What a great game. I knew Lackey was going to pitch lights out. Verlander is just the best. Period. I saw your Wolverines against Penn State this weekend. That was crazy too. Then Monday a one goal win for the Red Wings. Exciting stuff.

I was counting on a win out of either Scherzer or Verlander. Fister is very good, but he doesn't have the overpowering stuff that the other 3 have. He's more of a ground ball guy. The Tigers will need to put up some runs on Peavy. I'm thinking the Sox go up 3-1 today. That will be a tough road back if that's the case.

I still can't believe that the Tigers blew game 2. That one could cost them the series. Must have been an amazing day in Boston on Sunday with a come back win from the Patriots and the Red Sox!

It was a really cool day. I was hoping the B's would have come back on the Wings. I think the Tigers-Sox series is a complete toss up.

I think the winner of tonight's game wins the series. If Boston wins there is no way the Tigers will win 3 straight to take the series. If the Tigers win, it will be really tough for the Sox to win 2 out of 3 against Sanchez, Scherzer, and Verlander. The Tigers look like the better team on paper imo, but the Sox are way more clutch. The guys with the big sticks on the Tigers don't look hungry to me. Fielder is a joke. He looks like he'd rather be on a beach in the Caribbean with a drink in his hand. What a frustrating team to watch.

I have no batteries charged so I don't have pics yet, but Dream Beaver ladies just hit flower, day one, 6 days after flip. Out of the 5 I put to flower, I have 5 girls. Some of them I thought were boys at first, made these little 'balls' on the lower nodes. Most of those 'balls' have turned into leaves. Never seen that before. Pleasantly surprised, though.
Got 2 LVBK ladies awaiting pollen, second batch of 5 went into flowering room 2 days ago, I let the LVBK flower for a while first, hoping I get my boy in time lol...

That's funny what you said about Prince Fielder but you forgot to add the sandwich You know he don't skip no meals

Hey gang when I was trimming the buds it made my eyes water. The flowers seemed to put off some fumes is that Normal? It smells kinda sour and sharp. Best I can tell anyway with my loss of olfactory nerves. It's definitely not as pleasant as I remember fresh cannabis to smell. Is it normal and strain dependent.?

So what is everyones medium for planting young clones and seedlings, im struggling in that department.

Jeeez that sounds DANK. If it smells like ammonia that would be a problem but sour sharpness just sounds incredibly DANK.

yeah its normal. 2 of my 3 NL og phenos and the old school master kush I had causes my eyes to water to. I think it may have something to do with stronger potency and ratios of thc, cbd, cbg, cbn.

let us know if when first smoke after a little cure your mouth goes a little numb. Mine does from those same strains.

You got that onion bud aka bunion! Anyway, I mixed some brown rice fungi in my 6 week old cooking soil about a week ago. Now I have about 10 cubic feet of some sweet vinegary "summer's eve" smelling soil. Is this just from the brown rice getting decomposed? Can I plant in this yet? Sorry wrong thread.

I once tossed a Afghani that I thought was male as it put out little ball looking things.
Didn't toss the second plant when it did the same thing and it was female.

D'OH!

I am adding Rrog's Brokashi to my cooking mixes. Tell us about what your doing. How did you go about getting the brown rice fungi?

Weekly Update time Things are looking stellar. LVBK is getting close, the one pheno smells like strong black pepper and eucalyptus, with a lasting chemmy undertone. It's kinda like a face full of mace, except delicious. The other is like fruit and disinfectant LOL. Both are highly astringent smells. Incredibly dank. If the smoke is anything like the smell is indicating, the low yields be damned, I'm growing more.
Dream Beaver is really bloody kickass. Only a single topping at the third node, and they are growing into perfect little bushes. I only carried 3 of them to the good light, but I'll show you all 5 phenos. I like the stretchy one, she's elegant as fuk, I can see she's going to get leggy and give me some headaches. Like all the best girls do.
But my favourite is the one I am naming 'Milla' see if you can guess which one she is They are all the same identical green colour BTW. I only got it to come out right using the flash with one or two pics. Getter better at the photography slowly LOL.

Undercook the brown rice nice n firm like May 11 likes, let kewl to room temp, sprinkled some HF soil conditioner on top of rice, spray till moist like May 11, and set on top of my cooked soil in dark. Just takes 4-5 days until it's fungi caked. I mixed up the rice and IMOs for a couple more days, then the shit gets really thick like May 11. I top dressed first time I made, 2nd time I tried a tea with fish hydrolysate and alfalfa (very little molasses), this time I put it in my soil. Dirt really smells like May 11...I mean douche. JK May 11..it's cuz I like you. Got the brown rice idea from Rrog and the tea ingredients from Stow. Also check out Bryan McGrath's Korean Farming and IMO series on YouTube. He explains it much better than I.

Are you trying to isolate male microbes?

Looks great Hamish. Very healthy. DBP2 is Milla. Those flowers look really frosty. Mace? That will be some potent smoke. I love the updates. Keep them coming.

Yeah, I hear the male microbes are the bomb. Bokashi. Damn Red Wings fan.

Looking beautiful Hamish!
