I know what you mean about the bib! My jaw hits the desk daily looking at your guys threads! :D

Haha, I was prepared this time, I had my bib on!!! Homer was right, wearing it all the time totally has it's benifits! When people ask why I'm wearing a bib i simply tell them "Don't worry, it's for some dankity!" Jealous of your loupe, I have one of those 60-100X luminated weed microscopes...it's awesome if you're like sitting at a desk looking as one single calyx, but too unsteady to focus while looking at buds on the actual growing plant.
hahaha, meta: next time you're at the $ tree, go to the "arts and crafts" aisle toward the center, you'll find a magnifying glass set. three loupes for $1, you can't beat that with a stick. they're probably 2x or 3x, but you can combine them one over the other for truly bib-tastic shots.

and nice closeups abm! welcome to the MVHV club ;)

That was a great read ABM...looks like you got some tasty nug nugs. I also suffer from insomnia but the Nazi Police in TX make us nervous about growin outside. Would love to see what happens with the ladies outside. props

Thanks bj. I did get a nice little harvest off these ladies. Half went to my partner (in the grow) and the other half the wife and I are going to enjoy. The outdoor ladies are getting their asses kicked right now and are still holding up. I have 1 in a bucket that I had to replant due to high winds knocking her over. I just hope she makes it through the storm so I can eventually put her in the ground. :)

Sorry guys I wasn't able to get pics last night. My Green Crack was laying horizontal to the ground when I got home because of this crazy wind. I had to repot her and move her inside. Problem is now she is too big for my cabinet and I have to keep her in the middle of the garage! LOL

I still plan on starting an outdoor thread but I am waiting for the weather to clear up so I can get the yard somewhat decent.

Yeah brother, getting ready for a solid 2011 season!! I'm geting all amped up, gonna start germing my beans April 1st, give 'em a few weeks indoors then pop 'em out in this beautiful Cali sun...we're gonna be sharing some good times as the season rolls through, especially since you, me and Kush all know each other form the CFL forum, so we got insta support for the outdoor threads...when I start one I'll be over in the outdoor section a lot too!

nice love the bong your using same radiant barrier board as i did what size you box
I saw that popping into your thread! Nice.. I really need to work on my box over the summer. I am using an old entertainment center meant for a 27" tv.

Thanks man!n I will get this damn clone thing down. Funny thing is that the ones that I thought weren't going to make it ended up getting potted just to see what they would do and I think that I have saved about 7 of them. If they all do well its going to be a Green Crack summer!

Oh yeah man. I am just waiting for a couple more clones to pop up in the local dispensary and I am gonna get rock and rolling outdoors. I got some 5 and 10 gallon grow bags coming and will have some soil ready by the weekend. :)

As much as I would LOVE to do a guerilla grow I am way too paranoid to leave my plants out there for someone to find. That I need to constantly stare at them. LOL I really would like to do one just for the fun of it though. :D

Oh man, I wish I could help ya out...Yeah, maybe a guerilla grow is on order, but much like ABM, too paranoid, but for different reasons...If I could fins a spot where I could plant the sucker with some time release nutes, and just go back in the fall to harvest without ever having to visit it, thats the ticket for me! But all the land around me is either private or state park property, so I don't wanna fuck around when I can legally do my thang...but maybe..... ;)

Yup, I'm rocking some 30 gal and 45 gal smart pots this year, and planting in the ground also...Shit I might even throw a couple rubbermaid tubs out there too. Depends on how many solid females I end up with I guess...But I think I need like 40 cubic feet+ of soil this year for outdoors... :( I was gonna buy bulk, but the delivery charge is pretty high, but 1.5 cubic feet of Patio+ is 5 bucks, so I might be able to get away for under 200 bucks with all the guano and worm castings and other shit I gotta get.

Damn you aren't playing man. I wasn't going that big! Maybe 5 in the ground and the rest in 5-10 gallon pots. but I have to make sure that I have enough space for them to grow all summer..

Yeah, I was working with 3 'scripts, but one backed out...Now I gotta find another...I wanted 15-18 mature, but it's looking like it might be more like 12 :( "I swear officer, I didn't know those flowering parts were a sign of maturity, please don't write me a ticket, I'll cut 6 down" Is NOT what I wanna have to say come mid-June/July...I think my girlfriend said her best friend wants to grow here too, so that might be my 3rd, but I'd rather it be someone who lives on the property so I gotta research the legalities of my situation.
