Hey guys. I need to get a good vacuum pump to try and help with this problem. I bought one before online and it was terrible! Almost turned me away from these devices completely as it was very expensive and didn't get the job done. I was never able to get a good seal and, therefore, no good vacuum. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, and have a great day!
Here are some progress pics of my permanent marker auto-flower grow. This is my 1st grow! I bought this as a seedling from a local place here. Repotted to a 5gal soft pot about a week and a half back. I have grow lights on a 16/8 setting. Water it every 48 hrs or so depending on moisture. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
So...I have a nice shoebox tote going...I'm piping in humidity which seems to be going well...I have a great mat under a wire rack under the inflatable tub...I sent this on Saturday night and it seems like it's just going to give me more blobs...I cased with Jiffy after waiting until the entire cake was white with myc...I have a thermometer and a humidity probe in the mix to help keep things dialed in... anybody see anything wrong with this setup?...oh btw, the foil is wrapped around the lower half to help maintain temp from the heat mat or else it just radiates out into the area and makes it harder to keep temperatures...
What's good y'all? I need some help setting this Cloudforge T3. I want to set the humidity level to between 80-85%. Anybody got any idea how? I tried finding videos on YouTube but they're all doing unboxing and assembly of the units but not showing how to actually program the thing. Your assistance is greatly appreciated!
This is the shoebox tote that I mentioned in my previous post. I think it'll be ready for me to pasteurize my jiffy seed mix tomorrow and case it. There's a rack of blobs that I can see from the side of the tote, should I pull them off before casing, or just case right over them? Or should I wait a bit more before I apply casing? I'm trying to get this grow right, it's been a real challenge to grow these TTBVI... still waiting for my 1st successful grow, then I'll know what works for me. After it's cased, I'm putting it into a monotub (the whole tote) with a humidifier attached. It'll be perched about an inch over a plant mat on a wire rack. I'm using one of those inflatable monotubs.
Ok, I have a shoebox tote going right now... it's still in the early stages of colonization...I have a block of coir and a nice size bag of jiffy seed starter... which one would be the best option for casing Pans (TTBVI)?
My plan is to pasteurize one of these in my instant pot 80... this will be my 1st time using it and 1st time pasteurizing anything...I think I know what to to do but I'm not sure...my thinking is to put whichever one I'm going to use in a few mason jars (1 pint type), no lid just foil, set it to "keep warm" (which should have it at 140 degrees at least) for 2 hours, let it cool to ambient temperature and then car with it.
Anybody got advice on this?
If I use the coir, it will need to be rehydrated with hot water first, right....but if the water is boiling, shouldn't that suffice to pasteurize it?...if not, then I can just use the method I outlined above to pasteurize it, right?
Thanks in advance for any input!
