Wish I had something to take a macro of... Tent still isn't here, got puppies instead. I should mention that this is the result of a monstercropping. I have done nothing to this plant to promote bushiness. No LST, no topping, no fimming.



Like my super passive hydro?


My camera needs a lens cleaning :(

i love ladybugs!! must get mr kitty to get me some more.....

and..... i'm gonna guess.... broccoli?

monstercropping is when you clone a flowering branch (or something)?

Bunch of different veggies starting. The tall ones are kale and the short ones there are various basils. Yup, clone a flowering branch.

typically I use lens paper and lens cleaner but I have no idea where that is so I used 409 and a qtip. I assume windex would work.

Great pic flow! I am also quite the fan of creepy crawlies. My camera is actually a pretty old cheap ass Cannon Powershot. Takes great pics though. Lady bug found her own way up there :)


Radeon - monsters are fun! They look ugly as fuck while transitioning back to veg but once they are good to go they really blow up. Make great mothers as well.

yeah lol they are kinda creepy looking! theres a bunch of differents looks (i hesitate to call them "phenotypes") to them, will they retain their different characteristics? i mean the two ladies i have now are gorgeous so...

The clones will all be just like their mothers once they have grown out of their ugly stage.

My baby chickens btw are ugly as fuck atm and getting uglier by the hour.

So my elighter idea was a bit of a flop as I purchased the wrong temperature ones; these are too cool to quickly get full ignition but I'm sure the hotter ones would work. They do however work when it comes to slowly vaporizing bud and oil. Might be my new way of on the go dabs.

yeah i would say more hotter would be better for the tip wouldnt it, less build up due to burning off more?? cool idea though, i will be looking for another bingle used for hash soon, i like the idea of all glass

It gets plenty hot enough to burn off completely clean it just doesn't deliver enough heat to instantly start an ember when applied to bud. These tips are variable between 700-1200F which is great for vaping a dab of oil but I should have ordered the 2500F to replace my lighter.

The tip element heats up super fast but is also doesn't hold much heat so I assume with a dab your hitting 300-600F while it vapes off and once its almost gone it'll get up to 1200. 1200 is hot enough to start bud to ember but the tip cools down too quickly when touched to bud, the element is just too small and it's heat is immediately absorbed when touched to the bud. I I did manage to ember a a few bowls but it wasn't easy which really defeats the point.

Good for oil though.

Yeah... we'll see when my wife allows for that. Someday I'm sure.

So a very nice fellow forum member was kind enough to donate to me a Harlequin cutting. :) Been after this strain for a while so I'm a happy camper. For those that don't know it's one of the few very high CBD strains (~8%) so I have a feeling it could easily become my primary daily medical smoke. Super jazzed to get it rooted and flowering - blah what a long wait.
