Lookin good bro the jamaicans are looking awesome.

Thanks man, looking forward to trying them out.

Sweet shots Big Buddy!!! That lavender has beautiful buds... :cool How does she smell?

Appreciate it bro, the lavender is the strongest smelling herb I can find, for about 5 years now, this specific cut of course. It comes on in a few stages throughout growth, everything from hashy, to sour/tropical fruit, grapey at times, spicey. No fuel in this one though folks, sorry to disappoint, lol. And when its in the jars, let her sit for a month, open a jar, within seconds, your whole house is filled with the smell, my buddy almost got kicked out of his house when he opened a little jar i gave him to smell it. Fuckin 26 years old still living with his parents, stupid fuckers should have tossed him out anyway, lol.

Hey bb my friend,

your lavender looks better than most of the so called "elite super rare under water grown clone only (some act like only they can get u high:cash)" strains.

This is it man. Super sticky icky........:cool0041:

Thanks for the info broham!! Might just have to give it a go...one thing i did notice looking at the Roots Bloom though is that even without their booster they have added Calcium in there and believe there is a hair more plus Mg from their amber additive...might eliminate calmag/magic usage and some additional PPM, and keep it organic...

I'll most def have to look into the Mystic additives...

Think another reason your plants look so kick ass is your balance of grow/bloom nutes instead of either/or. I'll have to really start watching my bottles and adjusting accordingly.

Thanks again bro!!

Hey BB, Lavender is looking dank!!! Cant wait to see pics of the other girls too.
Just to clarify to True Grit, your nutes ratio you said you use 8 ml grow and 2 ml bloom in veg/ Per litre??? I thought this was per litre and not gallon. Sorry if I misunderstood.
Nice veg pics by the way. HEALTHY !! RB

Thanks man, she out does the vast majority of them too, and I can actually say that, as theres not that many clone only strains i dont have myself, lol. But she getting out around so to say, in fact I wouldnt be shocked if you started seeing the odd one of my cuts in ole cali soon.

Happy to give the info my man, i was just hangin out with dear a jon there for a bit, and I think I'm gonna start hitting the soil mix with a good dose of high Mg dolomite, as like I say, one of those things I dont do. Magical is a great product, and I dont find it effects the taste in any negative way, but you know, a chem is a chem.

Nice veg pics by the way. HEALTHY !! RB

If its the pura vida levels, then yup, max strength is 8/2 mls per liter of grow/bloom respectably. And once again, thanks bro, they dont all look healthy, well the veg is, but man, I want a truly good run like I used to have all the time, I know what I'm doing wrong, just gotta get my head around it if you will, hard to let those plants stay wet compared to what I normally do, very hard to bring myself to do.

just to let you all know......BB is way to fucking hard on himself...his not so perfect would be good enuf for 99% of the world.....i've seen his grows up close and personal since he's been legal and he does some magic......his runs of old were spectacular and his new ones are just as great.....hes had some major issues with root diseases, powdery mildew, etc etc...and has bounced back with a vengance every time....while times are trying....he always manages to put out the best i've ever seen and smoked.......he is truly one of the modest growers out there and in my opinion is one of the new age masters.........watching his progress as a grower is what inspires me to keep going.....which hopefully i can start up again real soon......cheers bud........and i know your gonna give me shit for this...lol.....but still ......you are great at what you do.....

Yeah BB, do think you are a bit hard on yourself for how stellar them ladies look!! Feel ya on the chem is a chem thing. Rolled by the store today and completed the Roots lineup and will give it a go since its already got some sources for mg and Ca added in the bloom formula. They also offered a nice humic acid additive. Only thing was the low N in veg, but I figure I can add some worm castings, and as you said add some dolomite if needed for the ca/mg if needed as i got some sitting around from the super soil.

Appreciate all your help bro, I'll be a reggie around here peeping how things are goin. Keep it easy bro....

That's exactly what I need... Some pungent dank even after the cure. Big Buddy, I was wondering what your curing process is and if you found certain strains to lose their dank odor after the process begins... :wondering

i find that if you leave your jars open for an hour in a dark place like a cupboard or something for an hour a day for about the first two weeks of the curing process...then just do it as often as you need to after that..is usually good........

Your far too kind my good man, and I will agree I'm hard on myself, but trust me, not up to par, gonna be nice smoke, but the plants are rather rough looking. Not the lav, but that was selective pic posting, lol. My 91 are really deficient, and they arent going to go as long as I wanted, but I have to admit, everything is finishing about a week earlier than usual, I'm kinda shocked by that, i think the titan is really good for speeding that up a bit.

Nice, I've heard really good things about that line lately, I'd love to see someone with your skill have a run with it. My store buddy is checking it out to see if theres any available up here in the frozen north, well, its more flooded here now than frozen, but still. Do you have access to a high N guano? I use a veg guano instead of flower guano going into 12/12, having plants this big is very demanding on N supply as you can imagine, might be a really nice way to take care of that for cheap.

second that. really some special herb he produces....

Thanks man, this next run is gonna be special if it kills me to make it that way, i can promise you that.

I've noticed a few that do lose the smell, but the quality of the run is the big things for smell. I've learned that just the slightest fuck up, especially during the finishing stages is the biggest issue. The better the run, I find the less the smell drops off. That being said, I've had a couple that never really went anywhere with a cure, spacequeen from sub was like that, tasted the same the day it was dry as it did after 2 months in the jar. now i love the jtr, so not ragging on him, that strain just wasnt my bag.
As for what I do to cure exactly, i let my plants dry to just the point where the stems snap, I dont like to dry my plants to the point where its actually smokable dry(that doesnt mean wont burn, I mean if you roll a bud that would normally give you like 3 js, and you get 1 puggy bitch j). I get them in the jars then, and after about 12-24 hours I open the jars for about3-4 hours to let the moisture come off the top. That first bit of time in the jar really brings out the moisture pretty fast, and you want to get that off. Then as dk mentioned, about an hour a day for a couple weeks, but it depends how dry it is, if its feeling quite dry, I'll leave the jars closed, or maybe just pop them open for some fresh air and seal em again. i dont like to smoke my herb til at least a month in the jar, though it happens of course, damn well gonna happen this time. If at the end of about 2-3 weeks, your buds break up nice and fluffy, not powerderised but still good and dry, stems snappin at all. They'll snap when yuo first put them in jars, but bend a little first if you time it right, well, the way i time it.

got dang BIG, that lavender never stops to impress me. just beautiful dizzank. cheers.

oh yeah and I am all game for this curing conversation taking place.

Thanks bro, shes the love of my life thats for sure, its killing me waiting for that batch to finish.

Wow,,, awe struck right about now!!

Haha, appreciate it man, I'll try and keep it looking good next time, lol.

Thx for the confirmation on the stem snapping or rather almost snapping before putting the dried buds into jars for curing... I've had 3 harvests and each time I've dried less and less... :itwasntme This time I'm def gonna try to follow your method as I also feel that if the stem snaps then too much moisture has left; I'd rather have a longer cure.

BTW I've seen and heard many good things about the JTR line... Someday I'll try some, but surprisingly I haven't seen it much in Socal...:character0180:

nice info on the curing. i have read so many different styles, some folks seem to get them crispy before going in the jar. I do admit that from my limited experience putting them in the jar when the stems are almost snappable seems to work better.
