I got an a/c dehumidifier and it made a huge difference. I highly recommend it especially in the later part of flowering. I got bud rot on my first Critical Mass run and then I left the dehumidifier on 24/7 and didn't have it the second run.

That good to know, i wanted to gravitate towards that option yet "real estate" is at a prime in one of these get ups.

wish u could ditch the tent, bro.. it's holdin u back.. i'd hate to have to deal with the limitations u have to put up with. anythings better than growin in a baggie,eh?...

I know, its unkown territory for me as i am used to a much larger, permanent space where i can actually walk into, but unfortunately at present its the best home i can give them for time being. Onward and Upward I always say.

whats wrong with the tent i never grew in one but cant you just vent it betterso you get better cirulation that should cure that problem my vent system went down for one day during haze flowering and it caused a fungus problem i had to take care of right away

Thats the problem basically, i undershot the ventilation needs of growing in one of these, I have increased ventilation and circulation to the max and am hoping for the best next time. Also i am running the exaust 24/7 now because i am thinking the ambient air is airconditioned and inside the tent remained warm and stagnent during the lights out and caused condensation, high humidity, stagnent air, and mold. I wouldve never forsaw the vent needs of a tent until experiencing it myself.

Cheers mate!

Cheers BucketBong! Yeah I should probably pop the few $ to moniter the situation a little better eh? Ive been shooting for big colas and lots of them, I certainly could reduce the plant numbers and bud size by pruning but hey, can ya blame me? Its a big bud hybrid! LOL

hey man..thx for this thread The buds look delicious and I bet they were pretty speedy when toked! Better to harvest early then have to sift through moldy buds.
I have a 5 x 5 tent in a pretty high humidity area. Six inch inline is a must..minimum of 400 cfm's...and the light (usually a 1K but sometimes I put an additional 400 in there) is always air cooled. If I don't air cool the reflector (I can only do this in winter) I have LOTS of fresh air coming in.
Good luck...the buds look great

Some good convo here, thanks for dropping some knowledge on us ON, much appreciated. On the bubbling thing, i think its a good idea no matter what nutes you are using because it does take some time to fully disperse and become soluable(rather than just mixed up 10 minutes ago). Plus your water gets nice and airated.

I am no expert ON but do you think Chana and myself would benifit from adding some "compost tea" to our regimine? Of course assuming we are not useing salt based ferts. Also at what point and how often? Or would it be best to just get some voodoo juice or something similar?

Sorry for all the question there buddy, just trying to wrap my brain around this a little better

Hi itsbenfun,

No problem, just a subject I'm always learning about.

You and Mr. Masala would definitely benefit from areated compost tea (ACT). You can use ACT anytime and to wet your mix before use. In small pots I'd say every 10-14 days. Compost tea blows voodoo juice out of the water! Way better and cheaper.

Questions are good and I like to help where I can. You all have so much knowledge of this plant and indoor gardening(fairly new to me). So I'll have lots of questions too.

Peace + Respect

Thanks for the reply bud. I got my soil all mixed up, a few buckets and bubblers ready to go! Cant wait to try this out. Your advice is much appreciated ON.

Peace and Respect to all you guys, I really appreciate everyone chimeing in lending a helping hand to fix the issues i had with this grow and all the kind words. The Pink Floyd marches on, improved grow space and 100% organic.

Hey Itsbenfun,

Nice grow man, I`m jealous of your Hazy Beaded pheno!!

I got 4 keepers from my PF run

in terms of flavour I have three that taste similar, sour and very full bodied with varying, minimal degree`s of (what I believe is) skunk/afghan influence.

In one of the three plants the sk/af influence in the flavour seems to me to be allmost absent. It is my favorite weed to smoke. it is so full bodied and satisfying. (feel I should note that PF has the highest % haze influance of any plant I have grown so I`m not comparing to Nevs haze here)

It has a pleasing and pungent smell although, strangly, this pleasing smell could definatly be described, as I believe it has been many times before, as "Warm Piss".

My last plant has a noticably differant aroma, I believe it could be the aroma of the Haze A male, could well be described as spicy incense imo. but it does not seem to translate to the flavour for me yet

I`m gonna mega flush this plant on the next run `til the leaves turn white in an attempt to bring this flavour out!

I gotta say, none of my plants look as sativa expressive as your Hazy bead pheno, have you had the pleasure of smoking her yet??

Good marketing by MNS in my opinion offering the Rock and Rollers at £60 they blow pretty much everything else i`ve got out of the water so I now want to buy Nev`s haze and Mango haze to search for more refined haze flavours/ effects!

Hey Squalid, Thanks man, much appreciated. I agree the PF is great smoke! Very flavourfull and potency is fantastic! The flavours and smells do vary from pheno to pheno, fruity, spicy, incense, piss, and not always translating from smell to flavour. I am going to try flushing alot more with these also.

I have smoked that hazy beaded pheno, and although she is a low yeilder the potency is first class! All incense and spice with a touch of sweetness on the taste. I feel the need to share a story about her, i busted some out one night with a buch of friends, i was packing one hitters and the first person couldnt even finish it, so i pack a fresh one and the second person couldnt finish it, these are all seasoned smokers by the way, now the people who havnt gotten one yet are starting to wonder what the hell is going on here, this goes on and on, no one can even finish a single one hitter! Everyone was high like it was there first time, laughing fits and all. I love tearing peoples heads off like that

I will get some more pics flowing here soon, been busy, but they are doing good. Ive got 32 going for sensimelia and a bunch of others for making F2s and im also crossing PF to early queen and i have an amazing original haze x skunk #1 male i want to hit a few PF phenos with especially the hazy beaded one

So after the air circulation improvements all is well. At about 11 weeks. I will harvest within 2 weeks.
