sounds like a good idea karma. thatll b a shit ton of space princess. i was considering to say fuck strain testing for a lil while and just blow up a room full of known performers and fill mad jars. i think after my sputnik project i might. testers are fun and exciting and the mystery surrounding running unknown gear always interested me. i find myself always looking for the grail.. i really don't think that'll ever change. almost like a junkie chasing the dragon.. the urge never gets completley satisfied with something new always on the horizon. but if it wasn't for the hunter in all of us strains like space princess and boognish rising wouldn't exist. i really don't ever see myself growing 99% of the gear sold at the Tude or being happy spending that kind of money on seeds.

i'll always grow variety and love having so many choices. there comes a point in time i wonder i'll stop and grow what i have and stop searching.
Funny you say this because I am going to be doing the same thing. I had soooooo many seed runs in 2011 and my harvests reflected it. I will be running my Leia OGs with my next run and then back off for awhile. I may throw 1 or 2 in with something but I am going to try and do an entire room of one strain from now on. I did find a few keepers but most of the seeds did not make the cut. The from seed keepers so far are Jackberry X NYCD (purple pheno), Grape God, Chocolate Rain, 3 Plushberry phenos (purple, pink, and green), and hopefully a Leia OG keeper. I will add those to my elite cuts that I have had which are Blackberry Kush, Blue Dream, and 707Headband. I will still be buying a few seeds in the future but they will be shelfed. I looked at Attitude when they had their Lucky 7, and Sensible Seeds when they had the 8-ball promo, and could not find one thing to pop on.

I was layin down about to go to bed, smoked a bowl of walhalla, ended up finishing the rest of my transplanting an cloning. I cloned pineapple express and anesthesia that were revegging and put the bushes to flower. Then flowered 2 legions, and also the cloned the plush and plush x sour bubble I had in the fridge. They look rough but hopin they'll make it. ------------sadly lost my nl blue cuts in the fridge to mold.

I just made a new batch of coco. Man that shit sucks. But it pays off when all I have to do is water my plants. Im gonna do a bunch of transplanting mid week. Getting everything ready to move into flower as soon as I finish my harvest.

So what do those of you that have humidipacks think of them? I'm loving those things

Yeah Im running 3 tents now and each tent will have its own strain to flower.. That way I can have alot of each strain instead of a oz of this and that.

the humdipack im playing with... and the way i play with it... cuts at least a week off my cure time.

a quality herb with the right smell/taste profile, will be ready soon as it comes out of the "humidi-tote".

dry herb till crispy feeling + put in plastic bag one night + back one screen for a day or two + rest of time in humiditote.

^ a smalll tote with humidipack that i keep inside two plastic bags for ultra seal.

makes the herb the perfect type of dry too.... just like u noted karma. two weeks and done after the crispy stage. maybe three weeks total cure/dry time for me.

after i get the nugz where i like them, i zip lock them up & stash the humdipack in a clean zip lock till the screens fill up again.

reusable & two way humidity control & food grade ...whats not to like?

Karma all u have to do is add water n the coco expands. I bought a rubbermaid tote, long as it seals good and is dark inside it won't mold. I just put a 1/4 to 1/2 a big brick in (not the little bricks) and store the rest.------ will those humidipaks fix overdry buds?

The humidipacks add humidity or take it out. They adjust it to the perfect level. Buy the 62%. Right now only the small packs are available in that level. About two months away from the big ones being available. My girl had some herb that was too dry in the jar with a humidipack it became perfect. I'm telling u these things are the truth. Remember when grinders came out? I do. These are better than that. And they last for like 6 months.

Oh and Lastwood I didn't realize u were talkin to me about coco. I reuse mine. Today I reamended it. I have like almost 300 gallons of it that I add a bunch of stuff to and mix it all up. Lots of work. But I don't even own any bottle nutes. So I don't have to deal with that which is huge. So the wrk I did today was worth it

Interesting web site with Info copied/saved from overgrow.com
This guide contains hundreds of reviews of seed strains prior to 2005
Personally I prefer the database of information saved at http://en.seedfinder.eu/http://en.seedfinder.eu/
The Overgrow guide is okay but not very current. You're correct though with saying it's loaded with content related to older strain info. I wish there was a new site that had more up to date information of new and old projects, crosses commercially available and not.. Google usually leads you to the information that most would find adequate. Some member only sites like ICMAG or Cannetics have a wealth of information in the forums that can only be obtained by being a member, signing in and running an advanced search as their content is not cataloged by Google. Although the system isn't perfect the tools we have in this Information age we do live in are pretty damn impressive.

I discovered that I enjoyed that bit of work. And I expect it will be worth it.
