Hey good stuff thanks for contributing bud.

Why do people wait for trichs to oxidise(rust) before harvesting?
Is that a new thing?
I was learned to harvest before they started to lose potency.

I tend to pick my shit when it is cloudy, not amber. I like mine looking like shiny diamonds

Bully #2..hz/sk x oaxacan almost done..drying this to test..been flowering darn near 14 wks..View attachment 3849594

Oh wow how did I miss that pic????????? Looks fire, how does it smell and taste? Looks like the old purple haze I used to get, you keep a mom?

Because some of the degradation products are desired such as CBN to increase sedative properties.
It's not about getting high. That's a nice side effect

Indeed. But the science says once it turns amber the potency has been lost.

I'm just wondering as to the reasoning behind intentional loss of potency.

Holy shit
That's some crazy patience you got oms!
Looks great but damn that's a long time
Hope it delivers for ya

its what u gotta do to get the particuar mood altering characteristics..

ps. almost none of the resin globuals are dark either..i respect others preference for amber

..but its not for me

Evolution of the Cannabinoid and Terpene Content during the Growth of Cannabis sativa Plants from Different Chemotypes

The evolution of major cannabinoids and terpenes during the growth of Cannabis sativa plants was studied. In this work, seven different plants were selected: three each from chemotypes I and III and one from chemotype II. Fifty clones of each mother plant were grown indoors under controlled conditions. Every week, three plants from each variety were cut and dried, and the leaves and flowers were analyzed separately. Eight major cannabinoids were analyzed via HPLC-DAD, and 28 terpenes were quantified using GC-FID and verified via GC-MS. The chemotypes of the plants, as defined by the tetrahydrocannabinolic acid/cannabidiolic acid (THCA/CBDA) ratio, were clear from the beginning and stable during growth. The concentrations of the major cannabinoids and terpenes were determined, and different patterns were found among the chemotypes. In particular, the plants from chemotypes II and III needed more time to reach peak production of THCA, CBDA, and monoterpenes. Differences in the cannabigerolic acid development among the different chemotypes and between monoterpene and sesquiterpene evolution patterns were also observed. Plants of different chemotypes were clearly differentiated by their terpene content, and characteristic terpenes of each chemotype were identified.

I think you will find that science seems to say these days that CBN is not produced in significant amounts in living plants (<0.1%) in normal environmental conditions, but rather is a product of improper/inadequate storage post harvest.

I will be starting a new "grow your own 2017" thread in a week or 2, get ready, I have a new license, and I am going to be a DG for my best friend, and I will be renting out space, to have a total of four licenses at once location.

Almost done setting up a new room. All info will be in new thread. Stay tuned, and also I want you all to grow and post in the new thread.

Awesome, looking forward to seeing what you have going Let us know when you start up the thread.

Here's the state of my little garden, front 1/2 is coming out by next weekend, the rest in 2-3 weeks. Ho. ho, ho

Cool, but maybe I'm missing the relevance of this excerpt.

tldr; later harvests are a good thing

Shit day for getting around, went from Collingwood to Mississauga this morning, what a bitch getting back up here. Once you're north of Hwy 9 visibility = 0

Yeah that is a shitty drive for sure on a day like today. Glad you are safe.

Lets start it off fresh, post all your grow pics, system setups, and reports here. I will spark it off with my Sensi Star.
I have 3 new genetics I am working with for the new year.

Sensi Star
ChemD x Sour D
Sour D ibl x Sour D RiRi


Sensi Star @ day 53 flushed for 9 days. 1Gal Pot coco hand feed everyday 2 times, RO @ 25 ppm, CalMag 200ppm, GH 3 part to bring me up to around 600ppm, I leave 200ppm for boosters and additives, PH 5.7-6.3 600w HPS, first 5 days of flush ran botanicare sweet grape(got it as a freebie)

Haha I figured out how to find your thread brother . Good to see someone kind of local I'm about hour and a half from you in niagara falls. We should swap sum clean clones some time I have many strains jist looking to aquire two or 3 in particular

[Kennyg420666]

I have many strains I have bred myself over the last year or so if anyone is interested in some tester seeds I am willing to give some away for free
