This morning I did a thorough check of the plants in the veg area, no mites were found.

There maybe a few eggs left so I need to keep a close eye out for any that hatch. Soon enough the plants will grow and I can remove these lower leafs that had mites.

On a more positive note, my mini bubble cloner is working fine. 2 of the cuttings are starting to root. The other 2 look healthy and will follow suit shortly.


The flowering room is at day 64. The fans look "ripe", some purple and some yellow ones that ive pulled off. The plants have been drinking only water for a week.

I have decided that day 65 will be Harvest.

Lets make some Bubble Hash from my Close Trim :leaf:




I use a one gallon bubble bag kit.




And my "hands free" bucket rig.










I also use a power table top mixer instead of doing it manually.




Mix for 10-15 mins




I had enough close trim to do a double batch.






I ran the trim with all the bags twice. The 3rd wash yields very little.





Only a few grams dried but its nice :)

Ended up with just under a 1/2 pound of Hydro.​

Works out to about 9 grams average per SOG Clone. And just over .5 grams per watt.​

There is a bit of room to improve but I am very happy with the final result.​

Weirdest technique I've ever seen, But dude those are some nice lookin' nuggets..
And the yield ain't too bad either under a 400W.
I don't really understand the whole Hempy bucket technique.. But I'll be googling it to learn more ;)
+rep!

Just found your thread. Great thread man! You really did a good job explaining everything throughout your grow. I've been looking into the whole hempy style lately and came across you thread and it has made things a lot more clear just from reading it through. Thank you and good job!

The used substrate hempy mix, roots and all, was dumped in my compost pile.

I took a close look at the roots at this time. The pots did not look root bound at all. The mix had a very clean healthy root smell. I did not see any algae.

A few tap roots were down in the reservoir but the majority of the roots had propagated the entire bottle.

However my 100 % perlite hempy test did not have the same root structure.

Instead of the roots growing throughout the entire substrate mix, the roots grew in a mat just above the reservoir line.

The plant was smaller, unhappy and seemed root-bound.

This was a single test hempy to see if there was a difference between 100% perlite or the 75% perlite / 25 % vermiculite mix that I used on the rest of the plants.

The difference was quite drastic. The 100 % perlite hempy seemed to dry out alot faster and the root zone above the rez was dry for long periods of time.

While in contrast, my 75 % perlite / 25 % verm hempy's had a moist root zone. It stayed nicely damp until the next scheduled watering. The vermiculite traps a bit of water and some nutrients, it is slowly released as the perlite evaporates.

This creates a kind of misty nutrient rich fog in the root zone above the rez. I could see the mist on the sides of the bottle in between chunks of perlite.
