nah I just have been stock pilling for a few years and I also give a lot out! i didn't think it was possible to either but now I know. I already got the hippy headband to pop in less than 24 hours. I germed them in soaked paper towels inside a plastic bag in between two saucers on a heat pad under a humidity dome. and then put the popped seeds in root riots and when they popped up out of the root riots I transplanted to rockwool and flooded them to much. The last personal grow I did was great white shark and it was done in november since then I have been helping with the co-op grow. I don't really have that many beans maybe 57 as of now.

if you wait for the promotions on the tude at the beginning of the month you can a lot for free.

The beginning of this month I got 29 beans for $86 dollars.

Its my first personal grow using rockwool, on the co-op the main dude does all the rockwool prep so I figured it was just like all hydro, not the case its more like soil.

I have:
8 hippy headband (not counting what is germing)
3 double white
6 grape 13
6 white grapes
2 BLZ bud
3 NYC HP 13
12 Jack O nesia
2 Gogi OG
1 grapefruit
1 supercheese express
1 blueberry headband
1 white widow x big bud
1 chocolate heaven
1 Snowcap LA (limited edition)
1 cheese candy auto
1 critical plus
2 bubba kush
1 white romulan x biker

So 53 to be exact.
Well if the zombie apocalypse ever comes you will have a lot of genes to start fresh. It must be so relaxing to not have to worry about the law when it comes to growing, plus you have access to any cut you want in cali. Fuck would you be willing to house and shelter an illegal immigrant who can speak perfect english for a change :P

Getting ready to pull the extremas down, aiming for saturday (day 68 12/12) although one won't be as ripe as I would like, I think it would go 75-77 days for some amber trichs. Going to try drying it with the leaves on for the first time, apparently the buds dry slower and more evenly and they taste a lot better. Well thats the plan anyway.

I generally make butter with all my trim and the crappy popcorn nugs, was considering bubble hash this time round but I'm stink so no cash for bubble bags. Depends if I can be bothered making it this time round, may just throw the trim into the compost bin. Bubble it probably the cleanest way to extract what you want from the plant though.

I quit getting cuts had a few times were I ended up with someone elses problems ie fungus/pests because they fucked off on the hygiene so I get beans which you can get at dispensaries but the tude at promotion time at the beginning of each month is the shit. I didn't quite get what I wanted except the blueberry headband, goji og, white romulan x biker, chocolate heaven and snowcap LA. I know dudes that literally have a few thousand beans and have them in alphabetic order by strain, breeder, reg, fem, auto, but then again they do 100 - 200 plant runs at a time. It is there full time job to say the least.

Oh I got the hippy headband to pop in less than 24 hours and put them in root riot plugs and they have already broke ground and shed the seed shell fuckin hazeman seeds are aggressive. I will pay attention to detail this time I do not want to fuck this one up.

Sure man come on out you can help me build another grow and share in the duties!

I make butter as well with trim, its good to have some edibles for when you go out to eat and watch a movie because you are going to be high for about 5 hours.

anybody want to make a wager on how many males I get out of four? I say 2 I hope only two.

What's the craic lads, how's everyone gettin on. It's been a while...

Any one have any look with autos outdoors? Picked up a pack of auto mazar from Dutch passion, going to give them a lash as soon as the cold spell leaves us. Got some regs freisin dew from dp as well.

Hoping for a half decent yield this year, last years was a proper mess.
mazar is some great smoke and yeah you can definitely grow autos outdoors it has rudaralis in it and that all grows outdoors. it will get big and bushy as well. good luck my friend.

Hi buddy, sure has been a while... nice to see a old veteran once in a while..

Not really done autos outdoor yet, except one plant many moons ago that i would put out on a sunny day.. bit like the film "Leon"..!
Im hoping to sort something this year, perhaps 5 nice ones(not sure of strain yet) and hopefully the harvest will last me 12 months so as i dont have to do indoor.. (Indoor: Missus no happy + Im getting a pain in me bollocks with it too)

I did get a variety of seeds from pick and pix seeds, probably do the same again... which reminds me i should get my boots on ordering soon...

Hopefully you can get 4 females MD! Think positive. I know what mean about the growing being a pain, sometimes I could do with a bit of time to myself rather than thinking "I have to get home to water the plants" DWC will be less work and hopefully can go a few days without too much attention. Few pics of the plants here before the chop, will be day 67 12/12. Smells like pure chem in here, can't wait to get them down, dried, cured and smoked. Trimmed off the fan leaves to make it easier to chop down tomorrow, less work makes me happier.

Lovely grow... A great example of what a scrog grow can harvest..!
Indeed scrogs are the way forward for maximum yield, and it isn't any more effort for me because now I don't have to tie up the plants. The scrog offers great support for all those floppy stems. Also it wasn't filled as much as it should have been, next grow I will try to fill the screen almost 100% with colas, big sativa colas. I can see 20 oz in this space with a 600

No idea what the yield will be imo, the buds are seriously dense but drying may take a lot of weight out of them. I know 2 of the colas are half oz colas, at last count there were 45+ colas in there.

amazing job my friend! Just beautiful is all I can say, hope the smoke is as good as the herb looks, picture perfect. I had never heard of the strain but it looks like a keeper! Nice use of scrog and nice use of the method of lollipopping, taking the lowers off!

is the strain extrema?

Thanks for the compliments pal, everything on the grow went smooth, it's nice when things just go to plan. They are extrema fems from sannies, these 2 are chemdawg leaning phenos, the herijuana phenos finish quicker and have stronger stems. It's supposed to be more potent than the herijuana which I have tried before so when it's cured I'll make a judgement.

Hey mdjenks, quick question about the lucas formula, how soon do you give the girls full strength lucas formula? my seedling has 3 sets of leaves but not very big yet, i gave it very mild dose 1/4 strength ( 0.6 EC ) and it burned very slightly so i dont wanna rush in just yet with 8ml micro and 16ml of bloom. also when you add the lucas to ro water what ec do you get? its saposed to be the same world wide with ro water and just wondering if you're ec is around 2.4 when you add 8micro and 16 bloom to 1 gallon of ro?

I am taking down the amneisa tonight ready or not here i come! its filling out and it could do with another few days id say but i need the room so its coming down,

weed2green you should start doing some reading and research and find out whats best for you as nobody knows what is best for you or what you want, as for shops i buy online from thebigshop free delivery by courier to ireland and very quick, as for lights and soil thats somthing you should prity much know already if your serious about giving growing a go, 600watt hps is best but alot of people cant handle it for heat ect i use a 400watt hps, some people use cfl's for a first grow,

half day friday again for me so gonna get ready for the old chop chop later ill take pics of the buds for ya all

Lastly iamaaror very nice again you put us to shame!
