It's always good to get something useful that would otherwise go in the bin and learning something new on any subject is always interesting.

I've still got some to harvest from the 1st try and I'll shake it again yet.

I shaked and rinsed it again a number of times and I'm still getting a bit of resin, In future it'll be a drill with a suitable mixer/paddle + 50ltr bin

This was the last shake it's getting darker and the amount is dwindling.

Shiva Shanti II was the first weed I ever grew. I actually went to the Sensi Seed shop in Amsterdam to get it. IIRC one of mine threw out a lovely purple pheno. It is a shame that you can't still get it.

EDIT: It turns out that they do, just not feminized. I am not sure I can go through all the hassle of dealing with males.

I am considering buying some SS2 as it has a special place in my heart.:D I have been looking for an all day smoke that I run over and over again from cuttings, this may well be the one.

For what its worth i done there hindu last year and its still pretty good not a great yield but nice indica buzz very very frosty but thats not daytime smoke so some of there strains still worth running why I mention it the sandlewood sweet hash tasting ones were some of the nicest ive had in decades for taste its just flavours you dont get in alot of modern strains im sure there be gems in there shiva2 as well

I’ve never tested any lighting with a meter sorry.

prior to this light I was using 400w HID setup MH for Veg and HPS for flower.

Which worked well in this area averaging between 300-450g of bud from the area depending on how many plants I was growing.

@MarsHydrofactory recommended This light to cover my screen which is almost 3ft x 3ft and this light can veg a 4x4 footprint.

the light is the FCE3000 and is my first and only venture into LED lighting so I have nothing to compare it to other than the HPS.

Hello my friends. I'm from America and I can't stand it. The people here have no taste, no sense of reason, and a very short span of history on this planet while claiming to be the best. Please accept me over there...
