Fuck the heat and fuck the power bills Mr flowa
I hear you there!!! It confuses me and abuses me every time i get a bill from the damn control companies!

Merry Christmas FlowaMasta! I hope Santa brings you some cooler weather!

Cheers,
Mo
Merry Christmas and Happy new year to you too Mo, and too all!!!!!

Yo Flowa, where you at brother? You got any girls going at the moment? Would love to see your next creation :-D
i actually just finished up a quiet round just with 1 lamp this round, but still got a nice 550 grams, i think a new globe is due... But an excellent quality harvest and the first time i've used distilled water for the entire flush. It was a great idea too, a much cleaner smoke and seems to have a different effect to it, i've even been putting distilled water in the bong, and it smells cleaner..... starting to see the quality of our tap water... crap. Btw, cheers man ;) ;) you absolute legend you.

Hope you okay flower!
I'm ok man, been waaaay out of sorts, and been tellin a few docs to go back to school.... i'm back :p

Damn seriously? Ive got everything crossed Flowa is not one of them! He's very careful though so i doubt he would be ;)
prob just takin a break from riu. hes been goin for awhile. now its time to sit back enjoy his harvest and spend time with mrs flowa. you know he'll be back in due time.
Yeah, sorry guys, its been a while. I've been out of sorts, getting better.... Still managed a great round of G9 again, but have something exciting in the works now :) timing is bad but gives me a while to work out what i need to do. I will include some of the recent harvest i had soo enough or a video if i can find how to upload it anonymously. I think i lost the video on the cam, forgot to upload onto the computer and deleted it maybe.... but i got some close-ups of the larger colas hangin up gives a good idea anyway, you will see soon enough. Computer also fried some ram which nearly wrecked the laptop all together!

Flowa!! So good to see ya man and nice work on the single lamp harvest, 550g is still a massive harvest. I must try the distilled water flush too, i must admit our water is pretty good here though.

I'll flick you a pm too ;)

Edit- actually, I sent you an email already lol :)

I managed to get a few pics uploaded!!! :) sorry about the quality!, i no longer have the samsung wb150f i now have a video camera that is more so for video only, but it does manage to snap an ok shot. I tried and tried to get decent shots with this thing, but its just not a compact camera....

First time commenting on this thread. It's very awesome. Flowa is one of the best growers I've seen hands down. I just have one question I've read this thread a couple times and I know someone asked you where you got your pots/buckets. Can you let me know again and also I think I read where somebody found buckets like this but this thread is sooo long (amazing info tho) and I can't remember where I saw it so if y'all could help me out would be really helpful. Don't want to but the pots with holes in the already

Thanks Mo appreciate it. Just want to let everyone know here in the states if you want to get the type of bucket that Flowa uses search on google for plastic tub with handles. You will see that a lot of your average everyday stores has them. Different sizes too and colors. I'm getting mines from Walmart today

Make sure that they are a good type of plastic and won't leach bad stuff into your nutes. I like to use galvanized steel. The plants love the zinc and iron :)



or wooden wine barrels:

Can you guys not get 50L pots without holes over there? My hydro shop here says the ones they stock are from the states...seems weird hey..

Oh we have plenty of "Beverage Tubs" that we use for ice and beer at outside parties and BBQs.

No offense, but those buckets suck.


BPA free and unlikely to get cracks from UV since its white. Nice 10 gallon bucket! Should last much longer.

I think they suck too - just showing that we have them.

That Brute one is killer! The only thing about white is that it lets light in. You should have seen me at the store with the bucket over my head trying to see how much light it let through!

I just wrap my buckets with mylar or something like it that doesn't let any light through. (Actually, Reflectix.)

I prefer shorter, wider buckets though, because my cabinet is short. I need every inch of vertical space I can get.

Hey Mo, where'd you find the steel tub? How many gallons is it? (wtf - 00???) I wonder if it's safe. Are those 3 pictures on the label of plants growing in these tubs?

Oops, never mind, Mo. I found one on Amazon that's 11 gallons, 20" wide and only 11" tall. That's ideal for me. They say they're safe for contacting food, too.

I have been using them for years! The only thing that I do is to make sure to supplement with copper to keep the plants from getting too much zinc. I used copper chelate pills from the health food store. Some of the micro nutes contain copper also. It will give the plant almost a blue tint to the leaves.

Here are some pics:






















These were mainlined sativa plants that I just let go so they are not really indicative of what these tubs can do:





Here is some Jesus OG in some used soil:










Here is a clone of that JOG #1 a couple of days ago:
