Well again I haven't kept up much with the thread, trying to get through the 270+ pages of the blumat auto-watering thread.
I do have a small update, of the original 8 seeds I started (one was a twin Sour Boggle and died right off), I ended up with 2 females. I think there was one additional, but I culled it with the males to make room for the 2 fastest to show and the 5 Hortilab Starbud (feminized) going in. One Nirvana Swiss Cheese which I potted up in a 2.5 gallon hard plastic pot, the other was the Mace freebie, Piledriver (Goji OG x GDP) x Blue Magoo Bx2 which presented first and went into a 1.75 gallon hard plastic pot. About 2.5 weeks ago I popped a 5-pack of the Starbud (Feminized) so I didn't have to bother with males (going from fantasies of pollen chunking to the reality of tending to many plants, no dudes at my parties no more).
Anyway, on to the pictures:
Piledriver x Blue Magoo Bx2. About 2 months from seed, topped once (just 2 days ago).
Nirvana Swiss Cheese. This monster was topped early on, LST the two main shoots (and subsequent branches), and recently just left to go crazy. I did trim some of the spindly lower growth but she needs more work.
Finally the Hortilab Starbud. Recently potted up in 3 gallon smart pot.
I want to get everyone setup on the Blumat in the next coming days, I have all the stuff I need, just a matter of drawing up the plans and putting the work in. Eventually, having refined my original plan of 4 much larger plants in an AutoPot system (so, I got a 4-pot, AutoPot XL system if anyone is interested
), regular from seed, I'm going to setup the 2x3 veg tent I have, keep a mother and run 12 (room for 16 if I keep 'em small) clones in 3 gallon smart pots (preferably with quadrants of the tent being harvsted every 2-3 weeks prepetually). I have a ton of 2 gallon smart pots, if these 3 gallon prove to be wasteful.

My portable a/c doing more harm than good lately, time to cut a hole in the wall. I wanna invest in a mini split but my grow is in the basement. I'm on a mission tomorrow to find a used 12k a/c in pretty good cond. cause the temps are back! I have the urge to pop some beans, digging in the stash I'm deciding between:
TK/Star Dawg x OG Squared
Alien Kush BX1 (AK f1 x AK f3)
Hindu Kush
Legend OG BX1 (L OG x L OG/Alien Cookies)
Star Dawg F2
Strawberry Bubba x Tres Kush
Wanna do the Hindu Kush but only have (5) of em..... IME you need numbers when growing those landrace genes to find a nice keeper!

Sorry to bring the bad news. Big bust of a warehouse grow op in Indianapolis today. 500 plants, but they also had cases of butane being stored there too, so the cops and the media are really making it like, "this could have killed innocent people", and "see, we told you pot could kill you". Bummer in the summer.

They had a nice warehouse
They had a nice warehouse
Their grow looked pretty sweet....Parabolic reflectors... PVC pipes holding the plants up.... looked like the plants were 6 foot tall or bigger... someone got fucked... dont think I would do a warehouse grow in indy though. They had 60k on hand and they said a mil worth of plants... much respect... sorry they got caught

Day 59 on my tahoes and cookie s1s. Will switch bulbs to my mh conversion tomorrow to see if it helps resin production. Also a shot of my full veg tent of soil.

^^Switching to mh for the last week or two really does increase resin production. When I first tried it I thought it would end up being a waste of time, man was I surprised.
Ya my tahoes pretty frosty as is im just gunna try it and see, and if it works im gunna start doing it to my hydro as well.
Happy 4th everyone. Are you enjoying your independence in the land of the free? Well, i hope at least your grows are going well. Anyone doing outdoor? So much rain the past month or more...
Grateful Dead are in Chicago, I'm seeing a lot of tie-dyes, sandals and facial hair on Michigan Avenue...
