we got it from our local hydroponics store.

That looks fucking awesome man, it's very similar to the setup I sketched up for my future grow. Keep it up You actually saved me a few hundred dollars, I thought I needed at least 2 inline fans and 3 to be sure. I can't wait till you fire up those HPS lights

thanks man. yeah, you should be cool with just one 8" fan. if we could do it again, we mightve gotten a 10" fan instead to really move some air around. We have to keep the AC on in order to regulate temps when the lights are on, a 10" fan might move so much air that that might not be needed.

Update and pictures coming later.

so gorgeous!

you or the set up? hahaha

checked out your grow, i'd suggest ditching the LEDs and just going with Flourescents. The technology really isnt there yet with LEDs and you get stretchy non-leafy plants. Flourescents are probably cheaper that the LED you have and will work so much better to promote plant growth. Either way, good luck and happy growing.

the set up, silly HAHA. the leds cost too much to ditch and the fourescents are too bright to run cheaply, regardless of how manly blankets we tack up to the doorway of the grow room light still pours out into my bedroom when i need to sleep. i'll have to post photos of the plant now, its really starting to bush out.

also thank you haha and all your other grows look beautiful as well

ahhh, gotcha. well, kudos for making your situation work. continue to update that thing, i wanna see those girls when theyre done.

Update coming soon

thank you! i look forward to seeing your buds as well

You should go get some of the carbonated flavord water and open them and stick them near ur plants so they get carbon... sorry this seems sloppy but im baked rite now just got the idea.. ive heard of it on another post

yeah, please refrain from any future suggestions.

A) thats the most ghetto way ive ever heard of trying (and failing) to get plants CO2.

B) extra CO2 during veg really doesnt make a difference whatsoever.

C) if you read the first post where i list our equipment, we have a CO2 tank, regulator, and analog timer to use during flowering.

Nice looking setup brotha
I'm subbed!!

thanks man.

update coming in a few hours.

i am so sorry these rejects keep posting near retarded comments.

Very Clean Setup. Meticulous, would be an understatement. I can only imagine the yields will be immense, and that filter/silencer setup will definitely be a must for odor control.

your comments on the "investment vs. yield" a few pages back was VERY enlightening. Not many people understand, that getting TRUE figures, as you obviously are capable of estimating, isn't just some "8ball magic"

there definitely is a method, and you've got it down. A++ sir!!! (also, love the variety. nice to see something other than "i cloned 50,000 of the same strain!!!" threads)

you know what else releases co2? YOU DO. when you breathe. you can just breathe on a plant. i'm sure it offers no help whatsoever. just saying. breathing also creates co2.

thanks man, no worries, comes with the territory and to be honest i was that guy 3 years ago on here. All about education.

Uploading pics now, update coming very soon.

Vegging 8/21

Alright, good morning to all. The ladies are looking lovely this fine morning. Watuptho put some mean Super Cropping on the Super Silver Haze and one of the Grape Apes. They should be fattys in the next week. I tied down my LST Hindu Skunk again to get even better and equal light exposure to the whole plant. We decided to switch the plants over to flower next Thursday so thats when stuffs really gonna get fun around here. The inline fan silencer has been working great, definitely takes a few decibals away from noise pollution caused by the exhaust/fan. Anyways, here's the reason you guys pop in:


Little overview shot from the left side of the tent. As always, Grape Ape, SS Haze & Snow Caps on the left. Hindu Skunk, Master Bubba Kush & our LST'd Snow Cap on the right.

A very happy, bushy Grape Ape.


Master Bubba staying low but getting great growth.


Here's my low profile LST'd Snow Cap.


Here's our 3 Snow Cap Ladies. These all were cloned at the same time and were the same size when i LST'd one & Watuptho Super Cropped one. The one on the far left is my LST experiment. The middle is the untouched control example which will be kept in veg to become a mother for the next grow. The one on the far right is Watuptho's Super Crop experiment. Notice the far lower profile on the LST and the super thick branches on the Super Crop. Gonna be interesting to compare these two when all is said and done. I still think the equal light exposure to my LST'd colas will prove to be the better technique and supply more buds when we crop out. We shall soon see.


Watuptho going to work on the SS Haze.


More Super Cropping of the SS Haze.


And even more bending.

Thats about it for this edition of Growing With Funk & Watuptho. Hope you all are enjoying the incite, as well as the pictures. Like i said, things are gonna start heating up on Thursday so make sure to stay tuned. As always, all questions, suggestions (if you know what youre talking about), critique and rep appreciated.

Keeping perfect temps and humidity today...niiiiice. This set up is getting really dialed in now and thats without an Air-4 environment control, just damn good design.

Kudos for me (a bit brash, but fuck it, me and Watuptho are handling business and im damn proud of it hahahaha)

9 weeks til payday.

Ladies lookin lovely, can i ask how u came about your strain choices?

very nice looking grow. ive been wanting to move away from hydroton as a grow medium so this grow in coco is all i needed to make the change. Scribed
