I received 2 new books today in the mail. They are "deluxe Marijuana Grower's Guide", and "Marijuana Grower's Insider's Guide", both are by Mel Frank.
Both are signed copies........................... he must have been smoking some good stuff.................. He got my first name wrong......LOL
If I had asked for the Autograph, I might have been pissed, but I just LOL and smoked me a few one-hits before diving into the contents.
Cheers,
P.S. I pulled a lower bud off the G13 Blueberry Gum, did a 1 min 15 sec microwave quick dry. I took 4 one-hits, laid down and got 5 hours of non-stop sleep (Thank you, thank you, and THANK YOU)

No no no. Bad Dan! No timming until it's time.
Get a small microscope at the head shop (not the 100x). You'll see a little blob of goo on the tips of hair. When those blobs transition from clear -> milky -> Amber. You are ready to chop. Don't be impatient.
When you chop, pull all of the water leaves (by hand) and hang it in a dark closet. I little fan at the bottom (not blowing directly on the plant) to move air would be perfect. Hang for 4-6 days. It the bud feels wet or soft at all, keep drying. Wait until it feels a little crunchy on the outside, then pull it down and trim it up proper. Then put the bud in a big glass mason jar for curing. You MUST BURP the jar every day. Two weeks of cure and you should have some primo smoke!
I know it sucks to wait. But you'll be thankful you did. The high and the quality of burn is much improved after a few good weeks in a jar! Often, homegrown smells a bit like hay so curing helps that out too.

I was planning on having a drying tent by now but, I haven't come up with the money yet.
Until then I've made a drying tote/box/tub........... I had 10 wall warts, a couple of 5v's, a couple of 9v's, and 6 12v's. I used one of the 12v wall warts to power a PC fan (striped a few wires, soldered a few wires, cut some holes, strung some wire, and wam, bam, thank you mam.....

How did you pay? I've always received at least 2 emails from them when I've ordered.

Bank Visa/debit card............ That's what I have used at 2 other seedbanks/breeders.
I was going to email them but, I didn't want to be the impatient new customer........

Depending on where they're sending the order to, I've seen orders in as quick as 4 days before. Give them a week or so before you start sending out emails.Bank Visa/debit card............ That's what I have used at 2 other seedbanks/breeders.

I went to their site and logged on to My Account and checked to make sure my email was correct............ and it was.
I noticed in one of the F&A section.......... They said to wait 28 days before emailing them............. ???
They'll probably be here before I know it

I received a package today from SBN (Seed Boutique)............. yippy....yay
Ordered Tuesday night on the 5th, it might have been Wednesday morning the 6th over there. They made it here today, Monday the 11th...................5 days, Nice job SBN!
They even sent me a freebie (10 seeds) from "Sam the Skunkman". The label says, Mixed Seeds x Haze/Skunk#1
Now I can add another seed bank to my list of places I've bought seeds from and actually received them...

. When they ship beans that fast and include freebies with every order, now you see why.Just out of curiosity, what did you order?

I had noticed that you use them and decided to give them a try for myself............Thanks, HB
I had been looking at Mandala seeds and ended up getting "8-miles high", and "Satori" from their lineup.
I was also looking at seeds from Serious, but wanted to see how SBN did with a smaller order before I spent a lot of cash with them.
I also put in an order with Sannies Shop Saturday for "Herijuana", and "New Blue Diesel". I got an email today saying "shipped", so the wait begins again....
P.S. The G13 Blueberry Gum turned out nice.................. There's something kool (lacking a better word) about smoking your own medical mj, and it working

Fyi, I was not impressed with my Mandala safari mix (freebie pack in my last order to SB). Hopefully you have better success.

Here's a link to the tub info and if you put in your zip code, it will give the price in your area

$11.38 in my neck of the woods and it says 36" x 24 1/2" on the web page

Mandala has such a nice website though
I was hoping you'd say, "those Mandala freebies I got..... were the bomb" Oh well, I'll just put them back for a rainy day.What would you suggest for a narcotic/pain/nerve night time smoke?
