Question guys. I ain't ever grown outdoors in florida and I sent a relative some Blue Dream seeds back in April. When is harvest time here? Or is it that they start flowering as soon as they are outside? Gonna be in florida in a few weeks time and wondering if I should stop by and see him or find other arrangements for some smoke.

KK, good to see ya back! If yer boy planted the seeds right away and is growing outdoors he should have some good sized plants by now but they are probably far from being ready to smoke. Blue Dream is a sativa dominant strain if I remember right so they are probably 3-4 weeks into flower at the most right now, probably won't be ready for another 4-6 weeks. Just depends how much sativa is really in them...PM if you have questions, I'd be happy to chat.

MK, it's back to school time so look around for a goose neck desk lamp or a goose neck flashlight and use that to light your specimens from above. I got one a couple years ago and it works great!!

I have to adjust from time to time but for the most part it's the best solution I've found. Make sure you run your bottom light at full bright and with the aperture wide open and you should have a pretty good view.

Biggest draw back with a traditional microscope is the very limited depth of field. There are specialty microscope/magnifiers for viewing larger objects but when I looked into them they were WAY more scratch than I wanted to part with.

Edit: I just looked at the picture on the web site - is that a light coming out of the neck of the scope?

It seemed it could do the trick and under $250 I'm pretty happy with it.
And yes that is a light, it is woefully under powered.

Here's our next suspect... I think it is a juvenile springtail.

Thanks DP. Yeah I figured it wouldn't be ready yet. Oh well, Plan B it is.

Still he should have some pretty good smoke when it finishes. I got a hard sativa leaning pheno last time I grew it and the stuff was excellent. One plant went 11 weeks but damn...it was wonderful, with that creamy blueberry taste and a devastating head high.

Gonna be a good September for him.

Thanks again for the info. One of these days I am gonna pull a plant out of the tent and put it in the sun.

Looking dank as always Hugh!! Good to see the TT in the rotation, glad ya settled on a keeper it was a pretty hard choice between those two for sure. Just sent some Triangle Trip out to OR today so they will be growing it out that way as soon as they arrive.

That Purple Diesel is looking fire as well.

Alright, I gotta get this off my chest. ... ... I just snuck a woman, who I've been seeing on the side for about 6 months now, into my laundry room at home, today is my only day off in two weeks and .... I had sex with her.

I've had a coupla-four Bigfoots ... NE ways ...

I can still smell her perfume on my hands ...

Three weekends ago we got a hotel room together. I think she is awesome. we share a lot of the same interests ... she loves nature, she smokes drugs, she believes in the universe.

she has a hot body and a cute face, she makes a lot of money, and she hates her husband ...

here's the tough part .,..
who happens to be a deputy sheriff for the neighboring county.

She is married and I'm married ... she has a kid and I have a kid. she is in a better position in life that I am right now because her nursing job pays way more than my cooking job ...

her husband's a dick and my wife is a bitch ... nuff said.

but, he's a cop. if I go to the next level besides just fucking with her and leave my wife, I'll have to stop growing. I know it. I don't think for a second he's let his daughter live in a house where I grow.
and, my wife lets me grow as long as she doen't know about it ... get it. any ways ...

right now it's just fun, she has no idea about my extra curricular activities and I don't plan on telling her JIC.

but, I'm starting to fall for this woman. and she's definitely falling for me ... I mean, she parked two blocks over and walked to my house just so we could do it in the laundry room ... and ... I got mine! and she didn't get hers .... she didn't even come close.

then she dipped. out.

I'm kinda in a bind and don't know what to do. and... am I a piece of shit?


me and the kid are about to go and buy some fish ... I'm hooked on american cichlids.

2nd edit ... post: #666 is that sign or what ... e v i l from the fru its of the deh veeal


I love this story! Do make makes you happy. Don't worry about leaving your wife or even living a double life. That's life!

Damn, I forgot about writing that shit. Damn, I've got a big mouth sometimes when I get bullshit drunk. [slowly shakes head in disgust]

Anyways, thanks for that seven ten four twenty. I stopped talking to the other woman, though ... the guilt was eating me alive!

as if you couldn't tell while I'm spilling my guts and getting rude all over the place.


enough about me ...
beautiful photography of some stunning looking plants you guys. y'all's gots skills :biggrin:

Smoked some 3 year old Sour Cream and some 3 year old Chronic at last. Wife brought some herb to missississississississippi. Not as bad as I expected. Airtight and dark storage helped keep the potency drop to a minimum.

Asslover - looking good. Wife love's purple kush. Keep reading about Gage Green happy customers. Hope you are one too.

Coba - smart move bro.

Hey Hugh: is ECSD a hermie monster? Would like to try one of the origin strains in the tent one day when I move back to Fla.
