Fyfe, you're looking good. I really like those fat leaves. I feel like my plants and yours are growing up at the same time, like they are in elementary school together or something. Keep in touch!

Morning Fyfe mate, hows it hanging?

Heres that LR2 that i grew last year after i was given a seed, 8.5wks of 18/6 from sprout-finish, under a single red spec 125w envirolite.

Finished about a foot tall and gave me just under an Oz dry, but you should get more because yours are LR crosses.

Morning londoner, Spot on this end mate, hows yourself?

thats a nice plant mate. did it grow like that or has it been trimmed back? those few bottom fan leaves are huge, then its just bud on top :lol:

to be honest mate, its my first grow and i would be happy if i got an oz beween my plants, anything over and its a bonus. it would be nice to get about 2 or 3 oz though to last me a while and keep me of this soap.

got a few pics from this morning i'l stick them up now.

Im great ta mate, gotta go work shortly though so thats bound to change :lol:

Yea there was the usual few yellowed leaves towards the end, so i cut them off for the pic as they didnt look pretty :lol:

But there wasnt that many leaves on it though, it had a high calyx-leaf ratio.

Wasnt that potent but the taste of it was great! Again though, yours should have more potency because of their genetics, LR and LR2 are notoriously weak in potency, but thats what these new crosses are supposed sort out!

Yeh i really need to get off this comp and out into the digger but its proper p'in it down. so my mood is likely to change soon to :lol:

I hope i get a lr and a lr2 just so i can see what there like to grow. to be honest mate, what isn't to potent to you will prob knock mew on my ass with me being so used to smoking soap :lol:

I really want to know what other strains are in there but no one knows. only the doc himself.

I think LR2 is potent, its better than most stuff Ive bought and Ive bought a lot of green! Lovely and crystally. Ive heard that the original LR is the real shitter, grows to the size of a lighter and its like hemp or something, crap basically,so I hope you havnt got any of those in your grow. Im a big LR2 fan tho!

Lol yea any greens great in comparison to soap, doesnt really matter what it is tho, your own grown weed will always be great, you got the, i grew that factor.

Anyway heres those oil pics mate. Theres a couple of different batches there, each Pic is about how much you get from a honey bee full of trim and a few lower fluff buds, with two cans of gas put through it, trim/bud still semi wet and ground only slightly.

When i do my next BHO runs after the next harvest, il do a little video and email it to you if you want?

What you do is mate, fill the extractor with your trim/bud etc, fill it nearly full, but not too tight in there, then screw the cap on and tap it on a table a few times to settle the trim down by the cap.

You see the coffee filter type paper in the cap?

The hole in the top of the my extractor doesnt quite fit the nozzles on the gas cans, so i use one of the adapters that come in the cap of the gas pushed into the hole for a perfect fit ;-)

Then when your extractor is full, youl need something to catch the gas/oil.

And something under to keep the bowl warm.

I use a pyrex dish as its glass and has a flat bottom which makes it easier to scrape the oil out, then i put that in a saucepan with some hot water from the kettle, this speeds up the evaporation of the butane, i fill the saucepan so the water line is just below the pyrex dish, so it just keeps it warm, if the hot water is touching the glass the heat can affect the potency of the oil.

Then just hold the extractor over the pyrex dish/saucepan of hot water, and squirt two cans of gas through the extractor, the liquid butane/oil after a few seconds will start to spray out the bottom of the extractor into the dish.

Be sure to completely empty the cans before removing them from the extractor, and hold the can on for 30seconds after the can is empty to hold the pressure in the extractor, then i blow through the extractor to get the last drops of gas out.

Then the gas/oil will start bubbling in the dish like its boiling, butane will evap at room temp, but the hot water speeds it up tenfold.

Then after 15mins or so the oil thats left behind can be scraped up with an old phone top up card or whatever, just dont use your cash/credit card as it sticks for ages :lol: then i just smear a drop or two onto my rizla and skin up as usual!

And remember to extract outside and dont smoke while doing it :lol:

mate your a star :bigjoint:

i dont like to waste things so any trim i get i want to make something out of, i'l get myself one of these and try it out when its ready.

Thanks for sharing mate.

so do you just out a little bi of oil on a skin with a cig in or do you add it to a spliff thats made? last question i think :lol:

HPS is in the cab now, woooooop!!!!

managed to catch the sorting office.

i had a little problem with my biggest plant, iv got them about 9 inch away from the light, its def not to hot for them (i sat with my hand under it for about ten mins) anyway it looked almost like it was swetting a little? it was a little wet on a few patches on the leaves? this was only after being under the light for an hour or 2.

when i woke up the damp patches have gone brown now :roll: there only very small but iv moved the big plant away from the light more.

i'l edit this with pics soon.

i think it will be more than potent enough for me queen, i think i will have at least one original lowryder, as its made up of lr and lr2's in the mixed bag along with un released strains. whether i get a female though is another thing.
