I don't believe it can, Deft. It's been brought up in the past, and I believe that's the verdict. Never tried it myself.
LOL DNH, you can buy new camo, nightvision, etc, but not a 'puter cable? :wink:
Nice production on the clones! :canabis: Are they from the seeds you were showing, or indoor projects?

BTW, I picked this up @ a Mahoney's, in my never-ending battle against mold. I'll still use Neem Oil, (shit, I got a lifelong supply!) but once buds start to form and conditions are right, I'll start using this. It's a spray bottle, just showing you the pertainents. $10.oo

Holla` New England!!

Highlighter, nice to see the repotting in effect! They look good. I am guessing that you are working with clones, but I am curious to know the strains (maybe you alreay mentioned... sorry...).

DNH, I second highlighter on the production of the clones. Nice Work Brah! I understand that cables area pain in the ass and it will be much nicer if/when everything is wireless (gotta love wireless 'airport' net) but I do hope that you remedy that sitch before to long...

I hope that y`all are catchin` the breaks, stay safe and good luck growing monsters!

ha ha. ya i am just debating on getting a new camera or just a cable for the old one as it is only 2mp and i want a better one. but due to excessive purchases 20000$ and a vacation from hell i aint sure. clones out so far are c99 and pungent skunk. others will be put out from the new seeds as soon as they sex and backup cuts are saved.i went wild with some old outdoor seeds and planted a few patches for the hell of it. hoping for a few plants out of it.time to load the boat and plant another plot on the river. the skeeters are real hungry this year

Yeah, it's crazy, considering all the "chatter" back in mar/apr.

Did everyone's plants die from all the rain? Haven't gotten the torrents of rain most of N.E. has gotten, but enough that I haven't had to lug water.
Did today, giving my main patch the last of the 'grow' ferts. (earth juice)

Only one known girl amoung the Biddy's, keeping my fingers crossed.

I also started some of my "rocketwreck" in early june. Just transplanted them outta their 4" pots today, they really needed that! They all took a big hit of slug damage, which discouraged me from dealing w/ them earlier.

Here's a biddy from today.
 
Hey guys,

Sorry I havent been here for awhile, So it's about time for me to chip in here. I have 5 ladies growing out-n-about. Swazi is the genetics from Nirvana. I must say these plants GROW.......My shortest one is alittle over 6 feet tall and the tallest one is just over 8 feet tall. woohoooo.

I cant wait till Oct, November!!

Durban has plently of time to finish in the NE. Conditions in your area may leave Durban vulnerable to mold, and my personal experiences with Durban shows it to mold very easily. My suggestion is to top it several times to avoid large, heavy, dense buds. I think harvest time was towards the end of September. One of my phenos turned totally purple and didn't mold at all, while the 2 others molded very easily. Give it a try, Durban is a very smooth and calming smoke for sure.

You may also want to give Afgahni by Nirvana a try - it's fast, easy to grow, cheap, and a killer smoke. Good luck.

having a greenhouse extends the season but without heat forget about winter growing. having a few i know. unfortunately there aint no mj in em LOL.during extreme winter with low light hours and levels additional lighting might be needed too. unless you like fluffy buds.heating a gh will cost ya an arm and leg in most cases.

im talking about a small greenhouse,right next to a 10x12 shed. i was thinking about usinga small propane heater in the shed and just pipe it into the greenhouse.

I've got 4 durban beans left, I'll do an indoor seed grow as soon as my current indoor grow completes to be ready for next season.

Well.. all my plants got eaten by somthing, probably a bug looking at how all the leaves are gone but no stems. One plant was only half eaten and the top is ok but its very small so I put down some fertalizer stakes meant for tomatoes.

Time for things to start getting fun. To make up for my miraculous 'all-girl' yr last yr, the Biddy's have swung to mostly males - 6 males, 3 females, and 2 of the girls are runts. I'm keeping one of the males, a big, bushy fella that expressed earlier than the others. Gonna try and dig him up and move him elsewhere, so I can selectively dust the big biddy girl when the time is right.

The 'Rocketwreck', being only 2 mo. old, have yet to express. They have rebounded nicely from slug damage & rootboundedness, but still really need to get out of their pots. Once they express, the girls will take the place of the Biddy males.
Hot as fuk out, back to lugging water.

Howdy NE heads,

Deft sorry to learn about the loss...

Superman/Dave re-education of the criters is crucial, ha!

Highlighter, sorry to hear that the sex split was not favorable, I am still interested in seeing 'rocketwreck' pics at some point down the line...

I have mentioned earlier in this thread that I have been doing some moving around and so I am not up to anything this season... just snagged some nice shnazzeleberry (sp?) from a friend... so far I am loving the aroma and getting fairly lifted, nothing too crazy.

Best of luck to you all

peace halfdef
