    Vero 18s, 29s and a cabinet full of stanky goodness

    Well, my grow came to a finish a few days early. Tonight I was inspecting the buds before lights out, and found some mold/bud rot on one of the Satori colas. Fortunately it was isolated to the 1 cola in the back corner of the cabinet that doesn't get much air flow, the rest of the buds were...

    Mandala Seeds- Chill Om

    :bigjoint: I'm in the home stretch with the Satori - next weekend I'll trim off a small sample bud to test where she's at, and if she's ready I'll chop her on day 70. It's been a few years since I've had Satori in a jar, so I am pretty excited for this run to finish up. :weed:

    Other than being super stretchy and floppy, the Fire OG has been a really easy plant to grow. It's not fussy at all, just drop her in some soil and she explodes. The buds are not that large, but are fairly dense and there's a lot of them. The stems are really thin though, so it needs support...

    Day 59: A few pics I took yesterday of the 2 remaining ladies - getting some purple on the Satori, which is kinda cool. The FOG will probably get cut in 8-9 days, but the Satori might need a little longer, as she seemed to take a bit longer to start flowering (maybe because of the high temps)...

    NVHAK49s Cabinet Garden!

    Nice, I didn't know you were doing the seed thing too. Not to many people take the time to make seeds, which is surprising when you look at how expensive seeds are. It's pretty easy to do too. Not sure who the breeder was for GSC, but it's a fairly easy cut to find around NorCal - same with Blue...

    I'm moving to DIY country...

    It's from the movie Idiocracy, which when it came out it was considered a comedy about the future of America. Unfortunately, in present day, it's looking more like a documentary of real life America.

    NVHAK49s Cabinet Garden!

    I've smoked some GSC before - it's pretty nice stuff. Did you get that strain from a cutting, or do they have seeds out for it now? Haven't had the Lemon Kush though. I'm in the Sacramento area of CA - summers here can be pretty brutal, but it's pretty nice the rest of the year. I've got 10...

    NVHAK49s Cabinet Garden!

    I love it when the plants are nearing the finish, and you know your're about to be rewarded for all the hard work you put into growing them. Your party cup comp plants are looking good too. Cooler weather is forecasted for my area next week (back down into the 80's), so I'm hoping my 2 remaining...

    REVEIW: Go Green LEDs 4 COB Cree CXB3070 200 watt panel $450

    Is air able to get into the side vents with your Osram lights up against go green lights? You might want move the Osram lights out just a hair so the middle light can breathe a bit. Looks like a decent light though.

    ***The 7th Official Party Cup Grow Competition Thread***

    Sorry I didn't get in the comp this year. I wanted to, but had to travel to LA and Minneapolis the last couple weeks for work, plus (insert excuse here), and blah, blah, blah, I failed. Good luck to all of the contestants who haven't killed off their plants yet. Now that I know this is a thing...

    I sampled the Fire OG bud this week, and the plant is definitely not ready yet. The high was really racy and heady (like a land-race sativa), and I'm looking for a more balanced slightly stony buzz, so I'm going to let it run the full 10 weeks. I was hoping for some cooler weather in Sept so my...

    high output led strips

    I just emailed Redbird for a quote with shipping on 2 of the 2' strips at 44 watts and 4100k. If it's around $80 I'll probably order them, since it's cheaper than the COB/driver/heatsink options I was looking at, and the LEDs look pretty decent at 139 lm/w. I do find it curious though that on...

    REALSTYLES 6th DIY CXA 3590 5000k DB bin

    True that 1000w of LED will produce the same heat as 1000w HPS. But if you run an efficient COB setup and can produce the same number of photons at the canopy with 600w of LED as you'd get with 1000w of HPS, then you have 400w less heat to manage.

    high output led strips

    Are the Red Bird strips available from a retailer (online), or do you have to contact them directly to order? I'd be interested in a couple of 2' strips for an indoor lettuce/spinach/spice garden I'm thinking of setting up during the winter. Is there a price list for the different setups somewhere?

    Vero 18s, 29s and a cabinet full of stanky goodness

    I checked the Fire OG trich's under a 40x scope this afternoon, and was surprised to see that it was already about 80% cloudy, 10% clear and 10% amber. I haven't even hit the 8 week mark, and I think this strain is supposed to go 9-10 weeks. I'm guessing that the running the lights at 12/12 and...

    Thanks, yours are coming along nicely too, aside from the ph issue, which I'm sure they will recover from and finish strong. The Veros are definitely doing well. I think my Fire OG might be ready to chop in 2 weeks or so - the Satori prolly needs 3-4 weeks. Both are sticky and stinky. I've...

    CXB3590 1500W

    If you're up for making your own 'flower initiator' with far red LEDs, there's a thread for that: https://www.rollitup.org/t/the-far-red-thread.867665/ I just built one using a 12v wall wart, 12v timer relay, 3 Cree Far Red LEDs and a small driver. You don't need a lot of wattage - I used...

    Maxsea grow: My plants are dying!. Need help identifying the problem

    I'm in the Sac area too, and have picked up different cuts of Sour D from different dispensaries, and all of them have been a pain in the ass to grow. Not sure if this is normal for the strain, but they all seem to be very ph sensitive. I'm using some Maxsea for some indoor plants and a couple...
