Yes, we're talking about exactly the same thing. In my experience, cannabis looks darker as it ages, which I believe is a degradation of THC into CBN (nasty). Then again, I've never had a sample perfectly sealed and untouched for months, hence the ongoing inquiry. Has anyone successfully...

This sounds like a 'harvesting' question, but I'm curious specifically about the experiences of the outdoor growing community: Some have claimed they keep their outdoor harvest until a few months after the autumn rush. The market trends higher in late winter and into spring, but how can you...

Is there any serious danger of 'cross-contamination' with outdoor plants negatively impacting nearby indoor grows because of: -pests -pathogens -pollen? I would imagine the main vector would be ventilation, as in bugs, spores and/or pollen coming in through the ventilation system.

Nope. These clones are/were super healthy (good look, Harborside). Here's an 'extra' I'm about to plant in a few minutes (miscalculated my medium requirements and had to wait on the source): You can see there's just a hint of browning because they're ready to get into a bigger medium. It's...

What's up with this WiFi clone? BEFORE: (top-left) Three days ago, it went into a #3 Smart Pot containing a 50/50 mix of hydroton and Sushine #4. The SS4 was soaked and the cuts watered in with a 350ppm solution of No Shock (5ml/gal). It looked great at the start of Veg Day 1. AFTER...

So nick would top every strain and maybe clean up some of the ones that have natural squatty structures so as to improve light penetration and eliminate fluff. Anyone else got specific a training 'regimen' for a particular strain?

I'd like to invite a discussion on the best training methods for different plants. For example, I've seen GDP so dense with nodes you wouldn't want to top it, whereas an OG isn't going to do as well in a SOG setup. What have been your experiences with different strains and their 'preferred'...

Is the lack of replies tantamount to "NOPE"?

Trying to save on mileage, you know :bigjoint: Places in the Bay I'm considering include: Harborside Medicinal Organic Nursery Urban Farm Center Does anywhere in/closer to Sac have comparable quality and variety?

In the process of buying seeds, I was thinking about the best flowers I've tried. One strain was exclusive to El Camino Wellness Center in Sacramento: AVATAR OG. It's one of their 'private reserve' $60 strains and I like everything about it. I have, however, (because of some of the things...

Helpful perspective, thanks.

This is more or less exactly the kind of feedback I hoped for, and from a trusted name...grazie :bigjoint:

Hey bird, Glad you found it; my mentions of taste/smell and feel above were meant for you in particular. You were totally right: the frosty Kushberry pheno is a OG-leaning sativa dom hybrid. I took my first round waaaaay too late, hence the CBN-induced 'creeper' quality I was noticing after...

Long story short: My entire way of thinking about this plant and really botany in general has taken a quantum leap. I'll be using an entirely new system next time, and I might even register a domain and set up a blog because I want to document my progress, but RIU's recent fuckup was...

How many seeds from one strain would you need to pop to find an 'elite' keeper? I've read commercial growers say they top-grade as many as 100 at a time to find the best of the bunch. This isn't practical for me given the MSRP of these 6 and 10 packs, so I'm curious to learn how other people...
