Desert Southwest Growers Union

Fake trip to mars

Fake trip to mars

Joesy and HCA, I think ten bears would be proud of you guys growing up out in the middle of the Sonoran desert like that back in the olden days, lol.

That crop duster reminds me a lttle of the Tellie Savalas character in the 70s flick "Capricorn One." Plus it was OJ's greatest performance as an actor.

So, here's my new 250w CMH:




Now I can dry out my seedlings even more with our 14% RH around here :muahaha:

Peace out desert rats...

Hey OG Nice looking BOGglegum you got. Wish I had hung on to my old BOG gear. BOGbubble was definitely the best I ever grew.

The fall of OG made a 150w grower paranoid? You got some other stuff you're not tellin' us about? :rasta:

Right on, HCA, you'll have to let me know how it compares to HPS growin same strains and same methods. I've read some good fights on here about it, lol.

It's purdy though--no arguing that.

Im just realy xcited bout gettin it on my mom! It gonna be her light exclusivly. The rest of the room will get somma the ambiance from it but Im just hopin it'l promote lotsa good healthy easy to root cuttings from mom. And Im kinda hopin the ambiant light that spreds round the rest of the li'l mom/clone room will promote good fast rootin cuttings. The cuttings are already under flouros and do real good but I figure the cmh spectrum in the room couldnt hurt! It autta be here today!

I have some anxiety issues so I don't need that much of a reason to get paranoid :) Been through all the stuff the docs push on ya for it, and I've decided that Indica couchlock is a much better treatment for it than any of the stuff they want to "try out". Better side effects! :woohoo:

I was there from bout 87-89. Id like to go out there sometime and see how it looks now. I bet the roads that turned to dirt at the deserts edge are paved over now. Yea Brudda! Buckeye was rite there at the edge of the desert. Ya remember that big ol red white and blue airplane that was parked in that big church lot on Goodyear road by Avondale? I think it was Avondale anyhow. The Preacher man had it all ready for take off for him and his flock for when the rapture came. -Aparently he wasnt takin any chances! That was kinda hard to mis. The big red white and blue airplane on Goodyear road by Avondale. Damn, We usta have a blast out there. You could drive round on desert roads for hours out there. Getcher rounds, shells, coffee Bud, Jim Beam and doughnuts at the Circle-K and go kick some rocks over!

there's a shitload of heavy stuff like that floating around this room! and joesy not only can spit & shoot straight but he also has the best in the southwest! still can't figure out which one i like best...but i've only had them for not quite a week yet. been sorting thru ogre, bubba chunks, snow dog, strawberry crunch and chem dog and they're all one-hitters...any more and i'm on the couch for the next couple hours. that snow dog glues me down extra hard (they all do but it's what's currently in my bowl) and i get nothing done around here...and i still have to finish my harvest that has one whole plant still in the ground and seems to be loving this fall weather. been keeping it out extra long trying to catch some cooler temps before it gets pulls...and it looks like she'll be getting some cool temps tonight! i even have the fireplace loaded and ready to fire up! but i'm most looking forward to starting up the indoor winter grow...just need to run down to tucson and pick up some new soil, rapid grow plugs and ferts and we're off and running! already got my beans...dj's original bb, fem skunk and something called ultimate indica along with a clone of appalacian from a vegas friend...and whatever else that comes my way. but i'll be paying closer attention to the goings-on at seedbay if that's really where all these awesome strains joesy has come across comes from!

now i think i'll load up another bowl with some chem dog in it and ogre in another for a side x side taste test...see ya in a couple daze.

thanks for the good review Del. that chem is chem double d from rez and the oger seeds came from a good friend in canada, the bubba chunk was a gift also from a friend in fl. the sno dog also came from rez. I also just recieved som DJ blue berry seeds from a guy in ark. gotta do a seed run for him. that appalacian is some great stuff, can't wait for you to flower her out and see how you like it.
 
Del: Roger that. couple of weeks ago I read this whole thread and was pretty impressed by the ops from the DSWGU. And been definitely eyeing some of that Rez gear for a future purchase. Since I'm just doin' a 250w micro, however, no need to be in a hurry 'cuz only so many can fit at a time.

HCA: Yeah, I get excited to receive some new toys, and this hobby is complete obsession time. What wattage CMH are you gonna use for that mom(she must be aufully special).

Joesy: Dude, you are pimpin' the genes, boy! If you were starting over and were picking just one (Rez flav) to restart with, what would it be?

Here's my four girls under their new light, but with no cab built yet it's hot in that closet :bashhead:

Little girls look a little rough (19% RH and 85.5F as you see in the pic) but are healthy and seem to love the light.

Aye Carrumba Joesy! Thats just beautyfull! Almost like havin Yer own Baskin Robins! --Hey Howdy DeTokeVille! I got the 400 watt! Yea this mom is real special to me! Shes like a long lost Friend that a very Kind Soul directed my way. I had the 02 Shack and I treasured my mom. Bout 2 years ago I lost her due to circumstansis beyond my controle. The Major was Kind enoughf to gift me this Beautyfull Shack cut he's had since 05! What a beautyfull Plant! I meen she's just Beautyfull! I got 4 x 1 week old clones in flower now and theyr commin in crazy stocky like broccoli or somethin. This Girl is THICK! I been had a hard time for bout a month anna half since I been usin my 400hps over mom. Last 2 cycles wouldnt root for 3 weeks. I never had any probs before so I figured its the hps over mom. I stoped usin it but by then she had outgrown the flouros I kept her under with her cuts. I coulda kept her under there but I wanted to try the hps on her. Thing is, -once I figured out the hps made mom give hard to root clones, mom got too big to puty back under the flouros. So this cmh seems perfict! It looks prety good and I think its gonna work out good. We'l see!
 
HCA- Yeah, she's gonna love it. She'll probably be able to give you a nice big SOGs worth of clones :muahaha: Look forward to seeing that plant thick with buddage!

Joesy- Jealousy bro, that's the only word I got for you. Asian-bird-flu sick is what that is. Badder than a 16-year-old Catholic school girl when her parents are on vacation in Europe for three weeks. Oh and BTW, I am also an ADD sufferer, :laughing:

this is what I'm smoking in the meantime. Claims are that it is bubba kush. I know it's grown in OC, CA and I still have to travel there to pick up weed these days. It does have that lemony, sour, chem smell the SoCal OGK crosses are famous for...

Wow! Y'all are crankin out some tasty ladies! I have a hard time keeping up with just a few varieties at a time, but I know Joesy's got like 10 going at a time (prolly more :D)

So I've just broken my all-time record of new tire life... :rant: :rant: :rant: 8 Fooking Miles!!! :rant: :rant: :rant: Just replaced a tire on my truck. My office is 5 miles from my house. I'm driving home tonight and 2 miles from home...blowout on the freeway. Just to add insult to injury, my hydraulic jack leaked out all its oil in the back of my truck on the floor...no jack. So I walked home, got some hydraulic fluid, walked back, changed tire, and ran through the various scenarios in my head for when I take this new shredded tire back to the tire shop tomorrow. I can laugh now cuz I'm looking at some good pot porn, but gawwdammit I was pissed a few hours ago!

Everyone take 'er easy!

Just be glad it was only an annoyance! Worse things have happened with blowouts.

Here's a shot from last night. Was an "oops" with the flash, but it sure brings out all the sparklies! This new cam has a long zoom lens so it sticks out too far for macros and cuts the flash off, so the bottom half doesn't get any light. The super macro sure does get the teeniest details tho. You can see hairs on the hairs. Amazin!
