Alright guys, thought id drop in and give a quick update on the carmelo girl about 1-2 weeks away from finish and also a quick review of the arizer solo I bought,

So I like the solo at number 6 heat temp its real nice vapor and tends to make me sleepy compared to the pax, however theres a few things I dont like and they are,

It came with two stems one bent and one straight, the bent stem is very loose and will fall out if i tip the vape over, and the other stem well its so thick that it wont even fit through the cap of the solo nevermind fit into the heating chamber!! ( See pic!) how that passed quality control when it wont even fit in the vape is beyond me!

I emailed the company I bought from and they comfirmed the other solos they have are the same the straight stem wont fit so they have emailed arizer and am waiting on word back from them, am sure its on them to send a stem that fits ffs!

other than that I am happy with the vape its real nice taste from the glass and theres very little to no cleaning required which is great after using the pax for over a year and having to clean it everyday religiously,

no other big news am starting a couple of seeds today for the next grow one big bud x northern lights in soil and one afghan kush x black domina in hydro, hoping the spring weather will be good for dwc not too cold and not too hot, ive more confidence with this calmag plus things are growing well so fingers crossed.

Ohh yeah if anyone wanted to know the jack herer is going down a treat! surprised at good body buzz along with nice head high, i normally dont get on well with sativas but this one is anti-anxiety and calm it dont send the heart jumping through your shirt! real real nice flavor too! love tasting it

Anyway have a good paddys day and stay safe everyone, dont get drunk and end up with fisty cuffs!

I have the solo as well and the pax. You just have to lick the end of the straight tube and wiggle it in it will fit trust me, I dropped my straight one and broke it. The bent does wiggle but just put put pressure on it with your finger while holding and taking a draw and it works just fine. That is why I use my solo at home and the pax when Im out and about.

Ha the sativa's make you paranoid, you just need to get use to them they can be a bit much at times especially if you get a good one.

The lady is looking mighty fine my friend.

Ok I just saw the picture of the straight tube, they fucked up on that straight tube, call them or email them the pic they have a warranty and will hook you up with a free correct one.

Ok just saw your post that you emailed them, they will hook you up my friend.

Ok my quick update. the new nute regiment was great for keeping the ppm's exactly where they needed to be using the floralicious but the roots would take in so much it burnt the shit out of most of the plants so we made another run to harborside and got 8 greencrack, 4 fire OG, and 3 skywalker OG and we are just going to use the simple lucas method which has worked great all along so no more experimenting, that is two runs that didn't make the cut, this third will damn it.

How are you tonight Jenksie?
Terrible what happened in Austin, maybe lucky you weren't down there this time.

 

[mdjenks]

No doubt, that guy must have been out of his head. He killed two people and injured something like 35 and 5 were in the intensive care unit and the guy is being charged with a double murder.

It is my hometown and I am usually in Austin for SXSW but it is huge and they shut down 3 streets downtown about 5 blocks worth on 5th, 6th, and 7th street. Its mob of around 20k people and over the entire festival its something like 1800 bands. Austin is called the music capitol of the world for a reason. You can't walk in anywhere almost with out a band playing, a coffee shop, a bar, of course venues, dj's spinning records in clothing stores its a great city one the greatest in the states.

but to answer your question I am doing good thanks for asking man.....how are you doing my friend?

I just read the guy that drove his vehicle into the crowd was an aspiring rapper that was suppose to play at a music venue that night. he killed a local lady on a moped, a guy from Amsterdam and today a girl in intensive care died from her injuries........very sad for those people and for the musician for his life is over now.

They estimated that 49,000 people attended this years SXSW festival and bands played at over 302 music venues.

I'm good thanks.
I remember you referencing the festival before and I knew it's your home.
It's very sad indeed, he was willing to do anything to get away, he stole a car and drove drunk, probably would have got a few years if he had stopped for the cops, he instead killed 3 so far and injured so many others throwing away his own life in the process.
He doesn't deserve mercy but the last state in the US where he would possibly get it is TX.

 

[mdjenks]

fr3d12 you are exactly right about texas they are very harsh towards violent criminals. I don't think he will get the death penalty because it was not a premeditated murder but you never know in texas. I hate to see foreigners come to visit the US on vacation and killed in such a senseless act.

The state above texas, oklahoma ( I have family there as well) an Australian kid came there to play baseball at the eastern college of oklahoma, UCO, and he was gun downed by some bored wanna be gangsters while he was jogging, I don't understand the mentality of people like that!

I remember that last year, those kids were itching to shoot somebody and it didn't matter who.

hope all u lads are keeping safe n allls growing lush. my girls started week 6 today and ive decided to keep them going a little longer then 8 weeks maybe 9 weeks seeing as the pistels were still long white n they still seemed to be packing weight but tbh ill give em one more feed (in 2 days) then just straight water till finish mights give the initial water to a little excess but by no means a heavy flush...ive come to this conclusion after tastin a members organic smoke that wasnt flushed, i know im using canna nutes but straight water for 2 weeks will defo leech most the crap out if not all.other news got some SAGE and sour, very VERY different tasting smoke, dont think ive tasted much like it b4 n coupled with a solidly consistent high its a welcome change. phone broke the last night n imma get myself a sony xperia z1 so ill be able to take some sweet pics with the 20.7mp cam but from the mag def leaf colour hasnt returned but all new growth is lush....out of all my girls the og kush has been the most disapointing, in veg she was a beast but as flower started followed by mag def she really didnt flourish but saying that ill get maybe 1.5oz from here

Guys, are these prices for real?!? I can get these back in the uk for a fraction of that, and loads of the others. Granted, I gotta spend 150 quid minimum, but still...

www.irishseedbank.com/advanced-seeds-jack-plant-5-feminised

I rate the Irish seed bank mind, stuff gets to you quick, and (maybe by mistake) I got an extra seed last order, maybe cos it was my 2nd order in 2 weeks?
Where's the best place for beans out here. I'm in the wild west.
.....and lumatek digi's starting at e190 in a certain grow shop? Fuck me, i'd rather deal with the jokers on adverts for fucksake!

I'd say the price is accurate, have you compared the price with other sites? If you can wait a couple of weeks attitude will be having their monthly promo, if you spend about 50 quid you would get at least 6 free fem seeds, couresy of mdjenks here is a 10% discount code, 420. I got 13 freebies last week and bought another 13 for a total of 56 including p&p but that was their a birthday promo. That's not bad for a Lumatek if it's one of the dimmable ballasts.

 

[Growan]

Are the Jack Plant from Advanced really that good, or is it a bit of a 'elite' doggie's nuts kind of a thing?
As for the ballast, yeah it's digi, but since it's 'prices from' €190 I'm guessing a 400w. I got my maxibright 600w digi for about £110, so er, €135 ish? sure, not the same product, but a known brand and comparable in the market.
