does anyone use Quantum Boards ? was going to get a Vsprecta 700- dimmimable/ adjustable spectrum. comparing the Visprectra 700 from amazon to one identical at LED Light Depot - there was a difference the one from Led light depot has more diodes than the one form amazon - cost eas the same. BUY ran into Quantum Boards and went with them (american Made) Better quality and a bit cheaper

I’d get it if I were you... used the 600 and some Chinese one called Elaine plus flower side lighting from the depot ...wanted to get that dimmer one ....I’ve heard the boards are better they say.... I would just use them for side lighting viparspectra will raise temp 10 to 15 degrees which alot of people need anyways. This guy sweed posted some bomb ass cheaper boards for sale on this thread ...
 
What do you guys think ? Ready day 57 flower wedding cake I could let it go more I have great circulation going !! They say 9 weeks anyways some people let it go ten opinions ? And I want the couch lock effect sleepy stoned out of my mind so what the longer I wait the better it gets right ?

Yes, that's correct. The more amber trichs you have (ie. the longer you let it flower), the more of a couch stone you'll get.

Mostly clear is a head high, makes some people anxious or paranoid. Mostly amber, couch-lock. I shoot for mostly cloudy, with 10-15% amber.

You really need a loupe, scope or even a good magnifying glass to tell accurately. You want to look good and deep within the buds to get a real accurate picture of the situation.

Great job by the way!

So I’m told amber is when the THC has actually degraded so why would this have the effect I’m looking for which seems to be stronger to me (someone who’s Been smoking for 20 years) way too much daily and my tolerance is through the roof only the really strong shit gets me high ....so this is what I should do keep waiting and let it almost all turn amber ? And it seems like a win win to me I get the high I want and more yield for waiting obviously it will get way bigger also...let me know what you think you get the drift of what I want as long as I have good circulation I should be fine right ? I mean 10 weeks would that be too much ? Is they’re a point where I should really say ok that is too long .. I wouldn’t mind waiting I have my own other weed I want the high I want and more yield what’s my cut off ? Lol

The THC isn't degraded; it's converted to CBN, which has relaxing, couch-lock body-high qualities.

Once the trichomes start getting dark amber, all the hairs will follow suit.

Going all amber does slightly reduce some of the psychoactive properties though, but the body high is awesome.

As I said, I usually go 10-15% amber, the rest cloudy. I find that's a perfect mix for me and my usage.

I always let mine go till the leaves start dying not saying they wouldn’t be great if you chopped them now but I think waiting 1 more week at least would help your yield greatly.

Thanks for the info !! I love to try different things so I’ll cut a little now and most later just too see the difference I’ve actually chopped a few already to Practice curing which I’m very worried about could anyone give me some good curing advice??

Thanks and I will cut a little now and most when leaves are dying a little nervous about the cure it’s where experience really shows I’m sure !! Any advice?!

True but good weed is easy as hell to cure ... lotta people blame cures for bad taste but hey it sure help to have a great cure . My thing with curing is you have to let it dry slow .
You can read up and see most people say wait 10 days but I usually tend to give them about 5 days in cool temps . The key is you don’t wanna dry it out. And remember bigger bud take longer to dry then smalll buds . I like to keep my temps around 60 to 70 degrees and humidity close too 50 as possible.
You’ll get a feel for dryness after some time ...
