This was a fun project that was a few years in the making and a year later to see if they would last a season for this upload to happen. Before any of this I would bike aorund town grabbing up all the old Ikea solid pine bed slats that I could find and storing them in the basement. I have a lot of wood down there, any size worked as long as I have enough of them. The hot days to find them were the first and last of the months because that's when people where moving in/out. I also kept an eye on the free section on local online classifieds as well. The entire purpose of this was to recycle as much off the streets as I could before buying anything to finalize the project. In the end I only bought sealer, screws and some takeaway/beers. All the wood was 100% free and salvaged off the streets of Toronto saving it from the dumpster bin. After collecting all the slats for about 2 years I was playing aorund with them on how I wanted to make this work. I had previously done a little project like this before but I messed it up and the boxes where crap. did not last longer then 2 seasons, they where thin and shallow as well could not grow much of anything in them. I Was talking to my friend who is renovating their house and we brainstormed some ideas on the boxes, I found some designs I liked online and said lets make something like this out of what I have here. We tossed out a few of the design features when looking at them as it would have been wasted wood and extra work not needed. If I had more wood them maybe it could have been an option but simple was the name of the game. They taught me what I needed to know like how the miter saw and sander worked, plus all the other tools I was using. They did help out with a table saw and creating the triangle support joints in the corners, They used some pine left overs they had while making a staircase indoors. I did not feel up to the task of using a table saw given all the relatives I know who have lost a finger to them. In the end we decided the design would be three boards high and take an alternating pattern on corners. layer one short, layer 2 long, layer 3 short. Went with a galvanized and painted deck screw so it can take the weathering. Ran into some problems like making everything level as some of the boards were warped and other ones had undesired aspects like knots and tacky sticker goo I could not remove. So I used them for the base that will not been seen so much. Clamped everything down and called it a day. Once it was all done and over with, I then brought them back home from my buddies work garage and started to seal them. I went with a boiled linseed oil as its a food safe option should the wood degrade into the soil I will plant in them. I will need to reapply it to the boxes year after year but the main coat is the most important one and I put it on 3 layers with a good dry in between coats. the inside of the boxes that where coated did not degrade at all as the sun did not hit them so it will not need a new coat just the outside. Overall the end result was very impressive for myself, I've never taken a woodworking class ever and It was a near perfect outcome for me. Heavy Duty Planter Boxes for all my gardening needs. I made a last min decision to add in a plastic liner to preserve the wood even longer and stapled that into the frame. it has held up quite well and may need replacing end of 2nd or 3rd year out in the sun. Used a thick moisture wrap plastic with UV protectors in its formula. Lets see what I can grow in them this year! m0use's haus of projects - garden box edition

Hi guys! This is my first grow ever. For this round I'll have 2 Northern Light Auto from WeedSeedShop (WSS). I'm so psych. 😝😁 I'm making the most off the current situation by realizing a long lasting dream off mine. For your knowledge, I'm using a 60x60x160cm grow tent, 2 small fan, an 220m^3/h extractor (220/280) with a 400m^3/h Bull Filter. I'm also using a humidifier for day time and a dehumidifier for night time. The germination pots I used are 7x7x7cm. For the monitoring, I have a low cost meteo station with a remote sensor which is in my grow tent. I'll use BioBizz and GHE for my nuts and BioBizz Light Mix for the substrate. I'm planning to reuse it for my garden on my future grow. I bought an anaerobic composter to this effect. I hope to make around 2 ounce. Take care. Stay safe and masked.😷

Week 5 and the lady is in full pre-flower. One more week of veg and LST. I’m upping her food hoping she makes a big jump this week. I can see a little purple staring in the center of the bud 😍

Everything is going smooth I flipped her to flower because unlike the package says she is not an auto

09/26/2021 Starting week #7 of flower still picking caterpillar, and eggs of leaves, not to serious as we are on top of it. Starting the week with banana peel tea drench 2 gallons per girl, which is all she will get besides water till harvest. Still small flushes of pistils coming out I believe she (Hulk) is in final stage of flower (4) lots of orange hairs (pistils) but fresh one coming out daily albeit slower. Hopefully she fatting up in coming weeks. 09/28/2021 Week7 Day #3 Definitely seeing more calyx swelling. #1 is chunking up nicely #2 looks good little bud rot were caused from cattipillar poop! #3 coming from behind Will be last to harvest for sure.

Hey welcome back in the 6th week of flowering with the Dutch Passion’s Glueberry OG. Last week my fan broke down and I had to order some new bottles of nutrients because the CannaZym and CannaBoost/accelerator had gone empty, but yesterday I received the nutrients and a new fan! Not to long anymore before harvest! I stopped giving the PK booster, from this week on I will decrease the nutrient values for the coming 2 weeks for the last week I will perform a flush (on most of them). The Brooklyn Sunrise and the other 2 Colorado Cookies just need a week or 2 extra. The Glueberry OG is also getting very frosty, you can really see the layers and layers of trichomes on the close ups. Also, you can see the purple glow creeping on the buds, I wonder how much more purple she will get. It’s funny how you can see the 3 different pheno types of the same strain with the same characteristics only a different structure. I noticed that the buds start to get a bit to heavy for the plant which is good, volume of the buds is very dense. That’s it for now see you all next week!

Hey guys, sorry for the late update i was very busy these weeks! I took photos so you can see how they looked 8 days ago. They still didn‘t seem mature enough so i waited a little longer. This week (yesterday) I cut them down and turned on the AC. They will need to Dry for at least 12 days so i‘ll post an update as soon as I get to smoke them. I read that terpenes and canabenoids are synthesized during light hours and some people let the lights on for 24 hours before harvest. So I did exacly that. Thanks for reading my diary 🙏😊

Very fast flowering period, 57days ready for harvesting!!!

Day 14 flower: Hinall . hope we are still green and mean. This week has been an interesting one for both girls. Mimosa Lemon has stretch really well so far and inthinknhas slowed up now so I needed to work on her bushy appearance for light penetration and airflow. When digging into her, I found so much growth to decide onbi was shocked. The side branching was so productive and had tips everywhere. I took the small lower growth out to give her more energy for the mains to use and did notice the wide node lengths like a sativa grows. I will keep pulling her down so she doesn't get too tall and when I grow one in the future , I will train her very early and scrub up during that time. Glueberry has been a learning curve on watering. for the past week or so I have been assuming her ill health was over watering so held off a few feeds. seeing her worsen was a mystery but when I moved the pots around following harvesting one plant and felt how light she was. her position meant I had not been able to feel her weight before. After a drench watering and a few days , she is recovering great now thankfully. I am having a minor fungus gnat issue which I am in process of dealing with. it is shocking the amount on the sticky cards already yet I didnt notice more than a few flying around. horrible little beasts. Not a bad week now the issue is dealt with hopefully. Until next time growmies be safe and well

Putting on weight fast now in peak flower. Love the structure of the plant and really regretting not taking a cutting. Oh well, ce la vie. Will stop adding PK in the next few days before cutting back on nutrients next week then flushing for the last 2 weeks. This plant is at the back of the timelapse.

Willkommen Wie bereits angekündigt wurden die beiden Damen umgetopft. Auch Secret Source hat sich gut gemacht. Wir sind sehr stolz auf die Kämpferin 😇🍀💚 Ansonsten werden sie auch im moment durch die neue selbstangereicherte Erde nur mit angepassten Wasser was den PH Wert betrifft gegossen. Auch hier werden wir zeitnah noch etwas entlauben. Die Nahrungseinstellung wird hier noch mal sehr interessant 😅 Na gut, haben sich alle samt lange genug ausgeruht. Auch wir grins 😬 So wir wünschen noch eine angenehme Woche wie auch viel Erfolg und falls, vielen Dank fürs vorbeischauen! VG ✌️ 😎

Week 5 - This strain remains a mystery not to sure if my CalMag was too low or the temp was getting to cold ! Temps were in between 60-70 this week. Other seem sensitive to nutes while others lack nutrients. I have no idea what the trifecta plant is doing at this point seems to be all over the place. I watered each plant with .5ml CalMag to half gallon. I’ll see how they respond and update next week.

Plantitas en sus últimas semanas.

Three of the lower branches have been pollinated. She was fed the last of fox farms grow big...So far I am satisfied with the bud developments after the LST in just two weeks.

Well, as it's been 8 full weeks now it's time to change to flora, today the 24th of July 2023 I'm changing the time from vega to flora so they will take 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness thus starting the flowering phase, today I should have watered with top bloom from top crop but it ended up that I watered only with water and I'll wait for the next watering I'll already water with top bloom from top crop and let's see what these beautiful girls do, I was going to leave another time in vega another two weeks apparently i'm going to move so i don't know if i'm going to have much time left in this house so i'm going to take advantage of the time i have and already putting them to bloom

Ciao a tutti, il giorno 65 ho sostituito tutta la soluzione dei vasi. Dopo aver tirato via tutto ho aggiunto 20 litri d'acqua di rubinetto con 2ml/l di flora kleen (GHE). Non ho aggiustato il pH (che nella mia zona è superiore al 7.5 per l'acqua di rubinetto) tanto non ci sono sali disciolti da assorbire. Tra pochi giorni ci sarà la raccolta, sarà un'impresa pulire tutte quelle cime... PS le foto scattate il giorno 66 sono state fatte con un altro telefono

Hey everyone! I Started my first grow attempt March 30! went to many different dispensaries around the bay area and picked up a total of nine clones over a 2 week span. Here I am now. Some plants are further along then others . I have just been watching YouTube videos and pretty much copying what I see. I had a slight overwatering issue my very first time and ended up getting a bunch of gnats but I have since then used lost coast plant therapy and eliminated that issue. I’m not sure if I’m over doing it with the lights. I initially only had the king LED bulb red that it’s not a true 1000 W LED but more like 300 W. I ended up buying two lights off of craigslist they are older models of the mars Hydro. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you
