I bet you're feeling GOOOOOD right about now! You won't have any time to build up any tolerance for anything that you have lol, given you have soo much of soo much on hand haha.

Nice job man. Pity I just got around too it :leaf:

Ps. I know you bud looks WAY BETTER than they do in the pics because of the HPS. Maybe toss some CFLs in there just to snap pics with??
And The box that you made for drying from the cardboard box....right down my alley bro. Hows it been treating you?

photosynthesis also declines big time when the lights are off and thats when my room gets so chilly :)
Lol I'm talking it damn near stops. I've read it's better to keep the room at like 75 all the time rather than having it 75 and letting it drop to 60. Might now make a big difference if you've not experienced any issues bro. Just read it and thought I'd share :joint:

right on, not really much i can do about it though so no sense in worrying. plants seem to be growing well. i may put a small heater in there but not really sure. im not a fan of heaters in the grow room and neither is the old man whos house im growing at so its kinda a lost cause. appreciate the information though!!

Thanks for strolling through bro!! I have been well medicated since things started coming down a couple weeks ago, that's for sure..:) Its good because I had 2 different strains ready at the same time.. Then will have 3 more strains done when this dries up. The variety is awesome, because I end up smoking in rotation most days. Start with the Gods treat for a wake and bake, then some GWS or stinkberry during the day, some Kush after supper.. and the KO punch from the Chemo at bed time..:)

I will post some good macro pics as they cure up a bit. That cardboard box is awesome bro. Its been through like 4 grows now.. I usually hang the stuff I want to get a real good even dry on.. Not the quick dry stuff. Things dry up nice and even in there, and it doesn't leave a wet cardboard smell on the buds.

Fun is not exactly the word I was looking for..:P Fun was when I was a kid.. Not when I have to shovel every 3 hours. :wall: One time, I swear the plow guy was watching me.. Just as I finished digging out the foot of my driveway, and got inside and took my boots off.. That mother fucker comes by again.. Another 1.5 ft to shovel out. lol The next day, I was out cleaning the steps off, and I heard him coming.. I ran to the foot of my driveway, and stood about 2 ft out on the rd. Stood there leaning on my shovel, shaking my head. He stopped, and tried to wave me aside.. lol.. no way. I made that asshole drive around me. Score one for the good guy!!.

haha right on man i hate them fucking plow guys, make it 10x harder to shovel, shoveling the snow that fell isnt a huge deal but shoveling that heavy wet shit they plow in front of your driveway is a bitch!!

yeah, i have been doing all i can to not harvest early. im running out of room in my grow. but as far as having shoices i had my fruity chronic juice which was a nice heady uplifting high and then i had my blue cheese which was a couchlock sleepytime high. it is definatly nice being able to choose from different strains depending on your mood/situation.

i have friends who say "its all the same to me" they are just stoners though that only care about getting baked and dont enjoy the simple luxuries that we do.

Amen brother! I started being a connaisseur of sorts a few years back, being really picky with the weed I bought.. Some of my buddy's couldn't understand why I would turn down weed that "Looked good" but really I could tell that it was early, no swollen calyxs, things like that, and I knew it would be a head fuck/stress weed, that I can't stand. I always look at bud I buy (When I have to) under a scope before I smoke it, and try and judge what kind of stone it will be. A lot of the time I am right. Sometimes I am wrong...:P

about 6 years ago (this is way before i started growing)

i just couldnt smoke the bunk ass comercial pot that was always going around....so i quit.

about 4 years ago i met my lovely GF, she smokes....alot. I still pretty much stayed away from it.

2 years ago i started growing my first outdoor crop, loved tending to them and growing them...did alot of experiments with edibles and extracts, smoked verry little.

1 year ago i made my first order from the tude, set up a 400w grow tent and had at it, ever since then i have beeen smoking more and more. i love having great tasting pot around. if you hand me a bowl of brown budz, even if i havent smoked in 2 weeks i prob turn it down.

these days the flavor means just as much as the high to me. if i dont enjoy smoking it...i wont smoke it. im picky now lol

Variety is the spice of life. I always try to have 3 - 4 different on hand all the time.

Just got my loupe haha thanks for the idea! It's funny all the things that I think of....But all the things that I don't!
From now until I harvest I'll be checking out the buds I smoke :joint:

Yea bro, I've been feeling pretty good the last few days. Some quick dry testers are proving to be up to par. The properly cured stuff will be fire. I will be making some ISO oil in the next day or two.. Trim is dry, most cloro. gone. Should work out good. The stinkberry plant that was on the left side of the Scrog got pretty seeded, so we just cup off the tops, and I stripped the rest of the stems into the Bubble hash bin. Have probably 5 oz of really good (but really seeded) buds that are going to make some really nice hash. I love having some good oil & hash around to. It helps me along the way to stretch things out. A little nug, and a glob of oil goes a long way sometimes..:leaf: I'm a Joint guy, so I Smear up a zig zag real good, then add some weed. Maybe some keif if I have it... I can't wait!!!! Going to try and Pot Monster myself (what me and a buddy refer to as when you smoke too much, turn green, and puke) Hasn't happened to me in about 15 years.. and I smoke alot, so it will be a challenge... But I am up to it...:fire:

Still planning on posting some final porn, and dry weights. Probably in a few days, I will wait till I make the hash & Oil.. Take a few shots of that too.

Yea man.. Its kinda depressing how much Commercial weed I see, with clear trich's. I get excited when I find Ambers on weed that I didn't grow.

Just looked at the bud I'm smoking now. It's Blueberry with straight CLEAR trichs. I'm betting on the next thing I get to be the same.
Right now prices for single ounce of Blueberry & Jack H are 290/300..Knowing what I know now is a good thing...Just shitty beauase I know how often I've bought weed pulled to soon to add weight. I guess my old buddy wasn't really that at all....

Sooo.. I was bored earlier, and decided to make some ISO oil. Used about an ounce & a half of high quality trim (no fan, all sugar leaf) and a 500ml bottle of 99% [FONT=arial, sans-serif]Isoprop[/FONT]anol. This is some of the best oil I have made to date. No chlorophyll taste, and it hardens up like glass when not heated. Melts like butter to spread. Smoked that paper in the pic below, and was proper baked. Didn't even think of another joint for about 2 hours. Which is nice.. Usually its about every hour..:-?:joint:
