    Go for the Kings day weekend if you can. Shit loads of street parties all over. Rammed full of amzingly fit, but slightly uppity dutch girls. It's great!

    Redding on the bottom leaves...

    If your temps aren't low then don't worry about it. I had a plant with perfectly purple under-leafs and green tops. My temps weren't very low, and the purple disappeared on its own very soon, after the next node had sprouted basically. The advice above is sound though. Less water is better than...

    Yeah, she ain't that great. The one in the yellow top on Deal would get it though...definitely.

    That lavender one must have been related to the purple haze, because I do remember that smelling like the shitty pot pourri my mum used to put in a bowl on the toilet!! Hell...the effect of the PH was lovely the few times I smoked it. Really strong sativa high. That taste just did my head in...

    Just done some checking, and it looks like the early blueberry might have turned purple more often if it was cold, or if it was a certain pheno....I'm pretty sure I never saw blue except for the purple haze (which had a really distinctive smell and taste) Edit: Yeah, looks like I just never saw...

    Yeah, but I didn't think the original blueberry was actually a blue strain...it just really tasted like blueberry. I remember my first hit of it, thinking how right they'd got the name. Fruity and sweet. This was probably around 2001? I'm not sure when they started getting blue..Purple Haze was...

    I got nothing but pizza menus through the door today so I'm fucking jealous. Still I should be picking up a half of blueberry tomorrow, so I'll survive. Well.. I say blueberry....this mate used to have a proper oldschool blueberry cut, but he lost it like 5 years ago. He even asked me to get...

    Leaves get spots near end of flowering

    No. Nutes are generally acidic, and even very hard water will not offset that. I know because I have very hard water here, yet my tap pH is only 7.5. Once I add my normal nutes to it, it drops right down to 6, or more depending on ppm.

    E-cig vaporizer...! Man that's got me thinking. But the smell is still pretty fierce though eh? Maybe oil rather than kif?

    Leaves get spots near end of flowering

    If you are still only giving them water then maybe give them a little touch of nutes in the next feed and see how it goes, but, yeah...in general if you get sugar leaves dying off then it might be time to think about chopping early and saving what you have. Last resort though that. If I had to...

    Well, I reckon you're underestimating what big business can do with genetics, but like you say..new isn't always better, specially when there's a lot of money involved... and I never argued that simply increasing THC is even what we want anyway. But since I don't think I ever tried clone only...

    HID lamps for seedlings?

    They are fine. Your temps look on the low side though. 12C is a bit too low for good growth! (I'm assuming 55F is your night time temperature?)

    I agree it probably does happen like that if it's paid for by the seedbank, but there are plenty of labs who take their job seriously and don't just analyse weed.

    If you say so. It doesn't seem like most of the dealers I hear about have it then, cos I've not smoked anything better that I've bought than I've grown myself from seed. I have shit contacts though, I'll say that. I'd like to see an actual lab report on these clone only strains...most new...

    HID lamps for seedlings?

    Just put your light at 3ft and leave it until they grow up to it! Check out the Light Distance chart (google it) which will tell you the range for more mature plants

    I got a pheno of Chernobyl from Subcool seeds (from a long list of seeds I've grown out) which was definitely a plant that was worth cloning and passing on. It was sweeter than most other strains I've smoked, here or in Dam, and so sticky even when cured. The buzz was also amazingly smooth, nice...

    HID lamps for seedlings?

    It's all about the level of light they get really (assuming temps are controlled). Young plants are just more sensitive because their "skin" is so newly formed. There is some scientific evidence to suggest that some of the resin they excrete forms a sort of sun block (which is why UV light is...

    Watering seedlings???

    I'm currently experimenting with just that question. My current seedlings are being kept on a very hardcore low-water diet. No misting, just a wet towel in the cupboard to increase humidity a touch. They certainly aren't complaining so far. My hope is that it will improve my root growth and...
