King's Operation Midnight Landing

Hey King, sucks about the mites. At least you have a couple plants to care for and hopefully harvest. Cheers.

From one stg grower to another I hope you keep posting!, it's always nice to see pics for other STG grows.

I'm using Hail & Tornado inserts in my DIY undercurrents.

Thanks man. Yeah STG is legit. I like it more than rockwool, but no hydro shops carry it!

Mites do suck. Majorly. The new box we're making is specifically designed to prevent ANY contaminants from entering the room. And yeah the two soil ones, which are both Black Pearl's, are huge and will give us more than all the other ones combined. And I'm babying them to make sure they make it to harvest

Little update here with a few pics.

We've been building a much larger frame/box than we were using before. It went from being 4 wide x 8 long x 7.5 high, to 6 wide x 10 long x 7.5 high.



As you can see, I've still got to finish getting some plywood up, and from there, there is still a lot to do...but that's part of the fun






The two Black Pearl's are looking good! Very dense nugs, and stanky too. They've been watching me and the homie build their new pad

Oh also, this is a good pic to note the differences in LED lights vs HPS/HID. The girl on the left was the largest one this round and it was under the LED light more than any other plant. Notice how much leafier she is than the same strain on the right side. That is one of the main differences between LED's and HPS, (from my personal experience, and here is empirical proof)



Veggin's are still rollin, but I'm planning on bringing in a pretty much new set of clones to grow with for the next round.

That's it for now

I've been working a ton on the new grow area. It's finally coming together to where it's looking almost finished. Check out the new pics.












This pic is actually a movie if you click on it, I apologize for the shotty quality, I was using my phone.

After filming that video I chopped about four or five branches of one of the Black Pearl girls who's nugs in my opinion were done. They're hanging outside of the box now.

Thanks man! Haha and good call with the cheech .gif thingy

I've been hard at work building my room the way I want it - impossible (at least relatively unlikely) for any bugs or mold to get in. It's a 10' long x 6' wide x 7.5' high box, with at least two layers of 4mil black plastic sealing the inside - panda film for light reflection adds another layer of plastic on 2/3 walls. Although it isn't in any of the pics, I also have a dividing layer of panda film 4' in from the front, separating veg and flower rooms. (Hence, my flower room is 6'x6' and veg is 4'x6'). My LED's are going to hang on each side of the HPS in flower, as they unquestionably (in my opinion, based on past grows) add crystals and potency to the flowers...just not the bulk, which is what the HPS is for


Door Closed, front of box.


Door open


Inside is currently not complete, but it's so close I can taste it
*Note that I'm getting some Hindu Kush clones this friday, so I'll be on my way to some great medicine.


Drilled out all the holes today.


Made some improvements to the ventilation system...


Enjoy the pics! +Rep is always welcome for the hard work!

Hey King, looks good. Must be nice to have all that room. Cheers.
