Station wagon full of weed balls out on the interstate again?
Haha no not the weed today, just the greenhouse minus the swamp cooler lol
How’s the move in coming along? Picked a spot for the greenhouse yet?
Was this directed towards me? I’ve been messing around on mobile and still trying to figure things out
Just been running loads, moving sux! Working today and tomorrow in Vegas then 4 days left to be out 🤦
Yes sir, curious what ur into growing or are growing
As of now, all I’ve grown is autos (which is how I ended up running across your thread) and to date have grown and harvested six of them, and have four more going right now (iced latte, cream mandarin, sweet cheese, and froot by the foot) that are only a couple inches tall at this point. Got them going in earth boxes in a 4x4 tent, with a cheap Chinese LED. Was hoping to upgrade soon, but rumor has it layoffs are going to be happening soon, so I’m going to hold off for now. Plan is to try my hand at some crosses/reversals and start stockpiling some seeds. I’d like to delve into photoperiods as well since I’ve already got some seeds sitting around. It’s all just for fun anyways! Here is a pick from my last grow. Wasn’t a huge yielder, but honestly I never got around to weighing it so not sure what I ended up with. Trichomes and cream, blue dream’matic, Mimosa, and critical orange punch.
That looks like a pretty sweet setup u got there buddy! Nice lineup of smoke too, sounds like we got the same taste of fruity/sweet/berries. Curious if ur gonna pick up some coffee terps with that iced latte. Ain’t nothing wrong with the cheapo Chinese lighting, I’ve got 10 total lights and don’t think I paid more than 50 each for em. Been a big fan of the quantum boards( got 2 100w in viparspectra for 50 each and a bloom plus 90w for 40 bucks. Spent a year sniping ebay auctions in the last 10 min of the listings and snagged some good deals. Holiday weekends like memorial day are best cuz everyone out drinking not paying attention to ebay listings haha, got one of my blurple philzons for 27 that way lol
I almost grew the blue dreammatic but seeds I got from seed supreme were a no go 🤷
Hopefully I can get u some beans of these mephisto crosses, doesn’t sound like u have ran or checked out any of their gear yet but they def set the bar high with potency and some of the better autos I’ve grown. Sure would like a few solid testers for what I’m bout to harvest.
What do u do for work? I’m a union man myself and know about layoffs all to well haha got today and tomorrow setting up for the pizza convention then I think I’m on lay off too lol
Honestly, I can’t even smoke because of my job, so I’m basically doing it just for funsies. I give it away to family members and friends. Well that’s not entirely true. My main drive was someone I know has parkinson’s, so once it went legal here THAT was the main motivation, but the growing itself is for fun.
As for work, I do inspections. Non union though, but I’m sure I’ll be able to find something else. Just used to getting drug tested several times a year with possibility of randoms. So I’ll enjoy some time off from that and partake in my endeavors
Also as far as tastes go, yeah, that’s pretty much what I lean towards with everything, so that’s why I picked the seeds I did. If no one likes the strains I grow, it’s no skin off my back, I know someone will want it.
For ebay, look into gixen.com it’s a sniper and works flawlessly. Set your shit and wait for the email saying you won. Been using it for longer than I can remember.
I think for lighting I’m going to try a DIY. I spent a couple hours reading through a thread that I of course can’t remember the guys name… I want to say MrSparlkes? Anyways, seems you can build something pretty great for pretty reasonable. I’ll link the thread tonight when I get to work and have nothing to do. It’s an interesting read.
I have not tried any of the mephisto stuff, but have heard nothing but good things about it. If you want to send seeds, they definitely won’t go to waste. I’ll also see what I have laying around you might like.
I’ve gotta hit the sack. I meant to go to bed hours ago and instead spent the time reading a Jamaican landrace preservation thread . Another great read by the way.
TTYL
You’ll like mephisto Ive grown a few very consistent and . Sucks about the job growmie the lay off possible and can’t smoke but good on you man. Growing for others has to be rewarding also gets you practice for when you are ready for personal stash! Good luck and welcome to the community.
Do they stand there & watch you? If not you can just get synthetic urine. It works just fine. Maybe buy some now before the anti-drug fascists ban it I’d still grow it for fun too, I get it
I’m glad you’re giving it to people in need though, that’s OG
@AzSeaindooin420
How’s the project coming along? Getting things set up? Today is the day you have to be out by right? Hope it’s all going well!
Yeah man, hope the move was smooooth.
If you look in the upper right corner of the post you will see an arrow with your avatar that means it is directed towards you or replied to you.
Yeah, I know. I eventually figured it out after a couple of dumb replies to people that weren’t talking to me
Those look great especially being autos…
Thanks! Ended up with (I think) Six or seven quart jars from it, which since I don’t smoke, could last me a lifetime . Given away probably an ounce and a half so far. Gotten great feed back on it so far, so it seems like I’m doing something right. Next round isn’t looking so promising. Froot by the foot I’m pretty sure is gonna take a shit, the Sweet Cheese is yellowing out pretty bad, and the Iced Latte has a silly non-symmetrical thing going on. Cream Mandarine is killing it though. Might just pull the other three and get something else going.
Still at it, got till Friday and now I’m to a point of running loads through the night
I’ve got a truck. Heading over
Get an air pump and give em a nice compost tea feeding, I can hook ya up with the revs recipes
Don’t threaten me with a good time
I’ll take any info offered!
