    Have you ever gotten a variegated plant?

    I almost culled it from the start. The other two phenotypes which came from the same batch of seeds, are not displaying any variegation at all, but they are growing ever-so-slightly slower than the variegated plant! Go figure! It's Tuna Kush which (I'm told) is originally from the Canadian...

    Have you ever gotten a variegated plant?

    The first thing I thought was "VIRUS!"....but then, everything else about the plant was on-point. The roots are white and healthy...no necrosis of any tissue....nothing indicative of a deficiency....pH is on-point. It's just one of those "red-headed step children" that popped up out of a...

    Is everyone having trouble getting rid of their weed

    My take on this is that young people do NOT know what real marijuana is(was) because not even their parents were alive when it was around. They're just too young. They sell their weed based on legend. It's like that scene from American Beauty where the kid gives the choice of the "decent" weed...

    Have you ever gotten a variegated plant?

    What disease are you seeing, exactly? That's what I thought at first, too, but the variegated plant is outgrowing the other two phenos by a node! They all germinated at the same time. A diseased plant typically doesn't outgrow a healthy plant. That's when I started looking into variegation. On...

    +1 for variegated.

    Small light recommendation

    Yeah, they sure are! I had no idea they were that expensive! I guess the aquarium crowd is willing to pay, but.....yeah....wow! Plus, they don't offer anything that looks like the proper spectrum, anyway. I just remember them from several years ago and some people were using them. They also use...

    Ready or not northern lights photoperiod

    Wait for a few more weeks. I grew NL #2. I never take a strain less than 10 weeks, typically. I've had exceptions, but, overall, 10 weeks is my rule.

    Can you tell how good the weed is just by looking at it?

    I never saw a single trichome on any of the old school buds like the ones pictured above. No one ever mentioned "trichomes"....ever. The weed look "bad" by today's standards for showy-looking, well-trimmed bud, but I guarantee you that those old, craggy, leafy, dried-out buds would put you into...

    Have you ever gotten a variegated plant?

    Nope....It's not a disease. The plant is perfectly healthy and, in fact, is growing faster than the other two, non-variegated phenotypes. I find it interesting. This is the first one I've ever gotten. Anyone else?

    Have you ever gotten a variegated plant?

    I have. This run, I popped three Tuna Kush seeds (Hazeman)...All display unique morphology....One of them is variegated. Check it out....

    Can you tell how good the weed is just by looking at it?

    I bought some DJ Short's Blueberry when I was in Denver a few years ago. Looked great....smelled like blueberries....smoke tasted like pure sulfur/gunpowder. Maybe it was something they added to the soil....? I don't know. But I will just leave this here.....

    Small light recommendation

    Viparspectra makes nice lights. I've got two of their XS1500 Pro models. If you want a spotlight type of light, I remember a company called Kessil (sp?) that makes singular, color-specific lights for aquarium lighting. I know some growers used them years ago.... HLG makes a small quantum board....

    Does this look like a Herm?

    Pardon my bad eyes, but I don't see any pistils. It looks like a pure male to me. In any case, you probably want to rid yourself of it.

    Selling used, older tech grow lights: Is it even worth it?

    I'm not part of the FB society so I'd have to join and get familiar with all of it....probably not going to happen, but thanks all the same.

    Selling used, older tech grow lights: Is it even worth it?

    I'm cleaning out my attic. I have a bunch of older grow lights that go back to ~2012. Some have the old 3-watt Cree red and white LEDs and some have the COB tech. They have fans. I was looking at Ebay to see if people list them. Mostly, I saw really inexpensive, brand-new lights with newer...

    Light recommendations?

    HLG is a good company. They have efficient lights for a variety of spaces. AC Infinity is good. They have great customer service. ViparSpectra XS1500 has been a good performer for me. You can go to YouTube and check out a channel called MIGRO. The host independently reviews a bunch of...

    Harvesting Head High vs Body High

    I appreciate the link. I guess what I was referring to were the "renowned" landrace strains that became famous in the weed smoking world of the mid-1970's. Acapulco Gold, Panama Red, Red Columbian, Oaxacan, Thai, Hawaiian, etc. I know I have tried many seed venders who say they have those...

    Harvesting Head High vs Body High

    Everything is a hybrid now, so there's no way to expect any type of consistent effect from one strain to the next. To me, it's always going to come down to whether it's a good hybrid or not. And, if it's a good one, then it should get you stoned if it's grown to a fully-ripe stage. I don't...

    Harvesting Head High vs Body High

    The body high vs head high thing....I don't believe it has to do with Indica or sativa, but rather when the trichomes are ripe. Sativa-heavy hybrids tend to take longer to ripen, so people often harvest them early when the trichomes aren't as ripe as they could be....the effect being that they...

    Pollinated at 8 weeks

    As far as seeded weed goes, the best weed I've ever smoked was full of them. That was the way that I learned when to harvest when I first started growing. It was ready to harvest when the seeds were dark and fully-developed. No one was scoping the trichomes in those days. And strains like...
