How do you like those method 7 glasses? Are they pretty durable? I have a cheap pair of grow light lenses and think it might be worth stepping up to a more legit pair. Mine have tons of scratches on them, so they can’t really be that protective.

I got the $60 pair free with my scorpion Diablo, they are very comfortable and the colour is nice looking through them. I don’t know if I could justify buying anything other than their base model in the future but they are definitely better than the safety glasss I was using before.
But I couldn’t justify $100+ brand name sunglasses in the first place so that up to the user I guess

Yeah I’m not into $100 regular sunglasses either, but if there is a product that will keep my eyes safe and is made well, I could spend a little on em. Thanks for the feedback

I think if you checked out the ‘Agent’ base model you’ll be impressed. i feel my eyes strain less with them on, but I still wear a ball cap when in the tent

So I’ve pretty much been spraying and changing clothes like 3 times a day between the 3 tents and the house plants.
Everything seems to be under control now.
I’m gonna upsize this aloe tonight it’s about time
And look at this Acid Kush auto it’s shot up like crazy, I keep bending the limbs down.I broke the top while training so now it’s growing 2-4 tops
Everything didn’t like being sprayed,I turned the lights down for a day afterwards but they’ll pick back up again

Some crazy narrow leaves on that!

The weird thing is the fans leaves on the bottom were relatively mid sized in reference to narrowness but some of them were easily 10+ Inches, the size of dinner plates.
This new growth has been quite narrow as you pointed out, could be the genetics,stress from topping/LST,going dry or the spraying lol
Watered the inside flower tent it’s doing good.
Found a Peruvian torch that needs a new pot too

@Greasy those Durban poison and BD X DP arrived today!!! I’m super excited to have these to try this spring
Healthy looking beans and surprisingly quick in the mail
Edit-Turns out I was mistaken about the origin of those seeds and corrected in the next post

@EpiKatz your Durban poison and DPX Blue Dream arrived safely yesterday!!
Thank you so very much, I really appreciate it!
I’ll probably be starting them soon honestly, I want to give them a good head start to go out mid may.
And the weather has been so weird around here lately jumping from -25C to +1 and freezing rain.
but I’m honestly willing to risk sending out a few cacti next week if we stay in this warm front

I was wondering if they might have been got at the border. Glad you got em. I think my hand writing might have confused the thing.I sent Durban Poison and Humboldt Sour diesel - I think. Don’t have any Blue Dream left. But i did have some crossing. Hmmm…Oh well, whatever they are, I hope they work for you. LOL! As for some cacti - oh yes please! Whenever you feel right about it, let me know and I’ll look forward for the revelations.

In the letter you said the Durban poison was from 2020 and you threw in quite a few of them just in case some don’t start.
I’m making more sense of the card now!
said there was a bit of a mix up with the flower this season so you were thinking it was MD15(F) which is a cross of Blue Dream & Mr.Nice X with Durban poison
And I spilled KoH on the card now so it’s harder to read lol

Errr…uhhhhh… I really don’t remember. Losing brain cells y’know. I sure could have sent MD15 which like was crossed (by mistake) with Durban. But it’s the Durban poison that might work best in a short season. I didn’t use a lot of nutes on her. Put compost out a few months before planting to let it work into soil and generous amount of worm castings. Later on I added a few things - organic all and outdoors it became a big beautiful bush. In the green house (3 gal bucket) got big faster . I’m anxious to see how the crossed up seeds do. Easy with the KoH (What is KoH?) Off to bed -…

I’ve been growing these things since 2009 and have yet to sample them. Been giving quite a few away this last year or two.
I think I’ll try some this summer when I’m done school and have a job.
Just took 5 PT and 1 Bolivian torch tonight to ship to friends

Wow, great looking specimens! My big one is standing about 20" tall now, but its getting a little scabby. Not sure what that’s about yet. My smaller one is at about 12" and healthy.

Thanks for the compliment I think my tallest is about 30” now.
The first quite a few years I had them I wasn’t treating them ‘great’ and lost a few.
You can look at some of my pics and see how skinny some of mine are at the base. I feel the last 3 years in particular I have done much better with them outside and with a dedicated tent inside for the winter.

Right on! Mine live in my room, I’ve got 2 walls dedicated to plants… Hoyas, wandering jews, purple passion vines, African milk bushes, pathos, tons of succulents, maybe ill put my cactai outside this summer, they might like it eh?

Every cacti I put out from late may to late august have bursts of growth that you could see in the colour of the cacti, they all grew way wider and healthier than I could do inside.
We had a weird summer last year with multiple weeks of 35-40C or at least 3-4 days of the week that warm and they loved it.
Only risk is possibly bringing pests inside at the end of the season.
My GF has quite a collection of house plants,
No hoyas though. How do you like growing them?
Edit- I did a purple passion in a hydro bucket in my fish room years ago it vined around the entire room
