Pipecarvers Pipes & things

[Zen_seeker]

sorry... stoney slang.... Rosin pressed flower, the left over smashed "chip" it leaves when done pressing. i like to grind em up and eat them with yogurt in the morning... best way to start your day!!! hehe

So just teasing us north of the border.

I thought it was something you bought.

 

[Zen_seeker]

LOL ...I've never tried it, I'm a joint smoker, hash, oil....bong is as exotic as I've gone. We used to Hot Knife back in the 60's -70's but that's about it. I wouldn't know where to start with all this new fangled stuff you youngsters use...lol.....

Yeah, shitty oil and hash was the best we could do. Bong was rare. Hot knives in the kitchen in the late 70’s. Then get in trouble for bending/heating the flatware.

10 of 11 seeds are up and growing 1 with a small tail looks like its failed, I can live with 10. I should get enough fems to keep me going in smoke. I have my 150w reptile heater and the heating pad to keep them warm and humidifier on full to keep humidity at 65%.

My flower tent is coming along nicely now. Something is funny though I only planted 2 strains 3 All GasOG and 3 Iced cream cake. It looks like I have 3 strain growing. I have 1 short Iced cream cake after 2 others hermied , 2 AllgasOG and 1 other that doesn't look close to the others with far more frost, less hairs and smaller tighter looking buds.

I'm now using KoolBloom dry at 1 /3tsp/gal and stopped using the liquid from 6 weeks through to 9 or 10 depending on the looks of them. My mix now is 5/3/3/8/1/3tsp/4/5/1 ml/gal...Cal/mag/Micro/Grow/Bloom/KBloom/Diamond Nectar/ Peroxide/Hyclean.

I've been running the reds for 15 min at lights out for a week. Now that the stretch is over I want to see what effect it has on the buds. I like what it does to the plants in veg for a short time and just before I flip them for a few days. I've not noticed anything unusual other than maybe longer stems on a lot leaves, making trimming easier.

Still only two seedlings up. Three seeds are in soil for 3 days so fingers crossed they come up by mid week.

Off to a good start as always PC. You keeping the cups properly labeled this time?

Do your SF LEDs also have red in them?

Oh yes they are labeled now. I'm pretty good at starting them with tags but its after transplanting into the 1 gal pots i've fked up. Not this time...lol I say that now.

Yes Spiderfarmer light have some reds but using only reds for 15 min at lights out seems to make my leaves healthier looking and wider. It may also bump up the size of the buds although possibly at the expense of them being looser and not as tight but I'm not seeing any indication they are doing that so far.

I got me a bug. Same as my wife I guess, slept all day, feeling like shit, bad cough,plugged nose, achy...flu/cold/cbug?? all same now. Still have to smoke though, Its not easy smoking and coughing and coughing and coughing but this dedicated mofo's can't let a little thing like being sick stop me

Your almost as bad as my wife. She’s worse as it’s cigarettes.

 

[Pipecarver]

Right.

No smoking yesterday, too sick, what ever it is i got id bad, won't be smoking to day either. its all i can do to say hi.

 

[steamroller]

Make some chicken soup and curl up in a blanket.
I might just do that and not even sick, just cold~!
Get well man.

Sorry to hear that, take it slow till you're both feeling better!

Not good my friend. I hope you guys are okay. At least the cold snap hasn’t hit you yet. Gives you a few extra days to get over it.

I know if your not smoking it’s pretty serious. I hope your wife’s feeling better. Otherwise the cats are going to be…anxious…if you’re both in bed. You might have a mutiny on your hands.

Ginger tea with honey and lemon will loosen up your tubes a bit. Breathing kettle steam also a good pallative. Take a whole clove of garlic, cut off the top and put it under your pillow. It may or may not help your cold but it will repel all the vampires in 'Scotia.

Thanks, yes were big on Ginger. All I can get in me is Tea, smoothies and soup. Wife hates Garlic, I love it but obviously don't have it very often. I shouldn't have stopped drinking in the new year, I'm sure Its partially responsible, Booze kills bugs and I'm booze free ATM.

I haven't seen too many Vampires here, not lately anyways, too fking cold it would freeze their bat wings off them-17c last night -12c now. I'll keep an eye out for them though, thanks for the heads up.

I'm still sick, this bug has me whipped out, No smoking now for 4-5 days, No coffee, mostly soup & tea. A bit better I guess today but concentrating, reading & typing is exhausting just trying to focus. I've been watching some grow video's of course and just saw this come up with info on Far reds and UV lighting I was interested in.

Sorry to hear that! I caught a respiratory flu in September of 21, as soon as I was sure it was coming on I started ivermectin early and it stopped it cold within 36 hours, the fever went from 101° to normal, and three or four days later I was fit as a fiddle again

I understand some folks think it's controversial, and I can respect that, however I swear by it. I just finished my yearly 7 day cycle about 2 weeks ago. It's easy to buy in the US, not sure about Canada

Sorry you guys are still feeling under the weather. Hospital has been flooded with cold and flu patients but so far nothing has been brought home.

The cold and damp has us bummed out. Only mandatory chores like laundry and cooking/cleaning are getting done this weekend. I’m trying to stay out of bed. Fighting with the city is getting to us.

I took a peek at your vid post and bookmarked it for later. Not sure if you follow that guys page or just liked his current post on the lighting.

" ivermectin " you mean that horse dewormer stuff Rogan went on about?...lol....not sure if its available here. All I've been taking is Neo Citran , A hot lemon cold/flue drink and Tylenol. The worst part of this is the copious amounts of snot, I can't sleep or breath while laying down. I have some Dristan nasal spray that dries it up for a few hours then I gag awake and cough my guts out...no fun.

I don't follow any of the guys but I've watched a number of the guys videos. There was some talk about the reds and UV lighting I thought was interesting. How far reds could be used with Auto's to help stretch them in the first few weeks of veg and that led UV lights are crap that burn out too fast because UV and plastic don't work well together.

 

[Zen_seeker]

All I've been taking is Neo Citran

I used to love that stuff when it first came out. Then years later it didn’t seem to work as well. Found out from a druggist later that they had cut back on the active ingredients.

I still use it but it’s not as good as it used to be.

Is ivermectin a controlled drug in Canada?


Ivermectin, a prescription drug product, is authorized for sale in Canada for the treatment of parasitic worm infections in humans, specifically intestinal strongyloidiasis and onchocerciasis, and should only be used for this purpose, under the supervision of a healthcare professional

That's the lame stream media spin, the reality is that Ivermectin won a Nobel prize. It's available for human consumption here, what I have is made in the USA too.

Jan 26th
I'm coming out of my hole, gee's sick sucks...lol I came down to add water to my humidifier in my 3x3 and check the girls flowering. Sat down and rolled 1 I feel much better now. Sick but high and sick fk for the last 4 days I haven't been high. Fixed...

Took some pics of my new crop at 8 weeks in flower today. The Ice Cream Cake is a beauty, smaller buds but very frosty. The 2 All Gas OG up front are looking good as well a different bud structure more of an Sativa look to them with more hair the the Ice Cream cake

My new crop looks like its going to lose a failure, Leaves are funky and not growing well. At transplant if it hasn't picked up I'll scrap it. Don't want to bother with another potential hermie. That'll leave me with 9 and 5 of them are regs.

 

[Stoneyluv]

glad to hear you're feeling better man!!!

 

[Pipecarver]

Jan 28, its always something, last night before lights out I was moving a light to give a better angle of it on my plants when I touched the fixture it was hot, Too hot to leave my fingers on it. I have a G3000 that all 4 of the bars are cooking it seems, all are very hot to touch, Its the fixture I cut in half to go up front in my 5x5. Its still working but I can't trust it so I guess I'll have to scrap it and get another. I'm looking at the SE4500 to go across the front of my tent in front of the 2- SE3000. The SE3000's are still cool and they are older lights.

 

[steamroller]

Wow always better safe than sorry.

I put the light in my cart, hoping for another 5-6% discount tomorrow from them, wtf I can use $20 and I've seen them do that in the past. I put my laser temp gun on my hot lights. 125F and 84f on the reg lights, a 40degree temp difference can't be good.

If you can understand him, lol He gets really excited and loves storms, a Cape Bretoner with a long line of fishermen in his family.

 

[Stoneyluv]

good call on turning that off.. 125 is too much.. might only be that much now but maybe much worst while your sleeping.. hope ya get that discount man!!

Jan 30 I just ordered a FC4000- EVO 320w to replace my G3000 that is too hot to use safely. I'm a Spiderfarmer fan but they don't have any of this size in stock and their price is +$30. Pretty well the same specs at less cost.

I've been adding 6 gal feed to my res every 2 days and its been 4 days since I've had to add more. I'm thinking they've stopped feeding slowing down is Okay.......but the water level isn't dropping????/ check my trays and all are dry...WTF...blockage in my lines, So I blew them all clean and started a new batch. Alls good now, no damage I caught it fast enough to prevent hanging plants.

I've transplanted my 3 fems & 2 regs with 4 more reg Triangle Death Skunk still to transplant. It looks like I have 6 Triangle Death Skunk Regs, 1 Critical Kush, 1 Ice Cream Cake and 1 Blackberry Moonshine / Whothefkknows from my last batch

 

[steamroller]

I run Mars Hydros.
Just don't wind up the cord to tight and make sure all connections are tight.
I think and so far have been proven correct that most issues with MH are user error.
I wound one cord tight and it caused trouble and one light had a loose connection that got too hot.
Now I pay attention to my cords and have no issues.

Yes that's the first thing I did when I found out my light was so hot. I checked all of my connections and ran my laser temp gun over them. all connections are cool but the aluminum frame holding the diodes is hot. So a new light is on the way.

Jan 30, Power failure tonight, out of nowhere bam no electricity. -12c with a bit of wind and supposed to drop to -17c overnight....My poor plants and cats,....... lights back on 2.5hrs later, whew. 2 generators and no gas, wasn't/not prepared. I gotta do better and get one ready to go it could have been a costly fk up. water pipes, pets and plants don't like -17c

 

[Pipecarver]

Jan 31, last nights power failure has my timers all out of whack, I'll reset at 8pm tonight, they'll be short 2.5 hrs tonight.

All plants have now been transplanted into 1/gal pots with 1 in a divided autopot and topped. My flowering girls are at 8.5 weeks so another 2 weeks and I'll start chopping. 1 Ice Cream cake is very sparkly, I've been getting 1 plant like this on each of my last 3 harvests, 1 plant stands out from the rest. They don't have the largest buds compared to the All Gas OG but make up for it in sparkle. The All gas og are growing, looking & smelling a lot like Sour diesel and they're nice producing plants. I really like the gas taste & can only hope it smokes and tastes gassy.

 

[Pipecarver]

Feb 3, 9 weeks in flower yesterday, I'll start chopping around 11 weeks. All gas OG and Ice Cream cake look great I wish I could smell something,

My new crop 6 Triangle Death Skunk, regs 1 Critical Kush, 1 Gassy Cream cake. 1 Blackberry Moonshine/?

 

[Pipecarver]

Feb 7
I transplanted 2 more Triangle Death Skunk into 1/2 autopots today. A bit of a mess they took a hit, The pots I'm transplanting out of are larger in diameter than the 1/2 pots they are going into and with my mix being perlite heavy the root mass didn't hold together well and I was a bit rough on both. I'd ordered the auto pot bases and I've used the first one in replace of clay balls. I still used some of the balls around my air dome. My 3" net pots are a bit smaller than official domes.

Good growth this week and their topped parts are showing. I was this close to topping again but there's so little greenery I'll let them go a few more days.

There's not a lot of change in my flowering buds, maybe a bit thicker but its hard to tell, 10 weeks tomorrow. My feed dropped to 2.5/2.5/2.5/4/4/5/1ml/gal.....Cal/Mag/Micro/ Grow/Bloom/Diamond Nectar/Peroxide/Hyclean

I used far reds for 1 week in my veg tent on for 15 min at lights out. Its enough to stretch them out and help widen their leaves. I had to shut off because they'd stretched enough. I'm also still using them in the flower tent on for 15 min at lights out, I'm not sure how its effecting them but I'm liking the results for sparkle, health and color they give the leaves and buds. Healthy is the word, longer in flower even with a weak feed I'm not getting much fade or degradation even on lower leaves.

 

[Pipecarver]

My new light came in today, I bought the Marshydro FC4000 EVO. It has more reds with a nice peak in the blue and red spectrum's a lot more color than the Spiderfarmer and some UV. I bought this light because my G3000, I'd cut into 2 pieces and laid them end to end was hot to the touch. I used my laser temp gun and it was 125f where as the SE3000's are just 85f. Too hot I thought so I bought another light.
Today I looked at a review of my new light and he used a temp gun to read it at 120 -124f across the bars and the driver at 140f wtf maybe my G3000 was working right after all........ sigh...maybe I'll use it as side lighting or the bars will still be good as a spare if one of my SE's bars burn out.
My new crop is coming along and it doesn't look like I shocked them too bad yesterday in transplanting
