that's a great shot bro! love the MVHV :)
Thanks dude, i'll make sure to get some clearer shots just before/after the chop down!

No matter who thought it up you've started a craze homer :)

Love the detail shots your buds are just fantastic looking, if it weren't for the fact it would take some explaining I'd make one of those bud shots my desktop background they are so pretty.

Stoney you deal with diabetes? well I am glad to hear have gotten you interested in subject of diabetes and it's relation to marijuana. With many ailments I recognize that in some cases there is no other choice but pharmaceutical medications but I very glad to hear yours is kept in check with a bit of discipline, planning and precaution. I honestly just had to give a patient I worked with a "farewell package" and a referal to a less... well another grower who unlike I doesn't help the patients on a non profit basis except for maybe food (hey government a sandwich and a glass of lemonade doesn't corrugate profit from my patients) I do not take a single granule of kif from the patients but this guy does it for (a nominal!) fee simply because I was tired of trying to help the patient when they would not help themselves. Her type 1 diabetes was aggravated horribly by her continued choice of poor diet and not heeding myself and other medical users warnings about the blood sugar effect caused several cases of her having to go to the hospital in the last 6 months.

But the moral of this story is if she had a little bit of discipline her perticular ailments would rule her life much much less. Self medicating takes discipline and often living a healthy lifestyle to help your body naturally aid itself against your ailment whether it is diet exercise or lack of exercise (laying off on the overexertion). If you already have the discipline for a properly balanced diabetic diet (which is no easy task I know I sometimes aid my patients around the home) then I have a optimistic outlook for your future of self medicating. Especially with meds like that hoe dang yummy buds :)

(Speaking of blood sugar mine is too low haven't eat today sorry if any of the aforementioned is a bit nonsensical I had to edit it several times cause I keep getting dizzy and losing my train of though. Time for dinner.)
Yes, that is exactly how i do it, discipline and healthy food. plus it doesn't hurt that my garden in downstairs so i run up and down stairs 4-5 times a day... hahaha but seriously exersize is a also the third slice of the pie..... mmmmm pie! NO PIE FOR ME! I am always outside doing something.... no matter what the weather is like! it's tough fighting the munchies some times with the dank buds but I'm gonna research that some more and maybe pick up some new strains. Thanks again!!

DAMN!!!!! That is beautiful!! EPIC pics!! Need to try and get something like this going would be awesome! (More jaw dropping please hehe)keep it up!
Thank you!!!!! I vow to keep your jaw on the floor with many many more pics to come!

I got master kush a few weeks ago and they were soo swollen just like those foxtails and crystally and had like a white green tint, some cool looking bud when cured well. Great call on waiting!

Thanks grandaddy! the foxtails have totally taken over all the buds.... there were sugar leaves on the outside before. now they are getting swallowed up by the swollen bud. I have harvested a couple twin sisters before but they didn't puff up this much. the strain is an Afghan Kush #47 it is the most potent strain i have right now. I can't wait to see what kind of yield i get. i know ya can't tell by photos, but with CFL and LED the buds are rock hard! Thanks for the rep... right back at ya!

yea, i put her in the dark tonight... I never did what i did before though. see i put her in the dark period last week and on her third day i checked her out and decided then that she wasn't ready. so i put her back in the flower box. she kept on growing through the whole deal so i figure it can't cause that much stress when i do it. I do need a better place for the dark period. right now i put them in an old metal storage cabinet that i wasn't using... it seems so dirty looking. i think i'm gonna paint it up this spring. I didn't put a new plant in the flower box yet either. i have a twin kush plant ready to go. i'll get out the big shoehorn tomorrow and stuff her in there. I'll post some "end of veg" pics tomorrow.

That stinks that she wasn't ready, I'm hoping Lucy is ready lol people told me she would be soooo i went with it. I'd love to see your flowering box, sounds like a cool project. I'll most likely be chopping tonight if you care to come watch :)

I wouldn't miss it!! i'm kind of curious of the wet weight but really i'm in it for the eye candy!

i like that scope, might have to make a trip to the shack, how much are they?
yep.... about $13. upside: uses standard AAA batteries. Downside: has a rubber eye piece that easily falls off, just recently lost mine. dammit!!!! I suggest gluing it on.

similar thing for half the price on eebay:

p.s. if you do go to radio shaft, they also have this cool 3-lens magnifier that could come in quite handy for $9:

That's like half price even w/ shipping!!! great find. downside: uses expensive batteries. then again how often do you need to replace them?!?!?! i've had mine in for about a year now.... and i even use it at a flashlight from time to time. thanks for sharing!

I put another kush twin in the flower box today to replace the girl i have in solitarary confienment. she is in another one of my new wide containers and she is about 5-6 weeks since she sprouted roots. she stands in at 15" tall. here are some pics of her. she will have her first night in about 30 minutes.
