well....i didnt want to say anything....

just kidding,i learned not to have cut envy or seed envy...aside from b00ms witches weed that is! better to do your own searching i think,you get to pop plenty of seeds and smoke plenty of different strains that way...much as i love the glue i cant smoke it often if i want to get anything done or remember anything...

Why do ya think i grabbed like 50 packs of seeds last year ? I've got at least 15 different Diesel strains to go through now , as much of DG's stuff i could find left & a few that weren't the WW is on my list too . grabbed a few fruity strains .... but still have a few i want , but they're just not available anywhere or they're watered down versions of the original . like try & find a good true skunk ..... it just ain't gonna happen .
& it seems like most of the strains i want ..... are bros grim stock & those that have it ain't lettin go of it .

The GG4 and OGMango are going into bud. They are starting to look pretty good. Im way behind schedule on this indoor run, because of all the neighborhood comotion the outdoor GG4 caused. I have a new carbon filter ready to go

lazy bastard, even though you peddle your ass all over town you still got to get up by 7.

cant smoke pot while im asleep!
gotta get stuff done while the sun is up,i enjoy riding at night but my schedule and anti social tendencies usually keep me at home...that and the fact that being here to tend to the garden has produced demonstrable positive results in my life while i cant sat the same about beer drinking and such...
i guess i just like to stay busy these days,while still being able to basically fuck around all day doing whatever strikes my fancy at that moment because i know everything is dealt with...

lol,i have achieved near perfect mimicry of adult behavior while still essentially being a kid on a bike pretending hes flying a spaceship....

Any of you guys dabble in LEDs? I have a buddy who has a 120w LED panel who said hed let it go for $60. Im getting the make and model as we speak.....ill post as soon as i have the info.

Im thinkin i could maybe use this for veggin 4 clones instead of a t5? any thoughts?

 

[unclefishstick]

i have a 5-6 year old panel thats still chugging along just fine,not using it now but it rocks for veg and clones,the real problem is limited coverage area and limited penetration with mine...i think i ran it 24hrs a day for about 2 1/2 solid years without a single problem...

 

[dansbuds]

nothing more than a dusting so far Lotus ..... thank god lol
i live in a double river valley & alot of the storms never get passed the mountains to be able to really dump the shit on us .
north south & west of us get really blasted with it , while we set here sayin ..... glad thats not us !!!

 

[thewhitelotus]

Sounds kinda like us....we typically dont get too much snow and when we do it doesn't stay too long but our first storm dropped 5 inches and my backyard is still covered in snow.

Unc, im planning on using it to veg 4 plants for a week or two before throwing them under the 800 watts in the tent

Sorry to hear about the nutes dans, that sucks for sure. I've actually decided to buy my nutes at the local shop even though I can get them cheaper online. I realized how bummed I'd be if the shop were to close as they are the only Canna dealer within 60 miles so I figure I'll do my part to keep them open.

Not sure if that is an option for you.

Well as of last night the GG's went to the big show. Got a 600 all to themselves in the veg room. Haven't seen a mite in 30 days(knocks on wood). They will go in their final 3.5 pot tonight and veg for a few weeks. I like the frame I have going on all of them. May top them one more time not sure.

Once again some shots of my abuse program for naughty clones. 6 weeks from cut and 4 weeks from rooted. 7 ounce clear cup. No algae at all despite the clear cup. Trying to keep these from growing but they want to go really bad at this point. Healthy as can be though and I only water once a day.

Going to have to transplant them soon though cause they will go on an ebb & flow table while I'm on vaca and I can't have them floating around.

Oh yeah, I'll get to cleaning that table first thing in the new year so it will be good till 2015.

Damnit, does no one stock cut-ur-own spark plug wires anymore? Trying to get an old genny going and gonna have to drive 6 miles outside the city to get a set of plug wires. wtf? we are supposed to get 1 inch of ice and stay below freezing for the next 5 or 6 days. Power is gonna be out for sure. Still have to come up with a genny for the grow. Funny thing is my bros wife is gonna be pissed if the grow room is nice and toasty and her house is dark lol

 

[dansbuds]

Thanx 3rd .... i do get my nutes from the shop but he doesn't carry AN's PH down so i have to order it . if it doesn't show very soon I'm gonna have to buy a bottle of that GH crap .

really weak lighting will slow the growth down on those GG's 3rd . i keep my moms under a single tube t5 & they stay pretty dormant till i put them under the big T5 rack when i need cuts .

 

[thewhitelotus]

Third, on that first pick of the GG, if you were to top em again, do you top each one of those shoots? looks like you have 6 main branches at this point...

Good evening fellow IC people,
So with so much interest...here are the males.
And as I have picked up reading lots of posts, and thanks to Pappy for the warning I will make a disclaimer:

Straight guys can view and comment on this thread just as the "knob gobblers", "weenie washers", or "turd burglers".

All are welcome...don't be shy, haha

Want pollen from one male...which one would you choose? If they all suck......tell me and I will chunk all of them...planning on another real seed order so making seeds not really a priority but would like to experiment....just a few branches on each of my females.

Thanks Y'all for looking!

It can be better to use several males instead of a single male. You'll never know how the resulting seeds will grow out and how the offspring will look until they are grown out. But, by using a single male you're actually limiting your genetics that can be passed on. Just because you think you've picked the best male out of the group, doesn't mean that one of the others could be better over all in its genetics.

If you've never collected pollen before and intentionally made seeds, collecting it from one male is a good place to start. Do you know you can keep pollen in the freezer for later use?
