went and did some tent shoppin,and grabbed a few fans too...
theres some soil for my beans im gettin ready to germ,some new neoprne inserts for the cloner,100 3 gallon grow bags,liquid karma,some cal-mag-the 3 fans for the room,and a couple magizines the dude threw in.
the rest are just sugar shots of the mangos,i couldnt get good ones in the dark....couldnt get verry good ones in the light either LOL but here they are...
peace fam,thanks for rollin in here with a playa.im glad to have ya all as guests in the growasis.
peace-T-
Liquid Karma is something I never got a chance to use. Is it worth it? When would you use it?
..(and this is a discussion InPotiTrust and I have all the time about sativa dom plants)
Are you going to take one of those mangos to 14 weeks? Just think of the difference it would make come the cure..just a thought..
peace,

Yeah, T, I feel you on not settin those hoods up till you got 'em all. What hoods are they, BTW? I'm gonna need some other hoods REAL soon and the ones I got are great for 400's (not a very wide footprint, actually tight enough to help the penetration on a 400, IMHO), but I don't think they'll work well with the 600's I'm gonna get.
That looks like the botanicare cal-mag +, right? I like the stuff a lot, man. It practically replaces my GH flora micro! Making a huge difference in flower, I think, as it allows me to drastically lower my N while maintaining higher levels of micros. Should help a lot in soilless as well, since I pretty much am as well, just treating it like hydro
That's some sweet shit with those mango haze, man! Looking forward to the next 7 weeks watching those!!!
sublime-thanks man .yea bro im really lookin forward to seein what they do too yo.
peace.
drdog-fasho bro made a mental note,all things will be in order for the next run of the tent.
peace-T-
C-dubb-liquid karma was highly spoken of by the dr. so i take his word on it...you ever see a shabby plant from him. i figure i can twerk it too ya know.
and as far as takin a mango 14 weeks...well idk yo i think its gonna be hard enough waiting the 12 LOL,
peace brother.-T-
TG-sup yo,them hoods are sunsystem ones with the hinged glass and all that 6 inch holes yatta yatta yatta.they was only like 130 a piece i think.
yup i love the cal mag brotha.me and you both are lookin forward to them mangos here in the next 7 weeks,they seem pretty promising already bro.
peace my friend.-T-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ok so lets get at it.
were gonna roll
x 7 godberry

x 5 pollen chuck revised
x 10 lifesaver x mothers finest

x 10 happy brother cut X chemdogD IX1 #3...these will be the feature in my new thread i hope you all will join me in the vendors forums for the ride as i might show them in here once in a while they will be detailed over there.so lets get this shit poppin fam...
so im doin this again i neglected to do it last time and wont forget again...1st glue some pieces od emory board to the inside of a matchbox,place in seeds and shake for like 60 seconds..s'pose to thin shell and help beans pop easier.
into paper towels,inside open ziplocks and on saucers over a heatmat on low...does it matter if theres a light on them at this point in towels or not?i have a small flouro on them now.thanks in advance.
next stop here
then here..
not experienced with the rapid rooters fam hows the best way to keep them mist and how long will they hold moisure yo?
thanks for droppin in.peace-T-
Well, those RR's (I think) aren't the best for starting beans, only because the taproot grows outta them fast as fuck. Otherwise, just take them outta the bag, soak them in some 6.0-6.4 pH water, and you're good to go!
Depending on the RH, they'll stay wet for up to 6 days or so. You can tell when the beans are growing through them because they will obviously dry faster than the unrooted ones.
They can dry out a lot before you need to worry, in my experience, and it's easy to think they're getting too dry. So I'd make sure and give the RR's at least 4 days before watering them in again.
Can't wait to see what happens to your temps when the AC'ed hoods get hooked up! My temps went down 7 degrees, and I don't think I have anywhere enough air going through my hoods!
I'm gonna probably give a shot to the L Karma, as I'm always down to try new shit, especially when spoken highly of!
so i take it the moisture is s'pose to be building up inside the baggies then?
i just went in there and theres condesation in there.i figure it cant hurt?just keep the towel moist right?
peace -T-
thats why I asked ya if you was gonna let one of em go to 14 weeks..just something to test the potentcy against the 12 week-ers..and no, I have never ever seen a shabby plant from the dawg.. I just never got the chance to use it.. The LK that is..
I would drop those rapid rooters as well, and just go right to your soil mix..I think it's just easier on you and easier on the babies as well, but to each his own. I just never had good luck with those damn things..I also kept me 'lings in the dark till they came outta the baggie as roots don't really want the light..but again, what ever works for you! This is what for you? Like your 3rd or 4th seed run? you should be getting comfortable with what your'e doing with them by now,no?
lookin' great!! mango looks yummy.
how's the smell on it?
when i pop beans of any nature with the paper towel method, i wouldn't seal the plastic baggy closed air tight ..can't tell from your pics if you did that or not, leave it just a tiny bit open seal side. sometimes i'd even put a little fold in it so it stays propped a quarter bit open. then i'd plop the baggy onto the edge of the water heater to stay warm...but away from the center where the exhaust vent is. condensation still forms on the inside of the baggy even with it open a little. if the beans r good, t.root was always out within 3 days .. if the paper towel start to get discolor (like brownish stains) i would replace it with a new fresh wet one if they haven't formed a long root yet.
a few times i forgot about them when experimenting, and opened it to see full tap root and coty leaves out, seed shell shed, lol. it still grew just fine when put in soil tho .. coty leaves above soil of course ..
if i got it @ just the right time.. i then plant them in presoaked dirt (i soak the soil, let it drain..then use a pencil or pen to push a hole down the depth of the tap root, and drop it in, and then compress soil around the bean very gently with a spoon or the pencil..then just a light dusting of soil over the seed head just to slightly cover and hide it, and then right under fluro light 3-4 inches above it they go. once they pop the soil and coty leaves are out, all is ok! if they get to about half inch tall and the shell was still stuck to the coty leaves, i'd use a sowing needle or pin and perform shellectomy surgery. they can be ok for a day or so with the shell on, but if it doesn't come off by then, emergency s-surgery is required. slowly pry the shell away in easy tugs with the needle, a little stronger each time, then just flick it off, and they grow fine too .. even if you bust a coty leaf off, it still can make it, once the true leaves start growing.. but will never make it if you don't remove a stuck shell that covers both cotys ..
not that you need help in any of this, but others reading may get some ideas ..and if i can help .. i try
later mon
edit: if bean did not pop in 7 days, i would take beans out, let them air dry, put them back into the fridge for a week or two, and try again, and sometimes success second try! cold stratification y0
They can be a litle slow there fresh. I popped some already right on to 12/12 just to get a fast glimp at what is in there. Did some others also just for fun and to see what it is. got some

You got to pop some beans. Growing only clones is not giving that real adventure.
drdog-woke up still no action yet,on my way to the lil garden shop for fresh rapid rooter icase i go that route,i may do a few for comparison.
peace.-T-
C-dubb-sup maing...idk if i have it in me to let them go 14...we will see...
i never used the LK either yet bro.im gonna bust it out next round in the tent i would use it this time but i have already started flushing some and dont wanna add new things till next round.
still up inthe air on the rapidrooters though too.
we will see.
peace-T-
xoox-thanks for stoppin in man.good to see ya holmz.
thanks or giving me that rundown on the beans too im sure i will be referring to it alot in the next few days.peace-T-
Karma-supp maing,looks like youve been busy bro.sounds like some fresh gear for the 09 eh!
i totaly agree with you bro,i always have more fun when growing from seed.ive ordered dozens of seeds and have a pretty good selection.i just havnt gotten to them yet as i have so much to work with from the mamas ive aquired.
i have all things situated now though so i can start to go thru them and find out what i like.ive done a few seed runs but not enough to say i totaly feel like a pro at it...honestly this is the only aspect of growing when i feel like a noob.poppin seeds.once they pop im all good but gettin them goin maes me nervous for some reason yo.
peace-T-
finklestien-wattup,thanks bro.never late just gettin started bro.peace-T-
**EDIT**
exactly 24 hrs. ...
first out of the gate...
yea the pollen chuck revised is the first to break thru.they was actualy popped this afternoon but with really small roots.at 2 am they was ready for soil.
i took the light warrior put some in a tub put in a lil water and mixed it up to moisten the soil up a bit.then filled the tray and so forth.
gonna be fun to see what tomorrow has for me with the others.looks like the godberry wants to pop next.the end of the seed has a different look then before...i think...
peace.-T-
