I'm super high and my contacts are stuck to my eyeballs. lol

@DoubleDD's sorry I somehow overlooked your question, but yes the air goes in the side at the bottom....I just didnt have the barb fitting on there....but basically you have it....the air forces the water to travel upward and then back down in a continuous loop...hope that helps

@Cheffz welcome, I agree Great White and Orca are great but wouldnt go as far as saying it is the best thing on earth. You may want to give this a try https://www.fungi.com/product-detail/...uble-1-lb.html but hey we agree on using benies

Alright, I have a little to report, decided to throw down some Sunshine Daydream from Bodhi and some Talisman from Gage Green
I threw down 5 of the 11 Talisman and got 5 for 5


There was one that had the shell stuck and I had to do quick surgery but I dont know if it will make it

On the Sunshine Daydream 1 of 5 germed, I still have 6 beans left but mentioned this small problem to Bodhi, no questions asked he is sending out a new pack. That is a class act and that is the type of breeder I want to support :yes

got some SSDD going my self, 7/7 germ rate on my SSDD.

I almost always have to remove seed hulls when popping seeds... not every seed... but every batch there is always one or two.

I never have a problem with it though... regularly misting the seedlings helps a lot, then I get in there with the tip of a wooden skewer and pull off the hull and placenta like thing that covers the embryo, keeping it moist during this process helps avoid damage.

I was really looking for a way to avoid using an airstone for brewing and this would work well if I had the ability to build something like this, which I might if I sat down but not without a few mistakes due to trial and error. right now that is not something I can afford to do but, I might make something like Nes is using for his outdoor grow. he's using an air diffuser hexagon and I can make that no problem! it's just like lego's and I can take them apart and run it through the dishwasher to sterilize I also am doing a more water only grow with a few aerated teas every so often so I don't have to clean it so much. school is about to start and I'm taking an extra big load of credits so this sounded really easy and simple. your design looks great though and I am interested in the energy aspects of which way to make the water flow/spin. have you read anything about that?

LOL Infini, I was calling the placenta the forskin in another thread....thats funny but I like yours better than saying forskin lol I knew there was a better word for that

Yeah that sucked going 1 for 5 but honestly I dont care now. I have a ton of for Bodhi. He is one dude I would like to pow wow with just because of his kindness. I honestly cant believe that he didnt even question me. It was literally where do I send the seeds. Stand up all the way.

I usually have good results dealing with the shells but this one I over looked the placenta causing it to hold too much moisture as it was in a dome. It appears it lost half of the cotyledon. Time will tell.

Hi there DoubleDD's, I actually just copied the design as it was easy enough. It moves a lot of air and water without dead spots. This is exactly what I have been looking for. I havent seen Nes' brewer but I have seen the hexagon bubble type brewers that work well and easy to build

yeah if you don't remove them soon enough it can kill the cotyledons severely stunting if not killing the seedling... been there, I try and treat my sprouts literally like babies until I start to see a couple sets of true leaves, they are just to valuable.

and yeah bodhi is the man, he is very generous and has excellent taste in cannabis.

baybhuey, I just wanted to tell ya that you're one of the nice people here on ICMAG. you're kind and helpful. thank you!

[BayBHuey]

@Infini LOL I have my little ritual doing seeds sounds like you do too. Yeah they are like gold to me...I believe any one could be the one so I hate loosing anything.

I think my son was telling me Bodhi lost one of his fathers for breeding in a heatwave or something so I wanted to possibly get some of that lineage before its gone

@DoubleDD's your too kind, thank you! I wish you could have seen this place back in its heyday. This place was full of users like me, well there still is but not as many.

If there is anything you need dont hesitate to ask, I get a good feeling from helping others, makes me feel useful

Well I have some bad things to say about Rare Dankness. I contacted them concerning all the hermies I got in a pack of their Doc's OG. After going back and forth with them with proof of purchase etc. etc.
They just didnt care they were selling hermies after it was all said and done...so I will no longer support a breeder that doesnt give a fu** about what they are selling...which means I will no longer show or discuss any of their genetics in my garden or not...so sad

Its been a little bit since I updated whats going on...I chopped the Island Sweet Skunk...should help with getting things back on track and better organized...finally found the sweet spot for the under current system and roots are finally dropping down...added some new genetics to the lineup...Talisman seedlings are coming along...The lone Sunshine Daydream is hanging in there...Im sure a bunch of stuff Im forgetting to mention.

I want to mention that the Under Current system is running a pH of 6.2 ec .4 temp 75f (need to snap pics)
2ml A+B grow
1ml cal/mag

I haven't shown or discussed much of the Strawberry Cough I am running from Hazeman...but its about time I do...I got 2 phenos from the 5 beans thrown down...I have to show this one pheno cause I love her look and the sweet/sour aroma of sweethearts...
