Ok guys I'll start you off with a hand full of pics from my vacation, and of my new bubbler. Then you'll get the plant pics so you can see what I came home too :).

Out the front window of my parents house was this huge cactus.


Heres some pretty views from the grand canyon





Colorado from 40,000 feet


Now my new bubbler. This was blown by James Lynch who is from New mexico and works in AZ. I love being able to get something locally made by a real artist. Its only the third piece in my glass collection that I know who made it.




This is an opal encased into the mouth piece. The wife says it sold her.


Ok now on to what you guys really wanted to see some plants!

Damn it so I just finally was able to log back in after that outage.....

I had my whole plant post set up, and ready to go, I hit post, and it times out. Try it agian, and it goes to the error screen, poof there goes my post. Sorry guys but I'll try it again in the morning. I spent a couple hours in the garden trimming moms up and taking clones, and its time to watch a show with the wife. I'll be around some tomorrow though after I hit the glass shop hopefully.

Sweet vac. pics bro, I'm gonna have to go see that in person one of these fine days..

I don't know about having a big cactus in my yard like at your parents house, stumbling into that sucker drunk or high at night could really suck...know what I mean...lol

Thanks guys, it was a decent trip. lol it seems the desert can be a dangerous place to get drunk or trip everything is pokey out there.

I spent about 6 hours at the glass shop today, had an awesome time. Got about 2 more hours on the torch. I finished a decent size marble I had started before my vacation, and I made my first smoking piece. We'll see how well it functions but I'll take it for a first one.

Plant pics will be coming tonight as along as the servers don't crash again. I'm about to put my daughter to bed then get on that.

OK so we'll start with some veg plants, and then the flower room. I'm gonna post the pics and then go back and label them just incase of an issue. Ok sorry in advance some are sideways.

Heres the main veg tray under the newish T5 which I'm loving!


In the middle you can see the Bluethai clones with a little weird growth from a slight reveg. In the back corner is the beastly UltraSour mom. And the rough looking cindy mom tucked to the left which is now gone...RIP.


Heres the lemon Thai kuch mom that more then doubled in size in the 9 days I was gone.


I wanna say this is the cheese clone, but can't read the tag or remember.....but I know I took a pic of the cheese so I think that's it lol.


Ok heres some flowering girls!
The room view from the doorway as soon as I walked in after the trip.


Room view from the opposite side.


Here is the blue OG I've been pretty impressed by. Its looking like its gonna be a good yielder, has a decent smell, decent resin production. I'm excited to see how it turns out cus its still growing fast. It looks noticeably larger now then when I took this picture already.




I believe this is a true power OG, sadly the clones from both of the TPOG plants both lacked in smell, maybe a cure will help. They have some nice resin on them so I'm sure they will still be some dank smoke. I'm getting kinda spoiled I think from having so much really bold flavored weed. When something isn't really stand out it kinda gets brushed aside.


This is the Dinachem, I really like the node spacing and bud shape on this plant. I'm hoping the resin production and some taste/smell improve as it gets closer to done.


Heres a nightmare OG mom, I trimmed the clones from the 2 phenos I got last night. One seems like it will be pretty stand out once its cured, the other never had much smell to it.


Here is the SCS galactic jack...not to be confused with the strain TGA just released by the same name but very different genetics. This girl has some gorgeous frost on it like most of the SCS gear I've grown, and a really distinctive funk I can't describe yet.


Here is one of the new white widows, I like the growth on this one the most. Its very frosty early, and has a sweet fruity funk to her. She is much more indica dominant then my last white widow so we'll see how she finishes.


Heres a little of what I harvested the other night.

This is a little tangerine power clone. I wish these plants hadn't been so hermie prone and had yeilded better, cus the smoke was very nice, and they smell super citrusy and delicious. I've got the moms of both tangerine powers flowering now, and have found about 4 bananas between them so far. I suppose there are prolly 4 more I couldn't see someplace, but they didn't pop them like crazy last time just a couple that I plucked. More SCS resin production from them though!


Heres one of the Sinmint cookies. This one was more blue power dom I think. The other pheno, which I didn't get a picture of I guess, was the cookie dom pheno. I trimmed it last night, and it completely smelled like sugar cookie dough it was kinda cool that it was so distinct. I kinda wish I had taken a cutting, but it didn't yield much so I'm not sweating it.


Here is a lovely little C99 all finished up. She got about 8.5 weeks cus we were out of town. Had that beautiful spicey Cindy smell as she was trimmed.


This is the Platinum Delight that I've been keeping from last summers testing project. This girl takes a good 9 weeks, and turns this color purple everytime so far. The smoke is intoxicating, thick and complex. I think it is really a nice balance between the GSC, and the bluepower flavors and smells.



This is the Nightmare OG clone that got trimmed last night and had the really nice smell. Very sweet, I would say berry smell.


Sorry it took so long. but at least you finally got a decent update on the garden ;). I also thought I'd share I just talked with Sin City seeds, and I am gonna be doing another run for them this year. Its gonna bump back my testing out my Sin-D99, but thats ok, I was excited to get to continue working with SCS. Its kinda funny that for the last year about 75% of my garden has been scs gear. I can't imagine exactly how the last year would have gone if I hadn't gone to the Cup and met them and got the bug. Man I wish I was gonna be able to go this year, but its not gonna happen without a miracle. Hope you guys are having a good ...thursday?...I honestly don't have a clue what day it is lol.

I'm gonna be messing around at the house today. I need it to stop being crappy outside so I can set up my raised garden bed. I wanted to do it last fall so the dirt had lots of time to cook, but now is better then never. I'm gonna get a load of topsoil, a bale of peatmoss, and a big bag of perlite. I am gonna have to lay some heavy gauge wire mesh on the ground, and around the garden as a low fence as we have a serious ground hog issue in my area. I'm gonna get a trap this year too. Anyway with any luck I hope to have that done in the next week, and I'm gonna get seeds started under my clone lights :).

Catch you guys later on!

Peace TC

"Like" :-) everything looks great man. I love plants that just turn purple. My Ak47 does that every time. Kind of like purple outside and streaky green purple inside.. MMMMM LOL

I need to find a good cut of white widow out here as I have never run that and its kind of a classic. I like variety but I also like to run strains more than once most of the time. I cant imagine what I would do with as much space as that man. :-)

I'm having 1.5 cannamels in my coffee right now... This is probably gonna be a short day at work....

lol thats got to be a huge coffee cup :), and prolly gonna have you feeling real good soon! I tried them in my coffee, and just eating them. I found like liked biting off a little piece and rounding it in my mouth and then swollowing them like pills. You definitely gotta try some white widow, I'm hoping this one is anywhere near as good as my last.

I'm really enjoying all the extra veg space I've got at this house. My flower room isn't really any bigger, still just the 1k and the 4x4 tray, and not really any room for another light. I do still have room in my veg room to set my other cfl light up and run an auto plant under it if I decide to though. Really I don't want to pull any more power at this point.

I would actually like to run less strains, and more of each plant. I enjoyed having a whole tray of the same strain. I'm working setting up a run of mostly LTK, and then one of mostly Blue thai. Beyond that I'm not sure exactly what will be on the menu, I do love variety too. I've mostly been running so many things trying to decide what I'm gonna run for a while again. I want atleast one strain that will be a good yielder, which might be this blue og, and then a couple I can rotate in 2-4 clones of at a time that are just awesome smoke. I obviously want to keep some killer connoisseur buds just for me and the wife.

WooHoo! FANTASTIC Update, Well worth the wait!

I would LOVE to grow MORE of the same Strain too, so I keep eliminating Strains so the Numbers work... but for every Strain I Cull, I Gain another! I realize I dont have to accept, and perpetuate NEW Strains as they come, but I REALLY dont want to Pass-Up on THE ONE! U-No, the One that will Take over the #1 Spot!

If the Tangerine Power is anything like the Tangerine Dream, I understand why you LOVE it!

Peace

Thanks man! The tangerine power is actually very similar to the powernap I had, but has more of an orange/ citrus smell. The powernap smelled alot like lemonade skittles. The tangerine power is more like an orange starburst :).

Never heard of PowerNap? Is that what happens after you Smoke or Eat it? Hehehe

Hehe some times :). Powernap is another Sin City cross, its whitenightmare x bluepower. Was good smoke, very tasty, and produced tons of resin. I've still got 3-4 of the seeds and I'll try running it again, but I am just finishing my last few clones of that now. It doesn't yield enough bud for me to run right now, and its just not my favorite of the new flavors, so it got cut. I've got 3 of them that are almost ready to come down, and I'll be surprised if I get over an oz from them. If I made oil with it all though I know it would yield around 20% which I consider pretty damn good.
