Larry OG vs. Tahoe OG in Dual Monster Plant System (2nd Scrog)

I figure if I ever need to blow-torch some handcuffs off...

It's pretty cool... I mean HOT.

Okay, so that blunt was pretty nice, but let's face it, it's a fucking cigar. I'm not into the 'cigar-mouth' it gives you, so I finally went with this:

First time ever I'm trying these fancy clear wraps. It's a transparent cellulose paper replacement.

Says it's biodegradable, non-plastic (I certainly hope so), and does not alter the flavor of your favorite herb.

I've found that if I'm not smoking a bong, I have to roll a pretty big one to get high. It's the best way to experience your flavor characteristics as well.

Almost as big as the blunt.

And a lot more interesting to look at. I thought it would be difficult to roll, but it was surprisingly easy to handle.

It's interesting. But how does it smoke?

It's great. It's true. It does taste cleaner than a paper joint.

I'm sold. I put it out and it's right here next to me in my ashtray. Smells incredible. I'm very high.

exactly. they are everywhere and anywhere, just have to respond in a way that doesn't stir up too much i guess. but after RIU massive failure's and there issues with the liking system and alot of other things. Grass city seems to be the choice although i did have to repost, but that was my fault, but if have any more ddgy issues, i will go back to keeping it to myself, and little people will get to learn my style of growing i guess, same goes for jin' i can see alot of people leaving if even 1 more thing went dodgy. next week riu will probably shutdown due to loss of too many members
yeah, they should make this an advantage to upgrade the site or something, i mean theyve lost the like button and all that shit. theres ways to make this site more simple, idk why they dont do it now since everybodys leaving anyway. i bet plenty of people who do web design would be glad to volunteer to make this site better, but its not my site so i cant judge.

I'd seen them around for a while, but always was kinda freaked out by it too. Glad I tried it. I would recommend, especially if you're trying to impress a chick.

So how do I get the leaves to be shiny like yours?

Edit: Did it taste like strawberry?
There's a lot of different talk concerning leaf shininess, but I think it's just mostly strain dependent.

Yeah, sorta like strawberry when you get closer to the middle. But like strawberry candy or gum, not like a real strawberry.

Are they shiny from the start or does it develop with maturity?
I do believe it has something to do with the absorption of a certain element that promotes shininess (I forget which). There are times when overly shiny leaves could be a sign of a nutrient imbalance for example. But it depends on the overall bearing of your plants... as in if your plants are bursting with health and the leaves are bright and shiny, there certainly isn't a problem.

The Tahoe was just a less shiny strain compared to Larry which shines like a mirror. Plus Tahoe was hit harder by the algae attack on the roots than Larry, so suffered an extra dull period on her leaves. But as she regained her health, she developed a sheen (but nothing like Larry).

The Larry is looking so good! The frostiness is making my mouth water and I bet the smell is heavenly.

Edit: I was just on the Nute Sticky and it mentions that zinc can make leaves shiny!

Look at that rich, brown caramel developing as it burns. It's so fucking potent now, you gotta be careful with this thing.

I'm still tasting that heavy earthy note that made me cough my lungs out just now. Joints rarely make me cough. But what a joint...

I never thought such a thing would come to pass, either. But you can't smoke a bowl without a lighter right? And I have to say this thing is pretty bad-ass.

Not surprisingly, I, like countless other stoners, lose my lighters. I tried having a bunch laying around to solve this problem. It works for a while, but they all seem to vanish in the end. Just too damned small and hard to spot on short, stoned notice.

Not only is thing big enough so that it's pretty near impossible to misplace or lose sight of when stoned, it's a real hand torch... not one of those cheap things that work for only a little while. And if you like guns, well...

The huge thumb plunger lets you know you're getting a powerful light.

The air pressure nozzle regulator turns the torch flame into a regular bbq lighter flame with just a flick.

Funny story. I seem to be arguing with all the store clerks I buy things from these days. When I took it home and fueled it, it sprayed pressurized fluid all over the place, but managed to fill somewhat. I rushed back to the store where I bought it. The dude started telling me that I simply need to use the adapter on the lid of the fuel can to prevent the spraying when filling. He asked if it worked at all and I said, "Yeah! I got some in. It's just that it sprays everywhere. See? It works fine!" Click! Foosh! (I had it on max - on max this thing is a deadly weapon)... The dude almost took cover! You should have seen him flinch! LOL! But can you blame him? Look at this thing.

How would you like to stare down the barrel of this puppy? On max it's like a fucking light saber. If you're a chick and you smoke, I recommend this over mace... two birds with one powerful, deadly stone. Rock. I'll never lose my lighter again.

Seriously, girls, get one. It's only fifteen bucks. If some asshole tries to hurt you, you can hurt him with this INSTANTLY... BAD. Setting an attacker's hair on fire is a sure fire way to discourage him. You can also blast out an eye or leave a painful burn scar on the face of an attacker that will remind him of this lighter for the rest of his life.

And the most important thing that makes this beauty a handy weapon is that in addition to being 1300 C / 2500 F in flame intensity, you can flail it around like a knife and the flame never goes out, loses shape or force. It's a total flame knife. Awesome.

But far be it from me to promote violence... this thing is for smoking weed. Why? The high-speed combustion of the bud makes the hits smoother.

Everything I said above? Forget it. Girls, this would NOT make an effective purse weapon!... Stopped working shortly after I typed my glowing review.

So I took it back to the store and exchanged with three of these cheaper pocket kind, and got the difference in cash.

I don't like Ed Hardy, so I was repelled by that initially, but these work at least.

Nothing an X-acto knife and a little Simple Green can't solve... the cleaner, not the weed... nothing simple about that green.

These little jobs are actually pretty cool now that I removed those dorky decals. And as I stated above, the jet flame def gives a superior tasting hit.

Did not know that when I removed them from PB that they would go away on RIU. So I added them directly until I refresh PB.

Edit: Going to check on the baby and take some pics.
