Pigeons420 Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

Sue how did you link to the specific post? Is that 'link back' under the 'thread tools' option?

And while I am asking questions on Pigeons journal (thanks mate) here's a somewhat dumber one.
How can I post a picture in a thread which is not one of my pics? I think I can scoop pics from any in 420 (?) but don't know how for some reason. Thanks!



Woo how many cunuks are on this site? Great to hear and thanks for bringing a smile to my face

I don't really know Burtski. We are definitely well represented by some exceptionally cool members though.

Cool members indeed. Seems a goodly percentage of my favorite companions are Canucks. :laughtwo:

Weaselcracker, to link a specific post, first click on or touch the post number, found in the upper right corner of the post. Yours was #621.

When you hit that it jumps it to the top of the page. Copy the address from the top bar and use that as the link. I'm assuming here that you know how to post a link, just didn't know how to pick up a post.

The fastest way to grab a photo from another post is to "reply with quote" the post that has the image, and copy the code for the image from their composition.

That read more confusing than I intended. Did you understand it? I can give it another try.
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

No that's perfect Sue. The first one re the link I'll have to double check that I know what I think I know. Didn't know I could click on the number. Wow I keep thinking I've dug through this forum everywhere and seen all the options but I keep getting proven wrong.
Re the pics. That's so obvious I wish I'd thought of that. I guess I was locked into thinking that I'd access them directly from the gallery somehow.
Thanks :)

Edit- ok I see. Figured out how to link to the post number. With iphone if I just hold my finger on the number some options usually (no idea why only 'usually') come up, including 'copy', which copies the post number.

You cover a lot of ground Sue.
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

That's what I tried to do the first time Weaselcracker, and two minutes into his gallery I knew it was a futile search. Then it hit me like a thunderbolt.

It's that guardian angel they assigned me. He's multi-functional. :laughtwo:

Alright folks!

Love the conversation! Learned something too. Thanks Sue!

I am preparing the FlowerBomb Kush for her final flush. Love what I'm seeing through the microscope so I expect a harvest around Sunday Monday.

All the sponsors here are great sources of seeds. Just check out the sponsors tab. I would recommend Herbies.

My seeds aren't from this site and not a sponsor so I'd rather not say out of respect for the community. :)
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

Totally understand that and didn't mean to intrude. I just can't believe how many strains there are these days. I lived in Calgary in 1981 and knew people that knew people growing Skunk and selling for $400.00 Canadian at that time. It was extremely potent. Of course I couldn't afford that but the people I knew had plenty of it lol
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

It's no intrusion.

I've heard great things about Herbies.

The only reason I haven't tried a sponsor yet is because I started using this particular seed bank long before I came here. So it's just something I know.
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

Well I just started back in March so I'm new at all this. Just bought for CKS so far and its WW that I purchased. I've read the Purple Kush from CKS is a good one. I may try that strain after this one. Thanks
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

herbies 100 % for me so far,, three for three,, and i thank them,, ,, like you pidge,, i stick with what i know,,,,, till i don't,,,:Namaste:
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

I've used Herbie's exclusively. Thinking about ACE Seeds for the Sativas though. Zippy, cerebral highs. Mmmmmm :battingeyelashes:
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

After looking at your soil recipe Sweetsue, I really wish you were my neighbor lol. Wow that's amazing, but I guess it would take an amazing person to come up with a mix like that. Thanks again
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

Had the same problem the other day. They've been having a hell of a time trying to fix it.

Jack elope pics today. Sorry I missed the other day. I've been renovating the veg room. I've decided that the veg room and flower room can be shared anymore. They need to be two separate rooms. So that's what I was doing yesterday!
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

So before my update I want to show everyone how my flush went yesterday.

I flushed for a couple hours, I got distracted doing my veg room and had multiple projects on the go.

But I took 3 pictures of my PPM meter at 3 different stages of the flush. As you can see my final reading was a PPM of 72. That's pretty damn good.

As you can see the first picture shows what I was starting at since my first flush. A PPM of 400

The I measure my tap water, it came in around 300. So I flushed with tap water until I was around 300 then switched to Reverse Osmosis water with a PPM of 16.

Couple flushes of the RO water and it was a PPM reading of 72. What peace of mind that that brings when I put her away to cure. When I pull it out and smoke it there is nothing negative on my mind about what I'm smoking. :)

UPDATE TO COME!!!
 
re: Rex Pigeons Flies the Coop & Goes Perpetual in 2015

Looks great Pigeons.
Now that I see the model number of your meter I can look up the manual and find out what sort of conversion ratio it uses to convert it's EC readings to PPM.
I was curious about this because without knowing the conversion ratio there is no way to compare my ppm to your ppm -so to speak. Ha ha I could say something dumb about that statement I just made by I'll refrain and forge ahead here-

Your meter has 3 settings/3 different conversion ratios. (I don't know which one you are set to. The 'standard mode' uses a conversion ratio of .500. Therefore the EC of the reading in your first pic, if you are in 'standard mode' would be a bit less than 1.
(0.992 to be exact -Since your reading is 496 - nearly 500 ppm)

I hope you understand what I mean and this is helpful. It's helpful for me (if you tell me which of the three modes you are set to!) because I can compare my readings to yours- mainly out of curiosity.

Hope you don't mind I'm pasting in the relevant info here. :)


"The only true method of measuring TDS is to weigh residue found in water after the water has evaporated. You know those spots you see on a glass after you wash it and let it air dry? That's TDS! That residue has mass, and it's possible to weigh it, but if you're not in a lab, it can be tricky thing to do. Therefore, we can estimate TDS levels based on the conductivity of the water since the hydrogen and oxygen molecules of the H2O carry almost no electrical charge. The EC of most other metals, minerals and salts will carry a charge. A TDS meter measures that EC level and then converts it to a TDS measurement. Since different metals, minerals and salts will be more or less conductive than others, there are different conversion factors that can be used.
ppm (parts per million) is the most commonly used scale to measure TDS (Total Dissolved Solids).
µS (micro-Siemens) is the most commonly used scale to measure EC (Electrical Conductivity).

ABOUT TDS and EC
TDS and Conversion Factors
EC: There is no conversion for electrical conductivity. (NOTE: The three EC modes in the COM-100 differ only in their ATC programs. The standard EC mode is KCl.)
TDS - NaCl: 0.47 to 0.50
TDS - 442: 0.65 to 0.85
TDS - KCl: 0.50 to 0.57
(NOTE: Most HM Digital meters use the NaCl factor. The COM-100 has the above three modes, which are user-selected. When converting EC to TDS, the COM-100 uses the non-linear scales, as they would occur in nature, thereby giving you more accurate readings than meters that use linear scales.)

Converting between different scales
PPM à µS: The conversion factor of the TDS meter must be known. Once known, the conversion factor should be multiplied by the TDS level. (NOTE: For the COM-100, simply change the mode on the meter. There is no math required.)"
