Hey MWK.......I see you`re playin with a buncha different toys ......Good luck on your new setup , and I feel ya on the expense of swappin over to LED `s without sacrificing a vital organ .....I went with 240 watt Quantum boards I found cheap on Alibaba that even came with dimmers......They came disassembled and I hadta put em together , but it was babyshit simple since they came with their own connectors and hardware ......

I run 3 for a total of 720 watts in a closet type setup a lil over 4 x 4.with air exchanged twice per minute to control heatgain , but LED drivers still heat up the room just like HID ballasts and bulbs unless mounted outside said grow area but.......that problem `s easily solved since most all drivers have extra wire so they can be hung or mounted outside tents or up above on shelves where said heatgain can be sucked out inline fan/scrubber combo`s with the proper extraction of air......anyways......

Wanted to stop in and show respect for all the old strains as well as new ones in your stable .......I `m interested particularly in Miraculous Med `s / Josh B `s Navy Cross cuz he gifted me some a while back and I `ve been savin em .....Tony sent me some stuff too that you have so I `ll be over here on my bucket waitin for things to swell up , so good luck , take care and......

Peace.....DHF......:ying:.......

That's for taking a look.
I will try to grab a couple pictures of the Navy Cross and the Tony Green genetics as well.

I have been looking at Kingbrite LEDs as well. But I'm not liking the shipping costs from them.

I am sure you are right about that. It's the initial start up cost that I'm having troubles with.
(I have a kidney I'm trying to sell on ebay if you know anyone looking?)

lol, no need to do like that. save some money each month, then buy an LED as gift.

I thought u was cool before man but now I know u r cool. How was the show? I saw them for the first time in may 2019 and the 2nd in Nov 2019. Been a fan since the early 2000s. I caught A Perfect Circle a few times too man.

it was truly hypnotic... they're so good at what they do; it makes most other bands seem like beginners.

I got to see them at Coachella years back, but this time I was about 60 feet away. Pretty mind blowing experience.
I'd put it up my top 3 for best shows. Tom Petty, John Prine and Tool all jockeying for 1st.

Several years ago my cousin came to visit me. I gifted him a bunch of seeds. He did a couple grows then stopped because of a paranoid girl friend. I visited him recently and the subject of seeds came up. He then dug out a bunch of seeds I hadn't seen in years. It was pretty neat. He ended up gifting me seeds I had gifted him! I think these are roughly 10 years old now. These would have come from The single seed centre. Lol. I cringe now thinking about buying something that's not in breeders packaging. Anyways, I thought this was super exciting and hope that some of these will germinate.

Cool. Looking forward to your results with the SuperGerm - best of luck! Also thanks for sharing the G13 S1. More than a few times I almost pulled the trigger on them but never followed through. Doesn't seem to be much documentation on them, at least that I could find. Maybe this will be the push I needed - looks like a really nice plant!

Hey Shmavis. Thanks for taking a look.

This is my first go with the superGerm. I havent attempted to germinate these seeds before using an alternative method.
But there's another batch of seeds that I will re-visit soon that I believe would be a fair analysis since I've attempted popping them before using just water.
As Tycho mentioned if the seeds are dead they are dead, but I'm hoping this stuff will wake up the slow ones.

As for the G13 Im right there with ya. I had to see it for myself because I wasn't finding much documentation on here (there is another guy on here growing them currently)
anyway, yeah super healthy strong looking plant. Pretty significant stretch. 7 gal. Smart pot.
Funky stem rub that I haven't been able to decipher just yet.

Any luck with the supergerm? Been too busy lately

So far I have 2 above soil. But I hadn't tried this batch of seeds previously without the supergerm. So not much of an experiment. But 2 is better than zero.

My next experiment with it will be trying a couple batches of seeds that I got zero germ rate with my standard methods. So that will give me a little bit of data to work off of
