New toy I made

LOL..........Still lots of hope my friend, you should be very proud!!! Not a bad first time out. First time I grew was 2 flourecents and 2plants. LOL. I won't get as much as you got, but then again, I will have more plants done before your next ones are. I had 13, took 2 down. So 11 left to take down soon, then 10 more that will be done in about a month, and then I put a bunch more in the past week or two. So we might come close to being even for time growing. I just have it so I am cropping less, but once a month. Helps with smell too!

I had a lot of shit happen to me in this grow, pump burn, electricity outtage, spider mites,,,it took a lot of crop away,had 24 suppose to come out next month that are gone, but it permitted me to learn a lot so i,m hittin my next one in a couple days, and I also am starting a 50 plant set up in the country and am growing soil and normal grow, no vertical or anything, no pumps here and timers there,,,,I,m goin basic, I have a 10 x 28 space to fill , will be going there this week , the whole room is ready and I'm bringing in the material this week....so I will have a good comparison I will log it

Still following along. Had to chime in when I read the old fart comment. I just had my 39th birthday and if I knew it was going to be this easy to grow my own bud I would have done it along time ago. Great job on your grow, you should proud of your harvest. You've shown alot of inguniuity (sp?) in your approach. Many well wishes your way and rep for your sharing with us......

trust me when i tell you - getting ANYTHING smokable the first time growing is highly commendable and if you are yielding ounces you should be very, very proud of your work!

Fucking INSANE.... Great grow . What else could be said .. Two thumbs up

right on, thanks guys, yeah my wife is freakin trippin at the idea that i won't be spending a 100$ a week on weed anymore...lol Oh yeah! made some muffins last nite
had 4 people hre , put the equivalent of about a gram per muffin ,,,shit...lolol had everybody stone pretty good so I,m happy about that. to tell you the truth it was a test to see how good the weed was...lol man if last nite i an indicator , i got me a major freakin smoke.

well its been 8 days I have trimmed my weed its pretty dry, still has a lot of curing to do
keepin it in dark tyempered room, bottom line weight on my yield is 24 ounces so 1 1/2 pounds. pretty good I guess, have started the next one but am having clone trouble (provider) I have 4 days tyo fing them f i want to make my next harvest, I have 60 started now and another 11 growing to be cloned in 3 weeks in that set up I talked about, but I,m 150 babies short. still my smoke is really fucken good, I am stoned a lot lately...loll its nice to sit and smoke my own weed, such arewarding feeling.....

All I can say is one hell of a job you did for yer first grow malachi! I read this entire thread today and I must say I am amazed. Nice setup, nice plants, wicked buds, and an awesome yield for a first timer as well. And as for you all being Old Farts??? lmao I am a true Old Fart... pushing the "big 50" this year so you all got a ways to go before you're considered Old Farts. Congrats to you sir on your first grow and here's hoping yer second is just as good or better. There's something to be said for us Canadians eh?? Cheers.

loll. well First off thank you very much for your visit! its nice to have such a great review, I gather you're not exactly a first time grower..lolI so all the more rewarding , I am pretty happy with it I must admit, it went well but I lost a few rounds in grow one wich is exactly what should happen I think,it brought me down to earth, it schooled me a lot and helped me to be so much more prepared for the next one,

Thanks a lot for the comments man, much appreciated

peace

Wow, I also read through the entire thread today and am also turning 50 this year.
Old Farts Rule!!!
Nice job on the grow malachi. The whole vertical thing fascinates me.

shit! thanks guys I appreciate it,Loud I would love to show you the roots but they are gone now, the roots never got longer than the pots, I didn't have any hanging roots, the pots were full of roots but short ones. it probably played on the yield somewhat though, I found that in this set up you need to drill the bottoms of the pots to make like 1/2 inch wholes made like 6 per pot and just in the vege stage of my 60 plants I saw a difference in root growth, they were choked a bit on the first grow and probably a little warm. as i said learned off the first..loll I will show you some of my weed tonite i,ll post some pics , and i,m excited that the others are started in the grow room i setup in the country. i,ll get really good at this some day...lol

you going to invest in a res chiller?

yeah i need to cuz its just gonna get hotter here we have been having incredible weather and it showed in the room I light at nite and dark during the day otherwise I would just flip, I dunno how much those chilleras are but its what i'll need at least or just A/C the box

those res chillers get expensive as fuck (3-600 bucks)


how big is your res?


this is aero right???
