Still under just the 28W? looking awesome.
Yes sir. That will be the light I'll use throughout flower. I may decide to add some, but if I do it will only be around 5 watts of cheap LEDs.

Compost mold? Turned under... The worm bin is doing well. Found a load of juvenile/baby worms(amongst other things...) in decomposed avocados under a giant avocado tree nearby(I also collected all the composted avocado pits, anyone have any information on these? I assume they're full of great nutrients...).

Underneath is a picture of some white shrooms/fungus that grows in most decomposed avocado pits and all over the place under this tree (including on its roots, real weird...).

When I moved a hollow avocado shell, this little shroom-bed-thing smoked. Yes, it smoked... I can't explain it really, but it was cool.

The smoke was most likely spores being released into the air :)
Cool. Saw it again today haha.

Attempted 4 clones from her/minor trimming and LST... She loved avocado pit compost.

Easy

I managed to snag some Aloe plants with only tiny roots attached, if any... Anyone experienced with aloe? I tossed 'em in some good dirt, I think they'll be fine...

This would also be the point in time where, if I had the money, I'd add another 28w panel (12xWW/1xRed). I'm happy with the results thus far and look forward to scaling my project up in the near future.

If I've learned anything about training/pruning, tucking and manipulating leaves can often replace your need to do so.

As a wise man says on ICMag (don't kill me :mrgreen:):

It ain't rocket science...

She's quickly outgrowing my space...

Flowering has resumed...

I've taken off more of her heads than I can count on two hands... There are still more that I'd prefer to remove, but I'll let her have some molasses/EWC/compost with her watering instead.

Your Thread Is one Of my Favs on Riu Hands Down
Thanks! I like to think this silly little grow entertains people... I also have to say I frequently lurk on your thread/sorry I do that lol!

Looking gnarly and weatheredly awesome! :)
Weathered indeed! All that brown stuff is old buds/foliage that has died and hasn't fallen off.

To be honest I didn't expect her to be so stable. Her life all the way up to mid flowering was literally pouring rain in compacted soil until I found her. She revegged/resumed flowering without a hiccup. I hope it stays that way...

The first batch was terrible lol. Advice to anyone looking to clone, do it 45mins to an hour AFTER you've watered your mother. Not thinking, I did it before and the clones just keeled over.

I've another three in pots ATM- cut and stuck in wet dirt with a little watering. They look fine after 2 days.

If I had a 400watt light and ballast but wanted a 1000watt instead I could just buy a new ballast and bulbs and use the same hood correct?

28 watts... Very interesting.
Yes sir, til the end.

I've no experience with HID systems but what you say seems correct. I would definitely ask someone more schooled than I on that, though...


Cool pictures! Is that a pet or were you in the process of getting robbed?! Thanks for stopping by.

Rofl. So random, I love it. I was talking with someone arguing plants had a very high intelligence encoded into their DNA and then *wham* a marsupial walks through the door on a completely different order of magnitude. Puts some shit into perspective a bit.
