What's up all, any LED gurus enthusiastic about sharing some of that juicy info? To best understand my needs I will try make things as clear as possible as I am not just "looking for a light". I am trying a DIY, this will be my first so I had a look at the DIY section, thought I might go with something similar to what Mr. @greenkush created. Regarding all that, heres my first question, keeping the best diodes for flower cycle in mind, what strips do I get?? I've been about on digikey, but can't figure out what to go with? Second question, for a flower space of 1mx1m how much LED can I throw in there? I am thinking of covering the area by making a 80cm square frame out of aluminium and will need to know how many strips to mount to get my desired wattage, but I guess first I need to know what strips I'm gona go with! Hope you all having a blessed Friday!

Time for an update Not much has happened, as I had major problems with the Blueberry plant I kept all the rest of the girls steady just giving water and kept them all in 10L pots till I could save the Blueberry. I managed and so here we have al 4 girls in their final 20L pots, pulled a scrog net over them and shoved a pallet under them to help with the cold temps at floor level. Trying to save the Blueberry set me back a good three weeks, so they are only on the 6th week of the feeding schedule right now and thinking I'm gona push them till about 9/10 weeks. Wana get some serious strech so I can clear out the under canopy. Other than that, the 5th plant that was also a Blueberry problem plant moved over to intensive care, plus there was never meant to be 5 plants in this space.

What's good my dude. In this thread, following that statement I made, we kinda debate it a little. It's certainly not written in stone, have a look at what the other guys said and how we all brought up different points and opinions, from there it's all your own decision. For me, to a certain extent, it's just about a little thing called "biometics" or "biomimicry". Basically mimicing the systems and elements of nature, I don't mean seeds being put in the fridge, but rather the fact that seeds when dropped from the plant does not sprout immediately, they lay dormant in through a cold period (winter time) and only sprout when the heat comes back around (spring time). I've read about fresh seeds, as in straight from the living plant, are less viable than seeds that have been through a cold shock or a dry period, but I read that shit on the internet and I haven't done my own experiments to back those statements as facts, so I don't, but it makes sense to me.

Don't waste your money like that my dude. Save up and buy a nice light. I spent 5k on a 240W blurple and not satisfied, feeling like an idiot, now have to save up again to buy something better. Buying that cfl, even for one plant, will be the biggest waste of time money and energy. Stand back, give it some time, save up some more money. Learn from others' mistakes, being in a hurry and forcing things will not get you far. Saw the ones @Master_G and would highly recommend that if you wana start off on the right foot and save yourself some head and heartache. Blessed!

Yeah man I agree, the tent is also actually not the best for a grow room, for many of us it's the best option, but a solid wall with the right reflective would be muuuch better than a tent anyway. Clones are super easy, but it's definitly a trial and error process and each person has their preferred method, it's just a matter of finding what works for you! I am excited for some gorilla glue, I've heard some good things. Will definitly put a few in the shopping cart on my next order!! How did your lady turn out so far, any photos?

The buds - The one - 36g The other one - 67g I live near the ocean and all the sand is white beach sand with just enough minerals to feed the indiginous flora really and a few other real prolific plants, such as cannabis. I have a bedding that's composted about 30cm deep and I've added about 5 or 6 layers of compost over the last 2 years or so. Just to keep the garden alive really, have grown these two plants with no other ferts than whats in the compost and just water from the hose. They turned a bit yellow and then one day the leaves started to die back, there was nothing I could have done to save them, or well the one more so than the other, but I chopped both. They smell fucking amazing, almost sour fruity kinda smells, hard to describe they still curing and it's still changing. Anyway, this grow is done! Wish I could've pushed the flowers a little more! Will fertilize the soil a bit better and pop few more seed when the time is right. -
They sure do. I got a jar filled with all kinds of seeds from custard apple tree seeds to evening primrose seeds and there are a shit load of cannabis seeds in there too. When I pop those I usually get about 85-100% success, so I don't have any problem storing them in a cupboard. Mine are in the dark, cool, airtight sealed with rice, but they're "bag seed" so not always the best grows and I usually just pop them to keep myself entertained and harvest when I get a nice flower! What is that you growing there?

Hahahah gona let him chill in the bong if he promises not to fly down my throat when I pull the clutch! He's not a lady bug, although I have tons of lady bugs flying around, that is not one of them. I was curious, because I've never seen such a beetle. Had 4 big white squares on it's back and two long feelers coming from it's face. Looked rather majestic, even to the point that I was concerned that it might be snacking on my leaves or even on some of the other beneficial bugs I have around such as the lady bugs! The two girls came down about a week ago, buds weren't fully matured, but I was facing some troubles. Will post a pic of the buds tonight! -
Damn boooii, would it be too much to ask if you can store my seeds for me too hahah I'm just kidding brother, yeah with seed storage you have to remember it's not a peice of plastic, it's organic biological matter, obviously it's gona loose viability, even if stored "correctly". Maybe you did have some cup winner seeds laying around!
-
Thanks man! I guess the only reason I have is that the cold temp slows down biological activity, but the most important is that the temps are constant. Flux in temps will create moisture, but yeah rice is always good. I also got like 2 or 3 little rice grains in the airtight lightproof jar, that's another important thing, no light. I wouldn't recommend putting it in the food fridge though, not because of the food but you'll be opening the fridge often causing the temps to flux. Freezing them will kill them. If you think about it, in nature the plant drops the seed before winter and the seed lays and waits till spring time. Usually two or three months spent in "cold shock" before they pop when the temps heat up. Then again I obviously don't know how old the seeds are or how they where stored before. I have seeds in my cupboard too, all of them are probably still viable!

Best Rolling Paper in the Wordl? RAW Classic Review
Naughty.Psychonaut replied to THCSA's topic in Smoking Equipment
I always have a different pack, all I can say is I don't like bleached paper. Bought a pack of those glass ones way back, didn't like it at all. Have you guys seen this the tips have little perforations for easy bending and making the perfect tip, the pack folds out into a work station with fold out sides with a pack of virgin paper. what more could you ask for!? I know RAW brought out a pack like this, but OCB had their pack on the shelves closest to me first so that's pretty cool! -
I don't mind smoking some weed and not getting super baked, as long as it tastes and/or smells good. I wouldn't grow a CBD specific strain for myself, though as long as the bud is good I don't mind if someone else brings it to the party. As for the Sativa or Indica thing, I don't know. Maybe I'm not smoking weed right, but what I get from the bud I smoke depends more on the mood and energy I was in right before I smoked. If I smoked a straight indica right as I woke up I'll just continue on with my day, don't have time to be lazy and "get tired". Within the next two hours I would have smoked again. Sometimes I smoke smoke sativa right before I go to bed, if it's some super sativa shit I probably lay there with a goofy smile on my face for like 3min longer than I would have if it was indica, if I haven't fallen asleep already... I guess my answer is that it doesn't matter hahah!

Sweeet, got a Fem Inzane in the membrane seed from Ethos chilling in the fridge, in line for my next grow. Will be following for sure, excited to see what happens here! Plants are looking sexy my dude!
-
Nice man that's very exciting hahah I just saw your thread on the DIY build and first grow! Will be following for sure! I am trying a little DIY build myself, got some wood that was laying around, might get a frame out of that. Wana start popping seeds and cloning and wana do that in a seperate setup.
-
That is crazy! How did you get them to varigate like that or do you just graft from an already varigated piece? I've seen a varigation thay was white as chalk instead of the yellow, and it was more like streaks with streaks of green in between, buddy of mine got a cutting and it rooted and shot out green... bummer. I am looking at doing a few lophophora x pachanoi grafts soon, wana do it indoors during the winter. Will be my first graft. I've got mostly pachanoi all over the place, then a couple macrogonus, cuzcoensis, like one or two small peruvianus and couple of lophophora williamsiis. One that's pushing flowers and I hand pollinate them each time and get seeds every year, also got a few seeds a while back, planted like 50 and 3 years later I'm left with one hahah. Gona plant more soon and do Lophophora x Pereskiopsis grafts. Got a ton of pereskiopsis. Then I got two cuts off a mutant Brigesii Penis thing. Will add photo, you probably know it. Some call it a whales dick or a jews dick hahah. Pachanoi Macrogonus Cuzcoensis Peruvianus Brigesii Brigesii Mutant Dick Lophophoras The One Loph Baby

Awesome! You like autos? I haven't tried them, but should get the handle on these photos first hahah I feel like I might mess up with autos still. Did you build the led yourself? I wish I had multiple rooms so I can pop seeds, make clones and veg and flower all at once. Will get there!
-
We share that passion my man! You got any interesting Trichs or only the real makoya? Been collecting a few years after I got my hands on my first san pedro, now I got all kinds of cacti growing all over the place, most of them are active. Looking to do a few grafts soon!! Also, very nice indoor setup you got there, I seriously need to upgrade my blurple and get me one of those qb's!!!
-
Those are some colourfull buds my man hahah wow, what diodes are those again on the LED you running there? 2.36g/W is a fucking amazing harvest!! Hats off to you! Have you started another grow yet?
-
Thanks my dudes, this is my first proper (still to upgrade everything anyway) indoor setup and only my 3rd grow in it, still learning more than anything else. Actually made a few rookie mistakes with this grow that made me feel like an idiot, but I really do appreciate the compliments! I love a variety, although I've smoked a bud before and said that I wouldn't mind if all the weed I ever smoked was that bud, but I'm sure even if that was true it would become tasteless and boring after a while. @Live Canna what seeds did you pop?

Musical Genius Treat yourself and have a look at the video aswell! More Fire!

An update is probably way overdue hahah, picked up some problems with the two blueberry plants, created a different thread on it and paid much more attention there for a while. Turned out the problem was wrong ph causing root damage. Waited for the two problem plants to dry out then got them all flushed and the two with the problem I flushed with about 3L of fresh tap water ph to 7 on the dot. The others just got about 2L. Waited a good week for them to be bone dry again and then gave a top dress of calcitic lime, gave a 25% of recommended dose of calmag along with 50% recommended dose of molasses (still getting my AACT brewer together!). Because of the stun they're much smaller in size than the rest of the plants at the same age I am only giving week 3 of the feeding schedule and the rest of the plants just went into week 6 already. With the one SLH also at 3 weeks, but no problems! Will take a few close ups and natural light photos soon to show the severity of the problem on the two blueberries. Below you'll easily be able to see the difference in size and colour already, but they're on their way and starting to look somewhat better. Photo was taken 3 May, 16/17 days from last post. Back left - Cheese Back right - Banana Hammock Front left - Blueberry #2 (Problem plant) Front mid - Super Lemon Haze Front right - Blueberry #1 (Problem plant) It has occured to me that it might be weak genetics and all that, but I also think it's root damage. The lockdown made it a bit hard to get my hands on soil so to make my FF stretch I mixed the soil for those two pots with some extra coco/perlite and put a couple hands of vermiculite. The problem came in with the coco, it was a brick soaked in water with the wrong ph and I never tested it as stupid as that might sound, but I am sure that's what caused the problem... other than that everything else was in check so besides my coco error it might be genetics. Got more of them, will do another grow without the ph fuckup and see how that goes.

If you look at it from the biblical perspective, it's obvious the 1% will push for the vaccine. It goes hand in hand with the cashless digital currency RFID system and why would it affect them? Once you've reached the 1% you're working for the devil. Even some of the 2% 3% 4% and 5%'ers are so deeply lost in the power of money they use the whole "selling their souls to the devil" to make even more money and we're eating this shit up like cake. Hahahah anyway, if I'm told I have to get a vaccine, because it contains information that will allow me to enter certain areas, shops or whatever, will be the day I become antivax. I'll stop eating bread and grow my own potatos rather than playing the cards right into their hands...

Could not agree more! On a biblical note, the 5G thing is linked to the marking of the beast story. The whole, mark on the left hand that will ultimately identify us by Radio Frequency ID technology, thing... Been talking to the rastas and they starting to make some heeeectic sense... for some reason we like to think they're not very well educated, for someone with a business orientated attitude it might seem like it, but for people who have watched the world evolve and "grow" they have been sticking true to their roots, learning and living with nature our only true teacher and healer. If you say they're not very well educated, they predicted all this and if this was all part of a bigger plan, the smartest thing we could've ever done was turning away from technology and economics and being humble and greatfull for what we have. Giving thanks to our mother and not some "god" and living life for the reality of living and not competing in a rat race. Sooo maybe it's not about educating the kids better, but just differently and about different things. Even if this lockdown brings any positivity, I hope it turns people onto self sustainability. None but ourselves can free our mind.

@Prom That is the thing, how do we get from "I" to "we". Someone will have to take "charge" to get people to do things because people don't have their own initiative and a leader will just lead us to the same situation we're in now, and let's not forget the balance in life that makes for that one guy that will stab everyone in the back. For all the good there is just as much evil, they say? Sadly, this rainbow nation of ours boasts about it's rich multicultural coexsitance, all for shits. I see your point about needing some else to take over. I like that and I agree with it. I think many of us would like better leadership. Oh yes, someone will profit from the disease, that's for sure. That's probably the biggest reason I would say it might not be all natural.

I know a lot of information has come forward going into detail about what's being done and what can be done, but what concerns me is the information that has been exposed and then pulled back from the public eye. Leads me to ask why we know the things we do. Why all the videos with such "stunning information" is out there and it's all different? Like I said, I know nothing. One thing is for sure, I'll be wearing my mask and keeping my hands clean acting just as paranoid as the next guy untill the stories of people dropping like flies have cooled down. Hope all the peeps and their peeps are still in good health and keeping shit together!!
