yea man we should! Be nice to be able to dab it. I will have a ton more trim to make bubble hash with to, and some popcorn.

Thanks yktind!

When I press hash to dab, I put some between a folded peice of parchment and heat a spoon up with a torch for about 3 or 4 seconds, then press the hash with the back side of the spoon running it over the hash fast so it doesn't heat up the hash too much in one spot, it'll flatten out, tthen take the folded parchment and press it against a cool glass or just put in freezer for a couple seconds to cool it off. Not all will dab but give it a shot, and like doc said, if it doesn't dab and melt, rosin is the next step.

For dabable hash, fresh frozen runs are best, but dry works too. For big runs I like the 220 for work bag and 160 for crap bag and a 73u for the good dabs :) Hope this helps

The stuff we ran was from last years outdoor and it will not press and dab right. PapaPayne we can hit the old hash with the ever clear and make it in to shatter. Plus I need to clean the bags;)

My buddy did the 240v wiring for me yesterday and installed a hardwired timer to control up to 4 lights with out a melt down if a wall timer. Just need an Ac now and waiting for a 6' centrifugal fan and filter and wall mount fan to come in the mail. Man, I gotta repot the plants since there all in party cups and root bound to hell and back atm but I don't have enough room in the veg room for 3 gal pots.. Boo. I picked the best 12 plants for the flood table, I think 5 headbanger #1, 2 headbangers #2, 3 chemalope, 1 blt and 1 clue. The 10 best glue will go into the ebb buckets at the end of the month. Once I move the 12 flood table plants into flower I will have space for the glue plants to repot them

It is looking fantastic but I only have 2 and one needs to be a mom :) it's probably the best looking plant I have now. Most plants are deficient since I haven't repoted out of party cups in weeks, but the blt just grows like a beast none the less.

So here's the line up.

5 headbanger #1
1 headbanger #2
1 blt
1 gg4
2 clue
2 chemalope

All brand new strains so let's hope it doesn't turn into a hermie shit fest lol

I'll put them in flower as soon as I see new growth and deficiency clear up. Then I'll pick the best 1 of each strain for mother plants and toss the rest of the clone doubles to free up veg room space to uppot 10 glue to flower in the ebb system in 2 or 3 weeks or so. Soooo close to being back on track except all my plants look like they went through hell. I need to focus on getting the veg room healthy again (takes weeks off veg if things are running perfect, since they aren't I'm behind but oh well :p )

looking good so far man! I hear ya about the veg room fucking up progress. I been having issues with my clones wanting to die instead of root. Certainly not like cali, I always had 90% plus in cali in every method. The nice heat and humidity just gets them to do it.

Thanks man, and totally agree different climates can change everything. I just had my first 10%rh day in the veg room today lol. Got a speed controller and my wall mount fan in the mail today though so I should be able to get things in check in the flower room at least. $38 free shipping for a hydrofarm 16" wall mount fan on eBay, was super cheap and a great fan

I was going to move the 2 gallon pots to flower today but got kid napped by @Aeroknow for a fishing and off road adventure lol. Good times tho, tomorrow I'll get the plants moved under the mh and prepared for flower. Also gotta do the ducting and all home Depot had was this huge ass insulated duct, smallest insulated duct they had and it looks like r10000 lol, gonna be crazy putting this stuff up

I am glade you had someone to do your wiring alpha, and that fishing trip looks to have been hell of fun. My fishing poles are one of the few things I kept. I helped PapaPayne on his and hope I will be putting it back the way it was here soon if he gets to move.

For sure man, I don't know jack about electrical so super glad Aero hooked it up. I really need to get my fishing license soon but I need to get my cali id card, not sure if other California identification would work to get the license.

I'm moving soooooo slow today, went in the grow room to work on some things and only got the new exhaust and filter hung but still need to do the ducting. After the ducting is done I can move the plants to the table. Was hoping to get it done today but it's looking more like tomorrow at the pace in moving lol

I said fuck the pain and went back out and finished the 5x5 and hung the wall fan, holy damn, done for now and plants go in tomorrow :p I don't think I'll ever use insulated ducting again, or at lleast this type, wayyyyy to hard to work with

It's just so bulky, like 12-14" wide with a 6" thin plastic duct inside the insulation. With a helper it wouldn't be so bad, but I was lugging the 25' duct in one piece because I had to measure the length I needed (including extra length to allow light raising or lowering) so I had to hold the duct up, figure out the length needed, by moving one arm to the light hood and the guessing where it should be lol. Not a 1 man job really. Then it doesn't really fit well through a 6" duct in a tent, 8" ports would be easier. It's just super bulky to work with alone. I didn't realize it was going to be so thick since I bought it online and all the other insulated duct I've used was 1/2 the size like this in the pic. After install I'm happy as hell though, no leaks and the exhaust is like 3x better air flow and power than using cheapo duct . Next time I but ducting it won't be from home Depot though and it wont be r6, r6 is WAY to big and that's all home Depot has. Also duct under the insulation is like hhelium balloon material, worse than the cheap aluminum foil type ducting
