i trim my plants before i chop em down find it easier to sit in a chair and trim away while they're still standing everyone has there way of doing things but the laws here in nevada from what i've read is they count your 3 flowered plants as any plant thats cut down and they also require that you leave the plant completelly in tackc while it dries and ur supposed to trim a lil here and there and once one plants gone at that point can you start another one i flower wow this deffinatelly isnt going to work for me i chop em down whole and dry them for a few days whole till the stems get dry enough to still bend without snapping but are still dry to the touch i then place them all in canning jars and cure this way if i were curing a 5lb or bigger one id dry them the same way but instead of using the jars to cure ill use tall kitchen bags a clean one of course and use it as the samething as the jar this way the moisture is whicked outta the bud and it cures nicely but if its stuff thats going to be sold i dont even cure it ive found by doing a 30 day cure for smoke your going to sell is a waste of time esspecially with the garbage that floats around vegas here these ppl here wouldnt know nothing about a cure they just smoke it lol and now im thinking ill probablly not smoke much of it myself beings i got a bubble now machine and 8 bubble bags on there way to me they arrived to sparks nevada which is reno this morning at 6 am so hope they make it by friday if not monday it is lol i got almost my whole freezer full of clippings and popcorn buds just awaiting that bad boy cant wait gotta killer deal on it 441 and some change and these guys here sell that hash for 40 a gram ive seriously thought about just making my whole crop hash but really is it worth it if someone could fill me in here thatd be great thank you

longest sentence ever?????

from what i understand this kinda technology is very unreliable and very rarely used in climates as ours and yes they are using some technology to look for illegals it's not going to stop until our "friends" from the south turn america into a shit hole like mexico they've already gotta good start in vegas here i went to the dentist today and it happened to be in a strip mall and every store in the strip mall was all mexican lol even the mexicans version of rent a center awesome i did hear about them looking for illegals on the national news not yesterday but the day before but they mentioned nothing about busting ppl but like i said and this is information from my cousins mouth and he worked on all these types of systems anyways in desert climates it doesnt work well enough to pick up indoor grows if that were the case id have the cops knockin on my door every day seems the ghetto bird does laps around my neighborhood all the time well hope this ease's ur mind i am legal so i am not real worried about it take me to jail prison wahtever just another day and i can play pinochle with the best of em a lil 3 2 1 ya not my first time there either if the hammer falls on me and my lil ass medical op i'd just hang myself lol the only thing thats been found lately that i know of was the estimated what was it 700 million dollars worth of marijuana on the 18th of september not one word on the news about it not one thing in the paper it was the las vegas sun that finally 3 days later ran the story no wonder no one knows medical marijuana exist here it never gets any local media attention id love to meet that cock lick who's greasing that wheel for a swift kick to his nuts

nevermind

yep, if you have purple she is gonna shine through now I think this is probably the busiest time of year for the folks in the desert..it is for me anyway if you wanna take advantage of the free A/C I set my self up for this time of year so i'll be pulling 6 plants every two weeks for the next few months..got to love the perpetual thing. I've been working my afghan for a good year and a half now so she is nice and dialed. how many post do I need to start putting pics up? stay safe out there.. peace, Osky

 

[Hydrosun]

OrangeSky,

You can post pics or a links at any time. You may need to create photo albums and upload your photos to ICmag first, then you can just insert them. This one was 22oz in desert DWC. I'll never go back to dirt.

Peace,

Its cooling off round here finally, the mornings are beautiful. I like it here in AZ so far but I wish we had more stores that sell supplies.. stay safe out there..peace, Osky

i'm passing thru phx tomorrow on my way to vegas and will be stopping at a store up there...and i don't mind taking orders if there's a place near Hwy 60 and I-17 to carefree hwy to hook up...like an eatery or bar kinda place, or wherever it's convenient for us.

[unclefishstick]

wow hydro,that is crazy! the one pound plant has always been a goal of mine,see that i have set my personal bar too low lol ,always been a dirt guy,but maybe i need to add a little ghetto dwc to the kitchen.....

 

[Billy Burroughs]

ya nice hydro my brother just pulled down his first hydro crop a lil over a pound for 4 plants im seitching over for sure just gotta do it when i can afford it i already got so much wrapped up in soil as it is ya know but i still would like to run either a 4 x 6 or 4 x 4 ebb and flo probablly the smaller one because it gives me still two plants i can grow in soil my head stash im pushing to get a better house first seems theres 3 bedrooms all over for 800 or lesss in much nicer neighborhoods im totally stoked on the idea and cant wait

[Billy Burroughs]

my 3rd flower bout 2 weeks inflower

almost lost all of these but as you can tell i saved three of them but did have to bring in 3 other clones and kinda fast track them to get the somewhat flower ready by the time everything grew back on the other 3 plants i ended up having to cut a bunch out of the bigger plants at the end all new fresh shoots perect for cloning i got them all cut back to grow more like a bush lkike this plant really likes got my best yields off this strian this way anyways the strain in apollo 13 x jack the ripper aka the third deminsion its a good solid producer and has a pretty good punch to it too but this is also my third harvest when i take her down ive ran this strain 2 other times and ive never got less than 4 ounces a plant so typically 5-6 super easy trimming almost no trimming required so so far until i get something in to take its spot its gotta home in my garden


the bigger ones are the ones i revegged that i burnt badly from a faulty ph pen man i was pissed oh well live and learn
