Just dropping in and saying Hi. I'm finally employed again, which is nice, though the garden sustained us for nearly 2 years. Nothing really new in my setup, but that may change. Now that I'm working fulltime, taking care of 48 plants in dirt is a real pain in the ass time-wise. I'm considering...

Fuck snow. That is all.

I'm *almost* caught up downstairs after being gone so long. Three more clones to put into dirt, and a Cujo to harvest today.

Happy New Year everyone! We spent it quietly at home, drinking champagne and trimming :)

The garden just automatically took care of itself for 8 days. It is like a jungle down there! Hope everyone had a merry xmas!

That's great! My oxy tankfill system died yet again (Extreme Oxygen and Unlimited Oxygen are scamming assholes, beware), so I'm having a low pressure (100 psi) constant fill built that should be done sometime in early January. In the meantime, I've got half a K-tank left to finish Christmas stuff...

Two of the three rooms are now auto-watering/feeding. The rez tank I need for the 3rd is on a truck now, all the drip lines have already been run. I really like these: http://hydrobuilder.com/flexitank-105-gallon.html

Glad to hear the glass is going well. It's cold enough here now that I have to really psyche myself up to work in the shop...

Thanks for dropping in DT. TC - Yeah, it is taking some getting used to in terms of amount of work, and amount of planning, needed to fill them up and keep them going properly on a perpetual. I expect a trimmer rebellion from my wife when it becomes 3x week, every week :)

Thanks! 12 per room, two 5K rooms on a flipbox.

Lookie, plants! I've almost got the first room filled. The first pic is a Skunk #1 that has gone a little crazy.

Got my new vermicomposter set up today, and have a biological microscope on the way as well so I can really dial in my teas. Also, cleaned out my clone reservoir . How long has it been for you???? :)

It took me way longer to get it all working properly than it should of (RTFM, I know), but my flip-box and light controller are now happily working properly together, and I can turn off the twice a day phone alarm to remind me to flip manually :)

I've got to get a bunch more fans now, need more air movement.

Pics, huzzah! The second flower room went operational last night. So here are the pics of the room when we started -- long basement, bisected with a trimmed-out post, taken from the doorway at the bottom of the stairs. These were shot standing in the same place. There's now a wall with a...

Holy shit, it's essentially done. I'll get pics this weekend, I still have to clean up some of the mess, but the flower girls have been moved into their new 2x bigger room and couldn't be happier. It's going to be a few weeks before I have the second room running, but that's only because I don't...

Day 2 of basement rebuild is complete. I think we'll have it done tomorrow. My back hurts.

Wife is home, I'm still running just enough fever to be miserable. On the good news front, I got 6.5z off of the Cotton Candy plant I harvested last week, by far my best yield ever off a single plant in dirt.

In other news, my wife has been in the hospital for 3 days now with asthmatic bronchitis. After a week coughing with what we assumed were seasonal allergies, by Saturday night she was having real trouble breathing. I apparently caught it from her at some point, but as soon as my throat started...

Well, it's only going to be 5 lights per side, not six, just for power consumption purposes. On other news, thrips are back again. I hit them with spinosad spray, and will be using it as a soil drench for the next few weeks again. At least this time, I knew what I was seeing and caught it early.
