To be honest I was thinking about this yesterday.... was going to tell you to purge the shit out the stuff... looks like that wont be an issue.

Be safe mate... do it mostly outdoors... don't blow up your nice flat. I like it there haha.

Shame I couldn't help.

 

[DST]

never thought i'd see this ^ blowing something up lol. I think just about near everyone I know who's made bho has at some point?!

I will not be blowing things up. Outdoors will be the only time I use this equipment, that's for sure.

And Jig, I am sure there will be some fun to be had with it when you are here....

 

[giggles26]

Hey Jig, Just been on a bho spending spree, yup, they ground me down finally lad, haha......thought I'd best do it properly.

among other things......gas for example, lol.
Peace, and heres to not blowing my house up
DST

That's the same vacuum I've got!

This your first time making it?

 

[ghb]

looking very serious there dst, i agree that if it is worth doing then it is worth doing the best job you can.

what are you gonna put in there first?

 

[DST]

Yes Giggles. First time.

And ghb, I have some outdoor Blue Pit that I took down early. I have some outdoor Blue Pit from last year. I have just cut a Deep Blue, so fluff and trim will go. And I also have a Pollenated Deep Blue, the full plant is going towards the cause. And then I have trim from the upcoming Blue Pit harvest. Not to start on the Dog shake that I have waiting to use. I ordered the 28g tube. And I have 2 bottles of Polish 95% alcohol sitting in case I decide to use that as well.

 

[ghb]

thanks for informative and detailed reply lol.
a mixed run would have sufficed but then a lot of the flavours going into the mix are pretty similar and by my reckoning will taste like blue pit. looking forward to see what you can do with it!.

only got a gram of liberty left now the weed i get here is no comparison

Today is day seven of 12/12 for my girls and day 14 for the clones. I will be checking and should be potting some clones today as long as there's roots to be had.

I love the background music you chose. Nice looking nuggets.

Hey guys I'm gonna start germ'n some seeds. What do you guys find successful when you're popping beans ? I wanna make sure I get this right so I don't waste any seeds

 

[Dloomis514]

soak 'em in paper towels and keep your fingers crossed for a female

PS - you will waste some seeds, it is just part of the learning process. was for me any way.

 

[Dezracer]

Some people will germ their seeds prior to planting them and some will tell you to put them straight into whatever you plan to grow them in. I put my seeds in root riot/rapid rooter style plugs with a good success ratio. I can then put them in soil or hydro, whichever I choose.

 

[SomeGuy]

agreed Dez. I used to pop them separate but have had much better luck in the rapid rooters.

 

[ghb]

my method is root riot cubes, so long as you keep them moist i don't see how you can fail.
paper towel method is a bit trickier imo

 

[Dezracer]

I agree that as long as you keep them moist it is hard to go wrong with the plugs. I have seen it go wrong first hand though and have no idea why. My buddy recently had three out of 25 seeds pop. I don't see his plants every day so I can't say what went wrong but I am sure it was operator error and not the seeds or plugs. He's a newbie to growing and seems to be making a lot of mistakes despite my coaching. I say, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink, lol.

 

[curious old fart]

I use the Burpee Super Growing pellets that are made from coconut fiber-coir. I just had 24 of 24 break ground for the southern series.

[ghb]

you mean they just never germinated at all dez?! never had that happen.
i have had it where they popped but i let them dry out before transplanting which killed them.

need to germ a load of beans myself, got the whole BB line up and will be doing a super pheno hunt for my first grow of 2015

Yeah, they never broke ground. It was the strangest thing I've seen yet when it comes to growing. We pulled some of the plugs open to see what was going on inside and the seeds looked like they started to germ and then died or something.

I've never seen anyone have as much bad luck with growing as this guy either though. He has been growing the same strains as me but has been getting crap yields and bud that's just ok. My yields haven't been there lately but I know where I went wrong and my buds are still great. I'm getting smaller nugs with the 1K bulb than with the 600 I was running but they're still really good quality.

 

[ghb]

it's all about quality, yield is a bonus if you do everything perfectly.

i'm very happy with the quality i'm growing now, it's some of the best stuff i've ever had, but it could always be better.
i just bought the biobizz range for a few plants to try out, i'll do a side by side to see if organic buds taste any better, something tells me the yield may not be as good but i'm ready for that.

 

[SomeGuy]

Hey six. Just thought I would share progress with the LED tent. These are at 7week of 12/12 but about 5.5 since showing. Will be done by thanksgiving Im guessing.

There is more in my journal.


Also!!! Here is my 400w cmh tent that is close to going live. 3x3 and I will run six plants in there.

 

[oldman60]

I agree with ghb, quality over quantity. lt isn't worth a tinkers damn if it doesn't make you happy.
I use the paper towel method and have no problems at all. The trick is no to over moisten the
seeds.
@SG, those ladies are sweet, bubba got too close to the sugar bowl.
That gets an Oldman double like.
