NIce on the hash man, something you made or got somewhere? That is gonna be a future project for me, I'd like to play with some IW hash. Right now this oil thing is just working so well, and is just so easy. Glad your having fun with the inlaws. My wife gives me looks and comments all the time when I'm on here and laugh about something. She usually asks what was so funny, but its not usually anything that is explainably funny....if that makes any sense.


Thanks WHo, I really think its at that level for sure. I just don't have pounds of material to work with like those guys! I'd love to learn and get into the CO2, sadly I won't be able to invest in the equipment anytime soon as its PRICEY!
If the damn frieght cost was not so much,Id send ya my 2 stage vacuum pump.
Bet you could have fun with that?

I hear you on shipping man, that shit is expensive!! My father inlaw actually has a vac pump for doing auto AC that I could borrow if I really wanted to. I might just hit harbor frieght and buy a little hand pump to play with. I don't really think I have any need for the vac but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt, and might surprise me.

Thanks for swinging by palmdiggidy, glad you were able to get some beans going again, and that the cheese cracked man. I know you've wanted that one for a minute.

Last night I took down 4-5 of my strawberries, 2 WW, one of the Sin's Og, and the extrema. The Sin's and the extrema were sooo frosty definitely some of the most I've ever grown. I gotta upload the pics I took still. The rest of my tray is looking good, since I took some out I added more in a another couple OGs, an SDG or 2, 2 CJs, and another PN. I've got a few more plants I'll be pulling in about a week including a CJ I didn't know I had flowering :). I apparently miss labled something along the way. Hope you guys are having a good week.

Well I took down my Sin's Og number 7 last night which was 1 of the first 2 to get flowered. It has nice dense buds, and finished noticably faster then the other plant put in at the same time which still needs 1-2 more weeks. I harvested this plant at 8 weeks giving me 90% cloudy trichs (just a few ambers and clears through out) which is where I generally enjoy harvesting. I was thinking the whole time it was growing it had a slightly lemony scent, with an unfamilier other smell being stronger. I'm assuming that other smell could be the "kush" smell, but these are the first genetics I've grown that had "kush" in them. Several years ago I grew a landrace afghan kush, but I'm under the impression its 2 very different things. Anyway these clayxs are totally caked with trichs. Now that i harvested it, I'm not noticing the lemon at all the other smell has over powered it. Here are a few pics of it, I can't wait to try it out in a couple weeks.






I figured you all might also enjoy this. This is the powernap oil I just made, the first picture is of the A wash and second is the B wash. Both ended up being almost exactly .5g, and it tastes and smells like lemonade skittles!!



Hope you guys have a great night, I know I am Its 7:10 all the time around here!

Hehe thanks guys. Hows everyones morning going?


After I scraped that PN errl yesterday I decided to evap the alcohol I've been washing my dishes with. It had been used to wash 10-12 times I'd say, and I had squeezed out some coffee filters into it. It had a very deep yellowish color before evaping. I haven't even checked it yet today but will be in a few hours. I'm expecting a nice return from the color. I don't know what it will actualy taste like cus its a huge mix, but there wasn't anything but decent oil in any of the dishs I washed so I'm sure it will be good. Its almost like doing a second wash/ filteration on some oil I suppose. It had been frozen and got filtered the same as my other oils did. I guess we'll see soon :). After thats done I'm gonna evap the reclaim I did on my rig the other day and use that for some edibles, I'm not even gonna try tasting it on a nail.

Wow I knew I hadn't posted on my thread in a minute, I had no idea it had been almost 2 weeks thats crazy. Been busy, but things are all going well still!

So the Sin's OG is delicious!! The taste and smell is completely new to me, and I think I've said before, has to be what people refer to as the "kush" flavor. I've noticed a little of the same flavor in the powernap as well. I havn't taken a pic of it yet, but I just finally extracted the 10g of powernap that was in my freezer for the last week. It turned out beautiful, golden yellow, and very tasty. I also did an extraction on about 5g of fresh extrema last week which turned out real nice. I don't notice it in the extrema buds, but the oil tastes and smells exactly like fresh cucumber. My wife doesn't normally like cucumber, but loves this oil and asked me to pop some more extrema beans since I didn't have a clone of it. I will be keeping one of these Sin's OG phenos for sure, I'm hoping one of the less stretchy ones I have will have the same flavor profile. I will be taking down another Sin's in the next week or so, and my first Platinum Delight in another week or 2. I love the structure on the PD, I'm hoping it doesn't need 10 weeks to finish.

All my little seedlings are a doing good, and are about 6 inchs tall. I took a clone of a lemon G the other day when I did clones, and will clone the rest in another week or so once they are just a tad bigger. I put my powernap male plant into flower the other day. I should be showing balls in another day or so, then shortly after will get moved to my bed room where I'll do the pollen collection.

I'll see about getting some pics of stuff in the next few days.

Peace guys hope everyones week is going well!

Cucumber? I would love to smell/ taste that. Damn man. Love the work you are doing these days. Better than ever. Here's to getting better with age huh? lol

And ain't it weird how we can know what others are talking about over the net. Talking about tasting that kush taste. I'm sure you are tasting it, and it's funny to think I know that, when it's all in type. Soulless print. Damn, now I'm trippin off how language is used to paint pictures, and how it's an art to use words well. I just smoked for the first time today and I'm feeling it. Hope you have a good one bro.

Glad to see you around.

I would love for you to taste all of this man. Capt."world traveling" Jig should make a trip to the midwest some time!

I'm trying my best to make sure I get better with time :), just like the herbs we grow. You being able to relate to the Kush flavor is something I've always wanted to be able to do. I consider myself a connesiuer, but I want to KNOW the variations better. I feel like I have a decent idea of the kush flavor now from these genetics, and from my trip to denver where I dabbed alot of kush oils. But I want to know the "haze" taste, or the "thai". I want to taste a real "skunk", and a real "blueberry". I think you get what i mean. This has been one of my goals for as long as I've been smoking (about 10years now, growing for 7). I want to be able to taste bud from wherever and be able to identify with the flavors and smells it has.

......snip.....I think I've shared in the past that I started using chlorinated tap water for clones, and seem to be getting roots a few days faster.
Same here, I don't even pH my 8+ water for my clones and they take. My problem is the heat ;/ I tend to lose from the heat. I also run a sterile reservoir. I've used both H2O2 and Chlorine. I use regular chlorine bleach from any grocery store. It's simply 3% versus the pool shock that's usually 6% or more. So you just use a little more.

Chlorine's oxygen dissociation curve will give you more activity in the 6 range. But since you don't swim in your reservoir, do you?!! LOL, it doesn't matter if you don't get maximum effectivity.

Anyway really enjoyed your thread. I'm hunting up new genetics after nuking my winter harvest ha! Oh and I wanted to ask your favorites? I gotta ask Beech about Shoreline.

Hey Curious Glad to see someone else having good results with the sterile res. As far as favorite strains, I ran the White Widow for along time, and will run it again some time. Its been a great strain for me. I've been pretty impressed by everything I've grown from SinCitySeeds. This powernap is great smoke, and the taste is fantastic, same goes for this Sins OG when it gets released.

Things are good Dank, sorry I havn't been by the thread man. I havn't been keeping up on most peoples threads, including my own sometimes :). But things are good, all my new seedling additions are doing great now, and are about to get topped, so some more variety going into the mix. How far along is your Sin's OG, I just harvested the second one of mine, its been flowering just as long as the first I harvested but really still doesn't look completely done. I only took it down cus one of the branchs snapped under its own weight, and the other 3 were bending over pretty far.

Man Whodat you may not be in a med state, but you sure have some nice variety of flavors going too!

Hehe just the usual going on Beech, living, loving, and dabbing :). My daughters birthday is this weekend so we are getting ready for that, I can't believe she is gonna be 4. So what did you use, you make some shoreline oil? How'd it turn out, flavor, smell, color? Put ya to sleep :)? Nice things about dabs is a little goes a long way.

Well guys I'm bout to watch Gatsby with the wife, and smoke a Sin's OG/white widow blunt. Hope you have a great evening too!

Hey there Jig ol boy! Anniversary of the accident was back in AUG., but the arm is doing pretty good. I'm still waiting on the ok from the Dr. to go back to therapy after that wrist surgery a few months back. I guess its healing slow, which was kinda expected. All is going real well here. My favorite brother, and his daughter came to visit this past weekend from OH which was great. It was his first time getting to see the new house, and city. He liked it, and we had a real nice weekend. I got all choked up when they left, I don't get to see them nearly as much as I'd like. He was very impressed with the new room, and couldn't believe all the smells I showed him. He doesn't smoke any more because of work but is very supportive of me either way.

I'm sure you'll have some very tasty buds man. I know you havn't been as happy with these last 2 grows as you'd like, but at least you've been able to complete them and learn a few things along the way. Now its just on wards and up wards!!

Hey tc.......where's the bud at man!? I feel like you chopped down several plants and I have yet to see good bud porn..it is very possible I missed it though:)

"I know you havn't been as happy with these last 2 grows as you'd like, but at least you've been able to complete them and learn a few things along the way. Now its just on wards and up wards!!"
Ah yea every one of my plants right now is doing horribly..tried to switch things up a bit in my soil. But its helping me a lot, get to check out some new deficiencies and different ways of tackling my new problems.....good luck to ya
