quitter

glad things are on the upswing for you..at least when you decide to grow again,youll be ready with seeds you made!

lol! yeah, i was just counting them up, today i added 25 beans to my collection: 11 of the sugar punch, 5 chocolate rain, 6 space bomb and 3 sunshine daydream all bred with the unknown male.

we all know i'll be back growing in no time!

it is a lot of fun!!! i love watching them grow. if my head stash is found in this next round, i'll be honest--it'd be hard not to pop more!!

OK, I've jumped on the Sugar Punch bandwagon.

I ordered Sugar Punch fem seeds from Sannie's, germinated 3 (of 5), and now have 3 healthy plants in a SCROG setup.

I've grown 2 of Sannie's strains before (Herijuana, Jack Herer) and both lived up to the hype. I have confidence that Sugar Punch will as well.

I will definitely post pics tomorrow night.

From planting until now (8 inches tall), it's been about 6 weeks. Maybe 7. And they are beautiful plants.

I planted the seeds in Rapid Rooters. Then to a plastic quart pot. Then to a plastic gallon pot (currently). And to a 5-gallon Smart Pot next week, just as they're reaching the SCROG screen (which is 11 inches above the tops of the pots). I FIM'ed them all yesterday.

I really like Smart Pots.

I'm vegging under T5s. I'll be flowering under an Apache Tech AT600 LED in a 4x4 closet.

I'm using Dyna-Gro nutes (Pro-Tekt and Grow; no Bloom) in Sunshine Mix #4 + dolomite lime + course perlite. I'll probably use Liquid Karma as my only additive during flowering.

i did a smartpot comparison with my 2 s.p. and saw no significant difference..whats the pro for them in your opinion?
put both sugar punches and mad scientist cross into flower..got tired of waiting to smoke pot from seeds i bought months ago..ive got enough cloes of each to keep em going in rotation should i happen to find the best bud ever,which is what it will take for me to keep this strain in my garden...if not,ill have me a bunch of decent size clones in a couple months,hopefully,if they grow like the mom itll take that long..and i can throw them into flower then..
replanting huckleberry kush sunday,only one seed at a time..garden is full and getting denser by the day...ill keep postin pics of sugar punch as she buds out..

Here's a pic of my 3 females under T5 lighting. They're 7-8 weeks old, and 8 inches tall::

I think Smart Pots allow the roots to get more oxygen, although they do require more frequent watering. The wet/dry cycle is faster, and the quick-drying tendency helps avoid over-watering.

But I can't say for 100% sure that they produce any better overall result than with plastic pots.

Honestly, plastic pots are cheaper and easier to work with, so I'd love to know that they produce the same as with Smart Pots.

i got one in a 2gal s.p. and one in a 3 gal plastic pot..theres a slight difference in size,but not worth the extra money imo.plus im wondering how many reuses really can be achieved...ill have the end result in ten short weeks :-)

I'm on my 3rd usage of the same 3 smart pots, and every grow, it gets a bit tougher to clean the roots and dirt away.

That's what I've heard about those. Tough to clean and reuse. A guy in the Michigan section takes them up to the laundromat and throws them in to the washer for a cycle and claims that they come out pretty clean. Sounds like a pain in the balls to me, but might be something to consider

rory420420 · Jul 15, 2014

no soap residue will come near my roots!..plastic and a waterhose works for me atm.. :-)

heres a quick snap of a clone i took..put it in the best seat in the room..lets see what happens..

I have a 95' ZR1 Corvette that outruns Lambo's + never had a problem with it.
Wish I could say the same for my BMW 650!

Breeder's could easily mention the high ratio of males in the description, so you would know that 1pk of seeds isn't enough.

Test grows are a great way to determine these things, but most breeder's don't.

which lambos are you outrunning?
you got some work into it?
Off topic though, exhaust valves burning on those, intake manifold vacuum leaks...
zr1s are fun cars though, just kinda hard to hook up on.
I've driven a LOT of fast cars in my days, fastest being a worked STI, and the second fastest being a worked BMW M3.
Most horsepower? A 69 chevelle with a crate big block and a supercharger, but the thing would just spin, too much... close to a thousand horses...

rory420420 · Jul 15, 2014

im too high to drive cars like that..id forget to switch gears after running out of gas :-D

kindnug · Jul 15, 2014

Not so much the car as it was the driver, guy driving lambo wouldn't go over 200.
I've topped out @ 220 with that ZR1, only modifications are supercharger + slightly bigger radiator.

I honestly have no clue what the horsepower is with the mods, but the stock engine had ~500hp.

OGEvilgenius · Jul 15, 2014

Only a piddly supercharger?

ZR1's stock would do just under 200. 220 requires significantly more power. Nice ride, I love those ZR1's. I've only seen one but it sounded magnificent.

rory420420 · Jul 15, 2014

forgot to add i planted one lone huckleberry kush seed today..it should be cracked by sunday....hope its a female,i really want to smoke some of this...

kindnug · Jul 15, 2014

Speedometer reads 220 + it was maxed out.
Engines don't last long when you do too many modifications.

Supercharger is instant power, I hate turbo lag.
