Yeah we saved out a few just going to get thru the orders now and then put some more up

It's all good my friend. I tell everyone I know to check your strains out.
You are making some great strains!

Same here... I told Rasta Jeff from Irie Genetics about @RocBudInc on one of his recent IG live shows and what experienced OG growers like @slowandeasy are doing with his genetics... it got his attention. Though he doesn’t grow or mess with autoflowers, he does advocate that smart growers should run autos between photoperiod runs to increase overall yields.

I can’t wait to grow some of these beans, they are now on the top of my list.

I can see the purple hues. Looking good. Mine was super purple pheno. Not that it matters. But it was really good, especially for a super purple plant. Many purple plants lack the buzz of other phenos, but Roc has some reslly good purple strsins. How much longer you gonna take? Peace, slow

I gave her straight water today for the first time. But I feel like she isn't done yet their are still some white hairs. I was going to give her a light feeding tomorrow and then maybe next weekend. Unless I come down with the virus and I have been in contact with multiple infected due to my job. My chest is sore but I can breathe with no issues.

I made some auto curing jars.
Originally I drilled both holes in the glass but 1 in the top is alot easier. The 1st jar took like 10 min but the last one took like 5. If you do it while the jars are submerged they shouldn't crack. Goes in on the bottom and out on the top. I tried to do both in the lid and had issues and it would use considerably more tubing.

I did NOT come up with this myself I found it on Youtube and it was a modded version of Derek Gillmans.

Badass job @Wwonka ! I’ve watched Derek’s video and wanted a scaled down version of it and am very appreciative of your post and link. I wonder how this would compare with the Grove Bag as well... Looking forward to reading member’s responses that have experience with Grove Bags.

Thank you again for the post! I learn so much here at AFN...

For me it was easy I already had the jars and tubing for my vape and Dubxxl had the video
to follow. My biggest issue was waiting till my daughter or girlfriend came over because my hands wont fit inside the jar and I wanted the air intake on the bottom of the jar.

just got the check valves and the Pump he recommended but I would get a stronger one than the one I got next time. it will be interesting in a few weeks when there are 8 or 9 jars. I already like not having to open each jar.

Please keep us posted, this is outstanding you big handed badass! :smoking:

Jokes aside though... This technique sounds much like better than opening and closing jars and continually handling your buds by pouring them out at times to release excess moisture, etc. Really excited to follow your results as you continue with your cure.

Thanks again Wonka and hope that you are doing well during this mess.

Cheers!

experience with Grove Bags
@Grove Bags

That is a fantastic device @Wwonka
@Slim Piggens - I used Grove Bags for my cure in my last grow and it was the best of the 3 methods that I did my home test with. I had a good yield so I dried 3 ounces of 4 different strain plants the same way and to the same degree of dryness. and cured them 1 - kilner jars and humidity packs 2- the freezer cure 3- grove bags - I cured for 30 days (the grove bags were done in 14 and didn't need burping or humidity packs - but let them cure all the 30 days) and I can tell you that the result was hands down Grove bags for terpene profile preservation, texture, fragrance, flavor and in my personal experience potency. Although certainly not scientific it was definitely noticeable to me. The 3 methods all worked well and I am enjoying the fruits of my labors - but I can tell you that I am about to transplant my @RocBudInc seedlings into their outdoor homes and to ready myself for that eventuality I went to their online store and ordered some more on their 420 sale - My customer service experience was every bit as good as the product - I had some problems with their new website and my order so I emailed their support and I was extremely happy with how they resolved the issue and treated me as a customer - I am a small customer but I felt like I was the biggest grow house in the country. I rarely have that kind of experience.

This is outstanding information on the @Grove Bags and your experience with @RocBudInc . Thank you for sharing your first hand experience with both Vendors. I really appreciate it. Stories like this help me and others make better decisions, especially with something so crucial to the process like curing. I’ve had friends that have f’d up months of hard work/$$$ by not respecting the drying and curing process. Every step of the process is crucial to a good/great outcome. Guys like slow, wonka and you have guaranteed that I’ll go with RocBudinc as my first forays into autoflowers... Great genetics, responsive customer service and just being a rad dude is important to me. I want to support cool people that are passionate, posts like yours help me do it the first the time.
