Ya shcrews maybe that's easier for you, I have not tried the tent way so i really don't know for sure,, But paint brush way is supper easy ,, I guess i just like knowing what the female turned out like & seeing the most smelly male used, It definitely fun growing seeds you know you made ( Well You & nature made) !! Also after pollinated & you pull male plant ----count is lower, Either way hope you have good luck !!!

my 2 cents for what its worth , lol

your an AOG fan , if at all possible i,d be getting cuts also from your females this year , try to get them timed in with your open pollination . that way you will have seeds of the AOG this year you desired the most , they would be the ones i,d start looking through first . if a particular one ticked the boxes for you . i know people read books on this and are experts , but i like to use seeds of parent plants i liked for whatever reason it was potency , smell , taste ect . if not ,try smoke each of some of the seeded parent plants when you pull seed . see if theres something about one of them you like ........could be just me . but thats my cave man approach .

i feel you on putting them plants in , tempting getting them roots in old mother nature where its bit warmer . hard call for you there . this lab test your waiting on in there a way to find out how long its going to be ? i,m guessing not or you,d know already when its coming .

I will definitely save cuts of at least one Ancient OG female. I might end up planting all the females outside for full season, in which case the cuts will be used for the open pollination instead of the original seed plants

i'm not even sure if Logan got my soil yet, but i sent it in a while ago, at least a week now i think

All things considered that is fantastic root growth. Plant one and see how it goes.

Good luck bro
yah i was surprised when i lifted up a pot and there were roots comin out everywhere.. i guess round 1 is bouncing back. I'm transplanting round 2 into 5gals today so i'll have good starts for sure no matter what. I'm putting them in TheOutlawTree's soil mix, we'll see how they do

Looking good this year Schrews gonna be some monsters. Last year on your drip set up how did you clamp the very ends of the 1/2 inch poly drip line ? Just double worm clamps ? Also are you planning to do the same drip set up again this year ?

That looks very similar to a tool we used to use in the 70's to see the sugar content in grapes near Fresno where I grew up...yep same thing

so i forgot that DMV sent me a letter a while ago saying they will pull my drivers license if i dont pay my old speeding tickets by friday. the tickets have gone to collections at this point so will probably have to break some serious bread to keep my license. Once the ticket fines are sent to collections they usually double or triple.

California is having a big problem. Over 4 million people have had their drivers licenses suspended for unpaid tickets since the policy was put in place a few years ago. Nearly 1 in 6 drivers.

40% of people who have their license suspended end up losing their job because they can't transport themselves. They also face arrest if driving with a suspended license. It has been statistically proven that this disproportionately affects minorities and poor people.

systematic class warfare designed to further the gap between rich and poor. I wonder how many millions of dollars CA has extorted in fines from people who can't afford it.


on another note, the sun is out today and weather is great. plants are happy and there's not much to do except finish transplanting the second round of starts. cheers!

just kink/fold back the end and put a single clamp on it. Yes i am going to use the same drip set up. It's still set up from last year.

edit: check the picture a couple posts down.

Dude you need to learn to accept the outcomes for your mistakes. When your plants got cooked in your GH, you acted like it was the GH that did it. Nobody made you get speeding tickets and nobody made you not pay them either.

How do you forget about a letter that states you could lose your drivers license? I'd be handling that shit ASAP.

Check out the quick connect style end caps for your poly. It's just a quick connect inlet and a threaded screw on end, so you basically make the end of your drip poly into blow off valves, and you get piece of mind from knowing your not relying on a kinked line on your drip ends.

Just my 2 cents

don't handle it ASAP. money decreases in value everyday, so the longer you wait the less you actually pay.

if you must know, i forgot about the DMV letter because i have a lot of other things on my mind. Getting this grow set up. getting custody of my son. Sister got married last week. Parents are having health problems. Trying to meet ladies (been 4 yrs since i had a girlfriend), plus the usual hustle and also training.

not that it matters, cuz my license is fine. i'm paying the fines today, which is the last day possible, which means technically i'm paying the least amount possible for that dollar amount, if you believe in inflation.

Dude you need to learn to accept the outcomes for your mistakes.
check your reading comprehension. you are putting words in my mouth. i could go into detail on where you are wrong, but i would rather let you figure that out

i accept any fate that befalls me. And who are you , to be giving me life advice?

did you not like the statistics that i posted? or do you disagree about the class warfare? or just trolling? Obviously you misunderstood my attempt to educate y'all about the current situation in california. They just released a study on it a month ago, and are now changing the laws because of that study. these things interest me since i am a sociologist.


It's easy for you to criticize me but you havent put any of yourself on here for me to respond in turn, so it's hard to take you seriously. Also you missed the point

Also i plan to save a cut/father of the best AOG male for future crosses

Very wise thing to do!!! Don't let it die on you though. Also, make sure the females are well into flowering, like small quarter sized nugs or
Bigger (about 4 weeks) before you start the orgy. Then you'll have possible thousands of seeds and when harvesting the seeds you can gently rub them over a kief screen to get the seeds out and have a ton of hash for later on.....

Good luck!

thanks for the tip as always. sounds like a cool upgrade, but this is actually really good right here: no leaks all last season. i'm not even gonna mess with the driplines , will just set them back up the way they were basically. why fix it if it's not broken.
