What's HomegrownVABudz up too?

Cherry and watermelon gummies for the event on the 22nd. I remelted the watermelon gummies and added some sugar and malic acid, now they’re tasty :yum:

The cherry gummies REALLY smell like cherries :joy:

I’ll start bagging them up either tonight or tomorrow and keep them in the freezer.

I thought about getting some green food coloring for the watermelon gummies to help the color pop, but I’m not spending $4 on a bottle of coloring for the like two drops I’d use :joy:

Rockwool huh?
Never had interest to use it either. And your description makes me not want to use it even more. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I got em cuz they were cheaper than the root riot cubes, and twice as many. I’ll make it work, hopefully, but never again :joy:

So the lack of a humidity dome has wreaked it’s havok on these cuts. They might not make it :sweat_smile:, in case they don’t I’m gonna go forward with my same plan, but with seeds.

The show must go on as they say! :joy:

My carefully thought out and planned seed choices :rofl:

Gonna run through these, 4 week veg, flip to flower. Quart containers with grow dots and recharge. I’ll be attempting the dripper again as well.

I’m gonna slowly start hunting through some OG seeds as I go.

I’m sorry I didn’t warn you. Just thinking about how it feels makes my skin crawl.

I just rooted 10/10 of my tomato suckers in root riots. I do a bunch of different hydro vegetables and keep thinking I should be less bougie and just get something cheaper, or use rock wool. The root riot are so worth it.
My actual complaint with the Rockwool is that it is too wet. Too many seeds and cuttings just rotted. Maybe it’s better for ebb and flow, but for NFT or DWC it’s garbage.

Whew. I think you triggered me a bit there :joy:

I love the root riot cubes, they’re just so damn expensive.

Raid rooter work very well too. Ive used both and they seem identical.

Good to know! I’ll get them when I need them.

Even the knock-off brand Rapid Rooters should work well. I swear they’re the same products.

It’s a slippery slope with the knockoffs. I’ve used many of the aerogarden sized knockoffs and some get pretty lame. I wouldn’t grow weed in them.

My husband found the batch I have now on woot. I can’t remember the price but it was less than the hydro store
