heres my super super caked out Old Family Purple #4. shes not a keeper because shes doesnt have a crazy funk to her. im hunting for terps.

 

[FooDoo]

my Old Family Purple #9. she was the runt and thats why she has the highest number. thought she would be my worst plant. she blew up once she got into the system and become the biggest best looking plant. then when the buds came in i did the pinch test and shes the only one out of 9 that has INSANE terps.

I don't remember my old log in information but man it's nice to take a trip down memory lane at my old pheno hunt.

I ended up giving away tons of free cornbread clones and then retiring it out of my garden but I sure do miss her

I guess Ill continue on with this thread while I'm bored during the winter.

The current room stats are

11x11 sealed room

with 5,200 watts (43 watts per square foot)
4 - 1k watt hps magnetic
2 - 600watt hps magnetic
30k btu mini split installed by me
12 head ultra sonic humidifier made by me
Sante Fe Dehumidifier
20lb co2 tank
Sentinel environmental controller

Switched to living organic soilless mix made from scratch by me consisting of

60% peat moss
20% Organic local Compost
15% Aged Premium Bark
5% BioChar

This is in 15 gallon containers. The only thing I add is neem meal at the lowest recommended rate via Down to earth recommendations.

Water only start to finish with maybe an occasional brew mid flower.

I don't use any perlite or lava rock or pumice or anything else of that nature. I don't use coconut water or rock dust or kelp or any other meal of that nature.

My current strain is a super amazing pheno of Archives Stink bomb that I found last year and have been rocking ever since.

We are at day 8 of 12/12

The plants were topped once and then I did a little LST on all of them except two because I ran out of hooks for my string lol

 

[BroScience101]

Today is day 10 and all the girls starting budding over night. I've never had flowers so early. All my hydro runs were 3-4 weeks of stretching and then finally onset of flowers. Really digging all my organic soil runs but I hope they keep stretching for at least another week if not more because I really want those big yields.

I'll snap pictures when the lights turn off because the magnetics mess with my camera but in the meantime here's my other favorite hobby...

Making water hash and pressing it into rosin

Fresh out of the wash 90-120u

Microplaned to dry. Only takes me 12-24 hours in a fridge. I'd never spend 3,000$ on a freeze dryer, it's just silly.

Stored in a jar it'll clump back together to form a rock. I had to microplane it again before pressing.

Hot off the press.

Ready for people to enjoy super terpy, clean, natural , extremely potent medicine

This was made with whole plant fresh frozen lower buds. The color was beautiful but the smell and flavor was just like grass or wet plant material. It took about a week for it to start smelling and tasting like my dry trim washes. To me, live rosin is all hype and just a way to be lazy and cut corners by not having to dry and cure your product first before turning it into hash/rosin

Here is me pressing hash made from dried and cured trim. About 14 days old since harvest. Still beautiful color and i only used a 190 bag as my work bag and a 45 bag to catch EVERYTHING in one patty. Full spectrum 45-189u

The 45-189u rosin. INSANELY terpy. One gram sitting out smelled like someone just opened an entire pound of flower. Just greasy delicious oil. I plan to enter it into some cups in 21 if public places re open.

 

[BroScience101]

So the girls are sleeping and all the leaves are droopy but I wanted to snag a quick pic to show they've already started producing flowers

I'll grab more pictures in 5 hours when they start to wake up and perc up right before lights on

So much to learn, I've only pressed flower.
220 deg for 3 min

I started with flower but quickly moved away from it. Too much nasty stuff can be on that flower that'll make it into the oil. Best thing about washing is pesticides and mold are all less than 30 microns so you can literally wash the mold away from your thc by not collecting anything after the 45 micron bag.

About to start day 11 12/12

Already at 3 feet tall

All the girls that got lst made a perfectly even canopy

Super bushy, each plant is in its own 2.5x2.5 square

Other then this strain being THE most fire and flavorful strain I've come across, my favorite characteristic is the pink fan leaf stems.

Unfortunately, I was quickly reminded why I personally, and a lot of the best OG growers on these forums, all left a few years ago. The ignorance level of the average user is thru the roof and well, I can find better things to do with my time during the winter.

Wishing everyone happy holidays and see ya on the other side . This account will no longer be used.
