    Gnat Wars

    Gnat Wars I harvested the winter round and started more for the spring. Just before I flipped I noticed what I thought was a nutrient burn, turns out it was the first shot in a major PIA. Although I have used Lucas before and not seen any problems, I switched to General Hydro drain to waste...

    Early Christmas

    Early Christmas; the Dachshund just announced the delivery of my 160 micron bag to the entire eastside of the Vegas valley. On the last run I cured the cheese before I shook it out in a 220 bag. This one is for the white widow/silver haze under buds and close trim.

    Winter cheese

    Summer is definitely over. All summer I nursed 6 cheese some WW and sativa in 4 inch pots with peat and perlite under 250W. Kind of drain to waste with GH. After pulling clones I was left with four now cheese ex-mothers. Rather than stick them in a big dirt pots, I stuck them in a 2.5 gallon...

    my little friends

    A group of the surviving Lady Bugs of the 1500 I threw into the flowering tent about week 5. I know that was overkill, but it was cheap. A few have migrated through out the house turning up in unexpected places. Recreational Pot starts Saturday; local TV has a countdown clock on the screen...

    Southwest Sizzle

    Southwest Sizzle I was telling people that the Vegas heat made you feel like a chocolate chip cookie. Well it has been feeling a lot like sizzling bacon lately. Hit 117 F yesterday and probably again today and if I rob any more of my old Lady’s A/C for my plants: it is not just the plants that...

    It’s getting late and spring has flown, it was 106 F with 30 mph gusts and 4% humidity today, almost like a hair drier. I am growing in a 4X4 tent most of the time under 450 watts and a swamp cooler. That is super silver on the left and white widow on the other left. SS: Great fun to...

    My flush - stage one

    I started at 6.2 following the daily feeding schedule. PH schedule rose and then fell back to 6.2 for a few days. PPM dropped to 107, I always thought there were salts that remained un-dissolved at 6.2 so my next flush was 4.4 and that flush returned at 6.2, 170 PPM. I have continued the flush...
