    The myth of amber trics!!

    I look at several things......water intake slows, pistils are brown and have curled back into the bud, buds stop plumping up, and of course I check trichs before chopping. I don't wait for amber though. I chop at mostly cloudy and it's been my experience that there's no loss of buzz doing so...

    Cloning problems anyone??

    For the longest time I had great luck cloning.....usually 100% success. Then all of a sudden my clones would not take. Dead within a week. It took a little bit before I figured it out......fungus gnats were getting in the dome and eating the roots as they were growing out of the clone. Now I...

    OPINIONS NEEDED: HPS grow light layout....

    There's a video on youtube that compares the XXL hoods vs. smaller more focused fixtures and after watching it I came away with you really need a 1000 w bulb in those big hoods as anything less will dilute the intensity too much. I run 600w's and like the more focused fixtures.

    actual benefits of super cropping ??????

    For myself I only super-crop when the plant is too tall for my lighting. I've done this at various stages of flower and have not found an increase in yield unless I compare it to what would have happened to the cola or branch if I let it fry itself under my lights. I will also agree that...

    Looking for some high CBD oil

    I need some help and advice: I just got off the phone with a friend of mine and we talked extensively about his 18 year old extremely autistic son and his seizures. I had asked him if he's looked into cannabis as a treatment for them and apparently his wife has done extensive studying on the...

    I am doing a survey

    I turn 59 this year. Who the fuck ever thought we'd make it this far? Had I known I'd get this far I'd certainly would have taken much better care of myself. Now I have bad knees, bad shoulders, bad eyes, false teeth, and very little hair. But I still enjoy a good joint of great weed.

    1000w One Plant Blue Dream

    You're still confused.....I never said I was running those strains.

    1000w One Plant Blue Dream

    Sorry about that....haven't been to this thread in awhile. Clone shipping is paused until the weather allows it. Right now it's a balmy 15 degrees out and will get down to -3 tomorrow. I haven't forgotten anyone....just haven't had a warm up in months.

    could it be re vegging??

    Revegging is odd at times. I had two plants that revegged among 15....no reason for it to have happened as it did...but it did. Reveg is all about interrupted dark cycles....are you being a bit cavalier about kicking the lights-on during lights-off? Keep an eye on the other plants....they may...

    could it be re vegging??

    yep...those single big bladed leaves are your sign of revegging.

    So You Think You Know Your Weed? THINK AGAIN!

    I have to ask......Do we tell our plants about this?

    color spectrums?

    I'm sure I could tweak my veg area's T5's for a broader spectrum and such, but honestly I find little fault with just going with 6K bulbs.....the plants grow just fine under them.

    What you think about this lamp?

    Why do you like it over the many other options out there?

    giving defoliation during flower a try

    While I don't see cannabis as a go-to for reversing a life-threatening illness, it certainly has many applications that ease pain and help those with seizures. Since marijuana is a schedule I drug it's almost impossible to have extensive research on the many benefits of cannabis in this...

    Looking for sativa suggestions

    I did numerous toppings as it started to grow from clone. The plant has no sense of direction as it'll just as often grow sideways as it will up. While not finicky about nutrients, depending on where it's at in growth it'll either not be all that thirsty or will demand to be watered every day...

    Looking for sativa suggestions

    LOL.....I saw this thread's question and the first thing that came to mind is Female Seeds C99. Trippy high (more trippy when chopped at 8 weeks). Real nice plant to grow...give it a good veg (8 weeks preferably) and it'll be a nice yielding plant too. I'm not a fan of sat's that take forever...

    color spectrums?

    I agree with ibsippin......I run a 600w HPS with a 400 MH in flower and feel that the mix gives me more dense buds. In veg I go with T5HO's (6K and 6.5K) and plants love 'em.

    What are you smoking today?

    I know that the clone-only blue dream has been around for awhile, but it's new to me and by God it's the best weed I've grown so far. I'm a functional stoner and went to a Christmas party and burned one on the way. When I got there I couldn't string an entire sentence together. Considering...

    What is the best tasting strain you have grown?????

    While I consider myself terrible at tasting the nuances between strains, I found the stand-out in my grows (after a good cure) was G13's Pineapple Express. Smoking it is like warm butter going down my throat. I really enjoy smoking some clone-only Blue Dream too....very smooth going down...

    8x4' x 2 600w perpetual

    I just skimmed through this thread as I am interested in your grow since I am just starting to put plants in my new 4x8 grow room with two 600w HPS's. Your topping technique is very similar to mine and have found it's probably the best way to top for maximum yield (this side of a SCROG). Nice...
