Hey y'all, I'll be updating this soon (famous last words), but wanted to post a quick update. I'm using a relatively low wattage LED light (~150w) plus a few spare CFL's. These two girls were raised on a few 5000k clfs, and have been flowering for about 8 weeks with the LED. Without further...

yo yo yo, CD whats up man? good to see you still on here! in my last few grows i started drying with all the leaves on for over a weak, then another week in a paper bag, and then i finally trim. i get amazing smelling buds almost every time this way (was hit and miss when i used to trim right...

hey kagecog, what do you think about boiling off some of the alcohol at the end of the process using a double boiler? i usually follow the same steps you mentioned (except i don't have the patience to wait 3 weeks... more like 3 days). but then i boil the tincture down to about 30% of its...

good luck with the next grow cd! i'm sure it'll turn out better for you.

man, you have some patience dude! i wonder if shortening the light period might make it hurry up? good luck bro

word cd, spreading the cardboard box knowledge!

hey canadian, actually i think there might have been nanners on the buds -- check out the pics below... do you think those are nanners in the top pic? i thought about a possible male in the neighborhood, but i had several other plants that started a few weeks earlier and they developed no...

yo canadian, no -- i left the plan outdoors the entire time during flowering. i did move it around, so halfway through flowering it got slightly different number of direct sunlight. but always outdoors (only first 3 weeks of seedling/veg was inside, under 24 hrs cfls, 5000k). thanks harris...

hey trousers, thanks for the info bro. i assume you mean 50% herm, 25% male, 25% female? (i like them odds, lol). i guess there are three possibilities: 1) it was truly hermie and the seeds will produce what you said 2) it was truly female and either went hermie to pollinate herself (in which...

hey spek9, thanks for the reply dude. i'm gonna keep the seeds like you suggest and wait for a good female to show up. i'll also keep the bud... maybe smoke report to come. peace

dear riu, i got a bunch of free seeds last summer (of supposedly white widow lineage). so for fun, i planted a few of them indoors in early/mid august, and one of them survived. i vegged indoors for 3 weeks and took it outdoors in early september. in mid september, i noticed what i...

hey brother sweetleaf, i think the difference in temperatures has to do with the temperature at which decarboxylation takes place (which depends on factors like time, but roughly in the 200-250 F range) and the temperature at which thc boils or evaporates (closer to the 300 F range). i'm not...

looking good cd!

looking pretty good cd, and the two plants are definitely different looking. maybe a bit hot and dry in there... have you tried humidifying with a bowl of water and a paper towel wick? peace

tiny little plant, but took on an amazing purple hue about a week ago. she's ready to go down, i think. homer371
