Thanks guys, the coolest thing about it is that I won it! :) And light if you need one visit FDD's page and PM him and see if he would be willing to sell you one.

Later I am going to buy one from him! He sent three people pipes for a contest just to better RIU. I am a big fan of Fdd on this site, seems like an honest trustworthy person that cares about RIU. If not just go get one from a smoke shop, they aren't that expensive, a little one is $25 or less.

I wont smoke alone out of that bitch! It has a big ass bowl and I don't want to waste weed. I am probably going to take one hit and be good, so I will have to take some of my harvest over to a friends house and smoke. My buddy just made me his provider, he has a card too, so now I can grow 30 plants legaly!!!!!! :) So when I harvest I am going to go get his ass fucked up!!! He smokes all the time so I will take one hit and just keep packing bowls for him and his wife "cancer patient" till they can't move cus they are so high! It is cool when you grow your own shit cus you can share it and it doesn't cost you much at all. Just let me know when you start your next grow and I will be there Crypt!

Haha, thats cool man. Turn your friends on bro. Dont forget about your real life bro, I'm sure he will want sample the good as well. Let him hit a blunt till he's good a baked, then break out the hampster and let him try and figure out what end he should stick in his mouth lol. I smoke NL a long time ago and it the only quality weed I've ever smoked. That stuff is some good stuff.

I'm already planning my second grow, i will be expanding my cfls for four pants. Gonna grow the WW and AK together. cant wait.

What are you growing? shame you cant, or your clients dont want those Bubbas, they look great, and it would be nice to get three week jump on the next grow. Keep me informed bro.

Hey Crypt remember that toy we were talking about the Eyeclopse? Ha ha I just got mine from ebay, it is the one that can take pictures. It is a lil hard to focus and get good pictures but I would recomend one big time! :) Check out my pic's, I only paid $28.00 for this one on ebay. all the trichs look clear so it is still a lil bit before it is done!

Those pics are way sweet man! Which one did you get? the one that works on the TV or computer? What mag did you use to take those pics? You post some of 100x 200x and 400x (if you have that option). Very cool toy indeed. I'd like to get one but money is tight so not sure if I will have one this grow or not, but someday I will.

They were all on 100x mag, the 200 is a little hard to focus on. And I got the one takes pics and works on the computer. Just keep an eye on ebay and you might find a good deal! The thing is fun, when I am not using it the kids are running around the house looking at shit!

Thanks guys, I am still learning how to focus that thing. 100x mag is all you need on that toy but I wanted the one that could take pic's. You can get a cheaper one that plugs into the TV but I didn't want to be dragging my plants into my living room! :) But all in all I am happy with that toy/growing tool. It is probably the most important tool I have bought so far for my grow. I will be able to see the exact time my plants are done.

Not a bad deal if you can find one for thirty bucks on ebay. That was only about 15$ bucks more the cheapy radio shack scope. I like the cyclops b/c you can check the actual buds w/out tearing off leaf. Pluse buds mature slower than leaves, so the reading much more acurate. And buds mature at different time too, so you harvest each bud at optimum time if you wanted to (althought that souonds like a lot of work lol).

You and people like you are the reason we are on this site! :) I hope you can learn from my fuckups and to be honest with ya I hope you get twice as much as I do. Just get good soil/nutes and water and you should do fine. Always check your PH. GL on your grow bro and if you have any questions PM me and I will try my best to help ya out.

You can also buy the one you hook up to your tv for $30 all day long brand new. But 200x mag is a little too much, I will be practicing on the 200. 100 is optimal, I just can't be moving my plants into the house on the weekends and stuff. I am medical and legal but I don't want the kids knowing about it and I think by law they can't be around it. So maybe get the cheaper one that can't take pictures and you can just have them on your TV.

Ok guys I decided to try my hand at LST with my bubbas that are already showing fem, I was reading up on it and they were saying start when the plant has 3-4 nodes, well mine were around 6 so I got a late start but they bent over quite easily. Here are some before and after pic's so we will see how well this goes ;) The planters that they are in are almost as wide on the top as the 5 gal buckets I am going to trasplant them into so it shouldn't be much of a difference later when I trasplant them.

Awesome! I'm sure you'll be happy with the results..When I grew years ago under fluorescent a friend, who was more experienced, came over and after looking bent all my plants all different ways then dropped the light to right above them, it worked really well. I rescued a female that was outside and am experimenting with LST now.

On a different note, doing research I stumbled across something you may want to do with your leaves/trimmings. There's a way to extract the Trichs using cold water extraction (ice and water), check out you tube and search bubble hash or bubble bags. I can't say how good it works but it sparked my curiosity. I will definitely check more into it when the time comes. Thanks again and happy growing!

Good job on the LST. I know thats a scary thing to do for the first time b/c you cant but feel your wrecking/killing your plant. But have faith, the leaves will correct themselves and all will be good.
