There's some Strawberry Rhino I hope germ for U I think there's also a single feminized seed in one bottle !-- Take care of her ! - Plenty stuff to play with ! Some may germ better than others but they should keep U busy over the winter ! --See if we can slide these seed under that invisible border ? -- I'm betting we can !

 

[Keef]

This is proof I need to be supervised closer !--

Keef I can't wait it's going to be like Christmas Your wine sounds like it's going to be pretty damn tasty

 

[Keef]

Yup Bud !-- I don't drink anymore but I have to taste it before I turn the wild woman loose on it !-- Turns out that about 1 part wine to 2 parts of my wine concentrate makes a tasty fruit "brandy" for lack of another word !-- I got to make another batch apple pie wine to cut that concentrate with !-- The primary fermenter in the middle with the white looking stuff ? -- 3 --32 oz cans of pears in heavy syrup --Put them in the blender -added them and 3 cups of sugar into a 3 gallon water bottle add a pack of yeast !---That water bottle on the end with pink liquid in it -- Strawberry -Watermelon Punch concentrate -water -sugar and yeast !- Done for a couple weeks then filter out fruit !-- After that it is just siphoning off the wine from the sediment into a fresh bottle once in awhile !-- After about a month I can put a gallon in the freezer to make a wine concentrate !- Then 2 parts concentrate to 1 part mother wine !-- Then kill the yeast !-- balances out nicely -- but it is not wine anymore !

 

[Budlight]

Keef I'll bet the one made with pears is going to be amazing

 

[Keef]

Gonna take a while to clear it up but I know how !-- but Yeah I think the pear will be da bomb too !-- I clear it up and reduce a gallon down to about 750 mils it makes that fruit pop and the alcohol be sneaking up on U !-- I'm calling it a night !-- See what kinda trouble I can get in tommorrow!

While checking the grow last night I noticed some in bloom are getting some colour. Under side of the leaves are turning purple along with some of the bud. Those nighttime temps in the 50's-60's I think.

 

[Keef]

Morning O.F.C. !-- I got a mind fog this morning ! --
Yo Dog -- It's gonna be real pretty I bet !-- Let me know when your package arrives !-- Hope U find a keeper !

 

[Keef]

We had winter last night --hit 63 !-- Back up to mid 80s later !
Those seed I sent out -- U guys might be able to have better germ rate if you'll "scarify" those seed !-- Several ways to do it -- I use a toilet paper tube -- cut a piece of fine sandpaper to line the inside of the tube with grit showing inside the tube !-- I got these pill bottle caps that cover both ends of the tube -- Put the seed inside and roll them around for awhile !-- It scratches off some of the wax and stuff on the seed allowing water to soak in easier and the seed she'll to split easier so the sprout can open the shell easier !
There's other ways and some even soak seed in a peroxide solution but I don't remember the strength and stuff !-- I've never done it ! -- Use your best seed starting technique on these seed !-- The BPU-X-B.B. they ain't like that !-- They only a few months old !-- Look at them funny and they sprout !

 

[Budlight]

Good morning everyone hopefully everyone is off to a great start Keef I will take your advice on scuffing those seeds

 

[Keef]

I sent out plenty of those BPU-X-B.B. seed for ya'll to play with cause I want ya'll to help me find something -- BPU-X-B.B = ( Black Berry Kush -- Purple Citral -- Uzbekistan hashplant) --- x--- Blueberry Blast = Super Silver Haze -x- Blueberry )--- Anyway there's all sorts of possibilities in those genetics !-- Somewhere in those seed should be a frosty purple blackberry !-- A frosty purple blueberry would be a prize too ! -- So U don't get one girl and quit !-- The girls gonna have differences !-- I don't remember where they went but They's some GDP- x- BPU on the way !-- She gonna be beautiful in bloom !-- No doubt about the potency !

Just passed the 3 week mark and I am awe struck. In the past 5 days, the bud size has grown 4x easily. I personally have never seen buds grow like this. Back East, I was never concerned about yield. I did an organic soil grow with tons of microbes. It wasn't just a way to grow cannabis, it was a mindset.
You can tell through out the grow, how the plants look and how healthy they are as an indication of the final bud formation. The internodal spacing and how they start to stack and then begin to fill in. I was never able to do this with the organic setup. Without a doubt, the de bulbs make that much of a difference. The CO2 and biowave only feed the insane growth and flowering levels. All I can say is, OMG!

 

[yarddog]

keef, i'll start mining for a couple keepers as soon as santa drops them off.
wow umbra, its the small things that throw the biggest stick in the spokes.

 

[Budlight]

Umbra I am so happy to hear that everything is working out for you I can't wait to see your final pictures should be mind blowing by the sounds of things

 

[umbra]

Hey Dog, sometimes it is. This tahoe is a pretty squat plant with gigantic leaves. I trimmed it to get 8 colas per plant. They will end up about 18" each. Density is there already. They are CO2 guzzlers for sure. Tank of propane every 7 days.

 

[Budlight]

I sent out plenty of those BPU-X-B.B. seed for ya'll to play with cause I want ya'll to help me find something -- BPU-X-B.B = ( Black Berry Kush -- Purple Citral -- Uzbekistan hashplant) --- x--- Blueberry Blast = Super Silver Haze -x- Blueberry )--- Anyway there's all sorts of possibilities in those genetics !-- Somewhere in those seed should be a frosty purple blackberry !-- A frosty purple blueberry would be a prize too ! -- So U don't get one girl and quit !-- The girls gonna have differences !-- I don't remember where they went but They's some GDP- x- BPU on the way !-- She gonna be beautiful in bloom !-- No doubt about the potency !

It's driving me crazy waiting for these things and I know I have at least another week to go

Far from the finish Bud. Lots of things can go wrong between now and harvest, but I'm happy. No I'm very happy. :farm::banana::icon_smile:

 

[Keef]

I know that's true when those root bugs ( spit-spit) moved in first indication was deficiencies showing up in the leaves !- So U add more or less of that then it just gets worse !-- A plant showing serial different things at the same time !-- I got this bald spot where I pulled it out in frustration !-- Then D.D. discovered the slimy bastids but by then the damage was done !-- Cut the tops off some so I wouldn't loose the strain and tossed everything !--Basically had to start over !-- Got Beneficial nematodes that are not like a spray where if U miss some they repopulate !-- Todes will actively hunt them down and eat them alive !-- Gives me a warm fuzzy feeling to know that !-- So no bugs allowed !
I feel like now that I'm to the point I can protect my plants I can begin to work on quality and quantity !-- This ain't a bad place to start !-- B.B. got me rocking this morning !

 

[Budlight]

Umbra I have high confidence in you my friend I'm positive this one is going to be mind blowing I can feel it

 

[Keef]

Umbra can rock it Bud ! -- He just went thru one of those confidence slumps !-- He's coming out of it even stronger !-- He got this thing called the Oregon Lemon --Potent sweet lemon flavored weed !-- Several varieties U can't even buy !-- He recently aquired something called -- Golden Ticket clone and he won't even tell me anything about it ! --He got it going on !
