I plan to run those in the fall. A brother sent me some SSDD snips and 2 took. They came from @HolyAngel’s seeds I’m pretty sure. I’ll run a tent full of the SSDD in October.

I’ve got an eye Hortilux in one tent and a Super HPS in the other tent. It’s time for new ones and I too am wondering what’s out there. TBH I really can’t tell any difference unless it’s bulb life. I never let them burn out so I don’t know about that. Thanks for not giving me the usual speel about why I need to switch to LED.

Blessings…

Cool, on the pots (pun intended). I love the frozen bottle idea. Simple physics. Maybe put one or two of them on during the hottest part of the day. Or, at night or day… put a couple of frozen bottles on top of the soil, without holes. Just let the cool sink into the root zone during the day or evening, without saturating the plant. 
No SSDD in the outdoor grow. I have some different kush going and some Oaxaca that may stay in large 7gal pots that I can take inside to finish. I have a bunch of other stuff, and they all look great today.
Got some of Lefty’s Black and Blue Lebanese, and Black Lebanese, Geneva’s Kush from an OpenGrow forum friend, Lavender, Frosted Valley (Baked Beanz), Lemon Thai (only 1 out of 4 from one version, but 2 for 2 from SAN’s), Space Monkey, and one Monochrome Rain (@NugLifeFarms420). But, I just dropped 4 Goji f2 tonight.
My current flowering girls are 1 Red Headed Stranger (clone from a 4/20 deal, local dispo), 2 Bubblegum Runtz, and 2 Candy Cake Punch (@NugLifeFarms420), 1 SSDD f2bx, and 1 Marauder from @SamwellBB . They’re getting to about two or three weeks from finish. RHS said 12 weeks online, but it seems like it will finish sooner. It’s a short stocky plant according to SF. I didn’t know that when I topped it. It never stretched and made a big knuckle of buds on the top, heh.
Otherwise, they’re all looking good. SSDD f2bx is sort of small and not sure it will pack more on in the end, but we’ll see. They were all small when I flipped them and I expected them all to stretch and grow more, as I had put them all in larger pots. Oh well, they are making up for it in frost and terps. I’m going to try a late bloom product for the last two weeks of flower, that adds size and weight. It’s Overdrive from Advanced Nutrients. Maybe I can get a little more from them. pics tomorrow or soon.
The one thing I miss about TV are the sports. Internet is pay as you go. I don’t really miss it though. I get on here and bullshit and look up lots of stuff for reference. It’s long days here now, too, so I’m staying outside till almost dark.
I’ll be looking for the bird tomorrow. Hopefully I can turn it into something magic. peace

I’m glad to hear 2x of them hung on 
They’re cuts from a stellar F1 I’ve been holding on to for a few years. She’s extra frosty, might even cool down your shed, lol! There’s bunch of pics in my thread, just don’t leave any of your heat!

Yep I use it. Solid stuff. If you run low holla at me and I can share some. [quote=“GMan, post:1276, topic:65758”]
some Oaxaca
[/quote]
Oaxacan is exciting for sure. It takes me back to the daze! I’ve been afraid to grow some for fear I won’t live long enough to see it finished! Doesn’t that shit take like 27 weeks of flowering?

Have I got a lost magpie or did he show up today? That sonofabitch is probably drunk again. I’ll start checking the beer joints between here and there.

I’ll never be able to get that picture out of my mind now… 
It took me two years before I actually knew if my postman was a male or a female. She’s a female if that makes sense now.

Even old, intermittently white(ish) sheets on the roof have a major impact I’ve discovered (says the guy from Canada). For real though, don’t have to wait for $$ and paint if said shed is reasonably small. Just go to the Sally Ann, get some 'stainers and Bob’s-yer-Auntie.
Hey, it hit 50c here last year for 4-5 days where it rarely hits 30c and an entire town burst into flame. Gone. Not a surrounding forest fire coming in, the town just lit on fire. “Pacific Northwest heatdome” ring any bells. 'Course your Pacific Northwest is our Pacific Southwest! I had a ground cover evergreen that I water every night just up and turn red and drop all its needles in two days. Wasn’t dry at all, it simply boiled in place. I now live in total fear, when you’ve seen the havoc that does to a temperate rainforest ecology, it hurts, bad.
