Nick if U can hang onto a few of those Thai seed for me !-- They ever let me grow outside I have the climate to finish a monster like that outside !--

Hey Dog -- U asked about how to bloom it and keep that BBSL male from getting to all your girls !-- We don't have freezing winters so I first time I bred --I moved a male outside in winter and let him bloom !-- Last time or 2 I bred Trips I just moved him close to a window and let him run then brought the pollen to the intended !--- Just mist the plants with water a couple hours after pollen transfer !-- It kills any loose pollen some everybody don't get seedy !-- I learned my lesson !--Misting with water is important !-- I didn't last time and Everyone got bred from live pollen being spread around !-- And --Breed early in bloom !!-- Only the pistols that get pollenated will produce seed !-- Anyway maybe U got a window or U can do it in late fall or spring !-- U put a plant that's been in 18 hour light outside in the spring it goes to bloom before finally revegging !-- Best match the light cycle first like Bozzo taught me !

Evening all, busy day for me. Lots of starts to pot up still. I reorganized my veg room, added a fan and another Mega Garden with a second light. Blink too long and those will be full by Sunday. Tired, I got a little more to go and then I can rest....harvest is around a week or a little more away.

I'm just the keeper of the numbers. Rez change every 2 weeks on the flower room and weekly on both the mega gardens, other than that I'm fully automated and tbh it really has made life a lot simpler.

Umbra I have been keeping the CO2 @ 1200 ppm and the yields are def up, last round I hit 1.64 gpw (1.874 zips per sq/ft) and this round is looking to be close. I have my flower area split into (2). Each section is 4' x 4' grow section under an Illumitex NeoSol DS (dimable) 1kw eq (520w draw) LED fixture. So only pushing 2k but getting good results. I'm ok with that. Here is a shot of the redone veg area.

Told U we had room for more than 2 clones !-- I think we just fill this thing up after I go through the clones that didn't make the cut and make sure I don't throw the last representative of a variety away !-- When we finished this evening I show U what we did !-- Don't be counting at me now !-- I know I might be approaching the legal plant limit !--
The other pic is part of veg. Just waiting thier turn !-- Take the hest leave the rest !

One day I do some CO2 under some good lights Kraven !-- You and Umbra's set up always makes me jealous !

 

[Kraven]

Your set-up works very well for you. Umbra makes me look like a one plant one tent grow. I had a need for oil, so had to increase production. Oil makes cleaner better meds for me and my PTSD. I just had an opportunity to do something I was needing to do for years and that was to quit using flower and use oils or extracts. I have a good process now and I get a very pure oil by using my own corn distillate on my dry ice hash. I freeze off the waxes and then straining the pure ETOH /oil through to filter out all the plant matter and then just a slow evap yields me a deep honey looking oil that works very well, but quite potent also. Anyway long story short it take a lot more flowers to make enough medicine for a month. Thank you for the kind words, but tbh I'm always impressed by your grows bro.

 

[bozzo420]

Wow I was wondering about just that. Making oil out of dry ice hash. wonder if you can then make vape oil from that?

 

[Kraven]

Yep, I would have to watch the video but it is mixed with PEG at a specific ratio and 5 ml will fill 4 carts, there is a whole series on making the oil, then how to refill carts. I have a friend that is his business. All simple to do, and much cleaner medicine.


here is a quick peek...it was the first one I ran across, I'll try to find the video series that taught me.

THG got a solution to turn any concentrate into a vape solution !-- I forget what it is called !-- Kraven using that dry ice hash is the ticket !-- U not having to deal with very much water soluble compounds! -- Take that Wax off winterizing and U should have a clean oil that shouldn't need much more processing once the alcohol is gone !-- I had the chance to try the BHO hash oil cartridges and the CO2 ones and that CO2 was superior in my book !-- There is gonna be a massive vape oil market and the ability to by pass the A-hole wholesale buyers !-- I tell U straight up I get that CO2 extractor? ---I'm gonna work it !-- I can get empty 1 mil. cartridges 5 for a dollar !-- Printed back board and shrink wrap it it's packaged for retail !-- Probably outlaw retail because I don't really expect to be allowed to be legal in a pay to play cannabis industry !

 

[Keef]

I was working on Liquid Weed because I was convinced that hash oil was too thick to flow properly in a vape pen !-- I was wrong the vape pen warms it up and it flows great and will light your fire !--

 

[Keef]

Rose -- I took 8 cuts from the more squat of the Nurse Larry ( It will be the green line N.L. until we sort it out )
I only took 2-3 from the more rangy N.L. which is designated the red line N.L. --Got Master Kush locked in too !

We half way finished !-- 44 cut in one box and overflow into another !-- Half the other box is for working on genetic doubling !--

 

[Keef]

Others might take bigger cuts but it works for me !

[giggy]

morning ofc, happy fry-day yall folks have a great one. oh wake your lazy a$$e$ up and get baked.

 

[yarddog]

morning ofc. nice and cool this am. fall is in the air. you outdoor folks are getting into the action about now. kraven, you have a nce setup there. one day i will move my grow to an out building, seems the best way. every time i pass an outbuilding for sale, my gears start turning. hope yall have a great day, slow down to see the beauty in everyday life.

 

[Keef]

Morning O.F.C. !--Ugh !
What up Dog ? -- Sounds like U started taking caps and got that ADD under control !-- I'd like the grow in an outbuilding too but it is what it is !---We gonna see some nice free state outside harvest coming up !-- I'm excited to see it !

 

[Kraven]

It has been a dream of mine guys since I started making my own medicine. Got real tired of supporting organized crime so just figured out a way to step away and still get the needed meds. They are mine and I know they are healthy because I know how they are grown and processed. Only draw back is there is a bunch more to consider than just moving out to and out building. Temps, humidity, molds, fungus, bugs and disease....they are all very close now, and there is a whole new set of challenges.

One day my medicine will not be unlawful nor regulated and I will have a nice little outdoor garden yearly, till then I'm stuck hiding like I'm a criminal, I'm just a vet who needs a little medicine w/o all the ugly side effects.

 

[yarddog]

well said kraven, you speak words of many people. we are pawns in a game of money and power and control over others.
i never thought about the challenges of an outbuilding, now that you said it, there is much more than just moving your plants outside.

 

[Keef]

I saw it coming with that storm Kraven !-- It knocked your power out so U lost humidity control although U may have able to run some light !-- Humidity went sky high and PM was waiting !

When it comes to your right to effective meds !-- Did U see I said -YOUR RIGHT to grow !-- DON'T TREAD ON ME !-- We are not Outlaws just for growing !-- We been fighting this war long as I can remember !-- I swear I will see the end to this madness before I die !--- BASTIDS !

 

[Keef]

Seems like a Zombie Juice kinda day !-- Let's roll them genetic bones and see is we can't make a legend !--
Hello Nurse Larry !-- This is B.B. and Bubblicious! -- Let's work !

 

[bozzo420]

Kraven ,just wondering. Does the VA know about your pot use. I told them I'm a medical marijuana patient. They have it listed as one of my drugs. But I'm in a legal state. they are ok with it. Just wondering how it is in a non legal state with them. But they sent me to a pain specialist and he told me no pain pills if your on pot. lol All them pain specialists want to do is give shots in the back. Not going to happen. I have lived with back pain this long ,Ill make it just fine without shots in the spine.
