Thanks for the info. I looked it up and Swiss Cheese is what I had down as a beginner strain. I think it stated so on Nirvana or wherever. 6-8 wk flowering time and a good beginner strain, or something to that effect. The whole process of germinating, vegging, cloning and flowering (making clones out of 1-2 of the plants), etc is daunting for a noob. I'll definitely need to carefully pick a hearty strain that is a bit forgiving.
i would say blue cheese is kinda picky as a plant. i'd just take a shot in trhe dark. what you looking for sative or indica.

If I were to do it all again, I'd start with fem seed, not that I'm a fan, and run them all at once. Then take a clone from each for a second run, and start flowering, I'd do this until I build up a reserve suitable to my consumption times 3 at least, then I'd start playing around with regulars. The biggest thing I found is that alot of time was spent on regular seeds leaving me short on supply and causing early harvests and not allowing for a proper cure before I had to dig in. Call me Chronic, idk, but I hate running out, especially now that I'm making my own.

Edit. the plus side to it though is I was able to get some nice seed that somehow escaped and ran away to new homes.

Daunting for some of us who aren't to noob-y. I tried my hand at seeds this year and I must say it was all a bit too much for my little head to think about. Ended up finding a good home for them. I just buy clones, veg a couple weeks, and flower. So much easier, but having clones to buy is a luxury. I definitely feel lucky on that tip. And yeah PPP is great beginner too.

I have NO idea as to why, but reading that made me think of Mitch Hedberg (RIP).
It's probably the THC...
bongsmilie

quoting jigfresh:
"About the IPA here's the best I can find, about $100 for 4 gallons of 99% IPA "

Damn, at first I thought you were talking about India Pale Ale. :-)
Funny about the indian pale ale. I used to work at a place that cleaned cleanrooms and Isopropyl alcohol was used every day. We always called it IPA. I quit drinking over 5 years ago, and when I did drink it was mostly liquor, so I'm not into the beer scene much. I'm not sure what is with all the beer knowledge these days, but I hear IPA (the ale) mentioned a lot amoungst my friends. When I first started hearing it I wondered how it was that they were drinking ISO and not ending up in the hospital. I figured it out eventually.

In regards to Mitch Hedberg... I had never heard of him before you mentioned this. I have to say... I have not laughed harder possibly in my entire life. Maybe 1 or 2 times this hard. Anyways, he is/was one funny individual. Shame he's gone.

I would recommend Hindu Skunk or Master Kush (pretty much the same strain)... it's very forgiving. I grew Hindu Skunk and White Widow, the WW turned out non smokable becuase I screwed the whole thing up so bad. The HS... it's still good today and I've had it in a jar for 2 years. A couple of my buddies like it the best of all my smokes, haha. Smells great too.

I'm not saying Blue Cheese is bad, I don't know anything about it... just wanted to throw my 2p in.

i have grown blue cheese many times
it is an awesome plant

but very very picky

stick with a kush for first time use

afghan kush was my first strain, it was so easy to grow
it can handle hot temps and it not picky with nutes
big yield too!

idk bout NC since im still new roiund here. but in sc it was sold @ every liquor store.
as far as making iso hash. ive inly done it once with trim and it was fresh. next time ill be drying. i have to figure out how to use my trim so i wont have to waste it. i hate wasting.
Edibles are always a viable option

It is bubbling on the joint I am smoking just now, it sure is ooooh-weeeee!

Waiter: Are you finished sir? How did you find your meal sir?
Sir: I found that my meal was a pile of dog turd, now get the fuck out of my face!
lol, that what I meant by "found". Don't you love English!

And oil!

Ewwwwwie.... that looks so nastily good. Not sure what you mean by where I found mine? I found the BHO hiding in the trim I had, so I extracted it with butane. I have not found any concentrates on the ground at a smoke shop for some time now, lol. The honey oil does for sure kick shit into high gear. I haven't passed out in front of the TV this much since I lived by myself. Been a couple time I've fallen asleep racing on the ps3 only to be woken by the controller vibrating when I crash. Not the most fun experience for someone who crashed their car after falling asleep. It's like bad deja vu each time.

I got the butane taste the first time I smoke the stuff, but that was before the vacuum purge. I got me a hand powered vacuum pump that I can suck all the tiny tiny butane bubbles out the oil with. Takes a bit of work here (being so cold) but it's the business when done right.

Where you get some everclear? thought that was illegal (haha, like that stops us doing things).
Have you used ISO D, if u have u gotta let me kno if u like the Everclear or ISO version better.
ISO i have never done. this is very nice though, fuk me.

Thanks for the response DST. I' haven't done a great deal of research on which strain I'll do yet. I'll probably go for a "beginner" type strain for a while, to get the hang of things. I think I read bleu cheese was a good beginner strain? I'm also doing soil, which I hear is more forgivable. I'm not going for pure yield nor pure potency. I'd like a mix (probably a common goal). Ideally, eventially I'd like to end up with about a lb at the end of each harvest. This is after I have some experience and know what I'm doing of course. At first I'll be happy to just not kill the plants, lol.

600w hps seems like just about the right fit for me as far as yields go with a balance of heat and energy consumption. I've also been looking at LED's recently. I may get shit thrown at me now for mentioning that but oh well, lol. I like the lower energy consumption and heat signature. Also I like the idea of being able to leave and not worrying about my house burning down in case the fan goes out or something, lol. So I'm looking at either a 600w hps set up or something like 2 357 mag LED's or one SG 602 LED. Still leaning toward the 600 though.

:dunce:
All I would suggest mate, is to get something that has a short flowering time. The quicker you get you first harvest out the way the better. You will be gagging to pull it down so if it's a short flowering plant then better for you. Or that was perhaps just how I remember feeling (every grow I have, lol)

I found this interesting discussion on alcohol in an automotive paint & refinishing forum:

DST riddle me wants you!

na man but he has created a 600 club thread just for you man and its a sticky

I am not sure my wife would be happy, hehe.

10 PRINT "600";

I've started using my real good trim to make dry sieved hash, love it and my buddy tells me he then takes the trim he's sieved and runs it through his vaporizer. I tossed it the first time but I'm in the process of saving more.

I would look at any skunk strain with skunk#1 in it.

One step at a time, don't kill them is a good first step, with time you'll learn the rest.

If I were to do it all again, I'd start with fem seed, not that I'm a fan, and run them all at once. Then take a clone from each for a second run, and start flowering, I'd do this until I build up a reserve suitable to my consumption times 3 at least, then I'd start playing around with regulars.

Duchie and everyone else, just checking in to say I'm alive and well, very well. I just finished my rationing period a couple of weeks ago when I chopped my herijuana x big white. That was a few weeks ago. I have the main cola left, it's in a jar with the main cola of the blackjack which is in my opinion a good all around smoke. We'll see how it is is another couple of weeks of curing. I chopped my hericules monday afternoon and this afternoon she went into jars. Shackzilla ends week eleven of 12/12 tomorrow. I'm letting her go another week. Nice dense buds for a sativa dominant plant. And then I have this killing fields. What a long strange trip it's been with this plant. In the beginning it didn't want to grow, it was a runt, then it all of a sudden started growing and I had to supercrop it to keep it under control. I'm not exactly sure how old the bitch is but she still needs a couple more/few weeks to finish. Sannie says you have green and blue phenos with this plant. Mine is burgundy and very fruity. I've never seen a plant with this color of bud. It's not the leaves, it's the seeds sacks the pistils shoot out from. Very nice size buds on her and if she fattens up over the next few weeks I'll be super pleased. I took a couple of small branches of the shackzilla that should be dry in a few more days. I'm taking off a few days next week and heading to st. augustine, the oldest city in the US. This old man has started playing the friends with benefits game and it's going very well. There is something to be said about having a woman around for company and play and yet still have your freedom. I've never experienced it before and I'm lovin' it, way more than mac donalds. My lack of participation on the six hundred lately is in direct correlation with my now active social life, sorry guys. I'm playing golf again in the morning, a seven oh seven tee time, I'm hoping to be the first out for the day? Tomorrow evening my play pal comes over and will be hanging out till monday morning and then wednesday this old fart is heading out to see a different woman. Any comments containing jealousy and envy will get you guys nowhere.

cof, you get any purple out of your killing fields?

My next grow is going to be the one I've been waiting for. Neville's haze, hawaiian snow, chocolope, critical kali mist, acapulco gold and a laughing buddha, all sativa dominant.

mr. west, I owe you an apology. I have not forgotten. I've been bitten by a vagina and I can't get away. My apologies.

Glad to see your alive and well. Have you ever noticed how much better you after knocking the rust off...it just gets better with age.

I had one plant that was a dark purple...she was so mistreated so was ugly, but a good smoke for the head.

DST

OIL ON...
