I know...I know. Busy alot lately. I should be on more often from now on. I'll probably start a thread soon to show my LR2's, they are about a week away from harvest.

autoflowers? how long they been growin?

They have been growing for about 7 1/2 weeks, but they seem a little ahead compared to my other grows.

damn thats quick... my NL been veggin almost 5 weeks and theyre only 8 inches...

Have you grown LR? For all the shit they get from people, they are pretty cool. I have some NL's I just started a couple days ago.

i actually picked up a carbon filter from ebay through HTGS that only ran me 45 bucks. It was as big as the ELF filter. N ill be usin the duct fan to blow air through that - 19.95, so its actually a pretty decent deal, compared to spendin 150 on the package, even though the package comes with the centrifugal fan.

im also contemplating pickin up a 400w HPS ballast n gettin a HPS bulb n MH conversion bulb for it too just in case. I found 400 w light packages that run pretty cheap, but ill probably just get the ballast, socket n bulbs cuz ill already have two reflectors (cooltube and the standard wing). Havin a "just in case" plan would probably be a good idea considering the space i have eh? lol

nah ive never grow those chunky. i have two fem lowlife ak47 seeds though. just dont know when ill ever get around to growing them with their crazy light schedule...

Back up is nice... for sure..

I think you are doing the right thing with the 600 and the cool tube... whatever fan you end up using... make sure it's a kick ass one...
A friend of mine has a huge fan on his 8" cool tube and he can put his light almost as close a fluorescent... like 6 inches or so...

Hope your shit gets there fast... I've been waiting for a week now....

Cheers ...

yeah all my equipment will be here within a week, but im starting to worry about my seeds. Yesterday i thought would be the day that they started movin around in the states, but i checked the tracking this morning and it says the same thing its said for the last two days. preparing package to be shipped to the US. Now, when it reaches customs i should get a email saying that its at customs right? it would specifically say customs??

From what I heard it says NY, then cuts off from there.

no you will not get an email when it gets to customs. if you track it through USPS then it should show a date it arrived in NY then it will usually take 5-7 days from there...

I stand corrected. How long do seeds take roughly if you send money order?

no idea ive always used a credit card... dont feel safe mailing in money

Ya, I'm kind of uneasy too, so I'm hoping a friend of mine with a card will go to a club and buy some seeds. Sorry K1, dont mean to hi-jack you. I had another question on a strain, so I'll direct this to you, as I don't want to continue hi-jacking it. I would love to see you grow this strain.

Blue Mystic Marijuana Seeds

Any ideas about if this would be a good strain K1?

haha i just bought those...

yeh im on the blue-purp kick myself. After i ordered the twilight seeds, i just got it in my head that i want me a sea of purp growin at once, so im bout to order blue mystic, blueberry, whiteberry(i know, not purp but oh well, lol), n im still lookin for some other nice lookin purp strains.


So anyways, when your trackin your seeds, basically your sayin that usps says that the original poster is preparing the item for shipment until it reaches NY?? n then it takes a week to get to me from there? if so, then i can breathe a little easier cuz fuckin i bin worried that since it said the same thing for 2 days straight it fuckin got got. *relief*

Grow this.

Lol what is "this"?

Yo King if you've got that cool tube coming, then the 600w will kick ass! Your plants will be lovin all the light! It sounds like you have come from humble beginings, and stepped up to the plate quite well! GL with it all can't wait for more pics!
