So let me get this straight. You dip the buds into a glass of everclear?:-?
not quite :mrgreen: I grind everything up in my power bullet and put it in some glassware. I put the glassware in a pan or a pot (or use a double boiler) with just enough everclear to cover my skuff. I let that simmer for about 20-30m and then strain it and put it back on the burner at about 100degrees to let the rest of my solvent evaporate to make my tincture more concentrated but thin enough to handle and then i put it into a baby food jar and into the fridge. Sometimes ill even let it evaporate more while in the jar before storing it. Tadaa :eyesmoke:

Damn man those are looking pretty fat. My girls are 6weeks old so im right by ya there. IVe got some Church and a Bigbud cross (One solid cola).


I think there should be a contest, a contest that shows what kind of crazy shit can be done with a 150w light, ya feel me?

A contest starting in November where everyone start by clone (with a givin size profile), can have only 10 plants maximum and grown in any fashion (vertical/horizontal), involving any strain desired.

The one with the biggest yeild of dry buds (counting on the honor system) WINS!

Ill personaly make sure the winner ends up with an 1/8 of magical smurf houses, and im told these that around are extra magical:blsmoke:

OMG...im in!!! ill have clones by then i just setup my 150watt hps in a closeted area, wat about in veg tho, i also hav 4 32watt cfl's??

Everclear is 95% alcohol and 5% water. It kills everything. All you are doing is extracting the THC since your buds are icky. Your finished product is just the extract and whatever alcohol you left in it. :mrgreen:

Like to ask a question can the 150 watt HPS bulb or the 150 watt light HPS light that Lowes carries be used in a grow they look very simular.

Yup, a security light will definalty work, thats what im using right now as a matter of fact and i just cut about 2 oz of buds.

pretty sure there is no difference at all between a grow light and a security light exept marketying art.

uh yes it will i just took a little snipit of mine that I grew from a security light still in the fixture. I water cured it which I highly recommend makes yield smaller but potency is amazing..

I am thinking 16 guage is ok for wiring a 150W e-cono hps, but the 75C temp rating is too low, I shoulda used something rated to 105C. Since the lamps (4) are wired I am looking to "sleeving" the hot spots with insulated sleeving. We'll see.

I personally just dry it out asap, and throw it in with the trim and make BHO with it.

I would say between a foot and a foot and a half.
Way too far away bro.. my 150's are within 4" from the plant tops, your distance is governed by your cooling efficiency.
12" is approx the max distance you should aim for.. the closer the better.

Yes thats exactly what we all did and as you can see they work wonders y'all:)

Me too.....Ok, but may i make a suggestion, we all use the same genes!?!?
that way its a level playing field for all...or else i'm growing big bud again,heh heh.
I have 'some' spare FAMC that should still be plenty viable, and will give some of you guys a chance to try out my auto strains..i can hook up mistermicro with the beans and he can send em out to whoever wants in...sound like a plan?

lol. bagseed is all good...If it got you high when you toked, why the fuck would you not want to grow those FREE seeds??
if its from shitty weed, use it to dial in your growing techniques... either way you get some smoke :)


Ok Micro, i got your pm, yes i have beans bro, FAMC..I'll flow em over..
And doin another seed run in the next few wks, got one male saved for pollen, and 6 fems just startin to hit preflowers.
next crosses are (FAMC x FAMC2) (FAMC x Blubonic) (FAMC x Bigbud)

Here's a pic of the big bud harvest midway thru trim, grown 12/12 from seed as usual, in hempy bucket using ionics grow/bloom/boost....chopped 5days ago, house smells amazing :mrgreen:
