Jelly's Cab Adventures

Did some more defoliation tonight too on everything but the auto. I think the girls are about done getting their hair cut so to speak, I’ve left enough fans that growth shouldn’t be hindered once they recover from their haircut.

Also, looked at the undersides of the bad leaves under a microscope, no mites, bugs, or any other pests. I’m always so interested by microscopes, I could see little hairs on the underside of the leaf. Also what looked like mini trichromes already :slight_smile:

Sorry @legalcanada I dont get on here much (as you can see lol)
@Jellypowered If you can get it delivered to where you are at a reasonable cost -do it. You wont be disappointed with the results in hydro. Im currently running MC alone with no P-K boosters or anything. Mega Crop, pH adjusted tap water and H2o2 -thats it and its killing it compared to any 3 part Ive ever run & Im no spring chicken.
Feeding for pennies on the dollar, it mixes down like tea with no sediments, low salt buildups, wont plug drippers/emitters etc., simple 1 part nutrient, doesnt need to be agitated or circulated like a lot of dry nutrients in hydro, pH stable. I really have nothing negative to say about it other than it smells like baby shit and burnt vitamins lol.
Even that is gone once you mix it. It doesn’t get any easier than this, but you can always freak the recipe a little if you choose by adding boosters etc. Im running exactly how they recommend on the feeding chart on the website too. If you are waiting on a good report, this is it. Pull the trigger my friend.
Any questions about it, feel free to ask. It’ll give me an excuse to get on here more :grin:

yes, when i was growing with the sample bag i was feeding maybe 1.5x the feeding chart but my plants were extremely over vegged and huge for just starting flower. i imagine normally the recommended dosages would have been fine otherwise. and i actually grew accustomed to the smell, i’d smell the bag every time i fed :upside_down:

i saw someone mention something about ordering a pallet to sell in canada, i sure hope they do!!

Hey thanks!!! After the holidays settle down, I’m ordering a bag.

Got home off my trip, low and behold my lights were flickering. I thought maybe the el-cheapo digital timer wasn’t engaging fully so I tried plugging my lights directly into the power strip. Fuse inside the ELCHEAPO power supply blew. I didn’t think anything of it, so I opened it up, replaced the fuse (its only a 5amp fuse) and plugged it in… blew it immediatley the lights didn’t even light up. I guess my going cheap on the power supply is kicking me in the ass. I’m supposed to leave friday for christmas traveling, and there’s no way I can get a meanwell here in time.

If its not one thing its another, when it rains it pours, Etc etc blah blah bitch moan whine and … ok i’m done lol.

Where can I get a temporary power supply to hold me over somewhere locally? Even 24v 10a would hold me over till I could order the meanwell after the holidays.

Not in my neck of the woods. There’s no such thing as overnight shipping this far out in the sticks. One of the hazards of living out in BFE. It wouldn’t get here until monday, Sometimes Saturday delivery isn’t offered by the big guys (digikey/mouser/etc)

If I ordered tonight, the flow would go like this
Thursday would be processing day, If i get lucky it might ship.
Friday Evening by 8pm (and its always 6-8pm, never early) it’d get here and I wouldn’t be here, I have to leave friday by noon to make my schedule for the holidays.

I’m literally fucked.

what wattage / ampage do you actually need, walmart might have that as well. if those drivers aren’t able to be picked up in time maybe there’s some type of electronic product off the shelf you can take the power supply out of. i’m not sure what, i don’t know enough about electronics like that. some type of electronics store might have something you could use or know how to help you if one is near by

I will figure something out. Gotta figure it out before noon tomorrow, lights on at noon and I need them to work lol.

@legalcanada I actually need something like HLG-480H-24A (dimmed down of course)
Checked shipping options for the things you linked, Fastest they quote anything getting here is Dec 28th.

Really hope you get it all figured out, ain’t nobody got time to that!

Also just snagged a 230g MC for the 2.77 ship price - cantvreally go wrong to give it a go

there is no walmart near you for in store pickup?

worst comes to worst you could always set up your old fixture for while you are gone right?

In store pickup only works for items sold by Walmart right? The items you linked are sold by third party.

Overnight shipping is 62$ I’m a cheap ass lol.

If I have to yes, I will install my screw in fixture lol. I’ll see what I can find tomorrow morning in town.

Jelly, I bet you grew some pretty fine weed with those screw in LEDs!!!

I actually haven’t used them to completion, but I’ve seen plenty of people use them, and grow great flowers with them.

If I can’t find anything tomorrow I’ll rig them back up until my new shiny meanwell comes in. :slight_smile:

I used them and though I’m not a great grower, they did grow weed. I’m hoping I can now do better with my new setup. If you can’t find anything else they’ll surely see you thru till you do. All the best to ya my friend…
