Lovin the black velvet

Nice..before I can see the pic

Before I could see the pic it says auraz -4 and nxt pic under it auraz-5

yea I forgot to update the file names in light room as I was working thru the sd card. I did a large photo shoot while I had the camera out, took some auraz, mac dragon glue, haole moonshine 3 and 13 photos as well but the others don't seem to want to upload, to large. Im going to have to figure out what size the forums allow and set lightroom up to shrink the quality specifically for the forum

 

[dragonsflamegenetics]

That looks phenomenal Jeff

thanks! the new camera seems to do a pretty good job, and Im starting to get the hang of how to use the different lenses.

yea, im excited to see the combo of black velvet with the cherry pie x mod mac moonshine added in. Three way hybrid of dankness.


Its funny to as I dont select for color - cannabis just is so damn beautiful, it can't help but show off for the camera.

i really think it's that red dragon father you used way back at the beginning of the moonshine line that was so damn dominant. he was a hell of a stud, and his progeny loves to represent. i know you used him for a lot of different lines other than the moonshine line, but that series really flexes that color shift. love stash did too, just not quite as heavy.

and yeah, happy plants love to show off for the camera. they're like pin up girls when they're real happy.

Hey Mister Dragon!
Mind if I tag your forum?

 

[ZombieRider]

Dayuuum that black velvet is a looker . Btw you could try raising the ISO and quickening your shutter speed to minimize any blur in the images. Almost 100% sharp but its hard af to get 100% sharp images in dark areas without flash. If you wanna post the image settings for us photo nerds that would be fun.

ill need to figure out how to do that lol. I have a nikon z50 I bought for my wife, but I also use it for the canna photos...still learning it...

 

[dragonsflamegenetics]

so these are with the "general purpose lense" z dz 16-50 mm saved as "small" format which seems like what it takes to get the forum to allow em uploaded

haole moonshine #3 - rounding towards home plate

 

[dragonsflamegenetics]

heres some with the 50-240/4.5-6.3 Lense

 

[dragonsflamegenetics]

 

[tobh]

dude your plants have a signature lean lol it's like the PNW cholo lean

the BMS BX1 I won POTM with at the last place has almost the exact same lean when i pulled it out of the tent. the love stash... sheesh. it was like a junkie after a fresh shot.

Sup! Sweet Camera! Im a Canon person myself but ISO stands for all camera's.

This dude has a good tutorial on the settings for that camera.

It has manual mode and I think ISO mode. Basically higher iso lets you shoot at faster shutter speeds and maintain proper exposure, at the cost of some image "noise". So in this case you would try raising your ISO a bit to allow a faster shutter speed and bingo bango sharper images in low light. Its a trade off though, the higher you go in iso the worse the image quality.

Some beautiful shots in here, damn thats a beautiful plant! Not sure if you can do it with that camera but focus stacking is where its at for bud shots since there are so many angles on a bud its hard to get it all in focus, thats where focus stacking comes in handy.

Hooooly smokers look what came in the mail yesterday.

I assume these are regs? Can't wait to get these goin! Super grateful for the opportunity to test these girls out. Thanks again @dragonsflamegenetics Anything with Deathstar is gonna be ridiculous lol.

 

[Nesta]

Zombie will do those justice for sure! Looking forward to watching that one!

yea Focus stacking is something else I want to learn as well! The camera has the capability to do it I believe.

Thanks growmie! And awesome, haven't done regs yet so this is gonna be fun. I hear they are 'sturdier" plants than fems...generally. Stoked!

 

[dragonsflamegenetics]

mac dragon #10- seeded flower by the cherry pie x modified macberry moonshine - this is the RDWC grown. Has the signature blueberry fuel terp that I love so much.

 

[dragonsflamegenetics]

Cherry pie x modified macberry moonshine #3 -keeping this one around a while. has the raunchy poo fuel fume pie terp thats to die for.

 

[Max]

They say plants put a lot of there energy into making seeds instead of bud but looking at the trichome development they have plenty of that in store...looks dank af.

 

[dragonsflamegenetics]

whose ready for another photo dump! I know I am!

Heres the Fire Og cut - fully seeded with the cherry pie x mod mac moonshine - rounded out week 12. This gal is fading hard in her 3-gallon pot - next run going up to 10s as they all fading pretty hard. reeks of gas and puppy breath.

well, as cycles tend to do - They come and go and come again!

The cherry pie x mod mac moonshine pollination cycle is officially chopped and harvested, and now drying, the room was cleaned and bleached, then I combined pots and filled the next runs pots. Im over the 3 gallons and upgraded to 10s...more root space and more time between waterings, and less plants. This run will be -

Pollination using my chosen Blackberry Moonshine bx1 male. I will be making my f2s, as well as bx2, and also I will remake haole moonshine, this time swapping the sexes of the parents involved. Instead of a male mod mac moonshine and the bms bx1 cut, it will be the mod mac moonshine 6% terps cannaessential cut and the bms bx1 male I selected. Ill also make some fun new crosses as well..


The chosen Male-

One of my other passions - Old cars and hot rods....


Been working on my 70-formula firebird.... got the suspension and control arms and steering all pulled off, going to the sand blaster, and getting them restored. spent an ungodly amount of time with a wire wheel and a wire brush getting the frame rails all nice and clean, and de scaled. Then put down a layer of rust converter to stop any new rust for another few decades, and then painted heavily two coats of chassis paint. Once I get the control arms, sway bar, and spindles back from the sandblaster, Ill get them painted with the corraseal to prevent future rust, and then they will also get two thick coats of the por 15 to keep em looking good. New control arm bushings get installed, and ball joints, after that, can reassemble! Ended up getting two-inch drop springs - Shes going to sit aggressively and look so much better...brakes and steering are pretty damn important so going all new components.

nice..I use these honeycomb strip it wheels on a drill work fantastic Jeff…and a little tip with the por 15 .make sure it goes on thin as if it doesn’t you will get tiny bubbles in it..I’ve moved away from por and using 2k epoxy then paint..the por is still good though dries like a rock lol.use a good brush as the pig hair will pull out of the brush and get stuck in the paint.you can thin it a little.I covered the threads on the spindles and taped it right back to where the rear seal goes behind the bearing on hub.this is 2k on my front k frame
