Ya, I'm not familiar with how heavy they actually are as I've never owned or used any before, but sheesh! It has like a $5 'packing' fee off top before even adding anything to the cart, so I just figured that would be towards the cost of shipping, and if ordering enough $'s worth there shouldn't be any extra fees... Most places if you buy $35-50+ of stuff you get free shipping... Guess that's what I get for wishful thinking eh?!?

May be a dumb question but I'll ask anyway...do you know/feel that they can be washable/reusable?? Cause I can wash and reuse jars over and over, as I have for years now, and at a fraction of the cost...it feels like anyway. I've only had to buy maybe 2-3 cases of 12 jars of various sizes over my growing career to date and still have extras laying around... Some just need to be washed, while others are a bit too big for the quantities I've been pulling, since I've been experimenting with running a higher number of smaller plants vs fewer larger plants...so, in reality, I don't really need to buy more, just need to round them up and wash em.

But, at the same time, those filled jars are currently stacked on a table station right next to the foot of my bed...and... There's been several times as of late that, in the middle of the night or early morning, I accidently kick/knock them over trying to get up/out of bed and/or trying to grab some later night and/or breakfast nugs...and that's both loud and disturbing at those hours ?

So, the ease and small (er) footprint of the bags, and the praise by you, Buck, and others on this forum, has caught my attention/interest.

I'll wait for your response before taking action. But, I'm thinking if they're gonna stick it to me like that on shipping, I might as well make the order and shipping worthwhile and double up on my order.

Just a stoner thought here also, and I don't have any kind of pull in either direction, but should I maybe try to contact them and try to convince them somehow of hooking us pHenohunters up with some kind of discount code? Maybe if we can get a big enough pool of people looking to buy they might bite and consider??
Give it a try man I keep going on there site and getting an order together and than never pull the trigger…I literally just made a nice shelf in my safe closet to hold my large jars and my smaller ones perfectly lol

The bags are 100% reusable. Another benefit over jars is that zero light hits the buds, assuming you don’t get them with windows.
It never hurts to ask for a discount

Switching from glass jars to plastic(?) bags goes against everything i’ve been taught about saving the environment ?

Also way easier to wash jars with everclear and make some rso but I’ll be watching to see how y’all feel about them in the long run. ?
Right, good point Athena...and I think that's one of the things that's been subconsciously holding me back from pulling the trigger also. I guess, just like with most other things, there's both advantages and disadvantages.

The bags, I feel, would be much easier to handle, more quiet (no clanking around), cleaner and much easier to store without taking up nearly as much space. And supposedly they burp and cure on their own, so a hands off after trim without worry. Sometimes the nugs get either too dry too fast or are too wet by trim and jar time, sometimes I get busy and forget to burp, and these things can and do ruin or at least hinder things sometimes.

I think I'm gonna try em. Considering they are in fact reusable, I'll make a smaller purchase to give em a trial run before diving any deeper.

I know, I keep doing that too, like with most things I purchase, lol! The glass takes up a lot of space tho and my place is cluttered as it is... Trying to declutter this bish!

Plus, with the jars, sometimes the lids don't seal properly and just pop right back off when you try to tighten it. Some lids go missing at times, so some jars are useless for this purpose. Won't have to worry about that either with bags.

Right on. And that's a good point about the light blocking. I'm always worried that the light coming out my tent while I'm working in there is degrading my nugs.

Ok, I just officially, along with y'alls input, talked myself into pulling the trigger?

If my grow store carried them I’d buy a couple and give them a try for sure…I’m sure I’ll eventually cave and get them lol

Damn, I didn't even think to check at mine... Too late now though, I already placed my order. Got 3 different sizes all of which would equal to holding a lil over a pounds worth of flowers. Came out to less than $35 after tax and shipping, so not too horrible I guess since they're reusable. And, supposed to be anti-static also so the trichs, in theory, shouldn't get stuck to the sides like it does to glass. Which should make for easier cleaning and reusing. Only one way to find out!

A few comments on the grove bags.

Be sure to grab the zipper and not the bag when opening. The zippers will pull away from the bag.

I was abel to "wash" with icewater while making hash and the little bit that was in there seemed to come out well.

The soft touch bags are nice and have a heavier zipper.

I noticed a CR labeling on some this last goround and they are heavier material and have the heavier zipper on them too.

I also got the wicket bags on my last order and would recommend those as well (even though they didn't have wickets, I'm too lazy to contact customer service for them). The 27gal were most useful to me.

I heat sealed a bunch this time too so we'll see how that goes.

4x4 is cleared out. Small tent got a cleaning. Plants got up potted...

Time to get fired up again!
IMG_20220415_202741423.jpg
Back (x3) are revegging AlienOG cuts. Front right and left (x2) are GorillaGlue#4 cuts. Front center is SourDiesel (x1) cut. And more (x1/ea) AlienOG and SourD in solos.

I'll probably veg these for a couple weeks or so, get some nice healthy roots and lateral growth going. Then take a bunch of cuttings for backups, and off to flower they will go!

These won't be enough to fill up the 4x4 for flower. So, l'll likely be getting some more stuff wet to go along for the ride. I have a few things in mind I wanna send with them this round. I'm not looking for any dudes this go, but had a couple stud muffins I collected from last round I'll likely use to paint a couple lowers. 10Fold S1, AlienOG S1 I'm thinking for sure will get wet, along with a few others, but I'll need to try to narrow those options down tonight before I get too saucy?

Ok, these are the current bean candidates to get wet next...
Screenshot_20220416-182535.png
... Shooting for a mostly in-house, Underground Chucker, run here...

Fem seeds I made getting dropped will be AlienOG S1, 10Fold S1, and Grease'sPieces(GG4 x PeanutButterBreath) [by HydroRed-3Thirteen] x 10Fold(GG4 x 9Lb Hammer) [by Jinxproof(F-Reversed)]... Really hoping this cross is gonna be a banger, and if so, I'm thinking of calling this one either GorillaPieces or MonkeyPieces, either works for me!

Reg seeds I made to get dropped will be WOMAC, which is=
(WhippedOranges [DoubleDose(GLO) x WhippedBanana(EnlightenedGenetics)] x MACv2(Capulator) [AlienCookies F2 x Miracle15]),

and SzechuanDon which is= (SzechuanSauce [MajinBuu x CherrySauce] (GhostGenetics) x (DonJohnson [Don 'Magic' Juan x PureMichigan F2] (Frim-FreakGenetics).

Regs made by @Buck5050 will be Magic which is=(MAC1 [Cap] x CandyMAC [idlewilder]).

And, the pollen(s) I'm targeting for use will be BlackLimeSpecialReserve from @Idlewilder... Thinking of hitting both the AlienOG and SourD cuts with this. AlienLimeOG/LimeAlienOG and/or SourLimeReserves anyone?!?!

I'm also considering using pollen from a studly ass dood of WaterMelonDelight by @Frimpong I found last run (as long as that's alright with you Frim?)
IMG_20220216_205208000.jpg
Small pot, lack of water, light, nutrients, and attention...hella cold environment...Mucho neglecto...yet still super prolific and very very impressive!! Most impressive dude I've personally seen first hand, to date!

But... Here's where I need some/the most help... Deciding on these...
IMG_20220416_183513804.jpg
The CherryMoonshine x ApolloBlues by @Dino Party (think it's got a name now, Moonijuana) which is singing to me...

But the BlackLimeReserve mixed with the BlackLightFantasy in the RainbowWigglers has me on edge...and the Crooner Cookies ?

All fire in my book!!

What to do, what to do ??

Honored brother ?
The honor's all mine brotha! I'm digging on that WMD pretty hard right now, awesome job pairing on that one?I was smoking on some last night and both the lady phenos I got get me ripped! Not only that, but the taste from the thick smoke that coats the mouth n throat and the smell that lingers in the room after exhale is top notch-primo. I usually smoke a different strain with every, or every other, session but I could easily smoke that all day long and not get tired of it? Thanks for everything you do, bringing that fire to the people!???

Love the sound of everything planned. Sour Lime Reserve will be dank. It might be cool to dust a rainbow wiggler with some blsr pollen but Moonijuana looks so dank
Thanks brotha! I was struggling trying to come up with a good gameplan for this round. But I was going over my entire collection last night, thinking about how I wasn't looking for any males this round, and came across the pollens you sent me.

Saw the BLSR and was like 'oh shit, this would probly pair nice as fuck with the GG4 and SourD!' So ya, I like the sounds of the SLR also... Now thinking more about it, I think I'm gonna like that one a lot!

Coming to that decision, using the BLSR dust, is also what made me throw the RainbowWiggler down when I noticed what the cross was and thought to myself 'now that shit should be some strong ass lime city dank right there!'

But, ya, Moonijuana looks and sounds so damn good to me! Then I saw the pack of CroonerCookies and went back to look at grow pics that have been posted of it and it reminded me how much I've been wanting to try that one too, lol. Shit's rough man!?

But I think I'm still kinda leaning a lil more towards the Moonijuana for this one. I have that RW pack, I still have more BLSR seeds and pollen from you, I still have original Slymeball seeds from Doc, as well as the F2s that I made from those. So, I could always do a limey-geared run in the future.

MACv2 F2 jar got burped last night.
IMG_20220419_070943275.jpg
Gorgeous frosty nug meats! Has that plum-y hash-y smell and taste that cures into a fine plum wine after some time in jars ? Love it! Hoping, and fairly confident that, the plum wine phenos will be more standard/common in the F3s as that's what I have been selecting for!!

This nug had a few visible F3 seeds poking out! It also felt a bit on the dry-er side tho, and I just got my Grove Bags there other day, so into the bags they went!

On that note...
IMG_20220416_173050263.jpg
This package does not cost $20 to ship... It's in a normal sized document mailer that only weighs like half a pound. That's expensive plastic. And, I was honestly expecting the bags to feel more heavy duty and quality like than what they seem to be. But, they're supposed to regulate the humidity inside somehow... I'm open minded, but to some extent, still a bit sceptical here...

But, some of my trusted growmies have praised and sworn by them lately...soo?

Let's see if they live up to the hype!

Guillotine (purple pheno) also got burped last night...
IMG_20220417_184016046.jpg
Then, placed into Grove Bags. The V2 pollen took on these as I found a few seeds in this bud also! MACGuillycutty ass babies!!?

Smells like mixed fruits and ammonia, but when broken it releases a funky more dank weed aroma... Cure should smooth out and refine it?

The Terp profile sounds nice ?. Very tight looking nugget . Looks like hash and weed pressed together almost ?

Thanks man! The terp profile is pretty unique to me. Can't really say I've had this particular combination before. Very hard/tight nuggets. And yes, this cultivar is very heavy on the trichs indeed?

Awesome name! Hitting me with flashbacks from “I Love Lucy”, thanks for that. ?
Happy 420 bro!
