Don't you have a harvest due today?

green_nobody · #43 (**permalink**) 08-31-2007, 06:28 AM

wop, i harvest later on today passion

i will post some pics on the harvest and everything, so just a few hours more patiences

green_nobody · #44 (**permalink**) 08-31-2007, 04:05 PM

okay, i harvested my babies today, 3.3oz wet bud, so actually not to bad after all. all of you have fun with the pics i made today.

green_nobody · #45 (**permalink**) 08-31-2007, 04:12 PM

since i will miss out on hunting season this year i present bud shots, no bucks included here

green_nobody · #46 (**permalink**) 08-31-2007, 04:14 PM

actually that are all the trimmings i fermenting (water-curing) right now too, to make an long iso extraction...

green_nobody · #47 (**permalink**) 08-31-2007, 04:19 PM

okay, after i was done with trimming i measured the wet yield, ended up with 3.3or as a stated earlier... and this went to water curing all.

besides, you my noticed that i didn't trimmed off all the tiny fan leaves around the buds, they cover with trichos anyway, and that with reason, since the fermentation takes care of the chlorophyll i smoke em all up and don't need to mix in tobacco for joints if rolled the europian way, so bitching about me being messy again guys

green_nobody · #48 (**permalink**) 08-31-2007, 04:30 PM

okay, this is one of the final post here, buds submerged for fermentation, i put a glass onto of them to get em down.

the trimmings are in a second smaller jar, also put away for curing.

the next things her will be the buds in a week for drying em and a smoke report.

Hey Green, never knew you had T-5's. How was the smoke my friend? And do you still use them buddy?

Peace.

actually it was a mistake of mine jangel as they are actually just T8's - the smoke wasn't too bad as they been really icy but not as strong as what i grow under my HPS - i would say it had about 3/4 of the potency i get with my 400W HPS. anyway, good enough for that little lumen they had to bare with and their small size probably helped here a lot as well - they been virtually growing around the tubes as i used my little veg box for this experiment.

So, it was interesting, things have improved since the last time i tried to grow with floro tubes but for my indoor bud i rather stick to my HPS Jangel

hey Green, I can change that if you wish so it keeps the facts straight. I have t-5's and look for info on them so I know others will as well. Like to keep info accurate my friend.

Peace good bud-dy!!!

Love ya green

yo right, might get others confused as well as it confused me back then

never the less, it is a nice show case what you can do with simple and cheap T8 already

jangel · #54 (**permalink**) 08-06-2008, 07:57 AM

..and these are more commen and cheaper. Yes, my friend, it all adds to our wisdom.

Peace

Anyway, I have assembled several 2-lamp T8 fixtures, retrofitted with Miro2 (Highly polished aluminum) reflectors. The lamps are 50K (Daylight) @ 32W. I was going to set up the lighting next week, however I may wait a bit to see how your
efforts transpire.

See attached pics of my T8's.

So Green, let me be very clear on this one...

You have 2 ~ 4 ft 6500k florescent tubes on these plants only, or is it a 4 tube set?

I am going to steal some from my sweetie's shop so I want to make sure I steal the right ones! LOL!

I have 2 ft ones I use for my clones and I also have t-5's in 2 ft, but I need these other places.

I want to put back in veg some of my flowering plants so just want the minimum to get them vegging, not a ton of light to flower them.....

Love ya Green!
