InTheShed Grows Inside & Out: Jump In Any Time

Have they tested their system against gas chromatography to see how accurate theirs is?

Sorry to detail yer thread She'd
Lol

Not a derail at all! And even if it was...it's all great info!

 

[Chris Scorpio]

They talk about that, TLC (this system) and , oops HPLC

So pretty sure they have, but don't see any comparison

 

[Pennywise]

They say something about for the purpose we’re test for this is better than gas chromatography.

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Gotta have DEA approval for GC, not sure we can get that

Lol

I mean, for what it is it works great, especially for peeps who strain chase , test, or pheno hunt

I used it mainly at 1st for testing my CBD crosses. Get a base of each contributor, then see how the cross shakes out

Works well

 

[Pennywise]

I’ll be comparing several females of the same strain to choose mother plants.

What's with that last 10 seconds of the video where they say "heat the card before putting it in the jar for THC testing"?

What's with that last 10 seconds of the video where they say "heat the card before putting it in the jar for THC testing"?

There is a few options in the tests
They call them

Hot Prints
Cold Prints

Hot is basically decarbing the test flower for full THC and CBD levels

Cold gives a different cannabinoid testing and levels
A full test is 4 tests on one plate

They discuss them on this sheet

 

[Chris Scorpio]

I do primarily the 2ul hot print

 

[Chris Scorpio]

And......

Lol


It's fun to test and play with the system
Why ya need more plates at 1st...lol

 

[InTheShed]

So all in, what's the initial cost without spending more than you need and how many strains can you run for that initial amount, and how much does each additional 4-strain test cost after the initial investment? That is, if you know without looking it up I mean!

Save me some time tomorrow!

 

[Chris Scorpio]

This shows all the stuffs, full and just thc tests

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Easiest way to $$$ is like this

The kit has all the tools, the $150 kit, good tools, better for long term use, tools I guess is like $50, so let's kick that out

Now the liquid test fluid, and development powder will easily do 10 plates, closer to 15

So it's costing ruffly $8-$10 per plate if you do like I suggested or if you buy replacement stuffs

So you can do 5 tests per plate, so that's pretty cheap testing

I got the testing tubes online cheap. May have got pipets not sure

So once you understand the system, that will take a few plates, it's a pretty good system
I even had good results with liquid a d powder over a year old

For anyone who missed the updates this weekend, they are here and here!

And while I'm here, along with the Vulx comparison update, here is some of what happened on no-nap Sunday:

Almost exactly a year ago, you may remember that I took a cut off one of my potted lemon trees, scraped the lower stem, split it, and put clonex gel on it, and stuck it in some dirt with a bag on top. And left it alone:

It hasn't grown much, but today I transplanted it:

I also spent a long time thinning and shaping the vegging AK-47:

Look familiar?

One of the problems with having so many plants and often not seeing them outside every day is that I miss things like this...Ca deficiency on my Candida top clone:

Next time it gets 4.5g/gallon MegaCrop.

And last, this little critter scooted up next to me for a hot second while I was transplanting the lemon. It stayed still and stared at me long enough to get the picture, and then it vanished!

I hope you had a great Sunday. I went to a small Cinco de Mayo party and have learned that I still don't like fish tacos.

 

[Archiweedies]

Haha no fish tacos huh? Aww man sounds like some bad stories there lol.

I had a thought earlier, Shed. My BC clones are looking kinda....limp. It’s been hot here lately and they don’t seem to respond well to it. It could be that they are root bound and need a transplant. That’s entirely possible.

 

[InTheShed]

It got up-canned to 10 gallons two weeks ago and I was sure that was going to do the trick! I've bumped the feed to 5.5g/gallon and gave it two gallons today, and it's not directly under the light in the shed anymore. I also lollipopped it today and sprayed it with iso/water. Pics tomorrow!

 

[Archiweedies]

Okie dokie, I was saying my clones need a transplant not yours haha.
By the way I thought this was interesting lol

 

[InTheShed]

Oh, I thought you were thinking a transplant would happy mine up!

My experience with this AK is it does better with short colas and many tops rather than long branches and an attempt to get them to stack.

This at 6.3 ounces:

versus this at 4.4 ounces:

 

[Lowrider72]

Plants are looking nice shed!
Really like your training, strong plants.

 

[Amy Gardner]

Twin AKs!

I can’t imagine that there’s anything to like about fish tacos. Sounds disgusting!

stayed still and stared at me long enough to get the picture, and then it vanished!

Gorgeous! Well captured

At least you’ve spotted the Candida clone issue now... I’m sure you’ll sort it out
