i always like to start with good beans and then give them everything that they need... lots of light, water when they get thirsty and food when they get hungry.. i'm not trying to over simplify it, but sometimes we are looking for that magic cure when all that is needed is the basics.. learn to read your plans and let them tell you what they want and most likely you will have very happy plants that will in turn make you very happy..

Its pretty much is going to come down to experience to get consistent dank results. A little time spent and a few seasons growing the same strain really improve your ability to interpret that plant.

Potency is stress related as well as genetics. Most plants I have grown have had the ability to be really potent. The more stress you introduce into the situation will result in lower quality buds. Density, quantity, and potency are all effected.

The best way to grow dank bud is to give a good girl the best environment possible for its growth.

I reduce watering drastically during the last month of flowering.

One of the resin glands' functions is to reduce water loss on leaf surfaces.

I don't stop watering. I just reduce it from optimum to minimum.

BUT, as some have mentioned, starting with good genetics will make a bigger difference.

Most of these stoners are right. A lot depends on genitics. Good strong Paremts such as White Widow or The NY Diesel will produce good plants with heavy trichs and killer smells. But temps, lighting, PH, and nutes all come into play. If some 10th grader tyhinks he will grow some kind of even half decent bud in his bed room or balcony will be highly dissapointed. It aint. easy growing with controlled ewnviroments, with proper vent & lighting & temps, But when it all comes together its a smelly joy when harvest times coms around

genetics plays the biggest key...... you can grow elite genetics in slightly less then perfect conditons and has long has it lives and buds will be better then any schwagg grown under w/e amount and spectrums of light, with best nutes, co2, the whole deal....

Ive done 2 grows, and im on my 3rd.

Both my first 2 grows, the buds turned out excellent. Both times they were near the best buds I've ever smoked.

So I don't really know what im doing but whatever it is it is working. Maybe I have just been lucky. But that said I have spent a shtload of time reading up (like a few hours every day, for the last 6 months) so that might have something to do with it.

I use Canna nutes, and I suspect the key might be the Canna Boost Accelerator that I use. I don't know for certain but at $170 for a 1 litre bottle it has to be good shit right? I've heard really good things about it but I've used it on all my grows so I don't have anything to compare it too.

Heres a cola from my last grow:

I love hash.. I got bubble bags..But what this dude is asking is how to grow good bud. Well I wouldnt get a seed from willies reg bag and think I will plant it and grow good bud. Buy decent seeds and have a controlled growing enviroment Good ventalation and you sir can grow with the pros. I have found DWC to be very easy and care free as long as you can check on em from day to day keeping the light going for veg. then switch to timer when shes big enough, i HAVE HAD MORE TIMER PROBLEMS from Home Depot cause I buy the cheap ones. I plug 2 400 watt lights into a 3 way thats plugged into a one socket timer plug. Our elect. always goes out here in S. Fla.
and will effect your plants but I have been lucky.

Its all determined by genes, the plant determines which cannaboids it will
produce based on it's genes and if more cannabinoids happen to be THC than
so be it. Selective breeding and cannabinoid testing will increase THC ratio.

I have super lemon haze, church , and black berry kush. these are the strains ive liked best so far so these are what ive kept ive tried others and these were the best 3...the buds are good and no one is complaning except me. i smoke a lot so maybe that is the problem...but my weed doesnt seem to usually affect me as strongly or longly as some of the 20$ a gram o.g. kush from the dispensires. Is their something i could be doing during the grow OR THE CURE to get max potency? im not a total newb ive read all the basics...thanks
