Welcome to the Cave of Daily Mishaps

bit jealous about that temp and RH. my shit is currently at 71F and 89% RH. gotta figure out where to collect the drainage from the dehuey so it can just keep running and help on both accords. #basementlyfe

Well that 78° is only recent lol. For the last 3 months its been 70-72° and 60-67% rh. But then i shut my ac off cause it cooled off ao now the temps came back up.

I set my highs on the controller and turn the lows off cause if its low in the tent, my lung room is low too so no sense in running the lows ever.

I have to run a dehu IN my 4x4 during the spring/summer/fall months or i run 80%+ during lights off so i usually end up running 3 plants in the 4x4 all summer so that hurts too lol.

Any way you could have it drain into an 18 gallon tote outside the tent with a sump pump on a float to carry the water off?

that's always been my struggle too. i just can't sacrifice the floor space for the dehuey. so, they deal and i compensate by making it a fuckin wind tunnel in the tent lol mold can't grow if the air is super turbulent (so says me)

I got mildew back to back so now im terrified of humidity over 40% in flower🤣

funny you mention that. i was looking at the res for my dutch bucket system and thought, hmm. i could plus the drain to that, and get another pump and enough flex pipe to run out the door, just have to drain it once a day to avoid the flood.

great minds think alike.

I try to make things from what i have laying around and thats stuff i have laying around collecting dust so id put it to use lol.

I've thought about drilling a hole in my closet floor, running a hose down and just letting my dehu drip under my trailer so i dont have to dump a bucket twice a day.

i would 1000% not do that. you'll end up with a mold factory man. at least put a solid line running out to a short french drain that's not under the trailer. shit, you could easily make one out of 3/4" pipe. just remember to pull it out when you move your trailer haha

Thats the reason i havent done it yet lol.
I could totally leave whatever cause this thing isnt going anywhere lol. I dont have the title🤣🤣🤣
 
Just built a "scrog table" View attachment 24142
Used an old camp chair that was busted and half of an old crib frame🤣🤣

Gonna try this shit one more time @CannaGranny

Gotta clean this tent and pop a bean for in here, then a few weeks later ill smash it.
Glad you did it. Get some jarred. Backup plan for when shit goes wrong. Wasn’t sure about the camp chair but now I see it 👍.
 
I gotta say the lawn chair scrog net is pretty genius! Was it Zen that dried his plant by leaving the scrog net on and just turning it upside down?🧐
Guilty, but stole that idea from CG hanging table.

One of the best things about this site is how we share and modify things to meet our needs. A suggestion that doesn’t work for me might be perfect for another with a similar issue.

I’d love to buy or maintain a perfect greenhouse or lab but I like heat and food more. 😝 The safe and reasonable DIY or substitutions are what really save me $$$.

I’m of the school no dumb questions.
 
it's doable though! there's no reason you can't with proper environment and plant control.
I keep telling him if I can do it he can. If I’m limping over the finish line he should be able to hurtle it. 🤣
It’s not like he doesn’t have support if he needs/wants it. 🤷‍♂️

This time of year…he’s got this. 👍

You got a whole lot of faith in this lazy ass stoner.....
This is attempt 4 and im not holding out much hope
 
so, you want to go inverse actually. Say your lights on temp is 77F, bump that lights off temp to 80F-82F. you only need to do this during the stretch period, so day 0 - 21. i'm no expert but from what I've seen in the handful of growers that have done it, the technique almost all but eliminates internodal stretch.
I’ve observed this with Twin1&2 along with Solo. Once temps and humidity get out of my control this can happen and make nodes stack too tightly. Leaves every where.
 
that's part of why i stopped bothering with scrogs. getting the net to stay put without using some kind of seriously rigid material was always my problem. we don't give plants enough credit for how ridiculously stubborn and strong they are.
Use weight like I did for my outdoor. The two sticks could be replaced with four weights but I like the sticks better for a flatter top. Weights would be more mushroom top.

Listen asshat. We’ve been talking and helping each other for over a year now. The difference is I’m acting on it more. This isn’t over a hill 1/4 mile in the woods. It’s 20’ down the hall. No reason you can’t tend to it while doing your normal day.

And stop saying you can’t do shit. Do or do not….

I’m on your side bud. Now just do it already. 🤣👍

Yeah i dont have a lot of hope for scrog. Ive fucked it up 3 times so im sure there will be a 4th, 5th, 6th, 10th time i fuck it up.

If you expect the worst and act like you failed from the start…what’s the point?
 
You been doing good on the growing you got it g$. Ain't too often a married guy gets to smash another lady! Giver the hulk smash!
 
Its a rain forest in here yall!!!20231009_181858.jpg
3 more treatments just to be safe and the bugs will be gone.
Then ill get back on my weekly IPM.

Pyganic and Dr. Zymes for the win!!
Dr. Zymes didnt do shit for the mildew i had originally bought it for, but it works wonders on bugs at 4oz per gallon!!

I highly recommend the two.

He'll be fine. He'll go in kicking and screaming but once he sees sparkly flower filling the tent he'll swear by it! :ROFLMAO:

@GoodShit97 - Yer psyching yourself out. As long as you follow what you did last time, as far as plant health, the screen will just be there to give you a hand. There really is no difference in skill level other than a few tips here or there.

Im sure ill figure it out, but the only i learn is by doing, so i expect fuck ups along the way.
Not saying i cant do it, just pretty positive im gonna fuck it up somewhere lmao.
 
6 more days and the front 2 plants are going to the 4x4 for flower, and the rest of the plants in here will be getting flipped to flower as well. 20231014_113843.jpgThatll give me 10 plants in flower. Gotta get shit back on track, im tired of running out of weed.
4x4 will be all 5 gallon pots, the 3x3 will be all 1 gallon pots.
