My DIY Revolving Tent Garden

Oh I've never seen one with 3 sites. I have the original 7 site one from years ago.

here you go.....I think you still can purchase the containers, just pull out the sponges....got a MACYS in your 'hood?

Hah, that's cool a tiny little mini aero garden. I'll have to look for those. Do you just dump perlite in there? Seems like it would fall out.

yeah...I dump it in there and the bigger pieces stay in and the little particles fall out...I just stuff it till it gets filled...but I don't pack it in..gotta leave space for oxygen.....yeah, it is a cute little thing.... 45 bucks, cant go wrong!! 3 clones every two weeks!!!

Alright so here's an update. Now is the 8th week of flowering, and the plants are due. Not sure if I'm going to chop now or wait a bit longer. Almost all the pistils have turned orange and the calyxes are swollen. Trichs look mostly cloudy with some amber. The thing is, since these all got pollenated should I chop them earlier than usual or should I still wait for amber trichs? Either way, I think it's about time. I may just cut the timer off and leave them in the dark for the next few days.


Here are the pics:


There are only two left. I chopped the other lemon skunk hermie last week, and it's curing now (smell is amazing).


Juicy Fruit #2:







Lots of trichs, tons of cloudy few amber.


Trainwreck:





Looks mostly done to me. The calyxes have even opened up, don't know if that's just b/c of the pollen.



And here is an update on the clones:


The two in the front are clones (not looking the greatest). The three in back are seedlings. I topped this round, and may keep vegging or may just dump into flower for another yield.

Nice setup you have there

How well does your 4" inline duct fan work with Zenmaster's DIY Walmart Carbon Filter?


I assume it is this fan :

How loud is it? How far away from the cab can you hear it?

I am thinking about getting one of these fans to exhaust my entire cab through one of Zen's filters. It will be a tiny mother chamber a larger flowering chamber with passive intakes up to a cool tube with a hps.

From your experience, do you think the fan is able to handle the job? Sorry for all the questions and Thanks in advance!!!

nice pics!!!

Thanks for the compliments. That fan is almost exactly like the one I use for my veg tent, I'll take a pic of it sometime. I have it mounted on the wall outside the tent, and it draws air through the carbon filter from inside the tent. It doesn't make a lot of noise, but having it mounted on the wall sort of creates a little humm that really can't even be heard outside the room. My bigger fan makes more noise but niether of them are bad enough to be heard from outside the room. That particular 4" fan you're looking at is suitable for my CFL veg tent, but I doubt it would be suitable to cool the HPS and I wouldn't recommend it. I use a much better squirrel cage fan for the HPS, because the HPS bulbs are so much hotter and take a lot of CFM's to cool. But with my cool tube, I can keep the bulb about 10 inches away from the canopy.

Thanks for stopping by.

Well I guess now would be a good time to post the harvest pics. This first harvest is not that big, but once I get the clones and everything rotating it should be up to par.

Trainwreck

Very funky smelling shit. I can tell this will have some good flavor.


Juicy Fruit




Very dense top on this one.


The smell of these nugs is very potent, knock you on your ass kind of smell. And both of these plants are extremely sticky.

Oh and this was the lemon skunk harvest. This is already dried and in jars. I don't think I posted these in this thread yet.







A little bit of time in the jars is starting to bring that lemon smell out strongly. This is some really nice smelling shit.

DAMN! nuggies looking SWEET! all I can say is W.O.W. LOL

Thanks, I like to bust up the colas to let them air out better while they are drying. I've found that keeping the long cola with 10" of stem invites more mold and chance of unwanted odor.

smart man!

Nice looking harvest. Keep us updated on the clones.

Alright so the hard work of one round is done, and it's beginning to pay off (the juicy fruit is the bomb btw). Now it's time to get the chamber fully loaded so this revolver can keep clicking like clock work. I've got 3 new seedlings in 12/12 now, and they are taking off. It looks like I see maybe one potential male of the three, so I won't have much to work with there. The two clones are still in veg but still getting huge, and I think I'm going to use them as mother plants. They are stout and branchy as hell, so I think it would be better to get them all clipped and have a ton of new clones to load this tank with.

Here are some photos:


Mother clones. They need to be clipped soon.




The three seedlings under 12/12. If I get any luck here with females, I may try for some more clones before they flower too long.

So the first harvest is all cured up, and I saved the best for last. I gave away a lot of the mango TW b/c it wasn't really my fav. Smoked most of the lemon skunk first, and still have quite a bit of the juicy fruit left. The juicy fruit is some amazing killer shit.

Anyways, I've shut down the indoor op and moved it all outdoors. Let's take this outside! is my new thread if any of you are interested in following.

Here are some bud pics...


TW, last little nug left. I gave almost all of it away.



Lemon Skunk. Everyone loved this shit, smoked quite well.



My personal fav, Juicy Fruit. Best tasting, best smoking, best high ever. This shit tops most stuff I pay out the ass for.



And topping it off with a cross joint. Thanks RIU, you've taught me a lot here.

DUDE!!! you cant just stop the indoor op...you were doing sooo well. And finishing it off with a cross joint.....a possible resurection of the indoor???? Ive had a good time reading this. Did you get your yield weights?

Well it was getting pretty hot in there, and I figured I should utilize some of nature's energy while I have the chance this season. I didn't tear it down, I just pulled the plug (or flipped the breaker in this case).

There will definately be a resurrection of the indoor op when the temps outside get a bit cooler. Possibly around the fall.

My yield was a little under a quarter pound, about 3.75 ounces to be exact. I don't remember the break down in grams, but it wasn't very much considering what I had to work with. Next time I'll take more clones and rotate them to perfection or at least fill the room so I can get at least 8 ounces.
