Byeeeee

Superb!

I love the cage- very little fing around with stakes and stuff, just lean em up against the fence and relax

.

It would be very easy to rig a cooltube for max cooling as well.

4 plants..20+.. wow!

How tall do they get? How big are they when you flip them? Do you veg them in this too? The fan is hanging off the bottom of the cage shooting up?

Nice work Bush Dr.

Is that just a normal fan or is that one of those Rucks (inline fan)?

Damn dude... that is a brilliant idea. It seems to simple

Ok...if you were doing this, would you hang a couple of lights in a room if you wanted to do more plants? Maybe its better to just do 4 at a time? We've been looking at a lumetek digital ballast and a dual would be pretty kewl.

Karmatrain looks NICE.

I was wondering about the rotating them.. I would have been tempted to do that so thanks.

Everytime I come in here and see that I go...

Love the set up.

my first and only grow i had a similar deal going but with CFLs, and it was a bit more ghetto then your set up no doubt. Worked great though. I had the long 100 watt cfls with individual cages on them, hung vertically. You could lean the fuckers right on the plant and not worry about burns.
The idea of yours i love is the not needing a reflector. Thats freaking genius...I will Definitely be using that concept, Thank you very much

Ive never used hps but That screened off lighting method is the way to go with CFLs as im pretty sure light from florescent bulbs, while a good spectrum, degrades over just a very short distance.
A caged in bulb lets you get the light as close as possible.

Id love to see more people using these high wattage CFLs, as they work like a fucking charm and give ya plenty of room to experiment. 0 heat too.

Ive been saying "ima get the grow goin again this week" for months now... hopefully ill get it going soon

Well, since I can see how the wind is blowing here would you mind posting up a slight tutorial for me?
LOL
The numbers and growth are fantastic.

Incredible.

Thanks.

farmergiles · 12-21-2010, 02:55 PM

I wish I'd seen this before I bought the pesky light mover...

What nutes you got them on B Doc? That's some mega yield figures and they plants look tip top.

Captain Cannabis · 12-22-2010, 01:55 AM

cool idea

moar pictures

Dandaweedman · 12-22-2010, 04:25 AM

You can do 8 plants in that tent? What yield difference are you finding between the gallon and an arf and the gallon pots?
"drain to waste"? I am assuming this means it goes right down the drain? add duh to the end of this sentence if required

I guess I am wondering why not recirculate? Better for the enviroment type a deal.

Bush Dr · 12-22-2010, 10:29 AM

Just put part 2 in the 'tutorial'

Dandaweedman · 12-23-2010, 04:01 AM

Thanks Doc

Make me want to see if our Dirty Harry will make a go of it.

Those are some cool temps, I think a soil grow would yield a block of ice.

It's so cold I'm using an ET05 'stat and fan heater.

I hate to throw money away on heating but the alternatives are worse, they put on a spurt within 2 nights of installation.

Dandaweedman · 12-24-2010, 04:12 AM

Yeah, got them from Mota a long while back.
It's on the list to run in the near future.
I've had a couple of his crosses smoke like that. Pain in the arse having to tear off the solid end to relight.
You need a vape doc, it changes the stone some but at least you would be able to hit it

With soil your plants would already be dead for sure.
Do you need the tds meter and all the stuff that normally goes along with hydro?
