ARTofMAKINGfire's SEALED SUPER ROOM

[dramamine]

Shaping up nicely.

 

[Jcue81]

Room is looking great, following along.

 

[ARTofMAKINGfire]

We got a door up top and a layer of paint.

Time to repipe the refrigerant lineset above the drop cieling. What fun!!

And of course the evaporator. Always have to do tight work. Takes time and effort. Hope I'm not running out of either.

Condensate pump adapter fitting. 5/8" POLY TUBE to 3/4" PVC. Fuckery to find.

She's looking nice and tight though. Daddy likey.

Looking good mang !
Slowly but surely coming along real proper like

 

[ARTofMAKINGfire]

As promised..... PAINT!

I know I have a boo boo. I will patch it correctly. I will be using that inline fan to exchange air in between the veg and flower chamber. It will be controlled by a thermostat via a fan relay.

I fed the red wigglers a few melon cores... every single one sprouted. Just took a scissor and trimmed them all... they ate that as well as loved that shit. Not even a seed shell left behind you must love it.

Just popped several packs. Top Dawg Seeds gifted to me by none other than Money Mike himself. Blessed are you who read these words. This shit still goes down for real. Also popped a pack from People Under The Stairs which also came into my possession without payment. It all happens for a reason people. Just find your reason. A be a good wizard.

China kills more than 100K young people in the USA annually but GOD DAMMIT they make a damn good lioght bulb with slave labor for half the price! What can I say? I've said enough.

All follow by my all hallowed fathers' last words to me...

Everything I touch IS LOVE because of you pops.

I was wondering what beans ya got
I got a nice top dawg dirty taxi male coming my way and I'm gonna let him have his way with any keepers I find in the beans I popped. And maybe everything else too haha

You looking for or keeping any males around ?

Hey man, just fyi. That San Pedro looks to be a PC (predominant cultivar) type. They aren't really worth the effort, for the alk content. But they are pretty, and hardy. I made the mistake of buying PC as my first SP cactus, but since then I've accumulated quite a few different strains. Some are mostly just for looks, some are more sacramental.

Some good ones to grab, if you can;
-TBM-B
-Ugunbodede
-SS-02
-Torres y Torres
-Piano Man
-Lumberjack

The list goes on... but those are a few special types. And in general most Bridgessi will be better for sacramental use than Pachanoi's will. There are exceptions, that's just a general rule of thumb.

A few of mine this summer after moving back outside. Some got etiolated a bit, but that's okay.

Thank you for this information! I was under the impression that pachanoi were preferred for sacramental use... I will certainly look into those cultivars you mention as my intention is to cultivate a sacrament. (damn. shouldn't that ALWAYS be the goal?)

Do you have any good sources for the aforementioned varities?

 

[ARTofMAKINGfire]

This is the way.

The sumoner controls the sumoneE. Unless of course the sumoner is foolish - practicing beyond his means and abilities. In which case he perhaps deserves everything he recieves. UREAPwhatUSOW as a WISE MAN once said...

There are several places to source them from. Probably the easiest is reddit/r/sanpedrocactusforsale

Also, if you really want to go down the rabbit hole, check out Trouts Notes (just google it). So much information! This guy lives and breathes cacti, specifically the good ones.

Also also, I would avoid the current "hype" cuts (it works just like the weed community does). They're always overpriced, and lots of the older, established strains are just as good. But people always want the "new new". Everything I listed above, except for Piano Man, have been around for years, and are fairly reasonable. TBM-B, and TBM-C are probably the strongest out there, but also the slowest growing...

I would start with one or two cuttings each, of maybe 3-4 varieties. In 2-3 years, you will have enough to be self sustaining forever. Provided you keep it to a couple sessions a year. It can become an all consuming hobby if you let it. So try to keep yourself in check. Don't do what I did, and spend $1,500 assembling a collection in one season. Because soon enough you will have more than you want to manage.

Thank you. I will check that out and grab some.

A homie sprouted these seeds a few years ago and just shared the cuts with me yesterday. I don't know if these particular crosses are out there, but it wouldn't surprise me if they were.
Get some different varieties and we can trade in a few years if ya want. My # always the same

From left to right
SS02 × TBM
PSYCO O × TBM
JULLES GIANT × TBM

 

[ARTofMAKINGfire]

Still might need that V free GMO!!

I'm always around.
