My first Mephisto came down and are drying. These were the Northern Cheese Haze. Overall happy with the grow. They were very light sensitive and I had a bit of trouble keeping the main stalk in check with the methods I had previously used. The buds were not as big as previous plants but they were dense and beautiful throughout. I’m impressed with the NCH and glad I ran them first. I learn f a bit from them and it has helped my Forgotten Cookies grow. Only two out of the five got a bit of abuse but they all seem to be doing well.

So the reason for the post is something I’ve been trying to figure out for a bit. Transplanting/ starting DWC without taking up tons of space. Because I use the 8” current culture pots that go with my tops, only $6 each. I wanted a smaller area to stack my girls for the first four weeks and I think this will work. I had considered a big tote or custom box. But I really want the individual flexibility to move them around easily. I’ll be using one small pump and manifold to run six at a time. These are 5 quart buckets and seem to work well. Only issue I foresee is the water temp will definitely be room temp because of the volume. Hydroguard from the get go. My Blue Dream CBD will be hitting these in the next few days. Fingers crossed it works out. If not they were freebies.

And a strange story on the ablue Dream Seeds. So in March Seedsman had the CBD promotion where they were giving away CBD seeds based on volume of purchase. I bought a bit so had two levels to choose from. I picked Humboldt Seed Company Blue Dream CBD and someone’s Cannatonic, not sure who’s.
The seeds came in those little seedsman baggies and were labeled Blue Dream CBD. So I wasn’t sure if the were fem or Auto. So I sent an email to the Humboldt rep here in AFN and asked if he might have a clue what seedsman was giving away with his product. He told me what his seeds would be but he was not sure what seedsman was giving away and if it was even his?
If this is the case and this is how seedsman does business then I am done with them. If they are selling their own stuff and trading on someone else’s name then they are off my supplier list for sure. Can’t stand to see a hard working company have their product bootlegged and profited from their name. I have no issue with people making seeds just don’t sell it as Humboldt if it’s not.
