Good idea. Although that would knock out my middle space, which is ideal for growing party cups!

Hey Kine, subbed, looking good, interested to see the differences in production between these lights. There's always some give/take required for side-by-sides or comparisons. Just finishing a run with those LG panels and it killed me to not enhance/add more lighting but the test was to see how well those off-the-shelf lights could flower so had to hold back. Agree with hyroot's post though, should separate them, and that reflective insulation is great for that in that it doesn't eat up much space but would separate and stop any light bleed from one to the other. Besides, looks like you may place (at least ahead of me!) in that party cup grow, suck it up - lol

I suggest a barrier, you say "meh". Hyroot suggest the same thing, shortly thereafter, and its deemed a "good idea". WTF?Good idea. Although that would knock out my middle space, which is ideal for growing party cups!

Yup the filipino witch doctor definitely does make me question your credibility lol.Itz your threatening Japanese avatar people are 'wrestling' with bruv...
In the end he shot down hyroots idea too since it would limit his grow space, which is pretty understandable.

The good idea was the "reflective insulation foam boards", to which I acknowledged hyroot's suggestion. I'm still probably going to leave it as is at any rate, as the middle is prime real estate for party cups, and I have a number of different beans I'm in the middle of testing out, and the space between the lights is perfect for that.

I've got a new round of party cups going in the tent shortly...just so little time I can devote daily to this hobby of mine.

What strain is stretching like that in the back under the xgs???sorry if asked before, checked too
looks good to me the way it is, both panels have tight lens angles......so it's just a "couple" photons hitting the sides anyways.
be safe grower

Thats a crop king Hash Plant back there...well a pair of 'em. Super leggy buggers. Nice flowers. Probably not going to run it again after this, tho. Kills my canopy.

I know, but I had to say something to bust your balls about it

There, a few of the party cups back in the middle there, giving a bit more separation.
I tied down those lanky HP's and moved them over to the left side, and added a fresh PB.

wowzas I am def getting my hands on some Plushberrry the next time I am looking at some TGA gear. The space bomb I have been growing for a minute does not yield shit. I just saw some buds off some clones I sold to a guy a few months back and they were airier than mine were, he is strictly hps grower and said he needed to get new bulbs just did not have the scratch. the buds were frosty as hell but just a calyx on a stem pretty much lol.

I've been pleased with plushberry. The pheno I've currently got gets coated with trichs, and has dense flowers. Handles being topped/trained/mainlined quite well. Stays relatively compact, if topped. The smells/tastes are pretty phenomenal. I was reading that its being discontinued, so I would get on it, if you can get it.

You're correct, Plushberry has been discontinued, and is already out of stock at most seedbanks. Hang onto that cut and make yourself some seeds with it. They could turn out to be quite valuable down the road.

Any thoughts as to why it was discontinued? You'd think with a killer strain like it is, subcool would keep it going.

I rememberd him saying that they were discontinuing all the strains that had the black cherry soda as the mom as sson as you mentioned it. Makes more sense to me than ousourcing his breeding to norstar, no offense to them they are prob great breeders just like to see things done in house is all. Still have to see if it has impact on how his seeds do, if they stay at the level they are fine, but i start having germ probs because oc outsourcing i am gonna be one unhappy camper!

me and the secret cup of growers have a plushberry male crossing with plushberry females (2 phenos). Plus many other strains. There should be a shitload of plushberry seeds end of the summer. Make your way to Cali by then.. We are going to cross 9lb hammer, mojos og, jilly, and quantum kush with many strains too. 9lb should make a nice frosty parent like space queen / bomb
sub has a whole crew of breeders. What he shows on weednerd I think is all the breeding he does himself. I was following norstar genetics on ig before I even knew they had anything to do with sub. They do very good work. Jinx proof and home grown natural wonders did most of the newer strains. Imo an improvement on tga quality.
What pheno is that? I'm just trying to figure mine out. Day 35 and one smells like cherries. The other 2 smell like feet.. I just want to know which pheno is which. I want the big yielder one. Alot of people are anxious for the pink pheno. I get asked about it all the time..

That looks awesome..

Sub said that making Plushberry and Ace of Spades took much longer than any other strain they make due to the Black Cherry Soda mother. He also mentioned that PB wasn't very medicinal compared to other strain that they could be making. So by dropping those two strains from production he's making room for more potent crosses.
Now that is what Sub is saying publically, but I think there is another underlying issue that led to this decision. Dioxide brought BCS into Sub's stable of mothers, and Sub and Dioxide are currently on the outs with one another. So Sub maybe dropping BCS as a way of getting rid of some old memories, too.
