I don’t think I’ve pointed it out in a picture yet, even though I talk about it regularly: Circled in blue is the Afghan leaning Vietnam Bomb, the other two VBs are the two plants holding spears in the back! :bear:🫨

I never had much luck with those peat pots. You use different sizes?

I do not. I think mine are the 3 inch bags, but they might be 4. They’re about a half pint.
I never used the peat pots myself, but I can see how they could be a pain.
I let the roots grow an inch or two out bottom of the bag and then they go to 1 gallon pots (SpringPots) and live there until transplant to 5 gallon Grassroots Living Soil Pots for their final home.
I do love airpots, but they require extra watering, and they take up more space than a traditional pot.

Hell yeah! I look at the catalog because I like flipping through it by hand, but since I’m zone 9b, I gotta go online to make sure stuff is hardy

I can see how much you had to fight the vining on that VB! The thin sharply sawtoothed leaves also are pretty great, that looks super Viet or Thai to me

Paging @MAHAKALA @StocktonT @Upstate @lefthandseeds doctors whats your opinion on this patient we are presented with today?

Yup. I’m pickin up what you’re puttin down. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Edit: that said, I found this picture of Bodhi’s Acapulco Gold and it looks pretty bang on…maybe it’s the Central American side poking through.

How do you find that light for heat output?
I had a suspicion it might be running hot…

You would be correct. I actually ran the tent partially open all summer because the temps would get too high.
I could have cranked the 6 in. Ac infinity higher, but negative pressure kills my footprint

Is that in a 4x4? You run an HLG rspec too, right? I have to leave mine partly open too, or dim the light way down.

The 4x5 is running a Phlizon 640W bar light.
The light is excellent except for a few things like the thumb screws to attach the light bars (they’re just s pain), and the heat production.
I do have both an HLG 300 RSpec and the 300 BSpec as well, and yes, they’re little space heaters, but I run them ultra low because they’re in a 2x4 :sweat_smile:

I’m with lefthandseeds. I’m liking the tall stretchies best. Surely some Indica In this short one. Looks more pakistani to me with those pronounced elongated calyxes, but I see that swami carries an afghan pakistan cross too.
