I let the flowers get super crispy and then roll/crush them on a tilted tray, let the seeds roll down to the lower side. I don't normally worry about the left overs. I tend to flower small plants or only dust a flower or two, so I don't have a ton of left overs to start with. The first chuck I ever did resulted in enough beans to feed the planet for at least two generations, I toned down significantly after that.

hah, I purposely just did one young plant in a 1 gal, and from what i've seen so far she seems pretty packed with beans. I will try that. Maybe just use all the leftovers to make some bubble hash. I've been wanting an excuse to get one of those little washing machines and try bubblehash.

100 ante to bad , 160 will bubble paint tho.

I’m really happy with my blue lab .
I like that it has a calibration reminder.
Or you could switch to mega crop, n stop PHing , it’s always right where I want it .

Mega crop is whats up. I just thought it was all hype and marketing, but I have a better looking garden on Mega Crop than I ever did running Nectar, GH trio, anything else. And I spend 1/10th of the time dicking around with it. Never pH anymore hardly, and its always good. I just feed an average regimine and I get results I like. I"m not saying i'm the best grower growing the best shit, I just am just personally pleased with MC results.

that ph thing is really remarkable, to me. Had to buy ph down my whole life seems like and now if I use one or two drops, that's it, lol. Tryin to use an almost empty bottle up, but don't need it. I see that dynagrow ad on here and know what run Megacrop off, and I can't hardly believe it. lol. There is no comparison, no matter who paid advertising rates.

I've been on and off of here recently. Did I miss some drama or did somebody find something wrong with megacrop?

I do the GH Lucas Formula and have done crops with the K.I.S.S. method of Lucas, using MaxiBloom, but I like the results with the liquids better.
I don't have to worry about too much, especially in DTW, but I mix my nutrients in 100 gallon batches and PH will drift as things sit around and buffer for a few days. The bennies I like to add also acidify the solution over time.
So I get to tinker with the Ph, It's fun.

No drama. It is said MC didn't renew their advertiser's agreement.
When Dyna gro first showed up,Megacrop dipped out.It seemed too coincedental TO ME and my tin foil hat went on,I even posted a nasty comment in the dyna gro thread to the effect of "Mc works..dyna gro can kicks rocks...." My first and only troll post. I was kinda proud of myself until,I found out they had nothing to do with the MC thread being locked and them leaving.

Megacrop works great and the price is fantastic. My only problem was that the first couple times I used it my plants stayed green all the way through flower and I think I could taste it. So now I make sure to reduce the megacrop to like 4 grams/gallon and switch to GrowMore flowering cal-mag with no nitrogen after everything's done stretching. It seems to be working out so far.

I go about 1.5g of megacrop cal-mag and 6g megacrop in veg and early flower, then drop the mc down, switch the cal-mag, and add 1-3g of their bloom powder for the rest of flower. It's so simple and cheap, and now that I've been getting the kind of fade I want, I don't think there's been any reduction in quality or yield compared to when I used dozens of bottles.

So I was kinda bummed about my hermie sour lime og male. Fortunately this will allow me to flower out my gojis. Gonna cross my fingers this time will work out. Goji has given me hell but I’m determined to get some f2s as long as I have living parents, just transplanted daddy so I can count on a decent food source and infrequent watering. Have a couple of pinesoul cuts I’ll transplant and put under HID. One way or another I’ll get Er doneB07688D0-DD0A-4F0B-B4A5-9329A458C457.jpeg

I am presently vegging Greenpoints Chickasaw Cooler, Cackleberry, Jelly Pie and lucky 7's along with Thug Pug's Banana Breath and Oni's Tropsanto (fems). All were started same time. The Banana Breaths, Jelly Pie's and Cackleberries are the standouts so far. The Banana Breaths are beastly, but Cackleberry is not far behind in size and beauty. These are going to be a pollen chuck with a Banana Breath male. I might try to keep a Cackleberry male for the next run.Pretty wild starting 36 seeds at once and dwindling down to 16 of the best to move forward with.

What is the purpose of trimming roots?
Congrats on the reveg BTW... :clap:

In the case of the pic , it’s to take a plant from a 10g pot to a 3g one .
A revegging plant doesn’t need 10 gallons .

But if you have a root bound plant it can be beneficial. When you plant a root bound plant , the plants roots will have “memory” they will want to stay tight to the center and not want to branch out into the new space as much . (The main feeding roots)
If you make 4 cuts (about the bottom 1/3 of the roots in 1/4s) grab from the bottom n pull to 4 “fingers” this will air prune them and promote new growth, in different directions.
(Edit .... you’ll want to transplant after that , not put it back in the same pot)

Revegging isn’t hard .
Recently
I’ve been playing with light cycles at the end of flowering , and now it is even easier.

funny thing is, I bet Megacrop will still have a slow and steady positive influx of customers and Dyna's estimated increase won't be as projected. jmho. But all water under the bridge by now.

I've pulled plants out of a flat to transplant into buckets for revegging, a couple of different times, with 100% success. I never put 2 and 2 together, that it may be beneficial to do so.
I will be testing this out again soon, if anything I'm growing is exceptional enough for a reveg.
