I have a Flowermate v5.0s which I recently got myself for my birthday xD

I love the little thing.

It's the size of a wallet, so pocket friendly. And very discreet looking.
Battery is enough for 8 five-minute sessions.
3 heat settings.
The herb slot has space for about 0.5g.
Super clean inhales with awesome white clouds. (depends on the quality of herb too, of course)

2 consecutive sessions get me and my girlfriend flying like kites.

toke, wait for vapor buildup, toke.

Very intense flavors. Superior to smoking, taste-wise.

I love smoking. Makes for a more intense, more intoxicating high.
But I LOVE vaping too. Makes for clearer highs with a more controlled aura.
Also, my last tokes of the day are always on the vape. Makes for a great morning the next day.
Wake up with a healthy feeling head & body.


Flowermate V5.0s. I recommend it.

I'm not sure, but in my experience I wouldn't recommend it. It has these fine hard mesh screens that get really gunky after a few vaped flowers. I bet if you used anything that resinous you would stuff it up way too quickly...

Or perhaps if you use the hash in between some shredded flowers, it could work alright. Anyway give youtube a nice search for the model and maybe you'll come across someone trying that out =P

Photo update

I'm aiming harvest at around 8 or 9 April. SO by now I would love to see them pack some weight in, and get those pistils turning brown...

The Devil'Stack is getting bigger. As of now I'd rate it at a 10g yield, maybe. Smells funky! I'm not even joking when I say it almost smells like cherry cough syrup xD Can't wait to smoke it up.
The Amnesia Lemon is still slowish, even though it's now turning up some resin glands. Also way more new white pistils on it. I'm thinking it has a little more sativa in it than the other, and maybe that's going to postpone harvest a few more weeks... Which I wouldn't love...

Anyway, here's how the little haven's looking.

Things are packing nicely. Amnesia is finally tagging along. The nugs on the Devil'Stack are getting harder. By now I can almost certainly say these are the hardest nugs I've produced so far.

Quite exciting. Can't wait to see how it smokes. Smells funky. Sweet-Pine-Fruity. I guess it's got some acidity too. Smells like cough syrup =P

I've now added the UV-B lamp in there. It goes on for 1 hour two times a day. And already I see the impact it makes on the plant. The pistils start maturing almost instantly.

Bye bye white pistils!

Take care boys and girls.

They are looking great Jad. How much longer? I started a new grow in Jan and I am using a new technique..... instead of killing them with kindness this round I'm ignoring them and providing almost no care. Ignoring is much easier to do. One plant even topped itself by growing into the light,... now instead of one top it has a bunch of them! :-)
It is the big one on the left.

Looks nice!
Care to take a pic where we can see it in full?

How far does your "neglect" go though? =P

That top is crazy. :0)

Good stuff Jad. I am glad that this cycle is coming
together so nicely.

Not sure that I like "browning" the hairs though....that
step, when it occurs naturally, is one of my indicators. :0)

I know, and I don't particularly love it either. BUT it is the end of the cycle for me, and the UV-B DOES make a diference in THC output. These babies have a deadline.

It's only been about a week of 2 hours-per-day UV-B exposure, and LOOK AT THOSE CLUSTERS :shock:. Specially on the plant that was supposedly "behind".

And now my lens smells sexy as hell! :weed:

2 weeks to go!

Cheers!

yeah man, uvb plays rather big role not only in production but also in potency, I am waiting for my lamps to arrive, and will be adding UVB for sure. Wanted to do that for over a year now.. what kind of UVB lamp you're using? Does it contain any UVA?

Thanks guys =) After all, I wouldn't be having the results I am without your help. =)

My UVB lamp is a CFL style reptile lamp from the pet store. I think it's got 5% UVB if not mistaken. Not much, but for 2 hours each day, it's working quite nice. I think it's got some minor UVA radiation, but only residual.

There is this reptigrow cfl uvb 2, 5, 10 line of products. I was about to get that, but I managed to find it's spectre somewhere on internet. It had 3times more uva than uvb. If that's also ur case this is what might be causing your pistils to brown off. You might want to look into i.e. reef stores for true actinic t5ho lamps. Cause ppl i follow they use them all of the day and have no browning.. just saying..

Looking great as always Jad! I still have several weeks left on mine. This is my lazy round though.... and when I harvest I'm just going to trim the real good stuff, then make coconut oil out of the rest........you can eat it for what ails you or just rub it all over your body and become some slippery crazy dude for many hours!

Hey JAd!!! We haven't heard from you in over a week!!! Are you still growin??? I thought I might dump my 'no peek' tent grow harvest here to keep the thread going. The only thing I did inside the tent was raise the light and add a net to keep them from fallin over. The plants are over 5 feet tall and I will harvest in 2 or more weeks.

Hey guys, sorry for the long time without response! I was away from the country for a week with my academic musical group!
Good times. And high ones at that. ahaha

Here are a few photos I took before leaving! I'm about to start harvesting right NOW! =D

They where VERY yellow, I know, but I think it's mostly because of the early flush.

Stand by for some harvest pics in a while =)

Jad!!! What did you do to those plants??? Did you torture them??

Just ignoring them works better for me. :bigjoint:

I'm growing in a tent now...they are 5 ft tall and I can't open the tent or it will start falling over. I feed them from the outside. :clap:
