Bruce banner 2weeks out

Entropick · 2021-11-07T00:53:52+00:00

Interesting. Well, I'm more of a hobby, carefree operator right now, it's not a fine science and I really can't give you comparable numbers. Strange about the cs there, it was just a real good deal for me at the time, the reps were real helpful and I didn't have any problems but ya know how it goes! I'm not suggesting you go with these people at all. Nothing real serious here, it's my "model railroad". Cheers!

Thanks for the reply. How does it compare to these numbers... A 1000 w HPS over a 4x4 tray containing 64 plants (6"x6" per plant, in 3x3 rockwool cubes) yielding 2.5 pounds in 60 days. Nutrients around 1400 EC, 1600 ppm CO2, negative ions, and everything else maxed. Does that sound comparable?

What does it cost to run on a 12/12 schedule?

I'm trying to look at that site, but parts of it don't appear to be working correctly. Am getting no images.

Looks like this is the source for all LED lights at this point. Kind of looks like gambling, and hoping you don't get chinese junk.

This was my first run with LED's. The final result was beyond expectation, we were blown away. I used a https://lightgeekus.com/geekbeast-pro. It was around a thousand bucks, I got a deal for a little less. I've never run indoors and this first harvest was spectacular. I'm running again right now and getting ready to transplant into bigger pots hoping for a mid-Feb harvest. We've never seen or read one single complaint about this light. It's a game changer and has enhanced my life. It easily met HPS quality expectations and I'm hoping to add a second one and convert an entire room.

In case it's not clear I had this light hanging in a vivo-sun grow tent 5x5 with a rooftop in a finished basement. Odor was manageable and output stellar. Let me know if there's any more questions.

Node · 2021-11-05T23:43:31+00:00

I lost this section of tabs when the icons stopped rendering...

Wanted to ask if about LED light intensity, and how much it costs to get HPS levels. Also, do you have any tips or links on how to do it that way?

Sun has dropped low enough that it's mostly behind a giant redwood now, and outdoor ended a week or two ago with the first rain. Time to move indoors, and perhaps also offset my heating bill, in a two birds/one stone type of way.

Enza · 2021-09-03T03:57:35+00:00

Wdym, like keep different species of plants around cannabis as it grows?

Edit: beautiful plant btw, god is she a giant lol. What strain?!

Entropick · 2021-09-02T20:24:50+00:00

u/enza if the tagging works, couple outdoor plants

Entropick · 2021-09-01T18:43:19+00:00

I just had that thing happen where you're typing a long reply, get going, fumble, hit something that deletes half of it and also reversed my backspace key.

wtf and balls. please excuse my much shorter reply, mostly it involved regret that you are unable to do it, i got lucky and had help. I have been frustrated with things the last 20 years so all i do is smoke that and lift weights. It works very well, it is the best medicine, so no wonder its treated the way it is. I'll get some pictures of the outside deal too here, you might be interested in how thats going, theres an exact mirror of the tent plants outside to test as an experiment. This LED is a real game changer, its exceeded expectations, the whole setup was around $1300. It breaks my heart to see someone who clearly has a passion not be able to indulge, im glad you can smoke it at least. I appreciate the detailed message, talk to you soon!

Enza · 2021-09-01T15:27:01+00:00

Cats, cannabis and cat nip ☺️

You should get going again, you could fit what I use in an apt room, no problem. This turned out better than hoped

I honestly don’t have the money rn :( that’s why I said I can’t. Your setup looks beautiful. And really, that’s bubba kush?? I love that strain, it’s amazing for epilepsy (that’s why I grew that one time, I have a med card).

And the tips were in no way for you!! It’s obvious you know what you’re doing!! I’m a fucking newb. I only grew one plant ever. I was just sharing that for anyone who happened to stop by and read it as it helped me a lot, cannabis is one of the easiest and fun plants to grow ime!!

The trich thing does make a difference ime too - a dude online (my cannabis senpai) showed me that infographic and explained to me most dispensaries/cultivators harvest as quickly as possible so the trichs are usually in the second to middle stage, they don’t wait for trichs to amber unless they’re doing it on purpose and charging more.

Same goes for cures, they do dry trims (faster) and the bare minimum for curing. He wanted me to cure mine for 3 months to a year if I had it in me (everything I read backed up what he said about long cures; more cbd and cbn is produced, cbg makes that happen iirc), I lasted two months lol. I’d check the bottles and humidity and burb the jars each day, and god it smelled so good - not skunky or like cannabis at all, but like lavender or something mixed with sweet candy.

I did “3 early mini harvests” where I would take a small nug during each of those “✅ harvest stages” on the infographic, and it really does make a difference even with the same strain/plant, your harvest time. I did separate cures with those as an experiment, and they didn’t even look the same physically. When I did the “early harvest”, the nug was bright green, some “pistons” were white, some where fully orange, some where orange on the bottom to white on top.

When I did the real harvest, the nugs were dark green and hues of purple (harvested mid November from may), even fan leaves where purpling at that point (I know this can be a result of abuse or over exposure to the cold, but it was always in the sun and I took it in everyday half-way through when I realized I was actually capable of growing it and seeing it all the way through lol). I really think you get the most out of cannabis from late harvests (ambered trichs), but I guess it’s subjective!

I can say for sure it wasn’t a psychedelic head high, it just mentally put me in a relaxed state where I was down to do anything, work or sit on the couch and melt into it, and all my muscles were tingling in my extremities and stomach. It’s hard finding strains like that!

Bubba kush, afghani (landrace), and blackberry kush are my all time favorite/medical strains for seizures. I’ve never tried Bruce baner, but I’ve been told I need to. I just got cannatonic for the first time as I love ac/dc, and that’s a great strain too!

Sorry for the cannabis ramble, I miss growing, your plants look beautiful and I’m jelly!! I hope you have a great harvest!

Edit: spelling & grammar, prolly more errors from typing on my phone, sry lol.

Entropick · 2021-08-31T17:50:20+00:00

Oh no joke you're into the plant too? The plant and cats? No higher vibe. You should get going again, you could fit what I use in an apt room, no problem. This turned out better than hoped. I usually do outside, this is the first time in. There's 2 strains in there, Bruce Banner #3 and Pearlescent, which is a Bubba Kush, Silver Pearl cross, it's a modern twist on an old favorite. They came from seeds. There is an outdoor from the same seeds, same strains, to compare the two and learn. We're growing in regular potters soil from home depot, nothing fancy but have used some nutes; maxi-bloom, recharge, so they're not strictly organic...it's dicey to run so I go all in to get as much for the winter. We make rso from the trim, that's been wonderful. These have been topped numerous times, super cropped, basically everything possible to increase yield.

I appreciate the trichromes tip, I was aware but thats a fine infographic. These are still clear, I think around the 8th or 10th, they'll be done. I will let you know how it ends up, I appreciate the advice, insights and interest very much!

Enza · 2021-08-31T12:19:20+00:00

Seriously tho, beautiful grow! If you don’t mind me asking, what strain??

I’ve only been able to grow once, as I did it a year before I moved into an apt and can’t grow here without a proper indoor setup..

This was my only grow, from a couple of years back from beginning to end (Chocolate Hashberry Kush): https://imgur.com/a/gVlNJLg

She provided over 4 ounces, and I used no boosters or pesticides, it was all natural. I removed yellowing and large fan leaves that blocked sun, but didn’t top it. I let it grow natural for the most part. I think it did so well because it was peat moss, which I only learned later is a terrible business to support as that’s from wet lands, which they destroy in the process by harvesting to sell.. cannabis seems to love it though.

I used a jeweler’s loupe and monitored the trichomes until they turned amber, so I know it had the most cbd and cbn and was ripe to harvest all around, including terpenoid-wise:

I know I don’t need to share this with you, but as a beginner this was really helpful for me: https://www.growweedeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/when-to-harvest-cannabis-diagram.jpg

There honestly is nothing like home grown cannabis. Hope you have a good harvest! :)

Entropick · 2021-08-31T11:45:24+00:00

You rock! Count on it, great ideas!

Enza · 2021-08-31T04:22:11+00:00

At three in the morning I’ll be coming to visit you.. don’t worry I just wanna smoke some dank buds.

I’ll bring over bubba kush, ac/dc, catatonic, and I will help you do a wet trim when you’re ready to cure (I like wet trims, it’s easier to see and keep the sugar leaves imho)

Entropick · 2021-08-30T14:53:27+00:00

thanks, its passed all expectations and truly enhanced living

Earendil · 2021-08-30T13:46:28+00:00

Impressive!

Entropick · 2021-08-25T12:04:13+00:00

Yeah no shit right. Similar boat, I'm trying to produce everything needed here, what I really need are some chickens.

Entropick · 2021-08-25T12:03:42+00:00

Look into led's, I too was into the old school way but it was just too much...these tents and led's....holy toledo is this easy to setup and run. I'm hoping to keep myself supplied entirely in-house with flower and also RSO from the trim. I did this last year and it made for a really nice winter. Not much of a learning curve, the light company is easy to contact and very helpful, they are Chinese however.

Optimus85 · 2021-08-25T05:53:35+00:00

When the local pot shops bar me from entrance from my lack of a vax certificate I might have to consider that option.

Node · 2021-08-25T05:36:18+00:00

I've been looking at the vivosun. In the old days, 1000 watt HPS was the standard, and produced 2.5+ pounds per light.

Now I'm more looking for a personal setup, but have no experience with LEDs. Thanks, I'll check it out.

Entropick · 2021-08-25T01:28:26+00:00

There is a carbon filter attached to the tent and when its closed the odor is surprisingly contained, it does smell though yes. Check the other reply for the details in equipment, I got going for under a $1,000, it was not hard, you could do it, I recommend doing it.

Entropick · 2021-08-25T01:26:42+00:00

Shoot it's (light) about $300 cheaper than it was, this thing is a beast, it needs CO2 and a more professional setup than my low-key peasant attempt. Worth it though so far. Great warranty, efficient..far red and UV/IR, bluetooth control. So no CO2 but maybe next time, minimum nutrients, some maxi-bloom, the seeds are high quality though, $130 for six, so that's probably why it looks so good when I'm mostly clueless. First time indoor, thinking about expanding into a larger attempt.

Optimus85 · 2021-08-25T00:14:37+00:00

Nice flowers! I should grow my own as well but I don't have a green thumb. And it's probably a bit "fragrant" as well. Still, that's a healthy-looking crop.

Node · 2021-08-24T23:35:51+00:00

What equipment are you using? Which tent? Which LED, and how much did it cost? Are you running CO2?

Looks like a nice yield heading your way.

Entropick · 2021-08-24T20:05:52+00:00

Hey thanks man, I'm hoping somewhere btw 2 and 4 oz per plant, one of them is basically a kush so its yield is lower but its going to be some face smasher, I think. This is my first full run indoors with LED in a tent and I was doubtful but so far its been satisfying. There's some outdoors, I'm hoping to get 2lbs overall. Winter survival y'know.

AmericanMuskrat · 2021-08-24T15:49:56+00:00

That looks beautiful, what kind of yield are you expecting?
