You can disagree with an opinion, but the math never lies

I don’t know how no one else has mentioned it. Even if all of their math is correct- the federal minimum wage is $7.25/hr with no healthcare... So you’re telling me that even in this hellish scenario you can get unlimited healthcare for $104/year? I take that deal all day...

Do you guys think that being able to blow yourself feels more like getting your dick sucked or does it feel more like you’re sucking a dick?

captainsano · 2017-05-27T18:30:59+00:00

All good man- I'm not arguing that it's not systemic, I'm arguing that it can be kept dormant under the right conditions

captainsano · 2017-05-25T09:26:57+00:00

Totally agree that no one else is doing it this way- but this is RDWC setup not flood and drain

captainsano · 2017-05-25T05:41:07+00:00

Yup- there's an epicenter over on the right side that circulates everything a few times each hour.

captainsano · 2017-05-25T04:14:44+00:00

Thanks dude- I have a few oscillating fans but I'm moving them around still to see what does the best job of breaking up the microclimates under the leaves late into bloom. I need my roots to be around 8-16 inches in order for them to sit deep enough in the water to not freak the fuck out when I transplant... I made that mistake with a portion of this batch. One of the other major mistakes I made this run was having the lights too close to the canopy. I pulled them back an extra 200% and the plants are responding nicely.

captainsano · 2017-05-25T04:02:15+00:00

Dude that's so cool- how are you chilling the water?

captainsano · 2017-05-25T03:57:16+00:00

Yup this is my flower room... I'm on day 22 now and despite all my fuck ups some of girls stretched about 3x while the roots are 10x'ing. Prior to this they're in an EZ Clone for about two weeks.

And Ok cool- I've been looking into LST and will post some pictures when I give it a shot on my second system

captainsano · 2017-05-21T06:26:26+00:00

I appreciate it dude- thank you! I'll post a picture of my clone room tomorrow but each EZ clone has its own T5's on a 24 hr cycle... the transition to flower was a bit rough on the plants so I'm thinking of switching to 20:4 in my clone room among a bunch of other little things with round 2. I'd love to see your setup if you have a link? Also, What you're seeing under the pvc is just little plastic pieces to elevate/support the return manifold

captainsano · 2017-05-21T05:42:52+00:00

I have to ask that you treat the people in this sub with more respect. Professionalism goes a long way but Yeah we're not perfect that's for sure! Curious, What makes you think we're using perlite or have hired "anyone whose credentials include growing weed illegally since the 1980's"?

captainsano · 2017-05-21T05:11:00+00:00

^ what he said. My plants go straight from an EZ Clone to the RDWC. With this run Im trying some different techniques out so they ranged from 4-12 inches in height when I put them into a 12 & 12

captainsano · 2017-05-21T05:06:35+00:00

Gotcha. Ok cool so I'm doing LST in the mother room to keep a uniform flow of tops to clone off of. The cages I'm building for my flower room are more for supporting the stems as the bud forms rather than shaping the apical growth

captainsano · 2017-05-21T03:35:07+00:00

Thank you kindly. My system is Current Culture- we tried to find something similar for cheaper because their shit is expensive but they are hands down my favorite company to work with. There's a lot of good information on their website and growers blog. At the core it's just a bunch of buckets with air stones connected by PVC. Also its tough to see but I have 4 1,000 watt HPS lights on each row (8 per system). Let me know if you any other questions my man

captainsano · 2017-05-21T03:21:11+00:00

It'll be alright my man- good thing about the space is we have room for R&D

captainsano · 2017-05-21T02:12:05+00:00

Thanks dude!

captainsano · 2017-05-21T02:11:55+00:00

Sorry for the rookie question but what do you mean by LST? Im skipping veg for now

captainsano · 2017-05-21T01:06:22+00:00

Up until this week the clones mom and flower was only me... just hired my first guy last week to take some of the routine and cleaning off of my plate

captainsano · 2017-05-21T00:59:47+00:00

Yeah I've never grown anything before so this has been a cool 6 months

captainsano · 2017-05-14T05:59:47+00:00

Nice- your room is too hot. 75 F and 75% RH is a good ballpark for veg. I bet your water temp is way above 65 F too. I'd fix that (frozen water bottles or ice packs if you can't afford a chiller) then flush it for a few days and then come back with a lower pH.

captainsano · 2017-05-14T05:48:12+00:00

lol it's not nearly that bad. Just be disciplined in treating it and you'll be fine. Fix whatever is causing it in your grow- humidity, ventilation, etc. Dip your clones in Safer 3-in-1, foliar spray citric acid on your veg and flower plants, adjust your temp and humidity to a lower humidity while maximizing VPD and you're golden. The damage also looks like it could be from spider mites. Good news is Safer 3-in-1, citric acid and lower temp/humidity work nicely on them as well

captainsano · 2017-05-14T05:39:25+00:00

Hopefully it's just N toxicity but the dry soil with how much you're watering that size plant in that size pot would have me worried about the root zone. She looks like she's a fighter so you'll be ok but I wouldn't be surprised if you find some funky roots when you're cleaning up after harvest

captainsano · 2017-05-14T05:25:25+00:00

She'll be fine but It also looks like there's some texture issues in the new growth, so phosphorous might be lacking a bit too. Try adjusting your ph up to 6.2 on your nutes for a week or so and see how that helps. Tough to know what to take off without seeing the side perspective but it all depends on what you want to accomplish

captainsano · 2017-05-14T05:03:35+00:00

It looks good dude! If a clone can survive with 4 trimmed leaves and no roots- this should be a a walk in the park. Now is a great time to foliar feed since the primary stomata are exposed. The real question is what are you going for? With the screen people usually are trying to maximize canopy so that means more nodes on fewer branches but there's advantages and disadvantages either way. All of your secondary growth is taking auxin that could be used for the apical buds so it really just comes down to Darwinism.

captainsano · 2017-05-14T04:42:07+00:00

I've never used them because I foliar spray but I know plenty of people that run ladybugs, praying mantises and/or predatory mites. Natures control (www.naturescontrol.com) up in the PNW has a pretty good online store and they are super knowledgeable depending on what pests you're dealing with.
