Cof, sorry I forgot to mention you...nice looking ladies, let us know how the new blue smokes.

As for my outside plant, it could have been a hermie or it could have been the male LA confidential I brought over there too. He was blowing clouds of pollen around. My one other plant of my making in my grow room also has some beans but they are all on the lower buds and don't seem to have affected the tops nor the other girls. Either way it's the only smoke I have going right now so beans or no beans it's finishing.

nice NBD COF man swollen calyxtastic!

i got 2 dogs up and barking! better late than never...

went to my outdoors this weekend 2 plants well two sticks with a little bit of fluff you could call the beginnings of buds. theyve been in dirt 19 weeks this week gutted. indoors is doing much better tho!

 

[curious old fart]

Thank you for all of your comments.

The NBD has the diesel taste with the sweetness of the blueberry, making a smooth smoke. The first hit goes right to the stomach and spreads from there with a moderate reach to the head. This would be the ideal smoke for a hangover, by soothing the upset stomach and quietly easing the pain in the head. Strong medical uses without couch-lock...an enjoyable smoke and highly recommended.
I am smoking the bred nbd for this report

Your indoor ladies are looking healthy, you must be treating them right, not subjecting the to that wonderful english liquid sunshine.

Good morning, afternoon or evening, the choice is yours.

All I kept hearing last night were sirens and dogs barking, so this morning I did something about it. I admit the measures I took were drastic, but it just had to be done.


I'm giving the just throw them into some water method a try, in this case spring water, to germinate the beans. Eight of the ten schlock beans I tested popped tap roots...I wonder if they can grow in total darkness in a septic tank? It's still hot as hades here so I rigged up some cfl's I had 'in storage'. I have a couple of those screw in 'Y' sockets that will hold two bulbs each. I figure that should be enough light for a couple of weeks without throwing so much heat off it has extreme detrimental effects on the plants. If they start getting to big, I'll take the t-5 out of my tent and put it into the closet in my bedroom until my current grow is finished. I really need a wall in my grow room for two separate spaces but it would make it way to cramped. I like a good amount of space in my grow room to move around easily, I've dealt with closet grows for months and get tired of squeezing around all the time.

Anyway this is my selection for mother plants. If some of these strains look familiar...don't tell anyone. WOOF!

Thats +1 for hydro 0 for soil...I need something like that but hydro scares me 2 be honest..Im gonna test it out further down the line tho hydro+led=sufficient as hell

I want to switch to hydro as well, soil is costly and a pain in the ass to bring in and get rid of. I was checking out a hydro system for about $400, but just checking it out, trying to figure out how I can make it myself for much less. I think I could leave my soil system for a good 3-4 days with no worry, that is, right after I watered. So not a self sufficient as hydro, not nearly that is. As far as taste and quality of product, in my experience I have to give that to soil. I guess they both have their strengths and weaknesses. Outdoors is still the best, in soil, nothing can beat a properly taken care of outdoor plant. But we are talking about indoor stuff. As far as your test goes, I would not mess with LED, even the more expensive models dont compare to hps, unless your using equivalent wattage, and then once you get there the reason why you (or most people) decided to use LED gets thrown out the door (electrical efficiency). Not to mention what 600 watts of LED is going to cost compared to hps. Making it very un cost effective. I would save your money, CFLs will do better than LED at this point in technological history, I am just trying to help I might add, not an attack in any way. I say that because LED users seem to get very defensive. I use them myself for veg, with cfls. They do good for veg for the first few weeks and then the plants out grow their effective spread which is very small, pretty much right below the light. Having used both, right next to each other, the CFLs did much better. As far as bud production goes, thats where the LEDs really lack, and you would definitely need some sort of side lighting such as t-5s or cfl for them to get dense like they should. They might get some size, but will be airy compared to something grown with hps, or with extra side lighting like I said before to compliment the LED. Look around, check out the LED threads, and then come back to club 600 and see what the people are doing here, and you wont think about LEDs anymore. Just my opinion though. Take it as you like.

Hey guys here is my first grow, 600w switchable light. I used the cheap MH bulb that came with the sys but I bought a Hydrolux HPS for flowering and I was happy I did. The plants are Norhern lights from Nirvana seed bank. They are 42 days into flowering right now so when they finish I should have some big buds!

Im not sure what your saying here? Did you pull a plant?

COF-I grew a Blue Diesel outdoors this year. I second your description. Very well put. Mine doesnt have s super pungent smell, but its nice and frosty. I have had good yields with "blue" strains.

SHF-Im scared of soil indoors, so we're even. I dont use any "special" soils that cost an arm and a leg. I just use 4 parts native soil, 1 part manure (from home depot), and 1 part composted garden soil (also from home depot), and that cost for those bags are about $3.

OI-I am going to disagree with you about the taste and quality of herb being best in soil. I have smoked indoor soil herb from local dispensaries, and the taste was lacking compared to hydro. It also grows alot less dense in soil. My oudoor this years is the densest I have ever seen with outdoor (we have had wierd weather, and it hasnt been that hot) but its not as dense as even my worst hydro. And so starts the discussion of hydro to soil quality......

 

[Outdoorindica]

2-3 pounds on a single plant, thats all I should have to say for outdoors. And its the outdoor quality that is the best, no light on the market has the proper spectrum to make the plant produce everything it is supposed to. Thats why when people use different lights together they get more resin production and stuff like that, but you can put everything out there combined and you still dont have the suns exact spectrum. And the plants need exactly what the sun puts off to produce at its maximum capability. Of course we help as well with the feeding and different mediums, such as soil and hydro. Hydro greenhouses kick ass. I should have been more specific, with organics you will get your best taste, I would imagine that hydro organics are just as good if not better due to the growth you can get with hydro compared to soil. And the fact that you can flush EVERYTHING from the plant, no soil or anything touching the roots. If you have never had dense buds outdoors you were doing something wrong SS, I have had some huge, dense buds outdoors, with bag seed that came from mid grade stuff. When I started using quality genetics it only got better. But outdoor growing was my specialty I guess you could say, I had very good spots, and the weather where I am at is fantastic for growing cannabis.

Strictly...the sirens, I put a casey jones into the water...the sirens, train whistles, and the dogs barking, a DOG also went swimming. It was a play on words and obviously a poor one.

As for soil being expensive, I agree, if you use foxfarms soil which I no longer use. For the cost of a bag of a cubic foot of ocean forest, today I picked up a bag of Scott's and a bag of spaghnum peat moss, both two cubic feet for twenty bucks, enough soil for two grows easily. I add perlite and worm castings along with root stuff and that's it. All I can say in the taste area between hydro and soil...that's why they make chocolate and vanilla, not everyone likes the same thing.

 

[jigfresh]

with organics you will get your best taste.

If there was such thing as "best taste" there would only be one restaraunt in the world a million times over.

Some people like one kind of taste, other's another... and another... etc.

I can taste the difference from soil and hydro. I personally like the way chemically produced hydro buds taste over soil. I also like kraft macaroni and cheese with the cheese powder shit over home made stuff. To me fake ass cheese powder tastes "better" than real cheese. Go figure.

And I've never grown outdoors, so I'm speaking out of my ass with this... but I beleive you can get denser buds from growing indoors. Bash me if you like. I think a 1000w light 6 inches away is capable of major density.

lol heads up. I thought you were hearing cops all around and got freaked and harvested all the outdoor girls. Better luck next time, haha. Sometimes the internet has a way of killing humor. Well not the interenet I guess... just speaking over text will do that. ALso has a way of making sarcasm disappear too.

mr west, you are obviously an avid golfer. It's getting to be time for the weather to change and I can once again pick up the sticks. Since I've started my 'new' hobby, my old one has suffered. I probably haven't played a half dozen rounds in the past year and a half and I probably have two dozen golf courses within twenty miles of my house. I think florida is the golf mecca of the world. Last I remember seeing we have something like 1,300 courses in the state? Where I work...used to work, there must be thirty golf courses, I had a guy give me a set of Tommy Armour irons that were sitting in his garage. Some of these people have five and six sets of clubs. One of the other guys was given a set of Ben Hogan irons for free from another customer. Looking forward to shooting my first 105 of the season.

 

[Heads Up]

Jigfresh, there are cops all around and I do hear sirens all the time. The chief of police lives on the next street over and my little town of 3,500 people, the cops do not like speeders and one of the main drags through my little town is fifty yards from my house so they catch a lot of speeders there. Hell, I've come home to the police right in front of my house giving someone a ticket. There is also a school crossing right up the street from me so when a speeder goes through there, they generally catch up to them at my house...and it's starting to reek of skunk and kush.

All my girls are safe, none have been pulled.

Thank God there's someone else out there I could play a competitive round with. I would be stoked with 105, lol. It's all about consistency. I can hit par on a couple... but mostly 7's and 8's on the others.

Not so bad on the par 3's what do you shoot on the 5's?

Actually once I get going, I generally shoot in the low nineties, every once in a while the upper eighties. With that being said, I try to do my best every time out, but more importantly is to have fun.
