Ok, so here is a pic of a Blue mystic i got going. I didn't write down when I put her in but I think she is at about 5 1/2 weeks. Was gonna take her to 10 weeks but am gonna chop at 9 so I can move some other things in there.

Shitake checking in...Been really busy wih the offline life as of late. I was fortunate to get a promotion at work last month and the new responsibilities (read:STRESS!!!) that it brought have finally kicked in. I can't complain though, because I've had opportunities offered me and was fortunate enough to make shit work out in my favor. Unfortunately between the job, a blooming relationship with a totally rad lil lady, some new musical opportunities, and a few not-quite-major life changes popping up, I've been offline for a good bit. I miss my IC time and all of you characters!!!


Joesy! Glad to hear that you're steering clear of the pokey! F that place!!!

A big dank :wave: to all you desert growers out there! Hope everybody's keeping 'er green and stanky!

that grape krush you gave me is about a week away from chop and is looking good, the pine tar cut is also kushing up the place, she is a stinker. are you still growing or is that not permitted any more? I am firing you as my photo man. putting a add in the paper tommorow to find your replacement

Hey Howdy DSWGU! Glad to see everybodys doin good! We'r good here too. I got rid of the Lavender and Im dialin in the Maj.'s Shack. Im just startin to figure out just how heavy she eats. She eats heavy. I been workin on tryin to get a hold of some Strawberry Cough clones too but I ben havin a hard time scedulin a delivery or even a pick up. I been tryinna gettem from Real Meds and Lowcost Meds round Modesto. I think the folks there are as stoned as me. No problem, I got patients. The dude on the phone said they got Shiva Skunk too so I been tryin to scedule a pick up or delevery to get 2 clones of each.
Its been rainy here. We got a new entertainment center too tho and it feels kinda kozey bein up here in the clouds with the rain fallin while we watch our tv, look out the window and smoke our hash. This Shack makes sweet hash. Thanks Maj.! It shure is hashey and earthy. Its not like the fruity Shack I was used to but I love it! So's everybody elce who's smoked her. Shes so heavy with trichs they just fall off her while ya manicure her.
Well Im bout to wake my wife and get her to smoke a li'l hash rosette. I like twizzlin hash between my fingers till it turns into a li'l rope bout the thikness of a fat piece of spaghetti. Then I take a piece bout an inch and a quarter long and smush it between my fingers till its a flat piece of hash tape. Then I roll it up loosley into a li'l hash rose for my ol Lady. She likesem alot and I got a shittload ofem in my pikkle jar lid so I figure Im gonna go wake her and get her to smoke some with me! Blessins!

They look real good Maj.. I cant gettem solid like that. First time this happened with my formula. I never broke it down to the gallons but Im givenem 50 ml 0-27-17, 25 ml 15-0-0, 20 ml 10-60-10, and 15 ml 2-45-28(KB) per 5 gallons. I been needin a probe for my ppm and ph meters since I got out here but goin by what it usta mix out to, my mix must be at 2200 ppm's by now. I even bumped up my KB with a 10 ml dose a couple days after I mixt. I know it sounds like alot but I can feed crazy heavy like this with my nutes when I got all my stats in check. They STILL look like they want more. Im gonna givem more my Brudda! I had a fyew diferant Herbs on my formula and nothing ever ate like this. I never fed anything this strong!

Maj- Nice looking ladies, sir! I like your tailor alteration skills!

Joes- Shiiiit! Still going, just trying to keep my head above water right now. That BB is one I got from around the way...O's winner maybe? I'd love a date with those ladies :D I can pick up some cam batts and a few ESB's if you're game this weekend.

dTv- How are you liking those CH9's? Got a couple Flower fems to drop. Curious about other growers' experiences.

drtask- Welcome to the DSGU!

SCI!!! Man, sorry I been a no-sho as of late. I'll get at you a few details later this week. Hope you and the fam are gettin' on! Rhino and M.Haze are gettin there things going nicely!

Well, after fingering out the new interface and photo stuff, I've got a whole whopping one pic so far...Here's a pic of a little veg action. There's some grape krush, ptk, sr71, nycd, OGK, BB, gypsy's mazar freebie, and a few others I think. They are all in Canna Coco now. I think this is my favorite medium to date :D

Welllp, I'll get a few more of these pics uploaded proper and get backatchas! Good to see y'allz!!!


:joint:
 
drtask--Thx dude. Yeah, they do kinda look like trash pails but they're just 6-liter square pots from the local hydro place.

Hey ES--Gotta tell ya I'm actually pretty impressed with the beans so far. I chose them because I've had good experiences with fem beans in past with a friend and with my limited space and time fems are a nice shortcut for me. Plus I like the genetics Mendo mixes up like Jack Herrer, Pure Power Plant and Ed Rosenthal bud. As you guys know I had a real shakey start with these and almost killed 'em. But once I solved the probs, they took off. Easy to grow, light feeders and all the different phenos seem to thrive with the same treatment.
