Javadog's Next Adventure

Looking good JD!

Did I miss something...job?

Im sad that I lost my SLH re-veg.
Maybe I removed too much from them and they were too stressed, but I think The light was too close and not enough foliage to handle it.

I am very happy with the smell taste and the high.
Initially I thought the high wasnt very strong, and maybe its not much more than a medium strength and I do smoke more of it.
But its a different kind of high, you dont feel stuck in a chair or had spinning or heart racing etc...
But as a person that gets anxiety and has to watch the amount I smoke of certain strains I can say this isnt one of those!
The more I smoke the happier I feel.
This is uncured bud that hung for 16 days and was rolled while trimming.
2 days in a row I find the music louder and I am dancing around the house.

I wonder if seeds of this from GH or elsewhere will be the same?
This is the best bud I have smoked in a yr or 2, and I think its gonna get better with a cure.
I pulled this a week or 2 earlier than listed online btw...partly because I was out of weed,and partly because I dont want more sleepy weed.

Pulling early to avoid the couch lock is wise....CBN == drowsy

Very sorry to hear about the re-veg loss. This is an area that I am
still learning. (I fight hard for clones of everything, but I can, and
you would if you could)

I think that if you found that one you like as a clone at a dispensary (correct?)
then that would be the best place to start.

I bet that you could have gotten the name of the grower when you bought
it and there is a chance they still might know. (I was researching those
Mota Rebel breeds up-thread when I found a page where when someone
asked about one of the MR breeds someone else responded with the name
of the Team-Mota-Rebel grower that made that breed) You might get lucky.

As to the Job thing, I was turning to my job search. I got a phone interview
next week now and am "relaxing"now. ;0)

I wish I had taken clones, but thought a reveg instead. I burned it and over trimmed it.
The dispensary only carries clones during the spring to early summer.
I think Ill call them again and ask what they know about it.

Hope the interview goes well for ya!

I called the dispensary and they said they arent sure i they will have the cut again in March, and wont tell me the person to contact who delivered them to them.
He did tell me some other cuts he has and those strains are on their Bud menu currently...Cherry Ak and Purple punch so they prolly are still dealing with him

I had SLH as a clone 2 yrs ago I got from Craigslist from a pair of girls and it was great too, but might have been a different cut or my growing style brought out different characteristics.
they dont answer the phone anymore though.
Maybe Ill just order seeds....hopefully I get what I am looking for

I see no reason not to try.

IIRC, it was Green House Seeds that had the closest to the original SLH

Reminder to self:

Triple Purple Rhino
Triple Doja Dog = 91 chem x TPD
Triple Purple Pie = Cherry Pie x TPD
Dagda Mor = Hells Og x TPD
Ellcrys = 89 Romulan x TPD
TP Larry = Larry B x TPD
Purple Bayou = Rum Bayou x TPD
California Raisins = Grape Ape x TPD
Tea Cake = Mystery Cookies x TPD

(my thread is much quieter...this will be easier to find here ;0)

This will help me too lol

I still keep forgetting some of the ones I got from him.

Thanks for the link, I think Ill try some but still try for the clones in spring

Well, the males tent arrived today.

I am actually kinda pissed, as Amazon had it down as
to be delivered in about 10 days, and it arrived two days
later.

I prefer not to be surprised by Grow related deliveries. LOL

No biggie. I am already working to figure out how it will fit into the mix.

The man-cave is almost "half tent" now. :0)

BTW: I did get the Gorilla unit, with extension. I have to admit that the
newer LEC tent, an "Apollo", showed a light leak at a seal in the
first days of operation.....not good. I wanted this tent to be better made.

JD

I see lots of tents come with box written "Grow Tent" in bold.
Seems really stupid to me.

This is one time when it better to be on time than early for sure

The Gorilla Tent comes as a zipped up suit-case of sorts:


I maybe setting it up today....but the HEPA filter's delivery was messed up....Sears...need to move on....

Onward and upward,

I really get a kick out of water cloners.

If it is not so hot that I am getting slimy water, then I find that I can
get roots from pretty much anything, in time.

Case in point, I flowered an HSO OG Kush without a viable clone,
and I was not thinking to try revegging this one (not worth that IMHO)
so I just took a stick during the harvest:


Success!



Yes, it is not much, but it is more than enough to make a good start.

I am not even going to grow this out, but it does allow me to give it to
my genetics saving buddy.

JD

I used to make lotsn of clones when I had room to work.
I used 5 gal HD bucket cloners and 18 gal tote cloners.
sprinkler pipe and mini red misting heads.
I found that the water got warm eventually and some rotted.
What I did was a timer 1 min on 4 min off, and they rooted faster too but only by a day or 2 usually

Cloners rock when they're in a certain (water) temp range. Too cold and they take longer, too warm and you end up with slime/shit. If I'm in the 70-75F water range I'm good for 2 weeks and they root within that, then change the water to avoid any chance of slime, pretty well guaranteed to root any strain I'm running in 2 weeks. Gotta figure out a way to maintain that 70-75F range consistently. It's easier for me in winter as the cloner sits beside the furnace and maintains that range. In summer it's sitting beside the air conditioner which keeps the basement very cool, extends my rooting up to 3-4 weeks with some cuts. I run mine 24/7 just because I had a couple of those very expensive aero timers crap out on me so I don't trust them.

Same here for winter time and colder weather. Pump heated water and caused issues unless I added ice all the time, the 1 on 4-5min off made a big difference in summer for me

We seem to have the opposite issue, I'm too cold in summer and can get too hot in winter sometimes. Just the environment for me being in the basement beside my HVAC. For summers I'm thinking of building a small Styrofoam cabinet/container to sit the cloner in and keep the temps from getting too cold. For winter it seems to work Ok if I sit the res right on the concrete floor as the floor stays cold.

I tried a couple of those 1/4 cycle timers but both left me scrambling for cuts off my flowering plants. Have yet to lose a pump but the timers went off and never came back on again when they f'd up #$%! Could be just shit luck but the pump 24/7 hasn't been bad and more reliable.

Crazy thing is the timer I bought was $14 on ebay 5-6 yrs ago and never failed, but lost it in the move and cant find that brand now and most are $50 and up now so havent bought a new one.

When I first started using my diy cloner I thought it was great then diddnt work well, and realized it was weather change related.

I get Clone Kings.....at about $70 I think that I would have a hard time
making a 25 site cloner for less....I do the math and get to at least $40
or so.

I agree on the temp range Gro....I am just in a coastal desert and it is in
that range most of the year. LOL

The Summer will have about 3-4 weeks where it is miserable....for plants
and humans, but it is livable.
