Cannaventure seeds thread

Man all I can say after smoking the lvtk a few times now... fuck!

I smoked a fat bubbler last night, after smoking all day mind you, and I started getting that "holy shit I think i smoked too much" feeling.

Of course it passed and I soon packed another but I havent had a hitter like this in a bit. Its nice

So I took advantage of the 50% off offer from cannaventure. I bought the Arcata ghost. Well my package came in yesterday and to my pleasant surprise there was a pack of feminized cheap thrills in there as well. So I got 2 packs of excellent feminized seeds for 45$. Big thumbs up to cannaventure. Awesome.

He sent me replacements for LVTK and he sent me the Arcata Ghost freebies as well. I mean really who sends there top strains as freebies. Especially as replacements. With fem freebies. Someone who knows what their doing. And knows how to make and keep a customer. I will be a Cannaventure customer as long as he keeps making beans. I'd say it's safe to say that rusty and cannaventure are in the top 5 for breeders and strains. And at the rate hes going. He will be in that number 1 spot before too much longer. I know he surpassed GPS in heart beat with offerings and customer service. Atleast in my experience. Some people might not agree with me. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

have to admit, I've never heard of anyone taking a 5 year old complaint and making it right. On top of rockin out his new site and such. Rusty an ole grow soul mindset so to speak, testing, customer service, etc. You can tell he gets his hands dirty with his own gear, so to speak. Followed him from the old days on forums to current spot. He rocks hard. jmho

Ordered Albert Supertramp, Arcata Ghost, Electric Larry, and 91 Skunk D and Rusty included a pack of Lemon Crash as a freebie. Super happy with the Lemon Crash! All of them hit water today. I can only hope they turn out half as yummy as Slow Drawl, Capt C and Stiickygreen--you guys are killing it!

Rusty also included a hand written note with the order to thank me for a little pack of cookies included with payment. Seriously a solid dude.

And that Kratky Method sounds great--almost too good to be true! Sure looks great! Keep us updated @socaljoe! And, if you get a chance I would love to see a pic of your Kratky set up (specifically how the net cups fit in the reservoir). And your oil on the Greenpoint thread looks super tasty too!

 

[growslut]

@whytewidow what are your other top 5 breeders/strains?

My girlfriend told me I shouldn't buy 4 pack of seeds until I tried a few to see if they were good, and then I listed all the strains from CV that she has loved. She said go ahead and get em, lol

Thanks for the compliment. It was nerve wracking making the oil, I'd never attempted anything like that. But it turned out well in the end.

My setup for the Kratky totes is super simple. I'm using a Home Depot 27 gallon tote. All I've done is use a 3" hole saw to make holes in the lid, the 3" net cup fits perfectly in said hole.

Here's some pics.

 

[growslut]

Thanks for the pics! Looks fantastic! Convinced me into giving this a try and my back might be thanking you for years to come!! Going to check out those Jeb Gardner videos too

Can I ask how you started the plants? Seedlings or clones? And how are the younguns kept until the roots are big enough to bridge the air gap to the res?

Plants were started from seed, the plant pictured is the purple PRK from a previous pic, btw. I started the seeds in 1" rockwool cubes, once they sprouted up I put the rockwool cube into the net cup with hydroton, I keep it kinda wet with plain water until I see roots creeping through the hydroton. Once I see roots, it goes into the reservoir.

Initially there is no air gap between the roots and solution with Kratky, the reservoir gets filled so that the bottom half of the net cup is submerged. At this point there is sufficient dissolved oxygen in the water to sustain a small plant. As the plant drinks up nutrient solution and grows roots and shoots, the water level drops creating the air gap, as the water level drops the roots follow it down. At this point, my only concern is maintaining the air gap when I add nutrient solution, so I will only fill it up to about 2/3 full leaving roots out of solution to uptake oxygen.

One last thing...to combat algae, I add pond-zyme to the reservoir. You could also black out the lids to keep light out.

I hope that clarifies things. Let me know if you have any other questions...I'm no expert, but I've learned a lot as I go and think it's an interesting way to grow stuff.

Thanks so much, @socaljoe.

Explained expertly. I'm going to try this!

I have 5 Electric Larry and 4 Arcata Ghost's that broke ground yesterday so we will be neck and neck on those two.

Alright!

I only popped one of each for space reasons. But your last grow was phenomenal. Look forward to your smoke report!

I'm gonna hit her with both the goji and tangerine power males. I'll be hitting the black dogs with goji males as well. I'll make sure a couple care packs find their way to you amigo.

I'm hoping to find a nice mix of the goji and lvtk in the goji cross but I'm hoping to find a tk leaner in the tangerine cross since the tangerine male seems to let the mother shine though readily. That way if I find a tk leaner in my cross I can feel good trying to use CS and reverse her in the future.

Cheers man.

I don't check it. I set it at 5.8 when I started, haven't checked/adjusted it since. I know it sounds crazy, but I'm just rolling with it.

Ordered a pack of LA Affie Fems from Rusty based on your guys' excellent experience with his new site, and I have to add myself to that list. He even threw in a couple of Cheap Thrills freebie seeds with the order, and the Affie were the cheapest pack on the site - I am thoroughly impressed by the shipping time and customer care.

On another note, I finally got my hands on some Cannaventure gear to smoke. This is the best cut of CookieWreck around LA - this possible batch is probably the best I've seen it grown: tasted like licorice, nutmeg, and hash with great pain-relieving effects due to the CBD content.

Not in any particular order...
Jaws gear
Mass medical strains
Cannaventure
Sin city
Archive
In house
Bohdi
Dominion (Duke)
CSI

And theres really no way you can go wrong with any of the Cannaventure lines. I've seen some low yielding pure rasp kush phenos. But really other than that. I'm ordering the electric Larry, arcata skunk, lemon crash. To finish out the cannaventure luns that I want right at the moment.

I love those 27 gal totes best ones ive found. I use for everything, even made me a few aero cloners out of them and the smaller version, I think might be 18 gal, made an aero cloner ,still had 35 sites but had to use the 1 3/4 net cups and foam collars, found on ebay. I've noticed a couple different lids, even found 2 (just 2) with black lids at my local Dollar General. most peeps know but If anyone don't and need a small Rez these work awesome. Had to attach a skirt around the edge of my lid for the aerocloner so wouldn't leak and they hold so much solution they run cooler than most. Sorry for this off subject but had to brag on these.

My wife is going to knife me if I buy anymore seeds I need fukn help lol
