The bloom plants are 1.4 meters tall!

soo tired! I moved the big bud into bloom. 70 more days until harvest! LOL! Tomorrow I check the EC and bump it accordingly.

I got a public service announcement:
Stop putting bleach and hydrogen peroxide in your hydroponics system. It’s not helping.

If anyone is feeling brave and wants to present a reason to add that crud - go ahead. I’m chalk full of critical thinking energy today!
I read a write-up, that was bustling with authority!!!
Peroxide increases nutrient uptake! Peroxide kills pathogens! Peroxide provides oxygen!
hah, are they trying to make me laugh? I have a quick claim as well:
Buying peroxide wastes your money.
ok! How the hell do I know this? Simple answer: I used to do that.
Peroxide increases nutrient uptake. Really? So…you got like some kind of evidence? Because I have a side-by-side test that proves otherwise.
Peroxide kills pathogens. Well, at least this is partially true. The problem really is… it doesn’t kill PLANT pathogens. I mean come on people. I’m doing to wipe out… mildew with it? fungus gnats? Hilariously the claim is “it fights root rot and fungus” as if those are separate issues…grrr.
Peroxide provides oxygen! Nice claim, turds. How many ppm of oxygen can I expect to get from 30ml of peroxide in a bucket of water? Enough to make my plant survive 24 hours? Especially at 30C… the peroxide is going to make the plant live?
Hell, no! Hydrogen peroxide has NEVER been the thing that makes my plants thrive. A carefully controlled environment on the other hand, enables my plants to thrive.
I used to use those air stones and hydrogen peroxide. If you don’t check on them, they will die from lack of oxygen when the stone clogs and fails, and the oxygen runs out. Nothing will turn back that clock, including peroxide.


I changed the location of the seedlings for now. They have an entire light to themselves until I plant that new crop. They are enjoying the direct light heh heh.

here’s the entire bloom room. You can see all three sets of plants. I measured the height of the tallest plant at 1.4meters.

oh, I didn’t say anything about adding bleach except “don’t do it”. So don’t add bleach, but if you really want to see the effect bleach has on a plant you can look it up. I assure you it’s as dangerous as they claim. Bleach doesn’t help your plant grow.


holy! shite! I was scrubbin, and cleanin. Plantin and fertin! The large ass clone there is the female from the frankenpant. aka meat banger. The rest are meat breath! Putting them off to the side seems to have held them back from growing, but now they are ready to hit the highway.
heh heh pops put his money on both of those seedlings are male.

Won’t be too much longer before I can sex them for sure. Exciting!

clone machine looks brand fuckin’ new! Nothing like some super hot water and a little elbow grease. I’ll pump off a couple of new batches soon.

You catch many orbs??

I’m definitely the king of back scatter. It’s because I take all those photos at lights out, using a flash and pointing it quite a distance. The chances of catching “some” tiny object in the flash and reflecting the light back from a strange point in space, appears to be quite good!

ahh fuck it was another laugh in my todays series of humorous crap!


I know everyone has seen that cartoon I drew but I had to paste it here as well. The best use of my skills one day this lady drove her car through the front of this building and scraped some paint off my car in the process. The cop handed out witness reports and I drew this hilarious fucking cartoon of an old lady driving through the front of the building. Even the cop had to have a quick laugh.

lol it’s been probably 20 years since I drew a crazy cartoon, I forgot how entertaining it was!


I drew… probably thousands of them. I have hundreds of those cartoons laying around here. I spent probably a couple of years drawing them, but I’m rusty as fuck. Pens are all dried up. But, a quick sketch will still make me laugh. ok! Veg room! Things are pumping, and there’s another node on the seedlings. Two more nodes I can use my eyes to see what sex it is. If not, I can always fall back on the microscope, that thing will reveal the sex even when the plant doesn’t want to.
