    Its been a LONG time since I visited MP and lots of changes have happened in the intervening time. I'm growing under all HO T-5, Veg and Flower both, growing in Soil and Coco, using nothing but my own formulae of Organic Teas. Current flowers are at 6 weeks, here's a couple pictures. Pre 98...

    Since the flower tent isn't clear yet... I harvested a tray of clones from the ones in veg then re-topped them. I'll get pics when they are ready for the 12/12 switch.

    soo i want massive roots any suggestions

    I've been on the same quest.... More root structure = bigger "engine" = more uptake = bigger yield Couple things I've found.... B complex vitamins seem to be a trigger for root growth. If the tap root stops "seeking" it seems to trigger the smaller root structures to fill in the...

    Speaking of Bon Scott.... Did you know that there was actually a DEAD on vocal ringer for Bon Scott? Listen to a little known band called Rhino Bucket. hXXp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_q9Rok54xY&feature=PlayList&p=3362AACECB48B693&index=24 There will always be a spark of Bradley...

    Did someone mention color? There's actually quite a story behind this one. The blade made of modern high carbon steel but treated in a hybrid japanese clay-coat heat treatment. The guard and pommel are made from material salvaged from a farming implement, over 200 years old. Its real...

    It's just part of the interweaving stylistic form. Here's some photo's of some very sturdy knives made from high carbon Rail Road Spikes. It doesn't have to be fancy or rare to still have style & appeal. I have actually trademarked this design.... A SOLID skinner/utilty with a built in...

    Not to ignore your questions Painterdude but I wanted to share some other stuff... These are some different pics of simple leatherwork. For those of you familliar with it it's purposefully NOT 3d carving. The technique imitates older techniques as these items were made for re-enactors.

    This is part of it that can't be shared here. Any good tool has a "feel" and a "balance" that you can't appreciate from a picture. I spend as much time making them "feel" right as I do making them look nice.

    The wood you ask? Well there is a specialty exotic wood supplier here in California that actually supplies many of the other dealers of exotic wood around the US. They own several tree farms in South America and deal in import/export from other countries. They practice responsible harvesting...

    You folks are the ones that blow me away.... I've tried for years to get the stuff in my head down on paper... so far a 7 yr old could outdo my attempts at drawing and painting. I'm really digging the paper dress... I've heard of duct tape and such but that is so beautiful and delicate...

    This one was in NZ last I heard. Was made for a interesting Gentleman from So Cal. He was paralyzed in a climbing accident... so he became a world-class chef. He had Scottish ancestry and wanted a Victorian style Dirk for when he went to the Highland games. It's a 1095 carbon steel blade...

    Although I have made several "Home Made" venturi forge burners from black iron pipe and tweeco tips... and many shells from Reclaimed propane bottles. The one I use is a professional model from NC tool... I've had it for about 15 years. I wish I could show folks more but my makers mark is...

    More "Hard Art" Since my other post went without comment... I guess people here don't see this as a sculptural and textural medium rather than just its functional aspect... I made everything you see above by hand. The knife is 1084 high carbon steel, hand forged, hand ground, hand heat...
