Congrats on the harvest, that's an impressive result from such a compact system. Ever thought about sitting that enclosed rubbermaid chamber on another tote and doing DWC or other hydro? It could shorten your turn around time between harvest as less/no veg time would be needed.

Great job.:leaf:
lovely buds and self contained.

Love the exhaust fan setup.

How was the odor controlled?:bigjoint:

I'm thinking that I will do this next time rather than like last time in the bathtub..

For drying R U just gonna hang or?
The odor isnt contained at all. My first run i had a strain that barely smelled. So I thought that wasnt so bad.

This time these babies reeked in the last 2 weeks like a dead animal.

So I need to handle that immediately

Drying will be hung for 4 or 5 days then in a paper bag for 1 or 2 more. Then off into the jars they go for 30 days minimum.

I actually have a veg rubbermaid right next to it so I dont have any veg time.

Ive actually been studying alot about hydro lately.

Looking into a autopot like design. I like coco alot the more I research. Im not really digging soil indoors. Ive had annoying fungus gnats since I started using fox farm soil. Different bags of soil. Same damn gnats.

But its a nice way in the door if you know what i mean:bigjoint:

Two flower chambers with no veg time > 1 veg and 1 flower chamber :D

I love the idea of coco but haven't tried it yet. My hydro shop guy can't speak highly enough of it though and he is very experienced and helpful.

Same with my shop. They love coco more than anything. It will definately be in my next settup.

And yes 2 flower boxes>1:blsmoke:
 
just wondering. how much of the nutes did you use. i'm using ff as well and yours look very well late in to flowering. just wondering how much of each your using per gallon and about how much water they were eating towards the end.

Ive heard lot about people burning there plants with fox farm. I think there feeding schedule assumes we are growing bigger plants.

So i dont follow there schedule exactly.They go through about a 1/2 gallon a feeding. Usually 3 days between waterings. I let them wilt slightly to tell me when there thirsty.

Fear the overwatering

per gallon every other watering
1 tsp big bloom
1/2 tsp tigerbloom

1/4 tsp cha ching every 4 waterings.
This stuff is potent. Go easy in soil. Probably builds up easy in soil

Thanks for stopping by

I dont really like to do weigh wet weight. Kind of like countings chickens before they hatch kind of thing.

Ill post the dry weight with the next update though.

Yeah I think Im gonna go 4 days next time. Seems they were a little 2 dry. Anybody got any good ideas on adding a little moisture so I can still get a good cure.

Or should I just not worry about it?

i have thrown in some lemon, lime, or orange peels in a jar to moisten up some compressed ass schwag... i know it works for that... the only downfall is that your plant takes on the flavor of whatever peel you use... that is why i have what i call the sprite combo... add a lil of each of these and it will make it taste like sprite... the lemon and lime give it that mixed citrus flavor and the orange peels sorta sweeten it up a lil... like i said, i do this with compressed schwag... i have been doing it for years... i fluff it back out, tweeze the seeds out, cut trim and manicure each peice of bud as if it were dank... it improves bag appeal, taste, ease of smoking, and flavor... i know your'e prolly not trying to change the flavor of your bud too much, but if you want to moisten it back up a lil do it... it only requires like a day or two in a sealed jar with the peels... i usually line the bottom of my jar with the peels and put the weed on top.. i have noticed if you put the white side of the peels facing up with thebud on that side of it moistens it more than it changes the flavor... not saying it wont change the flavor at all, but not as much as if you had the colored sides of the peels facing up... consider it and let me know what ya think...
