Hit up Mitch @ Mephisto Genetics. He's pretty easy to find around here. Lots of freebies, free shipping and some mighty fine genetics.
Alibongo... Autobeanstalk.com... Castle Seeds... Mephisto like kracker said...Check out the seed bank review section to see personal reviews of members purchases. Also will help you decide who to go with.
Thanx! Boataya!
TwoPoint,
You are correct. I'm not worried. The higher heat coupled with the co2 puts me right in the zone. My aim is 85º/1500ppm co2, 45%RH. Sometimes I get up to 90º, but not for long...I simply turn a fan on outside of the tent. It leaches the heat of the sides and drops the temps 2-3º. The colas are totally beyond what I had imagined I was capable of. I'm spendding my time here comparing my grow with others and calculating yield. Of the four plants (the mutant should yield 3/4oz), my guestimation is slightly over half a LB. ...and I only need enough for my mom and my wife. jeez...
Day 61
My biggest, baddest girl, Butch, seems to be showing signs of PH fluctuation on SOME of the leaves. I have systematically raised the PH in increments, so this may be resultant of this tweek. I may make the slight adjustment back to the high 5's just for Butch. But this could be other issues as well, namely, Cal/Mag. Since we're so close to harvest, I'm not doing anything drastic. So far, I bumped the cal/mag a touch. Watching closely. My other big girl, Aggie, is a tough 'lil bitch, and can handle whatever I throw at her. Her leaves are a deep, rich green, like a healthy gardenia, tricomes increasing at a rapid rate and will probably outproduce the much larger Butch. BTW, Butch was my Ma's nickname when she was a barmaid in south Chicago in the 30's and 40's. The BIGGEST surprise of this, my first grow, is the mutant. Several citizens advised me to destroy her. I chose, however, to unceremoniously jam her in to a corner for observation. She's under 12" tall, all cola, and glistening. Named Cheryl, she'll be the first to harvest, which will be nice, because she's small and I've never done this before. Drying, curing, trimming a small plant hopefully will prepare me for the other 3 major producers. Unmentioned, heretofore, is Dani, RDWC experiment. I've absolutely beaten the shit out of her! she's 'tied off' in a corner. She simply got TOO BIG for the tent. I feed her leftovers, drip her 15 of the 24 hour day, smoosh her into her corner, constrict her width with grow wires...and still...she'll be the last to harvest, but I have a funny feeling she's gonna yeild as much as the other 3 combined.
Mixed my 'super-soil' today. Can't wait to do a 'Pop' style grow totally organic. I need to grow two more sets of arms.

The girls are looking great egg.
Do you have your own recipe for super soil?
I was plagued with fungus gnats when i went organic,they love rotting organic material in super soil.
Back breaking work mixing it,too.
GL with it tho,organic weed is a lovely smoke.

I've found a receipe here on AFN called super soil. Organics Forum. Of course I had to tweek it just a little. It's probably HOT, so ya fill the pots only 2/3 with the shit, and the top third with yer fave potting MIX (not soil). that way the roots are hardened off and MAY be able to handle the goodies as they reach down into the 'bat shit' goodness!
We'll see...I'm doing heirloom tomatoes in a big way this year...my kitchen is replete with seedlings at different stages. ALL my soil/hydro/organic tests will be on tomatoes. then I can adapt them to the girls.
