    what does your name mean?

    "Roach" was a nick-name given to me by my best friend as I was always looking for roaches in his car's ashtray (there was always 1/2 joints in there). Sadly he passed away a few years ago and in his honor I use his nick-name for me as my handle on here and elsewhere. RIP Daryl.

    Ghost Train Haze #1 - Rare Dankness

    I have recently harvested GTH and found it to be amazing weed.....it physically affected my eye site and hearing....no pot has ever done that to me in my 40+ years of smoking. It's not a big yielder....but worth the grow.

    best lighting for large grow

    There's no glass in those fixtures. The entire room is climate controlled. There's two ways of looking at keeping the glass in the hoods. First, there's up to a 7% loss of effective light when the glass is in place....but then again you can put your lights closer to make up for that loss.

    best lighting for large grow

    I just watched a thread on another site where someone professionally built a large grow-op (100's of plants) and his rule-of-thumb is 4 plants per 1000 watt HPS. Here's one of his veg rooms:

    how long do you veg and why?

    Most of the time I veg 'em until they start hitting the T5's above them. This go around I have 7-8 weeks to kill before I have room for the bunch of clones that have been in veg for about a month.....so I've been topping on a daily basis to keep the height down. It's been my experience that...

    Was Marijuana Really Less Potent in the 1960s?

    Funny thing was I ran from the cops because I had a few bricks of Thai in the trunk....each time they caught me they never checked the trunk.

    Was Marijuana Really Less Potent in the 1960s?

    Some say Thai Stick was soaked in opium....some say it wasn't. What I can say is that when I smoked Thai Stick I ended up in a high-speed police pursuit (helicopter included)......twice within 2 weeks.

    Was Marijuana Really Less Potent in the 1960s?

    I'm sure that the gene pools have been diluted from the "old school" high-end weed of the past, but I look at my Blue Dream, my Golden Goat, my Pineapple Express, my Ghost Train Haze, and my NYCD and say to myself "What we've done ain't all that bad" in regards to the zillion crosses we have to...

    Was Marijuana Really Less Potent in the 1960s?

    God....I've been smoking weed for almost 45 years. Fuckshitpiss I'm getting old.

    Was Marijuana Really Less Potent in the 1960s?

    The answer is "It depends". Many of us back in the day smoked the leaves because we didn't know better....and somehow got high. In southern California brick-weed was the pot of the day....$100 kilos made up for quality with quantity (ounces cost $3 when buying a kilo). If you knew the right...

    Blue Dream-Greenthumb Seeds

    If it grows like the clone-only version, a good veg time....8 weeks or more will reap great rewards. Blue Dream likes topping and manipulations if done correctly. Looking at your pictures though.....your BD doesn't look at all like mine. Mine is very sativa looking with very thin leaves...

    Whatcha growing next?

    It was good weed....not the best...but good. I don't think I'd grow it again though. It was a good yielding plant...I think I got 4-5 ounces per plant.

    should i trim?

    As you'll quickly find out, trimming leaves off a pot plant has many different opinions on here.....very vocal opinions. Regardless of all those opposing opinions, it's my suggestion that since this is your first grow that you leave the plant as-is. First, you should see how a pot plant grows...

    Ordering my equipment in one week! All opinions welcomed.

    You're cooling one light right? You don't have to go with 8"......six inch is more than enough. I cool two 600w HPS with a 240 cfm inline booster fan ($25) and they're cool to the touch. It's not a quiet fan (none of them are) but it does the job. Here's a thought.......Craigslist. I've...

    Ordering my equipment in one week! All opinions welcomed.

    That's a lot of bulb for a 5'x5' tent.....as long as you have ample venting you should do fine (unless I missed it...I didn't see any fans). I agree with the comment about RO water....I water right from the tap without issue. I'm assuming you're growing in soil as I didn't see any hydro stuff...
