Woo! A break through!
Alphachem in Ontario sells to individuals.
Just waiting on the confirmation email for a total price.

And now I'll be able to reverse the sex of feminised seeds and make my own seed stock and start a little breeding program of my own : 3

$145.

Another two weeks, at most?

I'm really happy with the structure of these ones. After I have weights I'll know for sure but I'm feeling a new record.

The next six are due in approximately 4 weeks but they seem pretty small to me still. We shall see.

The purpling I think is definitely from deficiency.

 

[ahemait]

Well, one came down last night.

That's about half of her. I'm really feeling the weight on these ones. The 4-8 tops is 100% the way to go. Barely any waste in the form of trim, maybe first 2-4 nodes could be considered trim but they didn't even form really. The tips are bigger/longer and much better stacked than previously. She cannibalised most of her leaves that weren't coming directly from a flower cluster. Trimmed her 95% in about 10-15 minutes. It was great!

I'm going to hazard a guess around 40g.

I'm letting her sister go until 5-15% amber, which should be pretty quick. Noticed a few starting to turn yesterday, going to keep a close eye on her the next few days.

 

[ahemait]

So...her sister came down a couple days ago. Maybe 5% amber. It's the best I could do. It just doesn't feel right!

True story. Don't leave branches unattended on tables while trimming. It takes way too long to pick the cat hair off them after they hit the carpet.

I think I might have doubled weights with the structure change. I'll get numbers tonight. Everything is bone dry now :3

Sweet! Buds look nice, looking better and better. That's the kind of progression we like. :) Let's get some more bud shots

 

[ahemait]

Had shit to do last night. Transplanted the youngsters into their big pots as well. I'll get some shots of those.
My mother plants are out of control.
Ordered a 6x 4ft t5 fixture, should be here Friday. That will go in the veg tent and I can have all three led in the flower tent as originally intended.
It never ends : (

My clone mothers are out of control.

Also, purple carrots.

Fat buds! Still the l.a. Con?

La og affie aka afghan bombay kush, yes.

My t5 has a shipping delay so hopefully it shows up tomorrow or the next day. Veg tent is seriously under lit at this point. I need my mother's to beef up some for the impending grafting experiments as well as air layering.

I'm so excited : 3

This growing thing is really and truly improving my quality of life. It's just so much genuine fun and I haven't really been excited about much of anything for years.

Had a friend with his medical stop by today and showed him how easy making butter is. I dunno, this plant just breeds good feelings

 

[ahemait]

Woot, t5 showed today. Comes with 6 bulbs, got 4 cool and 2 warm. To my pleasure, they sent me 6 of each, 2700k & 6500k!
Pretty nice of them. Not sure if it was a screw up or what but, sweet!

There's a ton of purple vegetables, it's actually pretty neat. Purple beans be ready in a week probably.

I need to buy extra light hangers, I forgot I needed them >.<

 

[jipp]

beans yes thigmotropism. heh, its a cool word!

 

[ahemait]

beans yes thigmotropism. heh, its a cool word!

Thanks, I just learned a new word!

Got my hangers, time to put things up.
I think I might need a bigger fan, all three led in one tent is going to get pretty warm!

 

[ahemait]

As suspected, temperature in the flower tent went up 5-8 degrees C. I'm going to need more intake or a bigger exhaust fan to keep them in check.
I think it might be fine in the winter?

 

[ahemait]

The other garden is going well too.
