Couple questions how big of a foot print will those do and also what did that package cost you?
I got to get into the 20 th century and get going with some led lights,the power company are the only ones profiting off me

I am in no way an LED expert like @Mr.Sparkle, but it’s in a 3 x 5 area. It will be on 48" metal frame. 16 gen2 EB strips and the XLG 240 driver was about 140. Shipping was 8.99 for 3 day from FedEx. I still need to get some wires, connectors and a potentiometer.
Hopefully all goes as planned.

So that’s about 16 watts per square foot (according to driver rating)?

Guess so. For last several years I ran a 6 bulb t5 for veg. Years ago I used an old blurple in veg, never impressed me though. Just want to try some of the strips in veg before I commit to a design for flower. Ideally I’d like to run a combo of LED’s and one of my 630 CMH in flower.

I’m pretty well sold on LED lights, personally. I bet the combo would be excellent, though.

Took down one of the Nigerian Space Probes from Bodhi yesterday. Went 72 days this time around after talking to @Barefrog. A good bit of swelling in the second to last week, but then it just stopped drinking. Has an overwhelming haze smell that dominated the room.
Also cut the two Princes x Vortex seeded females. Both have that rotten fruit nose to them, and the compact growth of cindy or Apollo. I used 2 male PV to try and keep the lines open. Was not trying to get bud this time, just seeds to do a large hunt through. Kind of wish I would have left a branch or 2 alone.
@Misolo313 here is the rest of the (Princess x Vortex) x Pre-98. I think I should have enough to dig through.
Happy Holidays

I had received these as testers from Bodhi, so I kept no males around. I kept 2 females around, but I have no plans as of now to use them in a cross. Sometimes I toss an extra clone in when I do seed runs though, I just don’t think I have any males coming up that would be a good pairing. Its so good in its pure form.

Just pulled down 2 testers of a cross I actually intended to make. its (Afgooey xWookie) x (I95 x Stardawg) F2. Only cracked 4 seeds to see what happens, and ended up with 2 females and 2 males. I topped 1 of the 2 females to see how it would respond, and both the topped and untopped plant impressed. They each carried over the sweet lavender and afgooey smell but with a hint of musk and gas from the father.

Holy coincidence batman. I’ve got two AK47 females going and one of them has that exact same heavy variegation and the same weird twist to the leaves. It never seemed to affect her growth rate tho. For the longest time I thought it was damage from the IPM, but it just never went away.
Gave the variegated female to @StevieG
What do they look like now, must be fairly close to harvest

I’m curious af to see how that one cures out 
& it sounds like a floral & feminine haze funk.
Do you distinguish feminine & masculine plants a la Bodhi? IMO there is ‘something to it’ just not sure what

Hey would you want to cross it to the God’s paintbrush? I have a few seeds five to be exact. Was thinking maybe seed increase and a cross to the space probe? What’s your thoughts on it?

Which country are you in @Zion ? The one NSP I kept needs to be shared. There were some random seeds in it.
The male could be one of the following:
Princess x Vortex
Sensi Star F3
AK47
Snow Lotus BX v1
If you feel like rolling the dice, let me know

Both of the jars from each plant are some of the stinkiest shit I have ever grown. Its like a sour version of Urkle with some gasoline fumes. Its outrageous. One of the 2 I found some nanners on the inside of some lower buds, so that clone was tossed. The other clone is getting moved up in the rotation real quick to see if this could be as great as I think it may be. Still haven’t given it a shot with the smoke test just yet.
The way I go about selecting plants I cant really explain. Like most of us, I suffer from a seed addiction, and feel the need to pop several different strains at once. Most of the males I have used are whatever the standout plant in the tray is throughout veg. I tend not to look at the labels of my plants while they are vegging so that I do not favor one or the other. There are male and female characteristics for sure. I always like to see a sturdy main stem that has good side branching. If it looks like Ill need to stake it up all the way through flower, I tend to toss it. Then the usual suspects, stem rub, rootball, and always seem to test em against pests. The last part is never intentional, just seems to happen.

The Ak’s or the Sensi Star? The SS are drying out and about to be deseeded. The AKs are very close, within the week they should get the chop.
I’ll have some AK47 crosses for you. Used the male on my Goji cut, Snow Lotus and GG4. Not a ton of seeds, but enough to get some back to you.

We’re you happy with the AK?
Did you happen to do a ak x ss, by any chance?
