Veg- FullGas for flower next. This plant is a challenge, worth the effort but still the difficulty level is really high.

Man the Oreoz and chemdog are absolutely rolling! Hell yeah!
 
You know, I actually got some of those 90 degree clips on one of those today. That strain would go crazy in one of your scrogs. It likes to grow outward before it starts to go up. You’ll love it man.

One of the issues that comes to mind running this new heat/stir plate is going to be heat loss. Either on the hot or cold side. I had to think safety on this one as it’s going to be exposed to direct heat source.
Think outside that old box and look at the auto industry for a reasonable substitute. Aluminum starter heat shields. Yep, I think they’ll work

I use this to wrap my headers on my drag car, this shit works really good too if that doesn’t work out for you, just a second option. Looks like you have it sorted, good idea.

 
Seems like I just made a batch of oil but I guess it's been about 3 months since I made some. At a rate of one brownie a night it takes a minute to go through a gallon. This process replaced a prescription sleeping pill. I get far better sleep with this method.

Only had one day off this past weekend so I at least got the flower decarbed and ground. Maybe I'll get to make the oil this weekend. Started off with 5 ounces of the oldest flower in the cabinet. Decarbing stinks, fucking stinks, so I put the little toaster oven in front of the drier which is under negative pressure from the flower chamber that gets scrubbed at the end. This helps a lot but still, decarbing stinks!! I used the wife's oven once. ONCE

Electric coffee grinder, no way these arthritis inflicted fingers could grind that amount of flower at once.

Money well spent! I've gradually modified what I try and do with my hands, every now and then I forget and Arthur reminds me I aint a young pup anymore.

New addition to the grow, Peanut Butter Breath x Cinderalla Man. Looking forward to this grow as Tengu seeds don't disappoint. Had the tallest one shoot it's tap root straight out the top. Never had any luck turning one arond but so far it's holding. That much enenergy this one will be the mother pheno LOL

Not ran those but I've got that DeathStar seed myself. It's getting cracked next
 
One in one out

FullGas makes here return to flower. I just broke up 5 ounces of this line to make my cooking oil with. Will have to change the way I cook with this as the base.
