, at 77 this morning.
Rez tank temp 71, got a gallon jug frozen to put in it.
Should get much better but it's a sign of what's to come.
Defoiled a bit but just the light blocker leaves and most fan leaves
Keeping the Far Reds on till week 3 then will take them out and put in the other Reds, they will be on the same cycle as the Main Light.
Turned the light up to 85% from 82% and raised it a bit. Lux 60-65k varies but that is on the high end.
IMG_6461.JPGIMG_6462.JPG

I liked those stake clips I seen online the other day but it gave me the idea to do the same but using ties and other things to clip together the stakes.
It should give them a place to lean on or tie off on, better than sticking them in the pots and I can raise, lower and make adjustments.
Need a few more. Home Depot delivers for free!! I'll have to check as I just thought of that.
IMG_6457.JPG

Since I started using Drip Clean (not Hyclean) I noticed my water getting cloudy so not gonna use it anymore.
They are drinking very well and I might start the PK soon. I want to let the tanks empty out more so I can clean them.
Start fresh with the new mix.
I have not checked or used any PH up or down this grow and no problems at all.

Yes, I like how they’re all standing up like that. It’s about time. Things are going right. It’s been about five or six years since I started this shit.
I think this is the first time, two weeks into flower n Ihaven’t had a major problem of some sort. Maybe it’s just that I don’t panic and I kinda know how to handle the problems now.
Vodka for me and I have put olives in and it’s pretty good. Don’t have any olives now so straight up vodka and once in a while a good shot of bourbon.
We watch wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy as soon as it starts we get our drinks and sit and watch them while we drink.
She likes Kahlúa and milk with ice and for me it’s vodka and beers.

Bourbon? 1 new years eve in Waikiki Hawaii 1978-79 was my only experience with too much Bourbon....I've sipped since but never have I been that blitzed, I haven't ever just drank there's always been pot involved as well but I had bad influences around me where ever I went it seems and running naked through the hotels on Kalakaua blvd drunk as fk is not a great idea at the best of times new years eve?? as I said bad influences....just swimming would have been a better idea but oh no the cops just have to get involved...no big issue just puking in a cell in Honolulu was the worst of it and being dumped out at 6am about 10 miles from where I was staying

My memories from that time zone are few and far between haha Once woke up on a rock in the gorge n the water was rising we had to swim to shore. 10 more mins and well, not good.
 
Not much happening here.
Plants are doing well w/no probs.
cranking up the light to 95% then I'm all in @ 100% later next week.
Hoping for more bud sites :)
I want to see what this light can do but will turn it down as the weeks go bye.
De-foliating some just to let some light down there and maybe help out with the high hummi too.
2 Fans running 24/7 One aimed high and one low for the pots.
A cool week ahead so no worries about heat. Rain for the next few days here.
Intake fan off, Exhaust fan on lvl 2 Temp in room 81.7 - RH 45.5%

They drinking heavy now, filled the tanks after clean out, put fresh nutes in and was down 4 gal. today.
Mars Pro App broke (The app I use for the Controller 43 box) today but Mushi sent me directions to reset and it fixed it
but I still told about Sunrise/Sunset problem.
I am hoping they will send a new unit or give me clear directions on enabling it.
I brought it Nov. so still covered I think.

Got to pet Ghost yesterday but she hated it.
I cornered her in my bathroom, shut the door and window to the catio.
She pannicked and backed between the window and chest of drawers.
I was cautious and started to pet her head. She let me all the while starring at me.
Not a happy cat. No purring. I kept it up and stroked her back.
Petting her head again, she turned and took a quick but calculated bite on my hand.
Not hard but it scared me and I pulled back my hand.
She bolted for the door. Hissed at me as I tried to calm her.
I opened the door and let her out.
HAhahaha. That was something lol.
I don't thing she is holding a grudge as she scurries away, when I approach, same as always
 
Reduced the light to 95%. Reducing another 5% this Sat.
Changed the nute mix back to what I was using previously. 19ml Core/32ml Bloom per gal.
Going to turn off the far reds this Sat (4th wk flowr)
Might turn on the other reds 12/12 like the main light, maybe.

Still no Sunrise/Sunset even tho Mushi is helping but I think the dam controller is broke.
Extention wire they gave me never worked RJ12 and Par device was broke also but they sent new one that did work.
So I think this was a bad controller 43, a defect, but they having trouble finding my registration, so tough luck, I guess.

Then the plants started showing signs of a mag deficiency. Threw in more Cal/Mag and a tsp of Epsom salts.
I should have remembered the Epsom salts trick but forgot.
I forget a lot lately.:ROFLMAO:
I will start to reduce that amount @ maybe wk 5 or 6 depends how it goes.
Using Athena Pro so you buy the 3 bottle kit but cannot purchase seperately.
That means I got to buy a dry 10lb. bag of Bloom for about $77.00 ouch!
Bloom gets eaten up fast at 32ml per gal.
I used that feed method (19ml Core / 32ml Bloom) all the way through flowering the last single plant grow and it worked fine.
This time I'm adding PK and Cal/Mag to the mix of Core/Boom.
I'm not sure it needs it but I have them so wth why not.

New Humidifier working great, a little better than the old one.
Keeps it down under 50% most of the time and usually at 46%.

Wife went to Roswell today, It's a tough day.

Once I finish Sealing the fence, if the fkn weather ever cooperates and stops rainiing for a few days so it dries out.
Then move the 8x10 shed over to the corner of my yard, I will be done and I'm officially retired.
I'm only cutting the grass and that's it. ;smoke🍻 ;haf

Caught Ghost eating Sky's food haha.
They like the Catio cage a lot and wait for me to get up and open it.
Then out they go.
Ghost howls a lot and Idk why. Wakes me up sometimes but most of the time I think she is calling
for Shady, who she really likes.🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛
IMG_6476.JPG
She watches and waits for me to go to the bathroom, then strikes and my joint is gone when I return.
IMG_6477.JPG
I think it was the chicken topping she was after

I just got my garden stakes but have yet to put them up but will when the plants get heavier.
IMG_6485.JPG

IMG_6484.JPG
Mag deficiency? It pretty much got worse when I changed the feed to 12/12 from 19/32. So that's why I changed back. Hopefully that will work.
IMG_6478.JPG
 
I ordered the stakes @ 20 pieces for $29 = $1.45 per stake, so not to bad.
I also got those connector clips and they work really good.
So I ordered another pack of 10 from Home Depot for $7.36 Free shipping too.
IMG_6500.JPG
Got some seeds for next grow
Got 4 Afghan Hawaiian x Laos x Jamaican Fem - 4 pk + 4 Free Runtz Fem
$55 + $10 shipping
Seed Supreme

Took out the Far Reds and started the Deep Reds.
Defoilated a bit and set the stakes up.
IMG_6497.JPG
Moving the shed little by little
Very hard and time consuming.
IMG_6502.JPG
Trying to figure out who is who lol
Forgot to tag them when I transplanted.
I think the 2 in the back are LSD, the short one, front right, should be Blue Dream.
The one next to BD might be White Truffle
Then there is another BD and where is that Blue God hahaha

How many times have you moved that shed? 3-4 times since I've known you...lol...The first I've seen of the new double sized back yard...very nice. Where's your Green house? & where are you putting the shed?

The clips make your trellising more versatile. eh

Far red and deep red too now, nice I'll have to look see what the difference is.....I just ordered a green light
1748645112496.png This versatile light bar also pairs with fixtures that use blue and red diodes to expand spectrum coverage and improve overall light quality. Each bar is built for growing environments,
Supplementally supports blue and red LED grow lights to enhance their spectrum coverage....well so they say....wifes going to freak when I say there's a Deep red light I'm looking at....lol

This shed has never been moved until now.
It was built before I brought the property next-door.
So now, to better the view, I’m moving it to the left corner up there on those panels, from the old Fence.
The white shed is next to the greenhouse in the back side of the yard next to the house.

I’ll get some pics tomorrow

Oh okay, I thought you'd moved it yearly, my grey matter said different. I have a friend back home in B.C. that moved her furniture once twice every year just for a different look, Should I say we moved her furniture. I was thinking you may have some of her gene's. I was sure you'd moved it in the past....lol

Heck no, it’s to heavy to move myself.
The smaller white shed was a breeze compared to this 8x12 I have to take out the plywood flooring today to make it lighter.
IMG_6504.jpeg
Going in this spot but might move the fence panels out and set it on the dirt, will be easier, I think.
IMG_6505.jpeg
This is where I put the smaller white shed n green house.
IMG_6503.jpeg
Soon as I get my Daughter’s junk out we are going to grow some veggies in it.
Any day now.

I just saw this...Yikes Bear country
