Molasses is great. I have a friend that grows plants in nothing but molasses during flowering and I have to admit that it works. Doesnt work amazing but works. Molasses is great, and there are several products in the market that boast that they have the best one. You can literally make the best molasses at home, with simple ingredients. However, molasses does not work in anything with airstones. It will work for a day or two until your airstone is clogged, and if you dont notice it, it will so heavy damage.

Cool cool thanks so I could problem get something that will do what molasses will do that can be mixed into the bucket that has the air stone and that also works for soil? And also what's something that would be good for the boost of cal mag and pk?
so like my notes would be the general hydroponics a and b and then the cal mag/pk boost and something else with molasses, maney something that combines all three? So I could just use one extra thing along with the A and B

Hello Gang. A great opportunity came my way when an awesome landlord offered me a location I could not refuse. A little bigger then the previous space, but same plants, same nutrients, same setup. Added 2k watts to flowering and 600 to veg, making 5k in flowering and 2 600s in veg, plus t5.

The issue in moving rooms is moving the plants. I harvested most plants before the move, and ended up moving some veg plants and clones, and the Auto Flowerings. Also had some straggling flowering plants that came along, but soon the veg plants will be big, and the flowering plants will be bigger. I have much more height space here, so i'll be playing around with that.

Veg Room, Clones in their new homes, all fully rooted. Planning on keeping mother plants next to the cloner.

Great looking stuff. How are your light movers hooked up now? The one picture I saw looked interesting.

Have you suffered any yield problems with using light movers? How often do they move from one point to the other? How long is the track? Sorry for 101 questions haha I'm pretty ripped off some Whitefire. :weed: your grow looks legit and I've always been intrigued by light movers but never had any personal experience so always been a little skeptical.

Couple questions... are you worried about having too many plants in one room legally? (Also from ri) pretty sure your suposed to have all cards in seperate rooms. 12 veg, 24 flower tops... obviously its your buisness lol but curious cause most stuff that is said is hear say around here. Wish some one had actual facts.

Secondly, you have just one of those air lines into each 5gal and never have an issue? I have family as patient and trying a nice cheap effective hydro setup for me to look after but for them to pay for the equipment.

And finally, that landlord interested in renting any other places? I can prove my card ect. Looking for a nice private place that i can pay my rent an be done.

Light movers have increased my yield per light. The only one thing I can complain about is that one side of the track is dark half of the time the movers are on. The motor has an option to change the speed, anytime between 2 to 6 minutes per loop.

I have 5 patients, 5 cards, some on my grow room and some in my house. My room is in a residential address, with living quarters inside it. I plan on keeping at the most 24 plants in flowering. Ive had some large plants inside 5 gallon buckets (and yes with one air stone), and 24 plants is quite a handful.

The landlord does have other units in the building. Send me a private pm.

A few updates on the new room. Got the veg room half way stocked. Everybody at the moment is very small, but as time goes by, I will have actual mother plants, and different cycles of veg.

The Veg Room, First picture is of the T-5 and 600w MH light. They are on 24/7 for now, until the plants reach a good size. The second picture is of my temperature controller, which is hooked up to the inline fan which is hooked up to outside cold air. When temperature gets over 68 degrees, the controller turns the fan on, and off when its below 65. Cheap and efficient way of controlling temps.

This is a 600w MH, on a light mover, which will be used for end-veg cycle. Ill have the big girls under this light soon, once they get to a good size.

Some veg girls, roughly 5-6 days old. Also the air pump that I just got, which I am loving right now. Big bubbles.

The flowering room. Got a few skywalkers and blue cheeses that will be coming down in 3 weeks. Also got these new batch of girls, 10 days into flowering right now.

Thank you! I will be adding much more lights soon, most likely totaling between 10-12k w in flowering. Planning on the timeframe to be within the next 3 months.

To add a side note. This room is new for me. I always imagined myself owning a room this size, and now it is happening. It is funny to look at all of my pictures on RUI, because I started from a 5x5 tent as my flowering room 2 years ago. Since then, I maintained a minimum-wage job living with my girlfriend, and have put much of the funding from my growing back into my room. I am happy to see that re-investment into cultivating got me to where I am today. I also can't thank my patients enough for working with me. Its their donations that have helped me get to this room.
