Nice scattered weather here in this part of the keystone!!! Hope the Tri state doesn't get too much rain for all you guerillas out there.....My STEM is ERECT!!!

My thoughts exactly ive had enough time and good weather to get most of my outdoor plots ready for this weeks transplants... the little fuckers arent so little anymore haha...im pretty sure i have a female of both the compact and the ridiculously tall phenos of my Real Seeds Nepalese... the big one is gonna be a MONSTER (the tall pheno finishes at 9 to 10 feet haha)...their from the himilayas so im gonna stick em up on one of the coolest mountain peaks i know (way off the beaten path)...also i got some real sweet early skunk/chemdd x early skunks and a crazy Mandala #1 girlie whose smell i can best describe as Mellow Yellow (lemony limey as hell)...i want so bad to finish the Mandala inside under the lamps but it just isn't feasible now at my current location.... damn i cant wait for october...these girls will come down and ill be starting to play in the dirt inside again haha

Good luck everyone and i hope the good weather sticks around a lil longer

Hey all, I had another awesome time at chucks farm last night!! Anybody that's looking to have an awsome time and meet some really cool people should come check out chuck's harvestfest in OCT. Anybody that doesn't know about it, just pm me and I'll give you all the details. I hope everybody is still doing good around here, keep it green brothers!!

Also on a side note, anybody have any experience with any of Chimera's strains??

I've been growing C4 for about a year and a half know, as it is a winner in my book. I had a pretty awesome pheno of fighting buddha that I lost last year, and I'm growing gf x bb, and aurora right now along side the c4. The only other strains that I have any experience growing is Mandala's and Sagarmatha's gear. I started out with hashberry and speedqueen about 6 years ago now and ran them for about 2 years before I tried a pack of Sagarmatha's gardener's choice that I got a total of 4 females. Out of those 4 there were definitely at least 2 different strains and they were all pretty easy to grow. All of the sagarmatha plants were grown outside, so I never saved them and didn't realize how good they were until I was smoking them. Now I've got the cloning process down and have been happy ever since. it just sux that I lost out in preserving some real quality genetics.

Oh I also grew out a pack of Nirvana's aurora indica about a year ago that I didn't care for. I ended up with 6 females, but I just didn't have any of them make my socks go up and down, lol.

Welcome WaTeR! No such thing as a dumb question. How else do we learn?
No, halogen lights are no good for growing. If you're on a budget, you can use the curly fluros, but you'll get the best results from an HPS (high pressure sodium) bulb. econolight.com usually has some good deals.

 

[WaTerR]

oh alright thanx vintner ill go out and get some curly ones now

The festival at Chucks was called "ElectroJam: The Musical (Festival)". It definitely wasn't as big as the Harvestfest but it was still about half as big, maybe a lil more. Yeah Chuck is always down at the market. U should definitely stop in and say high and ask him how the festival on sat went.

Having a rough OD season this year..

Having a rough OD season this year..

Heres my 9 plants so far.. The 5 in the front in the 4 bigger holes are Triesel from AnnaC, the 4 in the back with the 3 holes are Short Ryder from Nirvana.. Ive got Gyspys Mazars in germination right now too..

Mandala's Gear

Mandala's Gear

Also Ribsauce, about the Mandala #1, I don't have any experience myself with it, but have read alot about peoples grows, and the majority consensus is that it is a pretty decent strain. I only have experience with Mandala's Hashberry and Speedqueen, having grown them both for about 2 year, indoor and out. So if you have any questions on those, I could help ya out. I still have packs of Satori, Kalichakra, and Sadhu that I have yet to pop.... One of these days, lol.

Hey they don't look too bad. A little small for this stage of the game, but if your weather is anything like central PA, We had a late start because of cold temps, and we are getting way too much rain
My outdoor crop consists of 27 clones so far and most of them are a little bigger than yours, but way behind this time last summer. Heck, If I wouldn't of revegged my last batch of 11 c4 clones and put those out with the unflowered clones, I prolly wouldn't have any big bushes to harvest this year. It's just simply amazing how bushy revegged plants can get!!

 

[Prof Sublime]

Yea GT I had the same problems here in South Jersey.. It wasnt safe to start germinating until mid may.. Then with 2-3 weeks of no sun only rain really fucked shit up. Plus all my plants are from seeds. Thanks ALOT for the kind words, check out my diary and look for my indoor grow to see some real buds hahaha not those whimpy plants.. Last year around this time my plant was as tall as me and in a small pot no even in the ground.. Thanks again for the kind words brotha.. I wish you the best luck with your grow.. :friends:

Yo Prof! Like GT said, they don't look too bad at all. Could always be worse, brudda! Hope this year's outdoor works out better for you...

Peace and stay safe all.

 

[Prof Sublime]

Thanks mjcuresall, its good to see you around still.. How you been?

Not too bad, thanks.
High temps were killing me for a while, but I'm almost ready to start up again. I tell ya man, I'm getting a damn good lesson in patience!
I ain't stopped by your thread in too long... think I'll go catch up in the morn'...

 

[Ribsauce]

GTS thanks for the quick responses and kind words... we should try to get together at the Harvestfest and burn a couple hehe...and yea Prof Sublime you got this man... i think the monsoons may have layed off at least for a little...i wanted to have my guys out a month ago but wasnt able to get them out and had to keep them under the MH longer than i had originally wanted... im pretty sure it was a blessing in disguise though
Good luck everyone and stay safe
