Doom's Laboratory Spring '17 highlights

Yea definitely. Been researching Scrog, topping, planning on pulling clones off each. Going to focus on better feeding schedules. No more evening watering, going to water in the mornings to reduce the chances of fungus and mold. Lots of changes for the better.

The data I’ve collected so far points to those four strains as good for my geographical area. Height wise they all met the criteria for stealth, yield, water consumption and a number of other things. I haven’t established a personal consumption value yet though. Yield wise they all surpassed my initial goals by 2nd grow or phase 2 because it just sounds scientific.

something I never addressed is why I do it. Pstd my therapist says and I agree. PTSD as early as 1986. Anyone’s childhood memories are schoolbus being escorted by Tanks and Jeeps with 30 cal raise hands? *me. Oh but more locked down school. Cool military aircraft landing at your school. Automatic weapons at every hallway. terrorist attack google if you must. Not to mention poorest school districts And the violence at beyond movies from gangs through my freshman of hs.

One joint and I can 5 finger death claw pincher punch it from a misery that is my angry unresolved issues from long ago.
my wife alone is pleased but I can focus on what is important in my life and live instead of be a zombie on prescription. I’m not going to die at the wheel late some evening because I had to work later than expected and the side effect of the rx put my body into a sleeping coma at the wheel. Not to mention the misery of coming off of the drug (which btw is not recommended to do alone) because it was not good but if food is more important or rent you do what you must and my doc gave me the ok. I’m pretty sure I was still experiencing horrible withdraw for a month.

Let me leave the soap box with this.
My life has placed me geographical where laws forbid it.
a racist platform that was unresolved by the USA as a whole long ago.

@bob31 R.i.p “the Hilt”, off to the burn barrel. Experiment ended after day 145. No significant budding, bud rot took hold of what little was there. I can’t complain the 19 grams of the sword are good.

welcome to the world. All four have emerged just shy of 24hr in the soil. WW is easier to photograph the others. maybe by this evening the camera will see the rest better.

I must have planted the BB upside down…I was looking in on the sprouts this afternoon and the BB root was sticking out! I carefully flipped in right side up.

Final wet weight for this 40" tall Sour D was 7 oz. I normally don’t weight wet but I’m curious how much bulk is lost after drying and curing. It’s not a pound but it’s the most I’ve every harvested from one plant so pretty pleased.

Thanks, yeah it’s just getting better and better ever time. Heaviest buds I’ve ever harvested, can’t wait to try them out.

Day 4. The seedlings have shed their shells (some with a little help from tweezers). BB has had it the roughest. Hopefully once the sun comes out it will start to perk up. Back into the bags(moisture domes) they go. I think I may just put them all in 3 gals cloth containers at 2 weeks…

Old Blueberry bit the dust today. Brought the young seedlings out to see the sun and may have accelerated BB’s demise. I’m starting another BB and adding a Northern lights.

I tend to drop seeds and then all the sunny weather goes away. Rain and lightning continues so I setup the tent again. Got the timer setup on a 18/6 light schedule. Here they all are this morning before the crazy rain.
