    nanners genetic?

    So a while back i posted about some clones that i really needed to survive that were taken 4 weeks into flower. All the clones made it and the bud that was harvested from the plants they came from is insane, so thats great, 2 phenos im really excited to have. One problem, during harvest i...

    Need to preserve concentrate for 8-10 months

    Im in the middle of harvesting over 2lb and this is all personal that will take 8-10 months to consume. Probably only a couple ounces will be kept as flower. Plan was to jist press a ton of rosin but will i be able to preserve it that long? Should i just vacuum seal and freeze? I could just jar...

    high volume rosin pressing

    Im about to squish about a pound of flower into rosin with my 10 ton 4 x 6. I have a pre press for doing 2x4 bricks with up to 20g or so in them, but i just cant match the return that i get with 7g in a bottle tech config. I seem to do ok running 2 bottle tech side by side for 14g per press, but...

    thc testing for home grower

    Just curious, is there a feasible way for me to have a couple strains tested? I know that accurate test equipment is very expensive, but are there other cheaper options that will get within a few percent? Also, what about sending off for testing? What does that cost and how does it work legally...

    Flower rosin vs hash rosin thc yeild

    Im about to harvest a decent amount of flower, at least a pound will be going to concentrate. I already have a 10 ton rosin press that i have experience with and i know i can get roughly 15 to 20% yeild. I was considering saving myself a lot of work and doing fresh frozen bubble, then press into...

    I need these clones to survive, taken during flower

    I have 4 plants at 40 days into flower. 2 grape ape and 2 blueberry (all from seed). I wasnt really looking to get any mothers going right now but at the 4 week mark, 2 of my plants, one grape ape and one blueberry started looking really amazing. Smell is insane, like candy. Trich coverage is...

    Spider mites outdoor

    Started growing last winter indoors with seeds that i ordered. Never had any spider mite issues. This summer i decided to try outdoor which went well other than the spider mites. Every plant which was in 3 separate locations on my property all got spider mites. The couple plants i had in my...

    Why do we feed, water, water with soil?

    It seems to be generally accepted that plants being fed in soil should follow a schedule similar to this. Water with nutrients, then just water a couple times. We dont do this in coco or hydro, rather we give a steady consistent amount of nutrients that the plant is happy at. So why in soil...

    science of "jar tech"

    There seems to be many variations of this method but in general it seems to be the heating of a concentrate at relatively low temps for longer periods in a sealed container that will build pressure. Ive tried this with my rosin to prepare it for vaping and it actually seems to somewhat work, but...

    Trichomes, plant matter, terps, wax, etc. What is contained where?

    Just trying to get a better understanding of concentrates and the different methods for extracting different parts of the plant. So first off, what is in a trichome? Obviously the thc, but what else? Is this where the terpenes are? I would assume yes since live hash rosin retains terps and...

    making vape carts at home

    Been doing a lot of research on vape carts. Originally the plan was to start with rosin, but it seems that its just not the best option since you need to winterize which kinda defeats the purpose of pressing in the first place. I already have my rosin press and its making some awesome dab...

    Massive pheno variation when ordering seeds

    Back in the day when i grew 10 years ago, i got cuttings from a caregiver i knew. Always knew exactly what the bud was gonna be and i kept my strains for years with 100% consistency. Recently started growing again just for personal and my experience so far with ordering seeds has not been great...

    8hr of sun outdoor vs indoor

    bought my first house last spring (luckily just in time), and i have a kick ass fenced garden area which i built a small greenhouse in. I have a few zkittles autos im getting ready to throw out there but im wondering if its even gonna be worth it. I would say the greenhouse gets maybe 6-8hr of...

    Outdoor dwc

    Just popped a few zkittles autos to throw out in the greenhouse. I was gonna just throw them in some pots of dirt, which im not really experienced at. Always done dwc. Then i thought, why not do dwc? Power of light from the sun combined with power of dwc root system. Should be impressive. I...

    Dirt ph

    Doing a few outdoor this summer, actually my first time growing in dirt, always been indoor dwc. I bought a few bags of dirt, glacier gold growers blend. Really popular stuff around here (montana, flathead valley), everybody seems to swear by it. Started a few plants in pots. They are doing ok...

    Light burn or?

    Growing 4 plants in dwc. 3 plants same strain, different phenos, plus one plant completely different strain. Plants are pretty large and 2 weeks into flower. 3 weeks ago or so i noticed a couple leaves here and there getting some burned edges, nothing bad. Took the nutes down a tad and stayed on...

    Always feed heavier if ec drops?

    Running rdwc, 4 plant 5x5, cultured solutions nutes, 1 week into flower, plants are happy. In the past ive always monitored ec to determine what plants want. If i feed and ec stays even over next few days, ec is perfect, if ec drops, they want it stronger, if it rises, ec is too high. Pretty...

    Measuring leaf surface temp

    My grow room is to a point now that i can very accurately control all variables. Humidity, temp, reservoir temp (dwc), co2. This means i have the ability to really nail a perfect vpd at all times but to do so properly i need accurate leaf surface temp. I have a cheap infrared gun but i dont know...

    Sealed with co2, do i ever need to vent?

    My room is all ready to switch over. Light has its own isolated venting, room has ac and dehumidifier. Already tested it sealed and i have no problem holding temp and humidity where i want without venting. Is there any other reason to vent occasionally if temp and humidity are good? What about...
