Myco...I went back and looked at the Blue OG. I will get a picture up soon. Mine is a cool plant. Healthy and strong. No worries yet. I did see a spot or two in my early vege area. They are all strong and healthy. I have not given them anything but some very light tea designed for early seedlings. After reading Myco's post earlier about the G.O. Cal mag+ I dropped a tiny amount into the vegan tea I just feed them to day. The tea I made and posted the other day on my thread was a vegan tea. This was my first ever. Thanks Myco for reminding me of CalMag+.
Your pictures speak for themselves. Very nice. I am loving them. Slam dunk.

I don't have any pics yet, but I do have some good news though. I just checked on my package from Herbies, and it actually got through Chi town. It went through customs last night and is moving forward. It seems to have had a little vacation in Chicago having been there for a couple days, but all seems fine, and like I said it's moving now. What a friggin relief I tell you, with everything going on with customs snagging about everything coming their way I was really sweating it. I'll let you guys know what show's up, and in what condition I guess, but I think I might be in the clear for now. Woooooooo! I have to say Herbies is everything you could want in a company good prices, great customer service, and the understanding that you should get what you order or get a refund. Customer for life! I just don't think Attitude Seeds would have worked with me like they did, but I don't know that for sure, what I do know is why go any where else when you get treated like this at Herbies, you know. I just wanted to let everyone know how things were going, and I thing they're going great. Now I need to go talk to my buddy who sent me a care package because he and I thought my seeds weren't coming. Oh boy it's always something I tell you. Peace out .

This oil is so much better if you simply cure it. I really think it's more like aging to be honest, but I think it adds to it more of a refined taste so to speak. I'm sure at a point it will start to lose potency from oxidation and such, but it's no where near that point yet. I would like to thank Mad Hamish for coming in, and throwing around enough oil info to help out even the idiot B.H.O. attemptee. I've seen "Run from the Cure" before, but I must have been blasted because I forgot so much of it, thanks for sharing that Hamish, great info bro! It's a damn shame big pharma, and our government couldn't care less about our health, and couldn't be greedier as far as profits are concerned in the health care game. It is a game folks, never doubt that for a minute. They'll keep you healthy enough to bleed you and your insurance dry, and after you can't have another procedure or your to eaten up by cancer or whatever too bad for another trial medication, you here this "Well there's nothing more we can do for you" and then they offer you all the opiates you could choke a horse with "To keep you comfortable". It's a game, it's a scam, and it's just damn sad folks! I know first hand that revolving door of B.S. and i'm telling you now once you get caught up in it you lose sight of any hope, and it's hard as nails to get out. I couldn't be healthier and happier now that I got more serious as cannabis as a medicine, and also stepped up my grow game, and got myself the meds I deserve. If you're not dieing don't take western medicine, and if you're dieing you sure as hell don't want to take western medicine. LMAO! That's probably why you're dieing in the first place! I've decided to start taking oil by capsule once every 2 days. Since I've no access to a lab and cannot test these capsules for potency or any kind of cannabanoid profiles, the best I can do is know the strength of the plants I'm using by either medicating with it or by knowing the profile by it being tested by the breeder. I know that only gets me so close, but it will have to do for now. I have empty gel caps I got from a health foods store, and am weighing out each capsule fill on a pretty nice digi scale. I've made an appointment with my primary care physician and am going to have a simple check-up of my blood pressure weight and such, maybe a little blood work if I can talk him into it. I would like to see how my overall health improves if any, and think he will be game as he is the one that said hey go nuts with it if it helps you any, at this point what do you have to lose. He's a very nice, and very down to earth practical physician. In a month or so we'll see if there are any results to be seen, or if I at least feel better in general. I thought I would keep a diary of sorts of what I eat, and how much I sleep as well as that can be troublesome at times for me. I know this isn't the most scientific of studies, but it's just me with an idea folks, no doctors or scientists participating. I just thought some people might be interested in the results if I come up with any. So there it is people my little idea for oil, and a cure. I'm also trying a little on a nasty old scar i have on my back from a surgery and see what it can do. I've had it for a while, and doubt much will happen, but we'll see. Have a great day everyone, it's time for my walk. Peace and Love.

It would be great if someone would invent an affordable home lab kit for testing your crop thc levels. That would be awesome. Hope your check up comes back with a big thumbs up!

I am glad to hear of the packing getting through Chicago. I starting to hate Chicago since all of this began. I can hear myself telling my father in law while watching a Bears game this fall, "yeah I hate the damn Bears because all my friends beans keep getting snagged there".

EXCELLENT news about the parcel! Like I said, those beans deserve your garden bro. They're going to get a lot of love :) I just got a very expensive clone with no name yesterday myself, it tastes like grape bubblegum and kicks like a mule. Going to keep her going for a good time before actually running but I had to grab a good opportunity when it was handed my way :)
You know you're having fun with your hobby when you start thinking about how you can make more spare change to nurture it with lol... And you never quite see such a thing as 'excess' only 'upgrade time'. Muahahahahaha.

I got in my tent and took some pics. I think you'll agree with me that the Blue O.G., and especially the Sour Blueberry are some frosty girls. I'll start with the Blue O.G. as it seems it's the more popular strain or maybe more were just given out as freebies IDK. Either way I bought a 5 pack of fems, and ended up getting one for free as well. I like the strain very vigorous, and great structure to her too. A little slow in the start, but could be the pheno, and she likes her Mg too. Overall very nice though, and she seems to like my tent as the thing is everywhere. I took some shots of some flowers on her a top, and also a lower node flower.
DSCF0242.jpgDSCF0243.jpg

She's coming along nicely and as you can tell already frosting up some. I'm really happy with her, and as you can see from the pic she had a slight cal/mag thing that started, but I nipped it in the bud I hope. Very nice I think.
DSCF0241.jpgDSCF0247.jpg

These are my Sour Blueberry, maybe a less known strain, but definitely a nice one. She has nice trich production, and some fat flowers as well. Nice chunky stalk at the bottom, and chunky, crusty flowers up top. She's quite impressive with her looks, and appearance, and her scent is really nice already with alot of complexity to it. It's definitely a nice strain, and would recommend picking some seeds up if you get the chance. I still have 2 seeds left of her, and look forward to popping some more some time. I have quite a collection of genetics coming to me from Herbies, and my seed savior who insisted I keep his package after I told him my beans got through customs. You should see the list this guy sent me everything from breeders boutique genetics like Sour Cherry and Engineers Dream to stuff like MTG Prezidential Kush 1.2 and some Gage Green gear as well. Miss Colombia, and O.B. RIPPER from Gage Green are superb cannabis and will be treasured for a long time. I wish I could explain how much this means to me guys, that plus the genetics I'm getting from Herbies like G-13 x Skunk#1, and Afghani Skunk, and also Sugar Haze. I picked up Lemon Kush from Female Seeds, and Lemon Thai Kush from H.S.O. for the terpene limonene hoping it's in both abundantly for some good pain relief. I've heard and read some about limonene and am excited to start to try and play with it some, and of course keep reading on it. I really wish there was a way to test our crops cheaply, and without risk of getting in trouble trying to provide ourselves with a decent medicine. I'm excited about all the future possibilities of the strains coming my way. Oh my strain angel also sent me SleeSkunk as well from DNA genetics the Sleestack x Skunk#1, the plant they call "probably the worlds best hash making strain". You guys know I love my Skunks so I'm pretty excited about that one too. So here are a couple of pics of the tent from an hour ago I guess.
DSCF0248.jpgDSCF0249.jpgDSCF0250.jpgDSCF0251.jpgDSCF0253.jpgDSCF0254.jpg

So here are the final pics of the last member of the three stooges, or the original three. I wanted to get a couple of shots of her from a different angle than usual. I've been complaining about how she's not that frosty, and I really mean that her leafs never really frosted up like I would have liked. Her flowers are plenty frosty as you can see, but it never really came out on the leafs much. Overall she's a nice strain I think, and has alot of potential. I think I was unlucky with a less frosty pheno, and high temps as well, so less colorful in the end. I have 5 more seeds, but they're kind of old, and only 1 of the 5 popped in the first place, I was just luckily blessed with a girl. The last 2 pics are of the Blue O.G., and the Sour Blueberry in the back. Have a great weekend everyone, go enjoy a plant even, if it's not cannabis. Peace and Love.

So here's today's update folks. The ladies are coming along great, without many complaints really. I gave the Blue O.G. a mega dose of Mg yesterday, and some food as well. I watered the Sour blueberry too, and gave her some food and molasses. I'll be pulling the Menage a Trois today, and giving her the chop. I'll also be replacing her with my Green Poison finally now that the MaT is gone and I won't feel like I'm crowding them any. I'll be happy to have the sour Blueberry, and Blue O.G. out of there and finished up, as they're kind of messing things up for now. I've been smoking some oil, and some flowers as well this morning, and am so high. I love the elevating effect of the Skunk#1, and the oils from it, as they're so lovely, and smoke nice. The flavors are just amazing, I really love it. Ok, to the pics I guess.
7-27 Blue O.G. frosty!.jpg7-27 Sour Blueberry smallest cola.jpgDSCF0261.jpg

These are the Blue O.G., Sour Blueberry, and the absolute last pic of the Menage a Trois alive you'll see.(I feel like that's the start of a ransom note) The rest of the pics are just a mash of the B.O.G., and the S.Bb. They're both frosting up really nice, and looking better after the fight with the Mg def. Distilled, and R.O. water can be a pain in the @$$ I think. As long as you have good tap water and get the chlorine out, and have good ph, and ppm use it. That just how I feel about it. If you do use the other remember your cal/mag people, believe me. Alot of the best organic soil mixes seem to have this need, but not all I think. I like to use it regardless now as i can see alot of benefit from it either way. Anyways, I'll let you check out the rest of the pics and get on with your weekend.
DSCF0255.jpgDSCF0256.jpgDSCF0257.jpgDSCF0258.jpgDSCF0259.jpgDSCF0262.jpgDSCF0266.jpg Make sure you take care of your friends cause your friends will take care of you when you need it if they are a true friend. I say this because my care package from my seed savior arrived today, and they gave me 50 seeds mixed of 18 different strains some fem, and others reg. I also checked on my order from Herbies this morning, and it has reached my local big post office hub, and will probably be at their destination on Monday! What a relief to have a small reserve of some super DANK seeds people. I'll be taking what I don't need, and putting them in a container I found that you can pump out the air of. I like to package them all individually by strain(of course) and then put in rice from the oven or a dehumidifier, and some oxygen absorber thingies from your pharmacy meds. Then pop them in the fridge for a better day. I'll be getting over 50 seeds from Herbies, a mix of fems, and regs as well just how I like em. Now that i have the space I'll be running alot more regs, but I'll have the fems as well to keep me in the fast meds, not autos. Not that i think there's anything wrong with them, they're just not my cup o' tea is all. I'll have a bean update when I get them all together, but until then the flower pics will have to do I guess. Have a great weekend everyone. Peace and Love.

I love the pictures. Enjoy your new strains bro. Sounds like you have some nice genetics. I love your pictures. Awesome. They really are awesome. I am spending time this weekend figuring mine out. I said the hell with it and am sitting down and doing it. I need to now that Myco has taken the bar to a whole new level. I like the larger pictures too. Are those the large case jpgs? How do like that description? I too am baked bro.

You really do have it done to a science. Your grows are impressive in every way. Great pictures, words, and growing. I am very happy to watch your grows. i look forward to it so I can learn something. I have a question fro you. In the second picture from the top in the post above on the left I see the Blue OG looking fine. Really nice. I see on the bigger fans leaves a lighter green on the innner 2/3 of the leaf and the outer edges are darker green. We spoke about this earlier in my thread. That is what I am talking about. Is it just the plant? The Engineers' dream is a purple type. What do you think? Talk to you soo. I am going to go to subway to see if they can sell me some hash like Pros gets there. ;-)

So I thought I would give a daily update of sorts. I got a Xplant done today, got a plant trimmed up today, and also made some more oil. I got a crap ton of other stuff done too, but I think what I wrote was what made me feel the most accomplished. I'm really excited about the oil I'm making now, and think my growing skills in this area are the most exciting thing I have going on. I know that might sound sad to some, but I think it's cool. I was really meticulous about this run, and I think it shows by my results. Again it was just a small run of first some trim, and then some flowers. I guess I should back up to the beginning of the day. First off, I Xplanted my Iced Grapefruit from in veg to a 3ish gallon container. She looks really nice, with a really cool structure to her.
DSCF0281.jpgDSCF0284.jpgDSCF0283.jpg

This Iced Grapefruit will have a proper veg time, and also properly worked into a bush of sorts. The couple of bent leafs you see are because I had her kind of tucked somewhere for a couple of minutes to move things around other than that she's looking great. Very nice strain I think, and quite frosty and rich with great scents to her. I dare say that this one will blow the other away if just in finished weight. Next in Myco's day I had some oil to make. So I readied my tube, got my supplies, and went to work.
DSCF0285.jpgDSCF0288.jpgDSCF0287.jpgB.T.W. the #2 tip couldn't fit better! No back spray at all!

These are the simple tools I use folks. Nothing special or fancy, but it's all I need on this end. I still have yet to acquire a new vac chamber, but am certain that this batch will be as good as the last, and it didn't get purged either. I plan on picking up a new chamber hopefully this weekend off of e-bay. I ordered some more butane today, but the place didn't have any V.C.'s so I didn't want to mess with it at the time as I was busy, but I'll get around to it tonight or tom. Anyways, blast one was alot of really nice trim, but it was trim so it came out like this.
DSCF0294.jpgDSCF0302.jpg

Nice texture, and color as well I have to say. I'm happy with that. The second blast was just flowers, and they were cut, placed in the tube, and then agitated with a cut piece of clothes hanger that I bent and kind of worked in a shape as to work the material in the tube, and hopefully loosen some of the trichomes that are in it.
DSCF0293.jpgDSCF0296.jpgDSCF0297.jpgDSCF0300.jpg

So this is what came out. I'm sorry about the pics not being the best, but I've been a little shaky all day so please bare with me. I'll get more into the oil while it gasses off more, but for now, more on my day. Next I got my Menage a Trois trimmed up, and layed out for a couple of pics for you guys. She turned out alot more frosty than first thought, and the smell of chopping on this girl was out of this world, just super sweet and fruity, and way dank. I was really surprised with how strong the smell was when she was being trimmed up, just beautiful.
DSCF0303.jpgDSCF0304.jpgDSCF0309.jpgDSCF0310.jpgDSCF0311.jpgDSCF0312.jpgDSCF0313.jpg

So these are the Menage a Trois flowers fresh after their trim. I'm really pleased with the way they came out, and what nice colors they have. I just can't say enough about the smell they have, it's so sweet. The density is really nice too, and the overall size isn't bad with the flower by the lighter in the pic was average size with I'd say 5-6 being quite bigger. It has a slightly spongy exterior, but the middle is just extremely dense and tight. I think these will take a while to dry out, and cure up correctly, but it will so be worth it when that smell comes back, and I get to taste whatever it is that it's suppose to taste like. The last couple of pics are just some I snapped real quick before the light turned out to show you the new addition to the tent.
DSCF0289.jpgDSCF0290.jpgDSCF0291.jpg

Here is the Green Poison. The newest addition to my flower tent. I think she'll fit in nicely, with the Blue O.G., and Sour Blueberry. So that's kind of a day in Myco's life people. I hope you like the chronicle, and enjoyed the pics along the way. Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone. Peace and Love.

LOL Myco, you think the oil processing has got you fascinated, wait till we start talking getting the pure tryptamines out of your psilocybes :)

Working with processes is an intensely relaxing and rewarding past time, no sadness in getting really into the oil making and refining your tek at all!!! Processing makes you really feel a PART of something. It's quick and alive, and as growers it offers us an opportunity to see something happen right in front of our eyes instead of waiting it out over a few days.

You, Sir are a true scientist when it comes to these things. You do it simply because it's FUCKING AWESOME. Can't ask for a more pure pursuit than that!

I'd like to point something out this morning. Everyone knows I was quasi complaining of the lack of frost on the Menage a Trois, or at least the lack of abundant trichs on the leafs. I smoked the scissor hash this morning from the MaT, and wow is this girl potent, and tasty as all get out. IDK if you've ever had raw opium, but is has alot of the same flavors as that, but very sweet and floral, and not just all metallicy. It almost has the same strength as opium as well people, a real kick in the head. It's really well balanced though between mind and body, but it definitely has the heavy eye lid thing going on. Calming, yet don't feel tired or down, just happy, and relaxed. I guess the best way to describe it is, completely content! The flowers on this girl are pretty massive too. They are just swollen, and completely dank with a sweet smell! I know alot of strains lose quite a bit of their scent drying, but I can't see that happening with this strain. She didn't have such a strong scent before the cut in the tent, but it'll knock you down now, or have you running for your share. Usually the smell dies over night to some extent, but when I opened the door to where they're drying this morning, I was re-thinking not having a filter running in there. It was probably half the tops of the Skunk#1, but I'm sure I'll have a 1/3 more dried weight or up from that. I really wish I had more than just 5 more old beans of this strain. Oh well, what I'll be growing in the near future will take all the regret right out of that. I checked on my Herbies order, and it's been delivered! The oil from yesterday has been sitting in a pretty controlled 77-82ish degrees. I'm trying to get as much butane as I possibly can out of it, and get the pure stuff. The amber color already is quite impressive, and is telling me I'm on to something. It's come out really clear this time like last, but it was almost immediately solid, and dense when I was scraping it in the pan even though it was on a griddle at about 150 degrees or maybe a touch higher. It was almost like scraping out a melted cough drop, and it became stiff as soon as it cooled off or before it seems. I looked at it this morning, and was tapping it with metal tweezers to the sound of ping, ping, ping. Very solid, and really dense. This was blasted from the Iced Grapefruit, and I haven't tried this variety before except for the tiny sample that I had to cut from it when she was flowering. I'm pretty stoked to get to try some out today, and see what she has to offer. I'll post a brief description later after the sample. I really wanted to start a grow thread because most people leave out a finished flower, and smoke report. I thought I would try and do a decent follow up as well after maybe a week or two's cure, and let you guys know what I really got. i'm not posting a final weight or any of that crap, just some nice pics of some short cured flowers, and an honest opinion of what I think about them. maybe a little about any extracts or concentrates made, and also a description of them as well. I'll get one up of the Skunk#1, and the following strains to let you guys know the honest dope on my dope. I hate calling it that! Anyways take er easy folks, and enjoy the rest of your weekend. Peace and Love.

:clap: Damn bro. You are all over that shit. Every facet. What do you say when you see such excellence? I say thank you for setting the bar so high for all of us to aspire to. Those were some great posts. That belongs in a damn magazine. Thank you for sharing all of this with us. I mean that. You have my full on respect for life.

So here it is, the report for this morning. It seems the girls had a nice relaxing night, and have woken up happy. Every morning they just get danker, and more beautiful. It seems the Green Poison is right at home in the tent, and the other girls have made her feel right at home. I took a measurement of her yesterday so I can see exactly how much she stretches out in the first 21 days. If I have her figured correctly she'll fill out the same as the Blue O.G. I would think. What a beautiful plant that is, nice structure, and smell to her, and all the resin you could want so far it seems. The Sour Blueberry is no slacker either with massive flowers formed, and filling in with an abundance of trichs. I have to say my flower tent is pretty sexy at the moment. I was really busy this weekend, and my R.A., and Fibro are really kicking my butt hard! So I've been medicating with some oil, and flowers pretty heavily so sorry for any rambling or misspelling. On to the pictures.
DSCF0321.jpgDSCF0324.jpgDSCF0325.jpgDSCF0331.jpg

This is the Blue O.G. Quite the stunner, with alot going for her. Nice scent, and color to her, now that's she's recovering from her Mg problem. Also very trich heavy I think, and she has all the time in the world to fill out from here. Really pleased with her so far.
DSCF0326.jpgDSCF0327.jpgDSCF0332.jpgDSCF0323.jpg

Here is my Sour Blueberry. I would say she's a little bit ahead of the Blue O.G. still even thought she was flipped a couple of days or a week later. Just a great plant, sturdy, nice color, and very frosty so far too. She's alot like my Skunk#1 was, not a problem from her the whole grow as of yet. Easy to veg, and easy to flower, if she finishes quickly like I'm thinking she will, it'll be a tri-fecta. The reasons I'm thinking she's gonna finish quickly are, that for one she bulked up fast, and another is her pretty fast jump on the trichs. I know this could all mean nothing, but usually if a plant starts off super fast they'll finish that way too. There are real exceptions to this so like I said it's just a guess. I have a pretty good pic of the Blue O.G., and Sour Blueberry with tops right next to each other. Pretty neat to see the differences right next to one another like that.
DSCF0322.jpg The Sour Blueberry is the girl on the left, the Blue O.G. on the right. As you can see from the pic the blue O.G. has more sativa dominance in her, and the Sou Blueberry quite a bit more indica. Both are beautiful plants, and I think the Sour Blueberry will have been chopped up, and the Blue O.G. will still be flowering away in the tent.
DSCF0328.jpgDSCF0329.jpgDSCF0330.jpg

This is the Green Poison. Happy as a pig in slop, and readying herself for what's to come. I really think this is a nice plant, I have to give it to Sweet Seeds for making a good vegging plant so far, we'll see what she can do in flower now. I really never thought I would even pop this seed, but thought what the heck, couldn't hurt. I'm really glad I did now, and am embarassed to have ever thought she might be bunk, just because she's from a lesser known breeder. You never know until you grow folks.
DSCF0333.jpg One last group shot before I go. Lovely group of ladies if I do say so myself. Have a great day everyone. Peace out.

I put the song on while I read and typed this bro. Nice vibes. I love the Blue OG shots and the Sour Blueberry is really looking nice. It's funny how some people just pass on the lesser known breeders. I am all into looking into anything that may produce exceptional results. I have high hopes for the Green Poison. I love this listening and typing man. Nice perk. No pressure from here on out. ;-)
