7th week for this Miel de Regaliz (looking like 3-4 weeks) I could not imagine a room full of this long flowering floundering sativa...
:lol:
Almost half way there my friend. Smokin her while working on the project behind door number 1

Insulated, drywalled, muded, needs primed and painted, was thinking of doing rhino lining or similar on floor.

Day 56 Esosseeds.com Welchie (LVTK X Grape Sato [(grape stomper X G13 + sensi star X Buddas Dream)]
This smells like gasoline and berries. I think garage smells are my favorite. I spent a lot of time burning doobs and being a gearhead for a lot of my years. I am really looking forward to this.
Plant #1 (#2 has the 4 foot cola).

And then my seed order arrived...I am set for a while again. I will soak some Black Grape DumDum and C99 to start. The freebies first for a change!

The dynoberry bites cured to a wonderful blueberry/blackberry smoke with the faintest hint of skunk on the exhale through the nose. Sweet on the tongue inhale and exhale. Very indica effect and it works real good!!! I had a wonderful doob of it this morning with some Orangeberry Smoothie hash. Delicious!! stupifying!! what more can you ask for!.
And the dynoberry stays a good height. 2 in the bubble buckets may prove me wrong...we shall see.
Thanks Eso.....eosseeds.com is a good deal and the beans are top shelf !!!

looking good, are planning to use the whole space to flower, or are you going to break it up into multiple spaces? What are your plans for lighting?
A 3x3 tent for veg. As for lights I will be using cobs (22 cxb 3590 @~330W) arranged overhead and vertical for starters (look back in this thread to feb or march of this year for pics) I have another ~60W cob with red and uv suppliment and will continue to experiment using monos to tune spectrum. I have been lightly watching @Prawn Connery High Lights (seoul semiconductor phosphor coated uv), hoping he has hit one out of the park with the design. I have not ruled out getting a 315 CMH as well, need to see how everything operates, but 330 watts would put me at under 5W sq. ft. low by any standard.
I will have some racks in there for testing and small plants (12/12 from seed and such) but the objective is to grow a couple slightly larger plants than I have been for the stash and have a nice open area to do more pheno hunting and chucker testing.

I feel like Beetlejuice - say my name, and out I pop! :fire:

If you're thinking of adding a CMH, they blend nicely with LED and also give a nice UV boost. I've been helping a few local growers who wanted to keep their CMH lamps but expand their grows with something a bit more efficient and with less heat. We have a board that doesn't have any Seoul Semiconductor UV LEDs - just two different types of Nichia 2700K (CRI90 + CRI98 Optisolis) - and they give a nice little red boost while filling in the gaps in the CMH spectrum (which is already a nice spectrum for a HID). If you already have the COBs, adding a CMH wouldn't be a bad thing.

Here's the CMH spectrum on the left and blended with the LED on the right. This is a ratio of 2:1 (630W CMH, 300W LED) taken with my spectrometer.

These graphs are all about the peaks divided by the area under the curve, so there's still the same amount of UV in there, it's just the red output is higher in comparison (and the green drops off a bit).

Just a bit of spectrum porn for those interested in blends :bigjoint:

Are you able to get these to the US, last I saw it seemed cost prohibitive.

the CMH in 4k is also a fantastic VEG light. I used it out of necessity with a heat problem in my bloom room. Now that things are cooling off everything is back in balance and wow does that light veg really nice.

I use a 3 1/2 x 5 foot veg area with a 240 watt 4k board light usually and swapped it out to gain 10 inches of clearance( CMH in bloom swapped for board gained 10 inches because of placement and fixture height)

In the summer the 4k board will rule the veg room but for now that 315 is rocking it until April. Amazing growth and warmth for the seedlings.

How do you guys cure your seeds? I have my methods. What do you all like to do?

I dry mine for two weeks in about 55-60 rh. Refrigerator for at least two weeks. Store at 38°.

after that I’m probably poppin’.

After a 2 week hang dry,then cleaning..
I set the seeds on a paper plate, in the fridge (7-10 days) then they get packed up,put in the seed bin till they find a new home.

I.still aint smoked alot of these new day strains, like purple punch, idc how pretty it is, does it really pack the punch im looking for? So many generic ass effects in.todays time.. I really cant imagine GDP and larry og being that devastating? Ive smoked both Nd alot with same type of genetic make up.. Its good but not like damn this effect is strooong Nd super long lasting. What yall think of it, ppl whos smoked over 10 years?

I grew out a purple punch (HB) that punched you right in the head. It was the only seed i grew out but it can be pretty strong. The cake and LVTK variants and good old GG4 crossed with everything.
Fire all over the place.
The terps are out of this world and they are heavyweights. I love purple punch, purple cake, Dynoberry bites especially because they have that grape berry side of terps and wow are they good.

I did not get any females the time I ran it..so can not speak on the high..
When was first coming out,it definitely got the "weak" tag.

But what's weak to one person,may be strong for the next..
Mimosa is what I call a all day smoke,with good taste.

I do know they both have fast finishing nugs,so that could be why they seem weak(chopping to soon)

Brother, thats the feeling I had all along, I like real aggressive ass smoke. Im gonna start advertising as a true drug line breeder, all these damn florists! Lol... I mean damn is this not a time of abunch of instruction manual growers and a time when bag appeal trumps the EFFECT, a time of fuckery, a time of true confusion... Haha damn where is ppls head at... My goal is ..my bud gets u the.highest every time... People are asleep...
Idk about weak to one.strong to.another when.uve smoked as long as we have tho bro.. Glad I started growing outdoor with mexi.brick seeds at 13 haha I learned the PLANT, these yougins.... And they think they know it all! Lmao
1. Effect, 2. Potency.3. Hybrid vigour 4.terps 5. Bag appeal.
