The pineapple was the better of the two, It did have some flavor to it. The kush just tasted like harsh kush lol Did you save some bananas from it?

Ive never owned a vaporizer. I plan on buying one eventually, my wife is really the one that is interested in getting on, go figure. Its just that they are a bit expensive for a smoking device, and the cheap ones look cheap. How long has yours lasted? Satisfied with it? Pricey? Ill never win the battle against technology.

I didn't save the bananas, though there are a couple still stuck in the buds that are hanging to dry. I don't want hermie pollen...

As for the vaporizer ----> https://www.rollitup.org/medical-marijuana-news/304788-new-herbalaire-h2-1-full.html

$250 with a 3 year warranty and free shipping. I bought it direct here ----> http://www.herbalaire.com/shop.htm

I LOVE it. The main advantage is it uses an air pump instead of a fan. The pump evenly cooks the bud WITHOUT GRINDING...just shove it in there and fill a bag. I think it's the same concept as the Volcano, just $350 less expensive. 2 of my friends have already purchased one after using mine a few times. One of my friends went with a different, fan-powered vape and it doesn't hold a candle to the herbalaire, and he paid $50 more. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I thought banana pollen is 80-100% female. Its said to be one of the proven methods of producing feminized seeds. I havent tried it, but I researched it so i could hopefully make my own feminized seeds in the future. Ive been leaning toward calling a seed bank and asking, but it seems it would be easier to just use clones, than to try and make feminized seeds.

As for the vaporizer, Im surprised people would buy a volcano. The Herbalaire does the same thing, and is half the price! Ill more than likely get this model. Thank you for showing me. I love the warranty too, Electronics always seem to fail on me.

Happy Holidays!

Thanks Jerry! Yes im using the entire line. I hope to see good results too.

Mr.smileyface, why do you say they suck? They contain the soil-less mix and roots just like my pots and they both have drainage holes in the bottom.
Yea i used them when i had to plant 130 of them. Got a couple off with those and couldnt handle them anymore. They are a cunt to fill. U have to shovel the dirt in.
The pots you can scoop the dirt up from the bale.
When you water the pots dont fall over lol. The grow bags are a nightmare in the bigger shows. The pots are all i use. 1-2 gallon. 16-32 depending per 1000w depending on veg time and pot size.. I do 20-25 a light and veg for two weeks
No more than 4'x4' unless you have digital ballast you can get away with 4x5.
My last grow i pulled 1.2 a light and hoping for more considering the upgrades (more Btus of cooling) And a completly sealed room. Im aiming for 1.5 X 8 :):evil: Purple kush all the way. Ill stay tuned for the vert. Let you know what i think, I might share a few pics later on.

Yo they find the ones that dont hermie under intense stress and then give them chemicals to make them hermie. They grab the pollen from that and pollenate another female.
Just what i heard, not a fact.

Haha I feel your pain! 130 bags would give me a heart attack, I only deal with 8-10 at a time. As for the pollen, its all a mystery until we go and do it ourselves.

Thanks for tagging along! Enjoy the Holidays!

The 5 gal grow bags came in. Im happy with them so far. I noticed the bags have more drain holes than the plastic pots do. Also 10 of them came in the mail in a 10"x12"x1.5" envelope, very discreet compared to plastic pots. Pictuers, one of the inside of a bag, One of a bag next to a 3 gal plastic pot, and a 5 gal smart pot.

Bad news! My camera broke today. I have another but i cant find the cord for it. I have a warranty so I sent it in and should get it back by the time i start the new grow.

I made a Mother Box today. Its a 28"Wx28"Hx16"D frame wrapped in mylar, with a 68w 2700k cfl on top and 4 2 foot 24w 2700k T5s in the corners. I would like to have daylight bulbs, but this is what i had lying around. It will house 1 or 2 mother plants, so i can take cuts instead of buying seeds. Pictures will go up once i find the camera cord.

how was the smoke off that bubbelicious i've got a few nirvana strains i've been unhappy with the germ rate, i put em in cubes so i dont handle them at all after they crack they all crack for the most part betwwen 8-10 usually and then i get maybe 3 total that live out of the batch. You can look in the cubes and see the split seed but it just decides not to push out. Its not grower error as i have seeds from other places going right now with 100% success rate. Just curious because i probably wont be going through nirvana again and i want to know what the finished product of some of their stuff is like since i have some planted.

Is the super skunk nirvana as well?

Its awesome. It tastes like bubblegum, very smooth too. The Super Skunk is from nirvana too. I have had 100% germ rate and all female so far with their fem seeds. All the bud has been better than i expected. The only problem ive had was with the auto fem line, I had males show up. They stopped selling them right after. Did you buy fem? Did you go through attitude or Nirvana directly? If direct, did you buy from nirvana shop or nirvana seeds? Common mistake. My Favorites are the Bubblicious and Blue Mystic, Because of the bubble gum taste, and the berry taste. They are both also very smooth smoke, when cured properly.

Managed to figure out how to send pictures from my cell phone to my email. Pictures of the mother box.

There will be a computer fan intake and there are vents in the lid.

I can keep 2 mothers in 1 gallon pots because ill need less than 10 cuts per mother each run.

Thanks mane, I like it too. It cost me $5 dollars for a mylar blanket, everything else i had already. I just need to hook up a fan and timer. :)

This is the feeding chart i am going to be following, with the addition of diamond black. Im not going to adjust the ph at first because the package says dont adjust ph. However I will check the ph and ppm and record them. This way if I see any nutrient deficiencies, Ill know how to correct it.

I think recording pH and ppm is a good call, but you won't need to adjust anything. You'll see.

As for the chart...I tend to avoid charts wherever possible. Every plant is different, every base medium is different, so feeding is not as uniform as a chart like that might indicate. But it is a pretty good place to start.

Yeah i figured i would use the chart as like a guideline, and adjust dosage as the plants need it.

One thing I just noticed on the chart...those two Sub-cultures on the bottom...I haven't seen those before. Are you planning on using those as well? I don't think my hydro store carries that stuff, or maybe I just missed it (unlikely as I've been through that place enough). Could be interesting.

I use Blue Mountain Organics Super Plant Tonic as a source of beneficial microbes...it's basically a specially brewed tea they package and sell online. It has worked very well with the GO stuff too.
