Welcome To My Grow !!! I need some RIU Credibility / Rep ... so don't be stingy ye 'ol bastards !!!

Okay, so Picture 1 is just a shot of the seed/clone/veg setup in a 10' by 10'ish room. Primarily two shelves for plants with a total of (12) 4' two bulb flourescent fixtures. In pic you see a humidifier and a sample of how i clone: the blue cup with a clear cup on top for a humidity dome (though i actually use styrofoam on bottom and have to trim the top lip off the clear cup so that it nests inside the styrofoam one. I use M.G. Seed Starting Mix and Dip 'N Grow. Not pictured, but also in this room is, a 44 gal. reservoir up on a third shelf and a 100 gal. per day Reverse Osmosis system. A 330 h.p. submersible pump fills a water hose that goes into the next room.

Picture 2: (Flower Room) Be scared, be very scared. The scariest thing is that all 6 of these Romex strands (indoor romex) travel underground (w/o conduit) and up into the electric box where they are all connected to a dual pole 100 amp breaker (3 per pole). Aside from the power strip attached to each one, there is no smaller breaker between the 100 amp breaker and the equipment. This takes care of all my electric except for a cord that i ran in for the de-humidifier.

Picture 3: (The Money Shot) Four CoolTubes (two 6" and two 8") on 6" insulated ducting, 2 inline GrowBright fans (52 dB), a oscillating fan in 3 of 4 corners. The clones and mothers are on makeshift plywood still in 16 oz. cups over the awaiting Hempy Buckets (3 gal.) The ballasts are located under the house.

Picture 4: Close-up of watering wand on garden hose, takes about 10 minutes to water the 99 buckets.

Picture 5: DIY carbon filter (Top Down: 6" to 8" reducer, 8" inline fan with thermostat attached to side, a 90 degree 'elbow' that is straight and some aluminum screen which holds about a 2" layer of carbon.)

Picture 6: 65 qt. dehumidifier. May also have to get a portable a.c. unit come summertime.

Picture 7: Ozone Generator for primary odor control. Lamp timer allows for up to 20 on/off settings per day, by the minute. Currently running 10 minutes each hour 20 out of 24 hours.

Picture 8: Just a closer up picture of about 50 clones. There are just beginning to recover from a serious pH problem. I quickly accidified the soil trying to use straight 5.6 pH'd nutes (G.H.) in the 16 oz. cups (without raising the pH of the water to around 6.3). They are doing much better now that i have pulled my head out of my ass.

Thanks for looking !!! I'll try to get an update shortly after putting them each in their own bucket. Which they are due for right now. I let the clones go too long without topping, so right now they are all a bunch of sticks... and I like to grow bushes!

Il pulling up a chair for this one. Very nicely put together man! I am liking it a lot. Wish I had the space you do. I would go nuts though!

Check out my grow getting started; Hempy, Automatic flowering, Lucas Formula, Perpetual Harvest

Updates????

Brought to you by demand

The clones (and mothers) are starting to get a bit of lush green vegatative growth since being transplanted four days ago (roughly coinciding with finally get the pH under control again - having overyly acidified the soil in the 16 oz. cups).

Some are spurting up a bit, others still hardly any growth since transplant, so i went thru today and crushed/and bent the tips on the taller plants as well as crushing the stem in several places from middling to top. I noticed that one of my plants had a very crushed stem that basically grew together 'flat' in a 'stem ribbon'... and that vertical growth had basically stopped on that plant. So i am trying to mimic this effect to a degree.

They are filling out a bit for the most part, I topped the clones late and now i have to wait for them to bush out a bit before going 12/12. I'd guess i will be another 1 and 1/2 weeks at least before i switch.

thanks for peeping. I tried to color correct the photos a bit, hopefully the pics will be much better after switching to flower, as i am currently loathe to turn off the lights for pictures.

(3 gal. 'car wash' buckets in 2 areas of 5 by 10 pots, with one corner pot missing.)

thankee.

add the following to the list of needed items (almost finished using these):

(4) 5 gal. buckets of exterior paint
400 dollars worth of exterior shutters
and lotsa 'pink stuff' insulation batting (sound control) and i still need more of this

don't want my house to be the ugliest one on the block



(EDIT) the stem crushing deffinitely seems to be working... the vertical growth seems to slow a great deal, and the spacing between nodes is significantly lessened. its like what the branches and tips are still doing their growing, but any vertical growth energy is instead spent on repair work to the damaged main stem. (multiple crush points from 1/3 toward bottom on up).
