Picked up some lovely pollen today. Weird pollen, really really soft, not as soft as squidgy but u can still pick it off without burning and roll it a little. Not expensive either( 120 an oz)

morning kang,

question on harvesting, its the trichs, is it better for them to go amber at the top and milky mid way down or milky at the top then harvest, if there milky at the top there near clear at middle and bottom?

how far can they go before the trichs start to break down and become no good for purpose?

have to get a 30x mag glass today, and feck the speculation...

morning ae, they tend to be more ready at the top ae but i dont ever worry to much into it and harvest when i start to see amber or if i need smoke ill chop when they turn milky, you really cant loose no matter what way you go, but they will start to lose potency after turning amber if you dont chop
 
sound, thanks for that dude, you know when you start reading up on these things and so many different stories it kinda gets the head spinning.. end up 2nd guessing everything....

Hey, I want to grow in my attic. Its a normal irish attic with beams and insulation. Is it a good grow spot. Also what things do I to grow and were can I get them in Ireland(lights,soil,nutrients and so forth) does that also depend on what weed I'm goin to grow.
Thanks Patners

Hey Sullie
Glad you made it. There's a grow shop on Doughiska rd
in Galway. Google is your friend. As mentioned before,
you need something to help control temperatures.
Too hot or too cold will cause you problems.
You could buy a tent or just build a box. Also this
will help contain smell. When I first started growing
I completely under estimated just how much
they smell. To eliminate smell you need a good
filter although you will only really need this when
you go into flower so this could be put off a few
weeks if your on a budget. To move the air through
the filter you will need an in-line fan. It's also worth
having a small desktop fan inside your space. This
will keep air moving which the plants love and will
prevent mold and other probs. As for lights, get a high
pressure sodium if you can afford it.
Make sure it's a digital ballast which will cost a few
quid extra but it's worth it. For nutrients
I would reccommend Sensi grow/ bloom from Advanced
nutrients. It's pretty simple and gets good results.
What you need to do now is read read read.
There is a huge amount of info on here and although
i am a relative newcomer myself, the lads here seem
like a nice bunch and are always willing to help.
Good luck and keep us updated
