Seems most of the smacks around here are retractable! lol
Now about that fancypants microbrew.... :D
Sup peeps.
I have some updates to report, and for a change, they are... OMG.... positive!
100% survival on last batch of clones. Apparently I was just going through a slump. lol. Even more surprising is that many of these cuts were what I would consider to be 'undersirable' shoots- from mothers that weren't prepped all that well, and not necessarily the nice, vigorous shoots high on the plant that I typically would like to take. But wOOt, not even the smallest hint of fungus this time round!
Also I picked up some new treats yesterday.
First off, a new type of bloom fert. It's locally produced and is called 'Cornucopia Bloom')- From Vermont, very very inexpensive, and comes with a recommendation from a [now retired] grower who now uses it happily on hydro veggls.
Also a friend lent me an extra hydro tray to do some experimenting with automatic drip. It's a small one, the EXACT size that would be ideal to veg under a New Wave T5 4' fixture, which I am too po' to buy atm, but covet, lol. So that's what I get to tinker with this afternoon instead of doing laundry and vacuuming like I am supposed to.
Gardening pwns housework. If only June Cleever had figured this out....
So anyway that's that.
Oh wait my bad it's not. I've been on a Rotenone campaign for the past week. I mixed up a litre of the stuff and have been HOSING my veg room with it. Stupid thirps. Plan is to knock them back hard and then hit the survivors with Avid... mwahahaha!!! DIE thrips! Going well so far.
no more super species eh? i believe that if all life on earth were extinguished in a great explosion, the spider mites in my basement would still be there to repopulate the planet. lil fuckers are invincible!
tell me more about the special vermont bloom fert?

Updates.
Tray table is in.
Very nice fit in the space, btw, for any of you who live in Victorian-era homes that have those little shallow closets in them...
I ended up putting the tray on its table in the bottom half, then lowering the top shelf, and creating a larger area to move the mothers 'upstairs'. It's nice. I stuck my MH400 in the top half for moms, and the MH250 in the bottom for rooted cuts, there's space UNDER the table for the propagation trays and a res or waste bucket.
Pics tomorrow.
Foxysox, that new room setup idea you have there is very interesting looking...albeit not easy on the eyes to decipher. Can't wait to see that setup! :D So, yea those T5s do look very intriguing when it comes to vegging new clones. VERY INTRIGUING! :D Congrats on the slips. :D Looking forward to the pics. :D
The Fog :rastasmoke:
Here's the closet as it is right now. No automation yet.
Just running 6 moms upstairs... have a couple smaller replacements for 'retired' moms downstairs... total # of strains is actually pretty outrageous atm. It's over a dozen. hahahaha I'm like the poster child for what ADD can do for an indoor gardener...
I also have a Black Indica smoke report to share.
I think I may have a new winner...
Smell is very spicy
Flavor has a pine-woods (not like fresh pine, but like if you pick up a handful of needles from the forest floor... earthy and musty, but still definitely pine) aftertaste, and my friend said almost a hint of CHIVES, lol! What I got was piney-earthy and he says piney-chivy. hahaha go figure. But he was chowing on steamed dumplings with garlic sauce at the time and may have been tasting Chinese takeout.
Okay, as for the buzz... this is the best part.
Effect is noticeable after only one hit. Surprisingly alert for how much of a calming effect it has. Happy high, totally functional, very very relaxed. Both of us have anxiety and we agreed it's dead on the money for that.
Oh, the last pic is a clone that died of suffocation from too much wiltpruf.
