JRock's House

Started my perma clone collars yesterday. I do like them and they are heavy duty. I was just on ig and noticed they now cost like 3 dollars a piece!? I paid 1.79 with a 15 percent off code and it was like 65 bucks for 36. Now at 3$ a pop plus there 2 day shipping which took 5 days that's pretty fucking expensive for clone collars. I guess if they last 5 years it's worth it.

Yeah I remember butcher shops but I grew up right when that shit was kinda phasing out. Everyone is happy shoppung at walmart or jewel and u get whats packaged already. I have a small ass grocery store 2 blocks from my house now and it hads a nice little butcher shop corner. Small ass selection but it's all really good besides the italian sausage, they need to work on those lol. Out by my mom's up near Wisconsin there is some butchers I go to and it cost a bit but the quality is top notch. I also shop at a restaurant supply house in Wisconsin with grass fed items and buy bulk steaks and fish and beef. I try to stay outta Wisconsin besides that.

I work in a rubber factory, I could make those out of pure neoprene from the peices we throw away for about .50 each, I could get a die made to cut them from from raw materials and get them out around 1.50 each, they'd be black instead of green and wouldn't have the cool logo though
 
If its light bleaching then that explains it. I was leaning towards an N deficiency, you've ruled that out and its in flower anyway, no need to hit it with N. might be genetic? either way it all looks nice. Not trying to come off as a know it all because im not lol but if you do figure it out i'd like to know what fixed it or caused it. I used to get an issue around week 5-6 where the fan leaves would get these rusty looking spots, i later learned it could be cal mag deficient, hoping i can avoid it this time.

I still get those and have come to the same conclusion, I need to start using a call mag instead of just an epsom salts see if I can't clear it up

It might me cal mag. I only do .5 teaspoon per feeding. I never thought about that! I'm no pro either brother u don't come off rude or nothing imo I appreciate your input, it's always welcome round here!
Would you say up the cal mag or less call mag?

You should start doing that! I bet u could make a decent bit of cash making ur own collars. Especially if they can be reused and sterilized I'd be buying those.

I already make my own for my diy bubble cloner, that way I can make the plugs any size I need, I can do 9 small cuttings in a very small space that wayIMAG1279.jpg 20170107_120132.jpgi mean shit man, all they do is hold a stem at the right height, no need to be 3" diameter?

Not bad looking. Looks pretty Profesional I'd say. The rubber hose is a nice addition. Makes for easy insert and extracyion of the collars I'd bet, perma clone collars are a bitch to get in and out. If I'm tight on space I'll stick 2 clones in 1 collar. Then u can do double the clones in the same amount of space.

Gives it a nice rounded edge, I make my collars dish) ( <---side view so they are wider at the top and bottom, but narrow in the middle, the stem thickness makes it flat again so you don't need a super tight fit 1483809721775407106305.jpgand they still hold the tips just above the waterline where the bubbles can do their thing
 
@Bbcchance I noticed you have blue hands hopefuly that something you can correct.
Seriously though nice collars and the silicone sealant thing is cool as well.

I run organic soil and sometimes I get a few rust spots on the leaves as well.
Everything is in there to cover the nutritional bases, but might be too much of something, or the chlorine or high PH from my tap plays with them. But if only affects a few leaves and only on certain strains like the DOG.

I actually got the local Foods Co (Kroger) here to cut a tritip into steaks for me so I feel like a winner haha. Customer service has fallen and given way to rude employees and high prices.

My grandma would be disgusted if she saw the way the world is now.

I bet it could be chlorine from the tap as well maybe, I never thought of that. I usually try to let the water sit 24 hrs but sometimes that's not an option.

I try to let it sit out as well, but last week I found out the water jug I set out the night before to evap off the chlorine she uses on her windows in the morning before work and then refills it FFS

some of us need day jobs....220px-Blue_Man4_(SP)_2009_Brazil.JPG
 
I used to let my water sit out before use, but I stopped doing that. I do get some spotting possibly from it but doesnt seem to affect anything else. I was reading into it and alot of places are using chloramine now so it doesnt evaporate off quickly; it actually takes days to evap off vs chlorine which takes hours

Not that I believe what Govt agencies say, but my water district told me they have chlorine only and that our well water doesnt get a high dose of that either.
Yeah that Chloramine is nasty suff though
