Film Can From 77 To Today

3 finger bags ...
everybody searched for the fattest dealer with the chubbiest hands and best bud lol .. :p
We had 4 finger lids but I was only 135 lbs then. No fat fingers here. IT wasn't till I moved to LA from Eloy AZ I saw a scale and actual buds in 75. It was all TexMex compressed with seeds and stems, there was lots of pills and L and I survived somehow.
I don't recall seeing colas like we have today. Went to the Islands 82 for 3mo and was not impressed by the Maui Wowie. When I lived in Humboldt we had much better, again small buds.
I remember some Polio in LA and I bet these seeds are from that grow, wouldn't bet on it though.
 
Back then I use to get a kilo sometimes, can't remember the price.
Everyone new if a I had a long Army trench coat on I scored.
I sew in about a dozen pots to the inside lining.

Back when I was too young to know any better.
My Army coat could fit 6 rabbits in the pockets. I hunted daily or there was no meat on the table.
 
Day two after taking clones and bending. Adding a second light today and making a space so it can be dark when I am in the shop working. As soon as the clones root I will change out the lights and move to my new space I'm making.
GOt soil PH and moisture tester and it doesn't work. THe Hydrometer Thermometers I got fog up above 80% RH and are getting returned today. The PH and hardness testers seem to work as does the heat mat for the clones.
My AZ friend did send me the seeds and 10 are soaking now. I know allot more now and plan to do better from the start this next time, at least have some kind of plan.

Welcome to the forum sir! Wish I could get a taste of smoke from back in the day! I know at least one rookie grower who’d love to get his hands on some of those seeds ...keep posting that eye candy!

All I will have is the clones from 77 if they take. The seeds were from a grower friend of mine. I posted pictures of the big buds from these seeds earlier on post #20 when they were 2.5mos old. 3mo from seed to harvest and presently curin in jars.
Anyone who wants one of these clones is welcome to one. Give them a better life. I still don't know how these will turn out and my inexperience isn't going to or has helped any.
I put the clones under blue LEDS today.
 
I stared at those buds for a minute! 3 months seed to harvest? That’s pretty quick!
I was just licking my chops when I mentioned the seeds & snagging a clone wouldn’t be practical since I live on the other side of the country...

He is into small ASAP grows now for personal. What you see was pretty much the whole of 2 plants of mixed variety. Original seeds were from EU. Single Solar Extreme 500 LED
 
Getting more serious!
Ordered this today, as my attempt at making a enclosure wasn't going to go well and cost was going up, as well as some outdoor weather stations. Indoor one failed when it got too humid in the dome.

AC Infinity CLOUDLAB 642 Advance Grow Tent, 4x2x60 with Thicker 1 in. Poles, Higher Density 2000D Diamond Mylar Canvas, Controller Mount for Hydroponics Indoor Growing,​

Went to nursery and got trays that don't leak and a dome as well as a bunch of other meters and supplies. Put the blue lights on and keeping bottom of rockwool cubes at 82 and air at 79 by layering towels on top of mat for temp control. Ordered a controller too. Using my BBQ thermo which monitors tip and coolest spot on probe till my weather station comes in. I love this thing.
I have a inline fan from a Radon mitigation system I never used. I'll see how that goes before I get another fan.

Moms a little over 5.5mos old now. The canopy blocks most of the light to the dirt in the buckets.

My lights are too big for my flower tent. I'm making new hoods.

I just found out I have only one Veg and 3 Bloom IGrows after plugging them in all at the same time. There are no markings on the bulbs or ballasts to determine what kind of spectrum they are. THe ballasts are all the same. I have 4 extra hoods to modify if needed.

The clones are not getting any foliage watering now and am starting to open up the vents.

I have one seed from my friend in AZ. that broke ground this morn. I move it to the clone dome after the veg lights go out.
This is his plants after 18 days from breaking ground from the same seeds. Been on 12hr for a week now.

Looking good my friend. For future reference white is more reflective than silver foil. Doing great.

THX. i did have one branch touch the light one night and burned 3 leaves.
Interesting being Mylar is 98+% reflective I thought. Why don't they have white inside of grow tents?
I put t towel over the dome as well trying to keep air temp up to 75 at least.

Its something to do with tinfoil from what I understand. It absorbs light instead of reflecting. Silver in tents is a different surface. Didn't make sense to me either.

This is Mylar wrapped around the dome. Same stuff as inside of tents. It is a PITA to put on as it is. I'll figure out a better way to maybe attach it to the dome or you say I should paint the sides of the dome white? It was just an idea and I have a bunch of this mylar.

I wouldn't worry about girls that small. I just ment for further reference ,incase.
 
epic recovery of those '77s.
Longest i've kept and germed seeds was 11 years.

You really need to get cuts to people who can "preserve" it. If you find some magic/gold, you may want to submit a cut to a nursery like DarkHeart.... but all depends on how much you love it and want others to have it.
