i dunno if i understand peep's terminology around the country. So when people refer to mids what are they talking about?
smoking on schwag now I paid mid prices for. Fucking rip off dealers .. Doesn't even get me high.. Like smoking fan leaves-Grade A sensimilla
-Mids, maybe slightly seeded or premature
-shwag, commercial bricked, seeded
well i think i came off a little wrong there am not saying mids are bad but "from what i have learned" guys who used to grow back in ohio used to grow indies i was partial to his Nl, and you could buy his grade A shit all stinky and sticky , and you could buy mids which he had a grow room for where he only took em half the flower stage (for real he said most people could only afford mids and it kept cash coming in) and when he would pollinate he would wait a while until he had large amounts and give it to people who delt to the regie/shwag buyers, so thats how i got it. but if you like your pollinated bud good for ya bro am not hating, also i din't mean the pollin needs to be on the trics i sayed the plant makes it to grab pollen,I remove the seeds.. They're big round brown things they tend to stand out.
On the flip side by that scale i could take something really really shitty with low percentages and this and that, and so long as i didn't pollinate it, it's A grade? No, it's sensimilia but it's still shit weed.
And i've heard many conflicting opinions about how plants react when pollinated, from your statement to that they are more potent as they create more THC to protect their seeds. It was also my understanding that pollen needs to be applied to the calyx hair, and not the trichome for pollination.
The male plant produces pollen sacks which, when ripe, burst
and scatter pollen to the female plants. The female plant produces
white hairs at the internodes and top cola (head) of the plant during
flowering. These hairs (pistils) begin to curl slightly and grow longer
and thicker. The top cola should carry the most pistils. These pistils
are sticky too touch (do not touch them too much! they also contain
your much wanted THC) and begin to cover in resin over the flowering
period. The reason for the stickiness is that it is used by the female to
catch falling pollen. If the female plant is not pollinated she will try to
grow more sticky areas. Hence the results of a sinsemilla
crop........Bigger and Better Buds!
