    Someone must be growing in OC besides me

    My wife and I went to a hydro store in Orange County to look for an inline fan and carbon filter. I was surprised that this place had a good selection of gear but mostly out of our price range. It really looked like the store must have some big producers as customers. I have been reading...

    Finally got paranoid and installed a carbon filter

    We have been growing in our apartment for a couple years now and no one has given us any trouble about it, but last week the downstairs neighbor knocked on the door and politely asked if we had ever heard of smokeless ashtrays. I told her that we don’t smoke, which is true. We use a Volcano vape...

    Is there any hope for seedlings that stop growing after sprouting?

    I planted some seeds that I have had on hand for about five years. Most of them didn’t sprout and a couple that did sprout basically stopped growing after producing seed leaves. Is there any way to stimulate them to grow? They have been stuck at this stage for about a month now. I gave both...

    “Costa Mesa Eyes Limiting Number of Cannabis Shops”

    The proposed limit is 35. I only count eight “storefronts” on Weedmaps in Costa Mesa FWIW. https://voiceofoc.org/2024/03/costa-mesa-eyes-limiting-number-of-cannabis-shops/

    Back to the ‘70s: Did anyone ever actually try grafting cannabis to hops to fool the narcs?

    I can remember reading articles in High Times or other hippie publications about how hops and cannabis are supposed to be closely related. Because people knew barely enough to recognize the shape of a cannabis leaf, some geniuses thought it would be a good idea to graft one branch of a cannabis...

    Seed donations?

    This is completely new to me and it seems like a good idea. I happen to have a bunch of seeds that I kind of accidentally created while messing around with my hobby weed. At this point, I probably have more than I will ever be able to plant in my tiny grow tent and closet. I did a quick Google...

    Fire at “cannabis operation” in downtown LA

    This doesn’t say if it was a grow facility or if they were storing plant material or making extracts. General observation: Cannabis burns hot. I’m guessing that it presents unique challenges for firefighters. If I was running a big operation I would not skimp on fire safety...

    Observation about effects of uncured flowers on grumpy old men

    I have always been a bit skeptical of the “science” of curing flowers, but I have to admit that over the last year or so my wife and I have noticed that if we test-vape dried flowers before allowing them to cure for a few weeks, they are more likely to make us what the medical professionals call...

    Is Caffeine a new strain or just a re-branding of Green Crack?

    Dispensaries in my part of SoCal have been selling clones of a strain called Caffeine. I found some information online that makes me wonder if it’s not just a new name for Green Crack. The clones are listed on Weedmaps and usually the dispensaries are supplied by Clone Guy but I went to his...

    I bought an assortment of beneficial mites. How can I tell if they are doing the job?

    I got these from Amazon. This is the first time I have tried beneficials. The predators are supposed to be “A.cucumeris, N. californicus, P. persimilis. and A. swirskii.” I bought some sachets of N. californicus earlier but I didn’t see a lot of activity and was worried that the mites died in...

    Systemic spinosad for mites?

    This says it works when applied to tomato roots in rockwool. Some sources say spinosad becomes systemic to an extent if applied to leaves, but I am guessing this would affect the whole plant. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16180075/
