@Anthem275 is sending me a clone this week. He’s ducking letting me pay him for it. 👎

I put in 68% packs tonight and I’ll go again this weekend. Try one thing at a time so I know what does what. I’d like to get this figured out for this Han Solo harvest. It’s very very sticky. If I can’t do well with the press on this I need to give it up.

Why did you switch to bags?

Mostly cuz I could more with prepressing - not sure why bu I feel I get a better product without the prepress - I do still use my round pre press occasionally but the rectangle hit the trash bin simply because of return - I think I’m out of bags I’ll look today and show you my process - I believe pressing is a art ? Little science but more feel ? I know ur a factual guy , I just don’t have em ! Lol

I'm OK with art! I agree with that.

Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events


Today's Tom Sawyer, he gets high on you
And the space he invades, he gets by on you

No, his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is

A little background music for my peeps that seems fitting to where we are today.

Thanks brother man. Been working on and tweaking for many years. Started in a 3x4 space at first and realized that is not ganja worthy. Been adding on ever since, and brought these 2 main tents online with AC and CO2 in 2017.

I really like being able to pinpoint any environmental variable I want. It has helped me learn a lot about what really causes what. My new favorite thing is the dehumidifier. In a sealed grow due to CO2, the ability to remove all the water the plant drinks and maintain a 50% RH has been elusive for me in the past on big plants, especially at lights out. That new dehuey kicks the shit out of that problem. And does not put the heat in the tent. Ducted in and out to keep it sealed, and the radiator / cooling side happens in the lung room.

I also love the lights and the control. They have been nothing but solid for me, unfortunately @SweetLeafGrow cannot say the same for these Kush IIs.

My biggest pita is plant count these days. Being public with my grows, I need to keep it legit. I've got several tents I don't even use any more because of that. People offering me fire clones, and I just can't take them and stay in my counts. Frustrating.

I'm thinking hard about injecting O2 in the root zone on 4 of these 8 soil plants to see what happens.

How do you have your dehu sealed and ducted? My dehu (Ideal Air 50 pint) has a damn GREEN AURA light coming from the led screen so i have to take it out of the room at night and run it as a lung room, resulting in a spike to like 63% at night until it settles at like 56%. Would much rather run it inside the room but the light baffle i made restricts the airflow too much and i dont wanna fuck up its motor.
 
I should point out that when i say green aura, I mean the light from the led screen, even if i tape over it, emits a dim green light through the intake in the front, a very obvious light leak. Like really ideal air? Growing climate solutions WITH AN LED YOU CANT TURN OFF? 🤣🤣🤣

You haven’t a night time button on the dehuey bud…maybe pull it apart and cut the green wire…or was it the red one 😆.
 
ZombieRider said:
Nah no nighty night button unfortunately lol. I will try and see if someone has managed to turn off that damned led somewhere.

I open my tech up. But I’ve done that all my life. New or old got to open it up and improve, mod, or fix.

Every dam thing comes with disco lights these days. Not here anymore. I either add a switch, remove it, or tape it inside so no glow. (Only LEDs)

Since you like to tinker with your tech you could find the neg wire that goes to the light and add a small momentary button to switch the light on and off?

Only if it’s worth my time or I care about it do I modify or remove, and then I try to be clean and measure twice. Still change plans mid build sometimes. But only if a better idea, parts issue, or later flaw is found.

I put a proper hidden toggle switch on this light so it can be turned off/on independent of the rest. Same thing.

Nicer the item or the more importance the better the quality. I used to be a perfectionist but a gold plated toilet I get is over kill now. 🤣

Electrical tape and a tuck to the side works fine and doesn’t void warranty either. If I know it’s not going back then it depends how much it bugs me. 🤷‍♂️
 
Is the above pic okay? See on/off. Trying to save data again. I burn through it here. 😝

Edit: we should move out of Moe’s.
Need to charge phone. Back in a bit.

I came upon this quote today while I was searching about % of Gypsom per gal soil mix..."

" I use a ratio of 6:5:3 (calcium carbonate, soft rock phosphate, gypsum) (about 1 cup of gypsum per 1/3 bale of promix). This really helps bump up my brix numbers and get the soil thriving.

Can be used as a topdress (about 2 tbsp per 5 gallon pot) or mixxed into the soil and cooked for a few weeks."


Its the comment on Brix numbers that took my note and the effect the 3 have on his soil...its from 2014 grass city

What’s going on there Moe..is there 2 different medias your using..they look healthy and phaat.that wave on the leaf ..is that because of light intensity ..I get it half the time and when I move the light up they get better.but I’m still not sure whether it’s that or as they get older it goes ..like they can take more ppfd or something..

Yeah the plant in flower is in RDWC. The others are my first dirt grow.

The flowering plant I had some issues with. I did high PPFD on purpose to test the bleaching. During this, I left my CO2 off for 3 days by mistake, and came home to all that taco stuff. I corrected the issues, but the leaves never relaxed. Pushing too hard and the environment (CO2 in this case) was not there to support the energy level.

If I was growing under normal PPFD I would have been fine. The lower parts of the plant are not tacoed.
