    Long Term Harvest Preservation

    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...

    Long Term Harvest Preservation

    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 growing outside near an indoor garden dangerous?

    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.

    White Fire Drooping 3 Days After Planting

    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...

    White Fire Drooping 3 Days After Planting

    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...

    Training Different Strains

    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?

    Training Different Strains

    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'...

    Anywhere in Sacramento got clones to rival the Bay Area?

    Is the lack of replies tantamount to "NOPE"?

    Anywhere in Sacramento got clones to rival the Bay Area?

    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?

    Avatar OG

    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...

    Kushberry in SS#4 with Dyna-Gro: Smart Pots vs. Old Fashioned Plastic

    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...

    Kushberry in SS#4 with Dyna-Gro: Smart Pots vs. Old Fashioned Plastic

    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 does it take to find a keeper?

    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...

    Kushberry in SS#4 with Dyna-Gro: Smart Pots vs. Old Fashioned Plastic

    If you take a look at the disparity between the number of 'Likes' I've received vs. those you can actually read on my profile, you get a sense for the fact that my period of most frequent contribution to this site has been erased forever. It's hard to be motivated to publish local info and even...

    Kushberry in SS#4 with Dyna-Gro: Smart Pots vs. Old Fashioned Plastic

    Feed-feed-water, homebrewer says. I concur. Watered 4 of 6 plants tonite with .25 EC tap water that took about .75mL pH Down to get 8 gallons to 6.5. A few things since the last images: -fed #3 and #1 (both hard plastic pots) a couple days after the last update, so they were too wet to get...

    Dynagro is under-rated as fuck

    Kushberry in SS#4 with Dyna-Gro: Smart Pots vs. Old Fashioned Plastic

    You're absolutely right. Smart Pots 'drink' more because of the increased evaporation caused by a porous material, as well as the increased root mass as encouraged by a fabric container's root pruning advantages. Which one accounts for more is a mystery, and it might turn out that it's a wash...

    Kushberry in SS#4 with Dyna-Gro: Smart Pots vs. Old Fashioned Plastic

    Plant 6 finally needed watering today, as did each of the Smart Pot'd trio. The Smart Pots used about 1.333 gals each, with the plastic pot running off at about 25% less (1gal). So not only did the Smart Pots get watered more recently, but they also absorb more water with less runoff. (*This...
