Does the rodenator shoot out a flame from open holes in the gophers tunnel system? Ive used propane before to blow up gopher tunnel systems but have almost started a few fires from a flame shooting out the gopher holes.

If all goes well this week, I will be running my Blue Dragon at the new site. Only had one last year, but turned the T5s off June 10th, and she flowered without revegging. I chopped her Aug 30th, but could have done it the 15th.

The Blue Dragon! I'm so gay for this strain it's not funny.

I veg'd out a fresh clone just under T5's for a couple months this winter... just started to try and take clones from her within the last month... so far 2 out of 25 have rooted AND not died days after bubble cloner to dirt. Have also done some in Rapid Rooters that produced roots, but for some reason when my cat broke into the seedlings/clones "room" he selectively decided that only Chocolate Chunk and Blue Dragon were worth his time eating... seriously. He's a weird fucker. Hard to say what would have happened when I would have transplanted to dirt.

I've now got a few that I snipped, dipped and stuck straight into some nice, moistened Pro-Mix which I've always had almost 100% success with... I've never had such terrible strike rates as I have with this Dragon... any tips? Everything else in the same environment is taking off like made... my Blackberry, West Coast D.O.G and especially my cut of Hindu Skunk literally will almost clone themselves if i snip a cutting off and let it fall into a bucket of dry sand.

YES. Have fire suppressant available. Noise is a giant issue. Not recommended for semi residential areas. Someone will call the police and they will arrive. You will be holding this item that looks like a rifle. Very dangerous situation. That is why I call the Sheriff before I use it to let them know what is going on.

As old as this cut is, it is one of my easiest rooting plants. Good luck on keeping one alive. I don't do anything special, just standard rockwool and domes.

Im getting ready to sprout some seeds today. My bros came by last week and buzzed down some maples that were blocking major light on my veggie garden. Major difference in exposure! Gonna throw a few girls next to the maters and beans this time.
I got kicked in the nuts last year, as many did im sure. I had a casey jones that was my biggest plant (over 15' tall) and didnt even get 1 unit from it, it needed another month at least...Hoping to make up for it this year.

that hindu skunk clone out of the bay is nice, nice plant.


I actually have no real idea, though I assume it is from the Bay, where this HS came from. It was given to me by a fellow ICMAG'r and friend. The small clone I started in November to grow out over the winter to use as a mother has already given more than her share of clones and just won't stop with the vigor. I just had to up the pot size to a 20-gallon smart she has grown into such a bush and that's under T5's w/ some lousy 200-watt equivalent CFL's for some extra penetration. If I threw her under one of my 1K MH's w/ OG-lite vertical reflectors I can only imagine what she'd be by now indoors. (Note to self.... grow some HS indoors for a change)

Got a new mother started and next light dep flip, this big mother will probably be re-potted again and put out under that lovely May/June flowering (in light deps) sun.

And did I mention she's just an awesome ride or die type bitch that is never fussy and always produces? I love her. And she's a quick finish, which I'm always after.

Foliar Feeding and Brix. What is everyone using to spray with for foliar feeding and brix. I have a 60 gallon orchard sprayer used for spraying the fruit trees in the spring for coddling moth. I can get a pretty fine spray out of it, but someone mentioned an atomizer works well too. Would that clog pretty easy? Let me know and thanks.

I'm pretty fond of this thing since last year. Made by Hudson. I know some other guys use on this thread use it. I also use it inside, but you better tie them up well before hand.

you can rig it pretty slick to a larger reservoir, just make sure its a few ft above you on the elevation. Ive run those things outta pickle barrels, makes it nice when you dont have to make a new mix every 1.5 gallons. Also I recommend a second filter (tiny filter sleeve tied and secured around the initial pinner filter thats on the inline tip,)

They work great on small stuff, but once they get mid june, its nice to break out something a bit stronger
