Infinitesimal- So would I!
Poopy- For sure bro, the deathbubbles are really just blowing me back!
Twisted pleasur- thanks
Turbo14- thank you
FOE20- yeah the ECSB is nuts on the stretch, super branchy and super vigorous just like her mother the ECSD. She doesn't stretch as long though seems to be slowing down alot around day 18ish. I have been measureing them throughout flower clocking her stretch. The stone def surpasses bubba imo, and lab test have proven. I have never heard so many good things about a strain then sour bubble when you light one up. The taste, smell, bag appeal, and stone is all their in abundance. Still my favorite weed of all time nothing I have ran or seen has come close to include alot of elites. I actually haven't flushed my big room ever, it is all organic but I do feed straight RO for a couple weeks. I haven't gotten as much color lately as I normally do so I am playing with the amount of nitrogen a bit. Regardless everything has been burning white. Thanks for stopping in and the kind comments.
LyryC- Hey thanks alot. Hell yeah the large sealed room is in use, it is perpetual flower with sour bubble
TURBD- Thanks, hell no I don't raise lights up just for pics lol, it takes a good min to raise and lower lights. The lights are at 26" in the last pictures of my big room if that is what you are referring to, I had just added the plants to the room, going from 4k to 10k so I acculmate (sp?) them into the new environment. I shoot for 18" but I concentratre alot on a nice light spread as well.
the gnome- good to see you man, I got the Bonsai hero trimmers online. I am actually having a hell of a time with them but it could be due to user error. I will be contacting the manufacture/supplier soon to talk warranty. When they work, they fucking work. But don't go messing with the tightness of the blades holy headache. It is still a touchy subject.
Well IC small update,
The DEATHBUBBLE are insane, the stickiest nugs I have ever put my nose to. Variation is through the roof, trichrome prodction is something ridicoulous. I will have the ones worth testing tested. Frostiest nugs I have ever grown I do believe. Insane just blowing me back everytime I inspect them. They start fresh water only very soon, a few more weeks and it will be a wrap and I will come back and give a nice one on one pheno by pheno report.
Tomorrow some new girls will be in my hands and getting vegged for the next flip/flop run.

This will be my first introduction to OG's so it should be alot of fun I am super stoked! I am on a search for a new lady I cannot live without, maybe one of these will be it.
Also my seed harvest is drying and the orgy chamber has a new project already sprouting from seed. Back a long while ago I put my first ever collected pollen on the Katsu Bubba Kush. I used two different males of sour bubble bx4 and pollenated seperate branches. I got 1 seed from one male and 30 or so from another.
That whole pack of SB, females and males were unsatisfactory for me as far as the sour goes, but the plants were excellent quality as alaways just to "bubba kushy" for me. Chocolately, hashy smell flavor. Also the structure was a bit branchier and airy compared ot the bx3s. After growing out seeds created with other males form the same seed pack I can safely say they passed on the kushyness.
So I am sprouting 10 katsu bubba kush x Sour Bubble male #11 seeds. I am selecting the best bubba kush leaning males and back crossing it to the katsu. I will do this 2 or 3 more times, hopefully creating Katsu Bubba Kush in seed form. Only time and test will tell but I am going to complete this project fast as possible so steady production working towards the goal. After seeing katsu S1's I think she will be a good candidate for this, and the sour bubble males couldn't have been any better. So we can watch this progress, should take me the better part of 2013 but I will get errrr done.

ahh the GF out of town, the house to yourself video games and jars full of fresh herb the life! lol....anyways that deathbubble sounds great cant wait to see some pictures..
transition to OGs should be easy...just gotta train more with a nice trellis system or stakes, and they stretch like crazy and like to flop over...but the right cut will yield properly if done right i just pulled 20 ounces off a 600watt in 4x4 tray with around 25 plants so they yield better in SOG with smaller plants...i have hit a lb in 4x4 area with 9 large plants but i needed 5 gal pots and almost 2 months of veg (clone new batch right as you flip first batch to 12/12) im just getting used to OGs they can take a good amount of nutes, my ideal zone is 800-1200, they start to yellow early sometimes and are known to love cal/mag....@ 70 days they get so gooey and sticky its ridiculous some of the most mouth watering herb on the planet....

YesProp215- I believe the last two pages have deathbubble shots of them in the mid 40's, but yeah finished shots will be better. I was warned of their stretch by you and IDO today so I will keep that in mind. Good thing because my timing is a hair off and I will only have a few weeks to veg them. For now I can only run 6 of them per 1K max in the flip/flops it is all my numbers will allow. This first mixed run is to get aquainted, I am looking forward to all the fire herb for my headstash and ny patients. Good to know they are heavy feeders I will keep my eye on them to make sure the soil mix is enough, it should be good to go. Thanks for the tips I know I should have my hands full propping all the flop and different strains under one light but hey I got alot of bamboo. I know when I see ghost og and king louie photos my heart flutters so I cannot wait to bury my face in a pile of it.

cant wait to see what you do with the louie
ubi- thanks alot and me neither, should turn out pretty sweet.
vanilla moon- The louie should be fantastic judging by what I have seen, it was a love at first site sorta thing. The ghost however, when I see photos of her it takes my breath away.
Black Elf- thanks
Alright the clones came in as expected except there was another bad ass girl. All were rooted prior to arriving and they went straight 7 gallon pots and under a 1k MH. Clones that were gifted from a good friend.

Sour Biesel (ECSD x Sour Bubble bx4 male #14)
Looking like I will be backing up some deathbubble clones as well, lots of awesomeness out of the 10 females. After I smoke them up I will decide if their clones live or not. I have 2 katsu bubba kush x sour bubble bx4 male #11 seedlings sprouted, the beans seem to be very hard shelled. I added another 10 so 19 total, I will get more for sure. Hoping for at least 6 and as many males as possible.
I have some East Coast Sour Bubble AKA Sour Biesel pics for you. The stretch has halted it seems and it is nug time. A little leaf curl under the hoods hotspot and a perfect amount of nute burn. I got the under carriage cleaned up and now it is time to just enjoy the show.
Day 24:
Branchy hoe, only 3.5 weeks of veg or less. Under her skirt shot!
She filled in nicely, easy to train, you just have to prop the flop. A little light color in the middle due to the hoods hotspot and me rotating them through it. I got the hood raised a couple more inches and it seems to be helping. These are a little light sensitive just like the ecsd, no need to bang the shit out of them with the light.

have you had any problems with PM on your SB? if so what was your solution? im 4 weeks in flower battling pm
gilmo8taco- I have had no pm ever really, once I seen it on a small clone I recieved but eagle20 took care of that.
Mr.Cleancut- Thanks and you are welcome lol

So are you thinking about going back to RDWC now that you have a few runs in or are you going to stick with organics?
Do you find that the market is getting more demanding as far as quality of smoke goes?
P.S Nice friend to have. What a tool chest.

Third Coast- The market always wants quality, and if it is demanding it more I wouldn't be surprised people should be getting better around here as far as growing and purchasing good nugs. Its an evolving thing. I couldn't tell you myself though, I don't really handle much at all and the stuff I do handle I hear nothing but good things. I pretty much just grow it I don't mess with the distribution side much.
One thing I have noticed though that I don't like is people are not willing to pay for quality, at all. It is very discouraging and that is why the current round of sour bubble in flower is my last on this scale. People want everything for 32 whether it is straight trash or out of this world. I am going to start running stuff with higher yields since the market won't pay for the good shit. The only thing for me to worry about is quality for my patients after that the general market can get what they pay for. It will still be quality but I am going for max production, so whatever I find yielding the most on a yearly basis is going to be ran. Why would I produce a Mercedes if you are going to pay the same price as a Kia? Thats my attituide towards that, touchy subject....
I won't go back to RDWC with all my chickens in one basket, I just can't handle the thought and stress from losing even one 15-20 unit crop. If I go back to hydro it will be something simliar to the cap monster ebb and flo, probably custom made. The soil isn't bothering me to much right now because I have been paying a friend in need of work to mix it and remove it when the plants are finished. Believe me though hydro would be nice.
Sneaky G- Thanks alot man and I am glad to hear you are having good results with the soil mix. The soil works very well, please keep me updated on how everything turns out I interested in seeing/hearing others experience with it.
