We have had our wettest season at the start for a decade easy.
Plants are getting a battering but I know cos of the wind they withstand now they shuld be strong plants.
Ive had enough of the rain tho time for sun for a couple weeks after all we are meant to be the driest state
The weather has been wierd the last few years not sure if it’s global warming or just a normal long term cycle that will settle down but I’ve given up trying to figure it out. I’m just worried if we down get hit by a week or two of rain around Christmas/new year that we’ll get it around March again

1 HSO Sapphire OG and a Bubble Bomb just went into water. need to make sure my fem needs are sorted in the event that I have mostly boys from the regs I'm running outside. Trying to get through some of the freebies that have been sitting there for a long time

I think I'll get 1 lady out of the Skywalker x NLs, pretty sure both PK x Malawi are going to show me their nuts though - thats OK for the moment though, plenty more seeds to run to find some females to see how they smoke

They come in handy the fem seeds especially if you are doing smaller numbers or really large numbers. Out of the 42 seedlings I started with I think I’ll get 18 or 19 females which is fine for me because I’ve got the room but there’s no garauntee of getting that many females you could get unlucky and get 10 or even less. Fems should definitely have a place in everyone’s seed stash.

Gotta be happy with coming pretty close to 50/50 on your male to female ratio. just went out to water the ones outside and I'm pretty certain it'll be just the one female out of 4. All good, I reckon the SW x NL is going to be a bit of a beast from the structure and vigour. It took a heavy topping like a champ and by the look of the others there'll be some pollen to toss about. happy days

If I was planning on growing a few big-uns in the backyard I'd do the same. was very close to running 2 sharksbreath fems with the 2 I dropped this morning - I'll run both of those for the next indoor run I reckon - just thought I'd better churn through some of the older freebies first
Nothing wrong with that mate..i have done 3 fem freebies and all were nice in their own right...
Strawberry blue
Bubblegum
Pakistan valley kush

I've discovered that the floor to my cab is about 1cm or so thick. Which explains why it could hold my fat ass while I was taking out the exhaust fan. Guess I only need to reinforce the back wall. Which are only 3-4mm thick.

I'm probably going to negate part of the stealth side with the way I'm going to have the fan configured this time. But it's going to help with extracting any heat. The old configuration had the fan in that electronics compartment. But I felt like some of the heat was recirculating back into the main compartment. Rather than exhausting out the back.

I looked up that bathroom paint. It's a bit pricey. But I guess that's what you get with an anti-fungal,mold and bacteria resistant paint. Good idea though.20171116_132355.jpg

yeah some of the freebies are not bad. I didn't mind the blue OG I ran recently and I've got an original amnesia in the stash which will get a run soon. My bro has gown that and it was really nice smoke and quite a big yielder as well
Popped a couple blue og amongst the 10 I germinated 3 days ago.
First two to break soil was a super skunk and blueberry gum

Yeah that paint is more expensive than you'd think but if you get enough for 2 coats it'll last ages and you can wash it down. How do you find that timer with the 3 outlets on it? Ive seen them on ebay and they look really handy and cheap and was thinking of getting one. Does the job OK?

It's an alright timer once you've got it set up. But it's the getting used to setting each channels on and off times in (to the minute increments). Oh and don't bump any of the buttons after its set. You may just have to reprogram it again. Like I did about 4 times till I realized it was a button Id touched that caused the lack of response. Also the cable is super stiff. I'm considering lopping that one off and giving it a more flexible one.
