Is that a 5' x 5', or a 4' x 4'?

Still, it's a seed run in search of keepers. When I have a cut or two that I want to grow again, and I strongly suspect that will happen with this group, I'll go full Octo.

Ooh! The last Lemon Thai germed. Pretty good germ rate, especially for the older seeds, like the Dynasty wares and the Lemon Thai. I'm guessing those LT f3 seeds are somewhere around 5 years old. This thread will go a little quiet until there's something picture-worthy, or I do something stupid, and want to offer up a warning to others not to repeat the stupid. (Stupid from last time: 8 hours of UV from specialized t-5 UV tubes is about 7 hours too much.)

Germ rate, as of now: Pineapple Fields, Peyote Pancake, Blueberry Quintessa, Miss U Jack: 100% Lemon Bubba and Lemon Thai F3: 80%. Luckily Santero and Smilestyle have double your money back guarantees on their gifts.

Germ rates are 80 - 100% so far, except for Pineapple Fields, which seems to be slow (20% at this time). They are the oldest, purchased in 2013, I think. Could have been made a year earlier. The other 'old' seeds would be Miss U Jack and Lemon Thai, but they're cracking like nobodies business. Maybe PF is just a slow one.

I'm sprouting a few seeds today, as part of a multi-strain, jungle grow, seaching for keepers. It will be over in the Grow Reports section of this site.

After my last grow i realized I needed: 1. to do a lot more work on my grow area, and 2. some of that shit meant persons of unknown trustworthiness would be in my grow area. So I had to tear down. The work is now done (I have a water supply on the same floor as my grow, among other things) and it's long overdue for me to get my ass in gear! Everything I'm growing this time around was either purchased at Sannies Seeds, could be purchased at Sannies Seeds, or I got through a friend here on Open Grow. We have: Pineapple Fields - I popped 5 of a 10 pack years ago, and really enjoyed the grow experience. Since then, another grower here on OG gave me the 5 seeds he had left from a pack he had partially grown out. All 10 are going to be sprouted, and maybe I'll get that Roadkill Skunk pheno I had heard so much about. Peyote Pancake - Available at Sannie's. The only thing I know about it is what I read on the shop site, and what I read here. I'll sprout 5 this time around. Blueberry Quintessa - Also available at Sannie's. Again, the only thing I know is what I read on the seed shop site and right here. My wife and I have developed a taste for 50/50 CBD/THC edibles, and this will be my first attempt at a CBD plant of any kind. I'll sprout another 5 of these. Lemon Bubba - An @santerocreation with some promising genetics. His "sweet spot" was one of my favorites of my last grow. While I didn't keep any cuts from them, they were enjoyable enough that I'll continue popping Santero seeds for a while. Lemon Thai F3 - This is an @smilestylecreation, keeping the old Fusion Seeds genetics alive. I've wanted to sprout this for years now. 5 will be sprouted. Miss U Jack - This was a freebie @ProfessorP created, distributed by Sannie's Shop. It's Miss Universe #10 x a Jack Herrer pheno from the garden of Jack Herrer, himself! It's another I've had for years. They're finally getting into the lineup. It will be an organic soil grow. I'm ready to start Octopots, but in February I'll be shipping off for a couple of weeks on business. My wife will have a much easier time just watering than messing with pH and TDS meters. Besides, I want to have some keepers to put in those Octos. No need to have a shitload of some mediocre pheno. More as things develop...

Sannie should have a lip-licking Like for Gardenartus' pics.

In Colorado, reefer is pretty cheap from dispensaries in comparison to MI. I expect the prices to go down, but not very quickly. A HUGE number of towns and other political entities have opted out of allowing Cannabis sales — something like 80%. Detroit included, though they'll probably start allowing it next year, sometime after January 31. Most people have to travel to Ann Arbor for legal weed, at this time. This will keep prices up. What you would think would bring prices down has not — every household in the state can have 12 plants growing at any time. A med card gets you 12 more, unless you live alone. Even though people can grow it, they don't.

Two of the three dispensaries I use went both Rec and Med. Supposedly, the wait has been 3 HOURS!! One of those places has my favorite gummies and the lowest price. I'm going to see if I can get in there this evening and get some. If not, I'm going to do some baking. That's literal baking. OK, and some figurative baking. That kind of goes without saying, though.

Santero is the breeder of the future and always will be! Wait, that didn't come out right.

Fuck. Sorry to hear about this. Did you end up going to Portugal or did this fuck it up?

Already there and back, I would guess. What did you find?

Lower leaf? Upper leaf? More on lowers than uppers or vice versa? Looks like Ca or Mg, offhand. How many more weeks do you expect it to go?

I have two jobs and two bosses. One job is easy and pays well, and the boss always agrees with me (because he's me) - but there's only enough work for one day a week. The other is thankless, 90% drudgery, but they pay my health insurance and the other 10% is pretty cool.
