Minions of the Dark

[MrTea]

All of you pulling down outdoor harvests makes me jealous. I only moved into this spot on June 1st so no time for outdoor. The yard looked liked this when I moved in
after several hundred hours work I have turned it into this. Going to put 2-3 plants outdoor in these spots next year.

This is a big ass self wick in the making
Lots of hard work in a short amount of time will pay off. Putting in 45 hours at work plus 20-30 on this yard every week.

Thats why I'm lookin at replacement parts from twister... not wretchedly horrible... round 600 each for the tumbler and blade... they got the bearing assembly as well... the rest is pretty standard... 1hp motor (theirs is 825$), squirrel cage fan, a little work... but shit are they overblown... I mean a replacement on/off toggle switch is 107$??

the tumbler guide?... 135$...

This aluminum plate?... 250$...

hopper?... 375$

best of all... this 6.25 hose...

how the fuck is that 70$ LMFAO....

the plastic belt cover costs 3x as much as the brush bearings for the damn thing... I dont need to pay that much inflation for a name on a piece of plastic... I just need the blades from the factory...

A while back I popped some Goblin Queen seeds and ended up with one female plant. She is the one I had issues with twisted leaves but by selective cuttings of branches was able to straighten her out. I took that daughter and put her outdoors to get pollinated from my old 70's seeds males, Eminem and MTV. I ran her and I really like the structure and bud formation. I had to take her a little early because of PM. I spent about 6 hours retrieving the seeds from her and ended up with 1000's of seeds.

Perhaps I'm a completely uncouth and untutored buffoon with a penchant for pointless pithy remarks, but am I missing something; are you overlooking the susceptibility to PM or is it a non issue?

Thanks for the offer and oppertunity SG you are a very stand up dude that's why I wouldn't mind helping ya look through your creations.

It is the first time I've run Goblin Queen outside. Here in the PNW PM is definitely a problem along with bud rot/mold. Next summer I'm going to use light deprivation about mid July so they will finish in September before the weather turns to the usual foggy, misty, rainy, cloudy days of fall.

I do have a couple of ladies that are holding up quite well without any issues due to the wetness here in my forest. I'll probably run more of those next summer.

The plants have taught me a lot this outdoor run.

I've had the same strain get PM one year, while diff strains were little affected.
Then the next year the same affected strain was PM free, and others affected.

I only had one cut of Dionysus, that had no tolerance to PM, and tossed it.

PM is an equal opportunity attacker IMO, especially in the damp PNW climate.

I thought you were moving out west!! What happened? And if you were moving you're putting in a lot of work on something you may NOT being using....Sorry, I don't get it....LOL

Finances stalledmy move for at least another year. Fortunately while this garden took a lot of work it's only cost $30 thus far; all recycled materials. Even if I get only 1 summer of usr for $30 I'm growing >$2000 of food! My roommates will be here for awhile so they will make full use of it. Pay it forward eh?

Let's get our nominations in for best 2014 outdoor grow, submissions end 11/1. Voting after that. Only five gardens were nominated, so much more going on out there!!!

 

[SG1]

10 Pimp daddys dropped off at the labs today.
Results within a week.

Praying for a 20%+ pheno

 

[HatchBrew]

Just feel like saying "pimp slap"

They're going to be fighting over a hoe or two...

How much does the test require?

Super baked off the Overlord. Wish I had more, little plant got stunted, don't worry got clones in the works! It's just so orangey and relaxing. Smooth criminal....

 

[HatchBrew]

hahaha "you may not vote on any more threads today". Guess I've been getting around too much.

 

[SG1]

How much does the test require?

....

$50 and 1-1.5 grams.

 

[HatchBrew]

$50 and 1-1.5 grams.

Nice. Dispensary near me offers once a month, "instant" test results. They scan/gas it there and sends the information back to their database and then you get your results. But don't think I'd get the full terpene makeup though. OTH it's only $25.


I'm just curious. Something I want to start doing, just for personal results/tracking. Talked to couple other big names, who offer packages, but seem more dispensary oriented. Most of these were the $50+ range.

Welcome to the minions! Glad you got some beans. They;re tasty.

Nocturnal:
is Afgooey (unknown PNW cut)
crossed with Dark Queen (Cali connect Blackwater x BC Bud Depot The Purps)

I'm actually sitting down to trim some right now!

Mine's some fruity goodie goodness. Aroma at least haven't partaken in smoked yet.

Picture from 4 weeks ago.

Hanging colas, just had been deleafed, then went to the tent to dry. In jar now for week.

Others have ran it more than me.

 

[AugustWest]

^^

thanks man..

nice plants!

have fun trimmin'

 

[MrTea]

No more moving pots during watering. 26 gal tote in its new compartment.

 

[Seaf0ur]

? how you gonna lift that pot to feel the weight? especially with a plant in there... i'm not sure that plastic rim will hold up either...

 

[MrTea]

Not going to be lifting the pot to feel the weight. Justwatering by eye. The plastic rim is not the only part holding it up, I chiseled out around the handles so they sit snug and flush with everything.almost allof the weight is being supported by the handles. The frame is even pinching the tote enough near the top that its impossible for it to bow out
