Those plants are absolutely rocki'n! I do a lot of that stuff ( organic natural shit) with my outdoor and have been very lucky as you can see. However, indoor has been another story. Indoors I have had mega pest problems both above and below the surface with home made soil.My question is; do you sterilize your soil? If so;how?

I'm hardcore about pests. I rely on mechanical means to keep my soil pest free. Before it hits your garden area.
Take your bag of soil and put it in an old pillowcase. Place it in a cooler or bin in an mess appropriate area. Pour 3 gallons of boiling water through it. Let it sit 10 minutes. Close pillowcase firmly, let drain. The pillow case keeps out adult bugs, the egg layers. I no longer get thrips or gnats. This soil can be stored indoors. Always sealed in pillowcases.
I use smartpots and I top my soil with a layer of weedblock landscape fabric, then I top with a 20:1 mixture of gnatgnix and diatamcious earth. It's labor intense, but I'm bug free.
I also spray spinosyn D , aka monterey garden spray, 3x in early veg, @ 25ml per quart.
I use heavy 16 foliar 3x in veg.
An I suppliment with bayer aspirin @ 325mg per gallon 3x in early veg, for healthy immune systems.
I spray nothing on plants after week 3-4 of veg.

Same here, couple more days. My trigger finger is itching though.
Looking good, as usual.

Ha I was saying yours are looking good as usual, I just reread that and it looks like I'm an ass.
My lights come on in a few hours and I will snap a couple.

I did not think anything about you being an ass......I just wanted to let you know Im cool with pics on my thread. It was pure interest.
Peace

Here's a few shots. The pistols really stay around forever on this strain, trichomes are pretty much where I want them.
How do you upload the big pictures like that?

The longer you let it mature , the longer the medicinal effects last. But she's frosty as can be. Very nice.

Chop day came. Took everything to 65-73 days.
Ultrabrite#5

Lime Skunk #5

Ultrabrite #1

And Ultrabrite #3 goes into the curing jars.

15 testers of a few new strains for CSI : HUMBOLDT
We have Chemdawg1xBubba, ChemDxUrkle, and Chemdawg1xUrkle feminized testers. Also running 3 UnderdogOgxUrkle for the head.

Your killing it

The CSI : HUMBOLDT testers are moving along quickly. Flowering 15 ladies in these 2 gallon grow bags might be a test of skill. Seems like a few are drinking alot.

I was gonna say your killing it, then I saw vs one beat me to it, but its true!

The CSI: HUMBOLDT tester run was a success. Had some nice phenos of unreleased chemdawg1, bubba, and urkle strains. Nothing super stand out. But I have lots of berry funk rosin from the run.

Did a full reset of my growroom. New fans, ducting, upgrades in ballast and hood. Complete disenfect, etc.
Built out a small 20g res and auto feed system.
Just flowering out a single plant under the 600, my keeper pheno of Ultrabrite
