Where do you all get seeds from? I’m taking a crack at growing I decided. Is Royal Queen ok? Any better mag sources? Any general recommendations? I want to do this totally organically.

A few years ago my friend brought me some RQ fem seeds from Amsterdam
Not one germinated
Hard to get a refund
Personally I find seeds to be time consuming and you need extra space to weed out weak plants
I prefer clones and cloning the clones
I get my clones from a friends shop. I have seen clones for sale here legally but at $20-25 apiece which isn't bad. Seeds are a hassle, but I have also seen them for sale.
Inside, I use seeds from Mephisto genetics. They are all auto flowers. seeds are a pain but they don't bring in pests like clones can.

Berko: I'm sure clones from a buddy could be an issue , but from a reliable store? The ones I got from the dispenso were treated
I grew from seed for years. Decades actually. I'm convinced even the top breeder's strains are not as stable as advertised. Feels like a phenotype lottery.
Last few cycles were from clones sourced through established local breeders and have been the best grow's I've ever produced. I have literally hundred's of dollars worth of seeds accumulated that I likely will never use.
How’d you get the clones?

Welp, my crop is turning into a disaster recovery operation…

As it turned out my pH meter had been going bad. My water comes out of the tap at 7,6-7,9, so I need a fair amount of pHDown to get to 6.0.
Kept wondering why it took more and more chemical to get in range. Finally, about the same time the meter would no longer calibrate, my girls went from this

To this

Got a new meter and feed pH read 3.8 :eek::eek::eek:
Flushed the crap of them. The one on the right seems to have recovered but the one on the left is pretty much gone.
Moral of story - if your measurement instruments seem off, they probably are…
Ouch. Painful to see.
What do you mean by " a fair amount "of down?
I adjust my water from like an 8 or an 8.2 to 5.8 or 6 with about
1ml/gal of pH down.
My flowers seem to be happening now

Fair Amount depends on concentration
Using Mad Farmer Get Down I was using a tablespoon for five gallons of feed.
Then it became two
Then three
With this new stuff,
Attachment 497326
It’s about 1 drop from an eye dropper per gallon
0-55-0!!
1 drop /gallon doesn't leave much room for error
This is great stuff for a variety of flushes
Basically neutral pH is nice too

This is embarrassing as shit but I managed to break both zipper pulls off my tent lol. Can’t get those fuckers back on for the life of me. Anyone in southern Maine wanna get hella smoked up and help me fix the zipper on my tent?

I’ve replaced several broken zipper pulls by forcing a loop of parachute cord, knotted at one end, into the slot where the pull goes.
Put a little candlewax on the teeth and it will be easier to zip/unzip
I like to use a key ring as a pull replacement.
