Here are the Tahoe Aliens:





I lost one. Does anyone know the term for when the stem shrinks from the dirt to a about an inch up the stem? It happens every so often, basically the stem at the bottom just shrivels up and the plant falls over and dies. Something about the cell wall collapsing.

Here are the Alien Rock Candy:



Fourteen of the fifteen popped. I'm going to dig up the one that didn't surface and see if I can help it along.

Here is a random True Og that I was gifted to me last week:



I got the power plant nice and shiny. I'm going to need all the power I can get here soon:



I pulled some onions from the garden for some salsa! These onions are SPICY!



Gunny is enjoying his Sunday with a little rawhide:



Have a great day everybody!

Without federal income tax, there is no way big corporations can be bailed out and our massive defense budget be funded..plain and simple..how can we pay for the military of japan and south korea and over 700 bases worldwide if we don't tax the shit out of every citizen of the US...Of course we will have many loop holes for the rich to get around this..of course..

nice plants btw lol..

From what I understand, 100% of income tax goes to paying interest on our national debt. I will post the link where I was reading this. If that's true then not one single penny of our income tax goes to the things we think it's going to!

That system delivers 5.5 kilowatts of A/C power with optimum sun. I average 40 Kilowatt hours per day, basically I can run four 1000 watt lights for ten hours per day for FREE! You know the BirdDog hates paying the man!

My buddy owns a solar company so I pay cost and we drink beer and install it ourselves. Residential solar is selling for around $4 per watt installed so if you want a 5kw system you are looking at $20,000 (5000w x $4.00).

would make sense..The government borrows massive amounts(mostly from americans) then spends every federal income tax dollar paying the people that loaned the $$$ to the government.

i had a company come over and give me a quote on about the same setup i think.. they wanted like 40k for the system.. told them to shove it up there ars! lol.. i priced out the materials and it was around 8k or something so basically they wanted 32k for a 2-3 day install..idk..i want to go solar but there is no way i'm dropping that kind of $$$.

Here's some shots of the octopus:







I up-sized my ducting, you can never have enough air flow. I have 16" coming from the unit going to a 16" can with three 12" ducts going to the rooms. Each room has a 12" supply and return. I leave the fan running and it creates plenty of air flow to run without a fan in the room (I have a fan in each room anyway).

I up-sized my panel and the wiring too. I wanted to make sure I would never have to run additional power: The 3 ton is on this panel also:



Here is what I'm trimming today. Death Bubba that I let go full amber:



This will be cured up right and pulled out on special occasions.

Here is a free seed that I ran as a tester, it's Critical Kush from Barney's farm I think:



It's a decent kush but too damn harry. She gets extra points however for her smell......awesome fresh fruity smell. Not a keeper though.

Here's the last one I trimmed up. For the life of me I can't remember what it is......and of course it turned out good. I may re-run this, I gotta go through my log and find out. She's awesome with the exception of yield (1/2 oz). I run all my testers in 1 gallon and go 12/12 from the get:



Oh ya, she's lighter colored than most kushes.....got some lime green in there, almost like a green crack. I grew an Afghani Kush a couple months back that smelled exactly like green crack.

Update! Just re-potted the Tahoe Aliens into 1/2 gallons:



Damn my veg table is filthy! I just moved all of the Girl Scouts and Bubbas.....time to clean I guess. That girl on the back right was stretched ooooout. I put here on the bottom of that pot and she's still stretching out of it.



Chunky lookin' Indy :D

Glad I finally caught this thread...one sick ass set up with the solar and a fellow dog lover...nice!!! I have to say thats a sweet set up bro and I also must admit that I'm a little jealous of your solar pannels lol...must be nice getting somewhat free power. Here are a few more dog pics to add to the collection. Peace

Wow....that first pic is amazing. The second also but you caught your pup in a great pic in the first, just beautiful.

As far as Bandog, you nailed it! I was doing some training and a couple had a pack of Pits and Mastiffs. I had never heard "Bandog" before. They had some specimen show dogs, Blue Pits and Cane Corsos.....my boy Gunny definitely looked like a hybrid between the two. They were the first to tell me I had a Bandog, good eye! From what I understand a Cane Corso is an Italian Mastiff, and your Mastiff dosn't look like a Cane Corso. Maybe you can educate me on the difference?

Thanks for the pics my friend!

P.S. What up JAWS, I've been reading your posts for a while!

A quick shot of a mutant Tahoe Alien:



I had a lavender a while back that was a crazy mutant. It didn't look like a cannabis plant really, the leaves were unlike I had ever seen. I thought about culling because it was too "leafy" and they were so bunched together that I didn't expect much. I ran it anyway, it yielded 1/4 oz in a 1 gallon as expected but it was amazing smoke....I still have it in the collection.

I also forgot to mention that I loved the Bobcat/Mastiff pic too! I have had several "wild" animals living on the farm throughout the years.
