People hate the USPS, but they always seem to deliver my packages in a timely manner. The last time I ordered seeds my mailman hit me with a drive-by handoff that was super smooth.

Only half of it is setup, as you can see. The second tent isn't getting used for another 1-1/2 months, so that will let me save up money for more hose. I used a tremendous amount on the first tent. The second won't take as much, but still. I've exhausted my budget for now.

I just stuck timers on my lights. They'll flip at midnight. I'm looking forward to seeing some buds.
Also my Zawtz and Supreme Snowman seeds are coming Tuesday, and I'm going to pop them as soon as they get here. It's going to be nice not having to do anything other than mix nutrients during the flowering cycle. Same goes for harvest. I hate having to feed my remaining plants while harvesting.

Dude!! You have some mad skills and patience I assume each pot has its own pump/hose? I am looking to automate my fertgation/watering so I am going to pull a chair up if you don't mind speak at a 6th grade level so I can keep up though please

Well I'm using two rings per rockwool slab. The slabs all have three plants, which are in 4" cubes sitting on the slab. So the rings are sitting on the slab between each cube. It seems to be working pretty well. The rockwool is evenly saturated and I can't find any dry spots, which was always a problem I had before.Dude!!

I wish I was able to get the Growtek system before my plants got too big to show the setup better.
Also if you get one, tell the owner that BK sent you. He should get some sort of kickback for all of the units that he's inspired others to buy.

I was going to germinate the Zawtz, Supreme Snowman and Milk Cereal / GP x Grape Gasoline yesterday, but realized I was short on rockwool cubes. So I ordered some more and will wait until they are at least on the way.
I'm excited about these strains. I've been wanting to run Zawtz since I ran one of its crosses over the summer. I also have a couple of mothers of a Grape Gasoline cross that are super frosty, so I imagine this one will be fire.
After this I'm going to run all of my remaining reg seeds and finally finish up this very long pheno hunt.

Day three. I've been noticing what looks like a ph issue where the leaves are twisting a bit. Night temps are dropping too low. This was an issue before I flipped them, and now the darkness is causing even more of a drop. I really don't want to buy a heater this late in the cold season though. I'm going to reduce the watering cycles down to once or twice a day until the plants require more.
They look happy with lots of fresh growth. I wouldn't change a thing.

I feel kind of lost not having to water my plants. I've never missed a day, and a lot of the time it was twice a day. It feels like I'm cheating. I'm also a bit jealous of how nice they look without me doing all of the work. These square ass machines are making me look bad.
I said it on page ten. Now on page thirteen I am saying it again. Hand watering gives our lives some meaning.

I don't think I'll ever automate my bonsais. I genuinely like taking care of them. They were in super bad shape after a prolonged thrip invasion and a cold dry climate, so they just sat around with minimal growth all winter. I noticed today that they were finally starting to look healthy again. I'm letting them bush out and be free for awhile, but soon I'll clean them up and get back to keeping them looking respectable.

I do want an auto fert/water system but for when we want to head out of town I do enjoy watering it makes me get moving every morning especially on those bad pain days instead of couching up feeling sorry for myself it gives me purpose
