But this Burning Man has gave me another good possible mom......its looks nice can't wait tomorrow I promise those pics. The Key Lime x Dos is looking pretty good, I'm not sure if the Stonington Soil mix is better than Ocean Forest or Happy Frog?? That's something that really needs me using the Stonington soil, because it is heavy. You gotta add the perlite!!! I've still got half a bag I'm putting in that 20gal tub in my outdoor thread, got that bigger Key Lime x Dos I started to use in this grow. I've got a Coco Block, Promix, Stonington, and whatever else I can find to fill up

Yea the Birthday Banger just come up. But there Grapology, Lemon Tree x Lemon Jack, and Double Sundea that have been great. I'm growing more to try to get a few clones!!!! I will definitely get some more Rado stuff coming through!!! There's some DNA Kosher Kush on way also!!! So there's a lot of heat going to be coming through my thread!!! I'm really excited about those.

I do have 1 extra OGKB 2.0 I was glad I noticed as I am still easing outta the side attachment, yes the wife's like how are those every gonna get outta there if you keep planting lol. But as nice as this Burning Man looks I'll get some pics of, I can probably do 6-8 of the BM next grow. There's a few plants that's gonna roll through untouched. I've got about 5-6 different Female Seeds strains I need to run this next grow that's from seed. I've got at least 2 and maybe 5-6 of both the Tahoe OG clones I'D pray keep doing good and run all the clones and keep the original seed moms. If I can get the Tahoe OG clone I want, and hopefully the Kosher Kush isn't overhyped, I've heard some say the Holy Grail Kush, The OG #18, and the stacked Kush from DNA I've heard is good. Kinda excited I've never ran any DNA stuff, even back in the day. I mainly went capt crip, CaliConnection, or OG Raskal. Taking the absence I did from growing and smoking. I can tell there's A lot of OG Fire it was called , some of the WiFi I think taste kinda OG Fire like. It's really your flavour preference unless your going straight OG SFV, which I plan to run after I get the Tahoe OG clones.


Also got a 7 or 10gal bucket to put on my dehumidifier.....the 5gals I've been slipping in dumping everyday that's overflowing. I might have to set the dehumidifier up another foot or so but glad to come accross that. Man it's my buddy and he's got a fuckin huge flower pot but would have to tie it to my vehicle, or the back of a truck. It makes my 20gal tube look really small. If I could get that SOB home lol, I'm just kinda taking it easy outdoors after all the talk about odor. Thank God there partying folks or my ass would probably be in jail. And I've found a nosy neighbor that's staying in the woods. Sorry to ramble on I'll get some pics!!!

I had the Tahoe and the SFV crossed with a grape stomper bx and they had a super intense terp profile. You got quite the lineup. I'm looking to get into some kind of outdoor guerilla grow this year. Deep out in the woods, only issue is deer lol. That pot does sound like some fun though haha.

Here's the Burning man, the above 2, 3 are ECSD mainly, The last pic is a ECSD from last wk. It looks lime green as can be and sticky, everything is frosty and sticky with a lot of growing. That Burning Man is the original Momma so she's gonna be big. I dunno I hope the smoke is good I've got 7-8 ready to Veg a couple weeks and have Huge ladies like the Mom. If I'd took that pic on the other side it would showed up better. I'm gonna start getting more pics, this grow I don't see a plant yet not covered in frost yet but those small 2 clones I added. I got those 2 sitting on a 20gal Xmas tote under some good Updayday Leds. Just raise them higher to the light, I've got my lights were there at til the grows over. I could maybe add several in a couple places. I think I underestimated the old HPS last grow. I think if I'd used at least 1 1000w hps the buddage would've been A LOT better. You still gotta have at least mid level Leds. The really cheaper made ones don't penetrate like a 300$ SP 250 from Mars Hydro, which you can't really expected them too. The Updayday are probably the best I've used besides the SP 250 which you can't compare because the price. Xecoon lighting has a Smart Series 3522 that's awsome. Those SP 250s are brutes I'll tell you. If I can get the money saved or for Xmas get another SP 250 to put with the other I have. You can chain 3 of those!!!! I'd like to see that. Heck I have never touch my 250 from the factory. I could turn it up but it probably wouldn't help alot, it's one of the brightest lights I've ever seen. I just need another so I can legit get 5-6 plants in 5gal buckets under 2 of the 250s. I definitely think you'll have some meat when you bump it up some!!!

I surely hope everyone is getting along in the Covid 19 world. I've not seen a few of my friends online in quite awhile. And I know my 1 buddy was gonna help with some more advice on the ECSD. Hopefully he's just taking a break, he's not been online in awhile March I think. I know he's on the EC so the numbers are much worse on the East Coast. Hopefully I hear from him soon, I've been on overgrow first and it got shut down smh, I was afraid to even register on icmag until like 08, but I was basically a member after overgrow got shut down. I had some nice grows from back in the day I'd like to have pics of. I had some insane White Widow fem from Dutch Passion around 03-04 I'd say. Also those 3 pheno of BB Dutch Passion had was A LOT better. I never really got any good BB, and also dropped about 200$ on the True Blue......huge disappointment, they were some nice males but I'm only a grower. I've got killer stuff on the cheap also, these guys at Rado have caught my eye. Like 5 strains I've grew that's REALLY good, also these Exotix Genetix stuff is looking great. This Burning Man is Triple OG x Spirit in the sky I think, I think I listed the wrong OG it's crossed too. But be safe guys, hopefully I can bring this grow to harvest. I've kinda moved some of my plants with smaller buds near the HPS. At this point after testing the Mars Hydro SP250. I don't think unless you've got a expensive light Led that your gonna get what HPS will. Now if I had 3-4 of these LEDs I'd be good. But I haven't even got my stimulus so I can't go all-in Led. I'm gonna leave at least 1 1000w hps in all grows, once I get the money to get enough good Leds it's hard to beat a Sunlight Supply 1000w hps. The Mars Hydro, Updayday maybe the most impressive that doesn't have the meanwell driver. I've grew several nice great under those 1000w Updayday Leds, and that Burning Man Mom is under the new 1800w

Here's a 17.5gal tube with rope handles I'll probably put the larger Key Lime x Dos in. That'll be a good size pot for outdoors around here. I usually do about 30+ 5gal buckets of different strains but probably won't put 4-5 total outdoors this year. I've probably put a BM clone or 2 in a 5gal bucket with the Auto NL I'm trying!!

Yea if I had some Panda Film and I'd like to at least try a grow or so using Co2 and get some more weight bumped up. It needs some White Paint and I'd like to Paint the floor. I just do it as I get enough cash to too. I'm needing to get in there and get some lower foliage cut. Probably grab me a box fan. It's been so hot and wet outside I've barely kept a 5gal bucket emptied fast enough. I got a 7gal or 10 I thinks gonna help, at least keep the floor dry. I've got a sump pump if water seeps in bad that helps also. I've got some much stuff Vegging, And some stuff getting cuts for. I've also kinda played with the idea of adding a drip system . I just have to move stuff around sometimes and would need to be able to disconnect everything. I don't really know anything about setting up a drip system. But I've wanted to try a 4 bucket DWC also. I'm probably better carrying my water. It just gets rough when them ladies need a half-gal depending on size

Yea man he's probably just took some time off I hope. All my icmag buddies are internet friends. I wish I was close to visit some of them. I used to live around Chicago but I'm a complete 180 from there. This WV is old old school. Most the younger guys are using meth, herion, and there's only a handful compared to 20yrs ok how many guys smoke weed. It's pain pills, meth, garbage heroin I'm sure. Very poverty stricken area unlike a,big city

Same deal for me brotha. Small town full of junkies. Sad to see. I haven't been on this site long but it didn't take me long to realize there's a shit ton of cool people on here. That DWC sounds fun... hope you can control that humidity.

Here's some ECSD and others, the last bud pic is the Key Lime x Dos and those under the HPS are fattening up. I definitely will keep at least 1 1000w hps in all grows. I definitely needed to add last grow too. Man I'm going to feed them and I'm gonna be sticky from head to toe!!!

I figured that 1000W HPS was gonna add some juice to those buds. Definitely can't go wrong with that lighting. Doing a great job, bro.:tiphat:

I'd just about go back to both 1000w hps, and several Mars Hydro and Updayday Leds. It's hard to still beat HPS, I'm not noticing much price difference especially to put some meat on the Buds. That Hortilux only has one grow I think on it. But it seems you gotta have a Led that will penetrate!!!! I'm gonna have to get some of this old house rewired and I'll probably buy another 1000w hps ballast and hood lol. My back bedrooms lost power awhile ago. Everything I go to replace is wired wrong or backwards. It's been like this awhile, I know I've got a 20amp breaker I need to replace. I checked them all and they show correct voltage. If I knew were they fucked up at I could probably fix it. But if I replace a outlet correct shit won't work. I'll have to wire it backwards it was. I found a few good plugs, but have a lot more power if the house was wired correct. Which if I could even get somebody that could do it, it's hard a 200 or 250amp. Used to have tanning beds and stuff hooked up. My cousin was a electrician or at least knew a little about it he was certified but young. He overdosed several yrs back or me and him could figure it out. See I'll have to hide the grow completely if I'd hire anybody. Shut it down, I've got old wiring the house could definitely benefit from a rewire and all the plugs replaced. If I replace anymore I'm just wiring it back like it was for now.


Gonna add the Silica, Calmag, Tiger Bloom, and maybe a little Grow and Floricilous today. That's a great cocktail you just gotta add the Silica first, at least this brand. I think I'll go back to Silica Blast over the Silica from General. I'm not 100% sure but I like the Blast which I've used more. But that's were I'm at. I wanna get that Silica in there again. I usually start backing off about a mth before or so harvest with Silica. I've heard guys talk about there weed not burning good, having to keep relighting. So I just back of the Silica and add the high in K seaweed bliss of something, I think it's 0-0-17 NPK.


The clones in the machines were doing good it's like 2 days in, I'm keeping the water temp around 68-70. Them got a cold ass night that dropped it to 62-63 and fucked up most. I think I might've got a few Tahoe OG clones so that's great. I was adding ice cubes because it was getting up to 71 that one day. I wasn't excepting the cold or I'd had my heat mat hooked to my Ink-bird themostat to kick on!!!!

Heres more from this afternoon, keeping the nutes flowing heavy this grow. Some of the earlier finishing buds like that Burning Man mom, the ECSD are the buds you can tell are gonna take awhile. Man this BM is a mother a nature, back 55-60 days is gonna push it, for a mounth long veg. If the smokes good this could be that under 60 day strain maybe. It might go longer. I can already see buds forming on the BM clone, a lot more than the Sour Valley clone. I've got several OGKB 2.0 that are looking great. I've got one huge plant that's super nice.


Guys I'm going run some plants next grow probably 5-6 from Female Seeds that I'll post in there forum. But they'll still get the same love in my thread. There's several other breeders I'd like to get into the thread. I've got several plants that are kinda bigger than seedlings I'm growing to try for clones. My thoughts at this point if I can't get some clone from Serious Strawberry AKs I have I dunno if I should just flower them out and pop a couple more!!! I've also got a great strain from my bubby I've planted 3 hopefully get a fem, the Super Creame Cookies and several other strains I'm looking for that mother plant. Man I loved the Moby Dick last year from Dinafem, these last 2 I'm definitely wanting to get this. That old school WW I've not smoked in awhile. I think with train and SUPER cropping I'll get me a good Moby Dick mom, something that kills it outdoors also. The Seedsman Blueberry has those big leaves I believe it's the Indy pheno. I'm looking for the sativa with the fruity pebbles taste!!! I had a nice BB Indy mom and flowered her out outdoors last year. So I'd definitely like that try some new and old Dutch Passion stuff. They used to have a great bunch of breeders circa early 2000s and on. It's just been awhile since I've ordered something from them. I think fingers crossed I got 4 Tahoe OG, 2 of each strain. One strain has bigger leaves in these Tahoe OG, almost WiFi like maybe smaller. Plus I've got a ton of new products I'll be announcing to give a try, like the Mikrobs and Leds, Fans, Carbon Filters, Nutes, Maybe Co2, I'm gonna try to keep showing new stuff. Like those ink-bird thermostats are very good, and there's tons of models. Possibly have a few if anybody is interested in one of the ink birds to have a few to give away. But I'd like to give them to guys that's running a thread and can start using it. Ink-birds a great company just leave me a message if you'd like to test/try one in your grow, free of charge. So message and I'll give you a email if your interested in using those and kinda showing the guys at icmag how good they work. Thanks to everybody who enjoys the thread. I usually try to get some outdoors pics when I harvest. I'll maybe try to use the wife's iPhone and get some nice pics of this harvest. There's so much of a difference in the buds this grow. I was about 25-30 days I think when I started the dehumidifier last grow and went all Leds. The Lemon Tarts are good, but I think those big SLK needed some HPS last grow. Stay safe guys and hopefully I can harvest this beautiful start. I'm not gonna lie I feel it's took me several grows since I've come back to get it dialed WV style. And it's getting there!!!!! Finally
