Sun of a Peach, it's Hydroponics SCROG

[Stoneyluv]

Looks like they took my offer and already shipped it or at least made a shipping label! They asked $170.
MSRP was over $400 but the outlaw price was only $150...$173 and change after taxes and shipping

an update for the week...

lights are about to come on so a tune for that...

just finished week four of flower and i have adjusted my light timer to 11 hours on and 13 hours off. the plants have grown slightly into the minimum height away and don't want tp pound them to much. also a few days ago i added in some bloom booster. about 60% of a full recommended dose. no ill effects, also haven't noticed anything positive either so eh.. maybe over rated, maybe poor envirement.

not much else to report in on.. i'm currently fighting a high RH level and working to get it lower but for now i wish i could get them sweating a bit more. other than that we're on auto pilot here and nothing really left to do but watch the grass grow..

some pics..






thanks for lookin in!!!!!!!! have a great week everybody!!!!!!!!!

You might be able to combat some of the humidity by going to town along the screen removing fan leaves like a muhfucker. Plants don't need them suckers and, with the scrog, there will inevitably be leaves on leaves that create little dew pockets.

yea you're right it would help. and does have dew. they could stand to lose a few pounds in leaves.

i've been busy/lazy/forgetful lately.. my lung room is out of control at the moment so that doesn't help any. but i just spent a solid twenty minutes on them and plucked a good third of the screen free. ( the easy first third that is super easy to reach!! haha)

i plucked some more.. i feel like a real mutha plucker!!!!





i was sticky up to my freakin elbows!!!! i grabbed the broom and didn't need to grip the handle it just stuck!!! hahaha i had to oil and wash my hands and arms, that felt weird!! haha

plants are drinking like sailors right now, top off ring keeps getting bigger!!!! PPM's went down about 50 and getting a slight increase in ph. this is new ever since i added the bloom booster i guess this kind of tells me they liked it and i can add a little more and will go to a full dose on my next change out. for now i'll add a little extra extra to the top off and let it sip on some hot stuff till then.

Week update...

just finishing up week five of flower.. i'm going to turn the light timer down to just 10 hours on and 14 hours off. lights are at max height and i see a little bleaching.. not bad, but something i may need to address after this grow.

had my first issue yesterday.. my float switch for my topoff pump stuck closed and pumped in about five gallons to much. i'm glad i caught it before it overflowed but this is now the second time it failed the same way so not a glitch but a problem.

seems fine when i play around with it but for some reason that barrel didn't float up and stuck down. i've used these type of floats all my life and this might be the first time i had one fail like that. this was a brand new float i put in when i built this new setup so i took it out and put the one that was in there for over a year and didn't fail... for now i pumped the extra solution in a five gallon bucket and am letting it sip from there so it can't overfill for now in case it fails again till i test it out more. the water level was into the netcups!! everything got a good enzyme wash!! haha



don't tell the plants there was an issue... they'd never know it!!!! haha

been drinking P-K like koolaid,, i've been kinda chasing the food for almost two weeks. every time i think i give them enough they eat it right up!! change out gonna happen tonight or tomorrow...





Peachy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now go back and do that again. You should be able to look at the top of your cola and see light penetration all the way to your table top. No exfoliating after week 3.5.
