It just doesn't seem that plentiful these days.:cool:
Shov: Eat your broccoli. There are starving children in China. :D
WT: Stop poking Rock and Shov with your Broccoli spears. :D
just imagine it,,, Brocolli Trees, shade tree by day, side dish by night!
Weedy, youre a trip as usual!
Shov, Weedy's right, brocolli is good ferya
WT, just been so blasted busy man, life,,,n keepin the ladies in rotation.
germin some NCDG and some WBxPP right now.
the last group of 3 widow clones pulled 160g's(5.5 zips) as a group
current group is 4 SNLxNH and 1 more WW (all clones) 4 wks to go.
i also have the last 4 SNLxNH clones in veg. for another week
i wanna try some new strains now but will definately revisit WW again.
i'll make 1 confession.
i have been in a constant coma-like state of bliss for the past 6 wks or so, since the big harvest. capsules n dugout-1hitter by day, multiple spliffs n binger by night.
wow, just wow.
oh yeah, and i just met a hot young chick, soooo, i'll prolly be around even less,LOL.
thats a quickie update, time to blaze another, who wantsa join me???????:pimp:
"time to blaze another, who wantsa join me???????"
I'm in.:jointsmile:
But, hold the broccoli, please.
Weeze
I eat it, I just don't want to... :mad:
Thanks for all the eye candy! yum yum!!! Pr
So as I have read and seen you were working with hazes. Well I'm currently gemanating my purple haze and I'm going to do in in a box cfl grow. Now my question is how tall was your biggest haze strain and what was the sMallest? And how was the smoke from the harvest?
many of Weedy's strains wind up pretty big these days due to the setup available. also I think it has alot to do with how heavy a sativa influence your particular strain is.
According to info I read, Purple Haze typically grows 100-150 cm tall (3.5-5 ft)
I think the important question is, how tall is your growbox?
That being said, I started with CFL grows and they are typically smaller grows due simply to the lack of intense light.
The CFL's provide 'light' and can even be chosen for the proper light spectrum, yet there really is no comparison to the difference in your plants happiness and yield.
I still use them for veg, out of convienince, and there is a huge growth jump when i flip them to the HPS/flower schedle, hugely different from the change I used to get with CFL-spectrum/light schedule change.
In my opinion, your box should try to be about 3ft tall. if so, your prepped for a decent CFL grow.:pimp:
also, in direct response to your Q about WH's different haze grow results, there are several Weedhound logs, I really cant remember specific results, theres been so many,LOL:stoned:
hopefully the hound will chime in with a qwik list:D
I just figured i'd share my experience in the CFL.:pimp:

hey Shov, maybe its a matter of proper preparation?Quote:

there are several options-
saute` w oil n garlic
add to marinara over pasta (a nice switch if you're a pasta fan)
oven baked with a nice cheddar cheese sauce n bread crumb topping (mmm yummy)
in a nice steamed veggie medley, but I would only do the florets for this.
throw florets in w your next pepper steak saute` during final simmer.
its a pretty good veggie to choose to eat-
Broccoli was developed in Italy and is well established as one of the major anti-cancer foods. Over the past 20 years, numerous studies have concluded again and again that people who eat an abundance of broccoli have fewer cancers of the colon, breast, cervix, lungs, prostate, esophagus, larynx, and bladder. Broccoli contains indoles, which can help inactivate harmful estrogens that can promote the growth of tumors, sulforaphane, which stimulates cells to produce cancer-fighting enzymes, and beta-carotene, another cancer fighter.
Broccoli contains some 3% of protein and is one of the richest vegetable sources of calcium, iron and magnesium. Moreover, broccoli is very rich in vitamins A and C, exceeding even oranges in the concentration of the latter.
hmm, i'm hungry, gotta go to the kitchen:smokin:
I didn't know that about broccoli!! Are spinach and brussel sprouts in the same anti-cancer catagory? Broccoli is not my favorite vegetable but I can eat it without the "shov broccoli face." LOL
