Hey jayp thanks for joining man. I'm sorry I haven't answered your PM bro. I'm doing well my friend. Busy as ever and ready to grow again. The last grow didn't go to we'll because of my poor decision. But I'm back in action and ready to see what I can do!

Truu :smokebuds: this is very interesting!i didnt know you could use the leftovers ^^
question: what do you keep over your res bucket under the plant, to stop the lights from giong down there? and how is the water getting down there if you put something over the bucket? im sure you got a good answer on this one :thumbs: prob just me missed it some place.
Nice work bud!
Hey dudes hows it goin? I'm sorry I've been out for so long. Work is extremely busy these days. I've been putting in 70 hours a week at work. And I've also been promoted to supervisor. Me and the wife are trying to have another baby, and well on my free time I'm either fishing or with the family. Hunting season is less than a month away and I just got things ready last weekend. I miss frequenting the forum and watching some grows, but in time I will be back.
I am currently not growing (fuck me right). About a week after my last post my window unit in my grow room broke on me. The fan that cools off the condensing coils shattered. I think a stick fell in while it was running and shattered the POS plastic fan. I haven't got around to fixing it, and honestly... I have no idea when I will. I'm thinking it might be a good time for me to take a break from growing for a little bit. NOT TO LONG of course. I need to keep a stash of meds by my side as always, and the BHD is still lasting me. Anyways I miss growing...a lot. I cant wait to get started again but honestly I need to make sure I have the time to take care of a plant. Hopefully within the next few weeks I'll get around to fixing my AC and get things going again.
I didn't kill the GDP, I gave it away to a friend to take care of. He made a mother of it so I will be able to take a clone in the future. I hope all of you are doing well and the smoke is doing its job. I think for my next grow I'll try and break my last auto record..who knows with my squirrelly ass. Anyways, take care dudes. I'll be back soon!
Rebelroy- Hey man I keep a piece of reflective mylar covering my bucket.
lazy- lol thanks bro. she is getting so big for 4 months. Took her to the vet and shes already 30 pounds. such a smart dog to, my first aussie and I love them. they are great dogs and just love to be with you and have such great personalities. my daughter and her are like sisters lol

Im glad to hear good things are going on in your life buddy! wish you the best of luck, and we`l be here when you get ready again :hug: :smokebuds:
What's up dudes. I'm back in action finally again! Growing another Himalayan Blue Diesel. I figured I would just pick up where I left off on this thread since it has all the information at the start. I'm growing with the same setup. This time I plan on dial it in more than last time. My girl is about 4 days old right now still very small. I will post pics soon. My ph pen just crapped on me and another is on the way. Im going to try and present my posts in a scientific manner in hopes that it will be easier for you guys to follow along. An official update will come soon.

Glad to see you getting back in action. That BHD of yours turned me onto autos as well as coco. Very inspiring. Im Loving every bit of it now.
I have been thinking of building your recirculation setup in the new house when I move (since I can't grow until then, I'm planning haha). I was curious if you had to adjust your feeds with recirculation due to the unique properties of coco? Specifically with regards to calcium, magnesium, and potassium.
I know.coco really holds onto the calmag and doesnt let it go. So I'm assuming you use alot of calmag. But why about potassium? I know the coco didn't hold onto the potassium at all, and what isn't absorbed normally gets 'lost' in a drain to waste system. But with recirculation have you had issue with excess potassium accumulating at a higher rate than other elements?
My fear is the ratios of elements being 'out of whack', compared to what is being put in by myself. And while we can monitor the PPMs, after the solution gets recycled there's no real way of telling what those ppm s consist of. Maybe they gobbled up all the nitrogen and calmag, and most of the ppms are potassium.
Just curious about your experience with this
