I think it's written on them. Three different pills. All monkeys. One covering its eyes another it's mouth and one its ears. That's if it's the ones I've seen.
I've only just started on the DN so I got a bit like a kid in a sweet shop lol
I've got a nice little collection started of a few different ones. I'm going to stop buying them until I've eaten the ones I've got. Which the way I've been going at them will be in a couple of weeks lol

Did you try those owls mate?

Not personally, I'll probably be saving myself for the Altern-8 do in Leeds next month (you should come mate, we'll have a blast).
But I had a few pals have some off me the other night, they did a half each and I got a selfie of all 3 of them messy 6 hours later.

Better than the Silver Bars and they straight piss all over those Blue Facebooks was the consensus.

On inspection I thought those Blue Facebooks were repressed from bits of old pills myself.

I quite liked those blue facebooks. I still haven't had anything stronger than those Punishers though.
I saw copies of those on ecstacydata. They looked like shit too. Dirty lumps in them and no teeth on the skull and they were contaminated.

Are there tickets left? I do fancy going. I'll have to hope it's not on one of the weekends I have my mum. She has dementia and I care for her to give my step dad a break because she can be very hard work and it's very frustrating but it's worse for her I guess

Are all your plants going on the same nft tray? It's not the best idea to put plants that require different feed levels on the same tray. Also differing flower times can be a problem too. Some could be ready for ripen and others still may need boost. It's a mine field really. If you're doing multiple plants in NFT they should really be clones from the same mother.

The SBR are, they should be ready 2-3 weeks before the Stardawg so I'm going to do the 2 clones in my DWC bucket. The SBR are pretty uniform so that should be ok, I didn't have anywhere to get clones when I ordered the seeds or any facilities to start a mother.

I was talking about it tonight though, mate reckons a mother would do fine in my DWC with just a couple T5's, that sounds a lot less more money and effort than I was thinking

The idea is a forum myth and a complete crock of shit.
Bud size and development has fuck all to do with light intensity and penetration.

Bud size and development is a direct result of auxin (hormone) distribution within the plant, an auxin called "Indole-3-Acetic Acid" (IAA) to be exact.

The auxin IAA is mostly produced in the apical (main) tip and decreases exponentially further down the plant, exactly why the main cola is bigger than the rest and exactly why the SCROG technique works like it does.



The SCROG technique enables the plant to have an even distribution of IAA across the canopy of the plant with nothing under the screen making all the buds the same size.

The Lollipopping technique does a similar job (although not as efficient) by removing the smaller bud sites that will end up as popcorn anyway and thus concentrating the auxin IAA into the upper/main cola and buds.




These are facts that we've known about since the 70's, when plant auxins were first discovered.

So look at what you state are the facts here:-

IAA distribution affects bud development.

SCROG distributes IAA evenly across the canopy.

So you know yourself that the plant can change where it distributes IAA in reaction to stimulus. Yet you don't think light and air flow, two of the most important stimulus for a plant will affect how it distributes IAA?

I've seen other people's larf, who didn't defoliate, I see the buds at the very bottom of my plant and there's a pretty big difference.

Have you tested it yourself or seen anyone run a reliable test?
