dankmango tries a hempy perpetual

thats how you do it bro, my girl watched my previous grow and called it on me that i was wasting time. she was right. like 4 months of her asking where the buds are I finally cut them down. I move what i need to to cover my bills, and we only had like a week of smoke. straight bull$hit. I took my clones a month before the big girls were done and they were nowhere near ready to be flowered. Thats why i switched over to what i have going on now. I do the math everyday and Its officially enough for my own head stash, with some left over. Its the only way i can make it happen bein a heavy smoker with a girl who is a heavy smoker and my space to work with. when it is all running at top peformance I hope to pull 1-2 zips a day. thats with the room runnin 24 hours switchin girls in n out every night. gives me roughly 60 hempy buckets, 2 per each day. I should be able to pull 1 a day from each of the 2 sets, and replace them each with one a day. right before I move I am goin to try and move all my stuff up north to vermont and use my empty place with my lights moving. I am down to stay here with my lights on that 2x4 and like 3 stands across my whole room, moving them across the room stand by stand to fill my space up. it would basicly be 1200 watts in like a 12x12 on a mover. seems possible with some effort. we will see though.

no longer watering every day. Some gnats were seen flyin around the closest drain, and some have worked on over to my grow area. The girls I chose to take clones from have all beaten off gnats in the past, I dont have any holes in any leaves and they seem to prefer outside my grow room and around drains. I did not water yesterday and only watered 2 girls today. It takes about 3 days for them to get bone dry, so i dont have to water every day I was just babying them. I think they will do better when they have to go looking for water. Ill start checking for those who need water before giving it out. I am in love with my super lemon haze, super silver is one of my favorites and I have had so much fir lemon bud that really smells like lemon and tastes like lemon so I cant wait to try her out. she wreaks like lemon and hasnt even shown flowers yet

thier probably white flies and they get down in soils i noticed and nest fas,,i spray for them if i notice more ,,because thier breeding somewhere in the garden more likely.

yeah, I exhaust ito my screened in porch area, so they might get in through the screen or something. there is a lot of plants around me everywhere, and I always notice the outside plants are very unhealthy and have holes from bugs, they arent mine so I cant stop them outside but my girls are the best. The gnats start eating roots and my girls just beef it up and they look like bonsai plants with huge ancient roots. after drying out the containers it looks like they are all gone. I will keep an eye out. worse comes to worse I am really excited to try some predator bugs cause I never have before.

hahaha here is my cat playin with my dinner.
thought it was hilarious

what r u cloning in??? hempy or plugs???

cups of miracle grow potting soil, mixed with some perlite. Its left over from my soil grow so I just keep using it. It prolly has no nutrients left from all the plain water I have poured through it. Once they are rooted they get put into hempy asap cause they take off like crazy in it.

NIce pic of the cat, thats funny. My question is how did your dinner end up on the floor with the cat?

haha, as soon as I walked through the door with it she attacked the bag it was in, she never saw a lobster n I boiled it anyways, so I put it down and let her check it out. hehe

I ditched the seedlings that I started, I have never flowered them and dont know anything about them. I dont have time to figure them out right now, and the clones will pass them up anyways.

1,2,3. The new growth since they have
been in hempy's is nice. I like taking real small clones so they have a week or two to grow a nice root mass before flowering, and they cant be too big.

4. this one gets it's first night today. Looks like she will be a nice fatty, lots of bud sights.

5-9. Bud shots, oldest ones still have about 4 weeks left, some are only at the end of 1 and 2 weeks.

10. The fruity pheno of skunk 1, more indica but slower flowering than the others.Only two of them being flowered, but a nice set of clones already rooted. Very heavy yielder.

11,12. Clones under the t-5's

temps have been near 90 in there. Got rid of the carbon scrubber to help lower the temp but I think something is wrong with my a/c unit. I also raised the lights a little bit. I am also thinking about doing two single colas in each container

just some nice shots from today, rooted clones are under the hps now and new ones are under the t-5's.

sup darkmango! eagerly following bro

is it feasible to make a few stands to hold a 2x4, and then every x amount of minutes I move my lights from stand to stand? So I can have a light moving system but I move it. I figured I could have a 10x10 room and move the 2 600's on a 2x4 across the room stand by stand every 10 minutes or something. Or maybe it would work in a smaller area even? any input is appreciated.

Sounds sick bro! I was lookin for some island vibes around here. the outdoor looks too nice, i wish I had some sun to work with.

I decided to go with 2 in one, I measured the lollipops I have now and they will be nice that way, with nothing but green when I look down on them.

1. this mornin, before the big girls showed up for their day.

2,3,4. Root shots, putting two in ever hempy. This is why I love hempy, beautiful root mass.

next are shots of how my rotation works. Take a clone from the girls right before they throw flowers, after about 5 nights.

Cuttings go into cups of dirt under the t-5 where they are folair fed and babied for a few days.

Once they show signs of life like leeching out nutes from the leaves, leaves dying, and bright green shoot on top from new life they are put in extra space under the hps to start getting used to intense light

After a few days they show life in all of there leaves and have a few new ones also. They are put into a hempy container to veg for a while until they can donate clones and be flowered also. should be about a foot tall. If they are flowering they get taken out after 12 hours of light and put into a dark space. and so on and so forth.

got the ozone generator, it was smelling really strongly like ozone whenever it was on so I shortened my exhaust line to get the exchange rate up. I cant smell anything anymore, its just smells clean. on the other side of my inline it smells a litle like ozone but its not near me so its ok.

yea i know wat you mean.the sign of a good grower,i believe ,is some who thrives for perfection,satisfied but not satisfied,,but plants need lesser than we think, thats wy wen problems come up thats the message the plant is tellin us
