Thanks Grazz, I was considering Bubalicous, but after doing some reading, i'll prob go with Nirvana's Blu Mystic, which I have grown before, but they do it in an auto, which will be better for the UK climate, and flower across August, September. It should only grow 24" tall at most, and they have a sweet fruity smell, besides, i'm only thinking of doing 10, in pairs, scattered across the countryside, so if they are discovered, it looks more accidental then a "farm"...that's if anyone notices a couple of small plants in the middle of nowhere :)

I just want to move now, and start growing again properly, been given some trial seeds from this place: http://www.medicalseeds.net/

I have one of each of the following:
No Name
Prozak
Y Griega

Which happily enough have a flowering time all about 2 weeks apart

Just need the new bedroom now :)

I have literally just finished building a small, easliy concealed germination box, so I can get my seeds going now, without worrying about my wife's family helping us move next week. Had a great idea, went into the loft, grabbed a couple of my unused CFL's, one of the 240v pc fans,a cardboard box and some left over mylar, come on here to post it, pleased with my DIY efforts, and then you post this!! Actually I thought that someone, most likely you, would tell me off for using a flammable cardboard box, even with CFL's...guess you won't be.

Have you wrapped tinfoil around that strecthy headband?? I've had some strectchers, but neve anything like this. I put it down to strain or maybe not planting the seed deep enough. GUess you'll just have to bury it to it's neck once the roots have developed a llittle

Another good tip, is buy some wooden kebab skewers for next to nothing from the supermarket. Buy longer ones, you can always break them down to allow the CFl's to get close, but you can put them right to the bottom of the soil, I usually do this as habit when going from pellet to cup/pot, so there is about 3" of skewer above the soil, which should give a nice support to losely tie too. You can always put them in at a later point, and as long as you ease it in gently, you shouldn't cause too much damage (insert generic smutty comment here)

I have just put 3 seeds into rockwool to germ - Y griega, Prozak, and No Name (that's it name, lav x kush)...never used rockwool for anything other then clones, but have 100% success rate there, and 100% with seeds in pellets, so i'm sure they'll be fine.

Gonna give the No Name a short veg in DWC (first atempt) and then scrog or lst to fill my 60x60, and have the 250 to itself.

The other 2 will go in dirt, veg a little longer, and go under a 400, with 4 indi plants, that I haven't decided on yet

Serious need to up my feeding regime, I always have some pretty bad N def's by week, your's are so lovely and green.

Is that soil or hydro/DWC?? Also, that's the sort of full canopy I want in my tent this time, but worry about humidity. Is that clip fan the only circulator you have, with another exhuast fan obviously

I recently tried the G13 labs blueberry gum and was really impressed. Sweet as candy and had a nice high. Very sweet berry taste.

Thanks, I'll be looking to start some new strains in the new year, but want to work through what I have first, and what I know. Definite candidates are G13 Pine EX, and now Bluberry gum, cos I likes me sweetness. Other than that, I really want to Grow buddha's sister from Soma Seeds, who I think take the piss with their pricing, but if I only buy 2 from attitude, it's not too bad on the wallet. Buddha's Sister, is my Mecca. Between 18-24, my friends and I went to Amsterdam for long weekends 1-4 times every year. I was lucky, I had a few groups of separate friends, from different towns, who all wanted to go, so I went with each group. Oh to be young again. Anyway, as you can imagine, my tolerance got pretty high, to the point where the second day of the trip, buzzed was all you could achieve, and "wasted" was a dream, untill I met her. A foul smelling temptress, who I bought a gram of, just to keep the coffee shop happy, gave me something to smoke around my fav's, and was one of the cheaper budds. My mates hated me smoking it cos it smelled off "tramp nappies", but no matter how late in the day, and how stoned I was, it always pushed me one toke over the line. Sweaty forehead, uncomfortable in my seat, throbbing in the frontal lob....looking back, it's not too dissimilar from the early stages of an ecstasy come up (I am not advocating class A's, they are very very naughty, don't do drugs kids!!). Anyway, wasted as I was, I could not remember where the fuck I bought it from, despite much searching. It actually took 9 years, and my stag party excursion out there to find it, and what a perfect addition to the weekend. I just hope that when I grow it, it isn't a case of "never meet your heroes"

http://somaseeds.nl/?s=buddha there you go. It took me ages, cos there is somaseeds.net, and somaseeds.nl, 2 completely different companies, but these are def the ones I smoked, cos he refers to the specific coffee shop I bought it at.

If you are an attitude seed bank person ( i still haven't got round to trying them, but here much goodness about them).... https://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/soma-seeds-buddha-39-s-sister/prod_2491.html

Oh and Ace, is that 7 diff strains. If so can you give me the full names. eg is that grandoggy purple or whatever it is I keep hearing about??

Also, anyone used UVA/UVB bulbs??
Had a little read and decided to give them a try. I have a Black light/UV light from my uni days, which only had about 40 mins use. The bulb is ok, but loosing it's purple coating, and i'm pretty sure it's not the right bulb anyway. I'm gonna get a replacement bulb for £15, Exo-terra reptile bulb probably and hopefully my next grow will have another leap forward. :)

just watched this, for those of you who get bored with the sciencey stuff, that is just him proving he has done his research for 9 minutes, interesting, but heavy going. Just after 9:20 he starts getting onto UVB light and THC. I am buying an 18" tube, and a 26w CFL to go in my tents as soon as I have the money, and I imagine that I will expand that as soon as I can.

And Ace, no need to apologise, also abbreviated lol, I was just curious. I hate little yielders, so i'll dodge that, thanks. Think i'll go for:
G13 - Pineapple Express
G13 - Purple Haze
G13 - Bluberry Gum
Soma's Buddha Sister
Greenhouse Exo Cheese - x 2

Just realised I have 3 new strains that are only 24 hours germing, and already planning my next batch. They will have to wait till I find a new job though, can't justify the expense when I clone so well lol

Thank you very much for taking the time Hetty.

I have only bought seeds through attitude so far.

I have a wonderful collection of t-shirts that I have no idea
when I can wear. :0)

I am adding those to my list...I might wait until the freebies change,
as I just landed on a slew of Reserva Privada beans.

I will get this one, just to try the coffeehouse smoke.

Some harvest pics..
The main cola Bubblicious.. harvested last night
P1020732.jpg

a couple of the Jamaican tops.. jarred yesterday

P1020733.jpg

I still have the larger Jamaican and another Bubblicious to go
I'm not sure how everyone else does it, but I usually take the
big stuff and then go back again after a couple days to get the
smaller stuff.
