6 months into my first deflasking...how am I doing?

[tnyr5]

Special stuff; secret stuff ;-).

 

[tnyr5]

Alright, alright. I'll be nice, but I'm only linking the research; developing a method from it is up to you.

Are you growing in CO2 enriched environment? That was innovative! Really like the idea, but how to do in practise? You have some really good results here, I must admit however your growth rate ambitions are too low I have flowered paphs 18 months after deflaskoke:
Cannot deny that I probably would not be able to copy these results, so....congratulations again.
And then tell the full story......

 

[tnyr5]

I will...after the Fritz Schomburgs bloom oke: ( and you know perfectly well that no kovachii hybrid is going to bloom in 18 months )

I will say this, you're going to laugh when you see how I did it, if you don't figure it out before then.

 

[Bjorn]

Perhaps you have been fermenting something next to it?

 

[NYEric]

There was another grower here who was using CO2 in his GH.

 

[Happypaphy7]

Dry ice??
But then how do you know/control the right amount of carbon dioxide in the growing room?
Ok, will wait til you are ready to tell.

 

[NYEric]

You can buy bottles of CO2 and there is a cheap dispersion system used for bedbug issues (it attracts them I think)!

co2 enrichment

We all give off around 4% CO2 in our breath.
Maybe you just have to live with your plants?

Getting close

 

[Linus_Cello]

yeast? bread? beer?

 

[Denver]

I am super intrigued! I just got my flasklings from Peruflora yesterday (I'll post pictures tonight hopefully). AND I have been wanting to get back into homebrewing...

Or he has his dogs and cats all living in the same room with his seedlings.
Maybe even birds! Lots of them!

 

[Happypaphy7]

yeast? bread? beer?

and kombucha? along with vinegar, sauerkraut and kimchee?? hahaha
can't imagine living in such a room with all the smell though.

 

[Dandrobium]

Ok, I'm intrigued by this too! After looking into it, I'm venturing a guess that it is something like this: http://www.mygreenplanet.com/product/exhale-c02-bags/

I think I may try these slow-release CO2 bags as I have a vinyl cover for my grow shelving to keep in the heat (also have heat mats). This would also help in keeping the CO2 contained within the grow space.

Your method, whatever it is oke: , is obviously working very well!

 

[tnyr5]

Getting warmer, sort of.

 

[tnyr5]

It's nearly time.

 

[Bjorn]

Those are the JF's?

 

[tnyr5]

Indeed

 

[Bjorn]

Looks good! And what a growth speed! Now tell about those CO2 things......
