I usually smoke the medicine with paper, not really into paraphernalia, I have a vaper daddy but I never use it!! Hopefully this was the last bag of weed I had to buy for a long time, it's good shit though, maple leaf cured 9 months... I didnt grow it. I can't wait to smoke my own! Last year was my first attempt at growing (old bag seeds) and I was really disappointed with the potency of my buds, and I didnt get very much at all... this time around will be different!

What you working with this round?
Click to expand...
Going with 2 of DNAs femmed Chocolope, 1 W. Russian x Vet Seed (unknown bagseed), and 6-8 Chocolope x ? - Pretty sure they are femmed chocolope x chocolope but the father could also be white russian or possibly goo.

I miss my chocolope, by far one of my favorite strains, possibly my #1.

Gastanker I thought you didnt have the time for a full harvest before you move into your new place?

Turns out we'll be occupying both places for several months. Should be able to get one quick round in before the final move as long as I keep the veg time down. Likely I'll start vegging the next round over there while I flower out this round here.

Chocolope is some dank bomb smoke IMO. One of my faves, does yours have a trippy effect to it?

GT what would you suggest to help me take clearer macro shots like yours?

Here is my cam if you know anything about it...

I assume it has many of the features mine does considering it is a newer camera. This is my approach:

Set the camera to largest picture size, finest dpi... My camera has 3 main settings, video camera, scene, or standard/manual. On scene setting select indoors - this helps correct the color of your lamp. Now set to macro - this is not digital macro, just macro. From here get the camera as close as possible with it still focusing and take many many pictures. If you can zoom in and it sill focuses take more (generally it will not focus when zoomed). If you have enough light and can keep your camera still enough and the exposure is on auto or slow then when you put it on your computer you will be able to manually zoom in with it retaining all the detail.

Original picture (one of these 2, i mixed them up):




Zoomed on computer (same picture):



In this example not so clear when zoomed much more - with your higher pixel count you should be able to go in farther.



Second option (this is what I generally use as my camera is lower mega pixel). Again set to maximum picture size, finest dpi, auto exposure time. Put it on the standard/manual setting and select digital macro - this is in the main menu versus just clicking on the left arrow like switching between macro/standard/infinity. With digital macro you can get the camera much much closer while remaining in focus and it also allow you to digitally zoom on the camera. Digital zoom is different than optical zoom in that you are decreasing resolution with digital whereas optical zoom everything is still just as clear; so don't zoom in tot he max with the digital macro but zoom in to a degree. Take TONS of pics at various amounts of zoom. Generally with these pictures you do not need to zoom in manually on your computer but they have a much narrower focal point.

Digital macro with digital zoom on camera - no post zoom/crop. Notice how some parts are very clear but other parts are very blurry.



If lighting is not great, manually set to a slower iso but make sure the camera is extremely steady. If the light is super high but your camera isn't steady set to a higher (faster) iso. If it is dim and your hand isn't steady lower the picture size and keep on auto or st to a higher iso.

Hope that helps - guess it depends on how similar the cameras are. A lot of it is just fucking around with all the different settings. Never be afraid to take too many pictures.

hey Gastanker did you use RO water to water cure your bud? I used tap water yesterday that had been sitting for 24 hours for the first soak
