    Budswell (yellow label) ?

    Read alot of good things about this product, and the guys at the local hydro shop spoke highly about it so I picked up a bag and have a couple of questions: 1) Its the yellow label, bloom formula. Label says 0-0.7-0...everything ive read indicates that the label should read 0-7-0. Is this a...

    anyone compress their buds?

    I know...why on earth would anyone compress their nice, fat, frosty buds unless they absolutely had to... I actually just started doing this recently for a couple of reasons: A) I got tired of people asking me if I grew what I was smoking with them myself; B) Also got tired of people...

    Compressed (commerical) vs uncompressed (homegrown)

    So this doesnt apply to everyone obviously, but why the hell are so many potheads, especially older, longterm potheads so clueless when it comes to herb ? One of the people I interact with is always asking me if I see anything "better" around than the sourbubble, critical +, and blueberry that...

    How many times do you process your plant matter (ice water extraction)

    Just curious as to how many times other people process their trimmings when making ice water hash.... I use a bubble now machine, and I used to do 2 extractions (running the machine for 15 minutes each time)..Ive since cut that down to just one 15 minute pass in the machine because the material...

    Proven early finishing strains that are worthwhile..

    Ok folks...As I sit here amid a pile of immature buds that are destined for hash thanks to wet weather and mold, I have realize that if you are guerilla growing in spot that you cant monitor or get to easily, your only hope of having a successful harvest is to try and finish early. By early I...

    Almost a total loss this year.

    All I can say is wow...worst year ever, and I have been growing outdoors guerilla style for 15 years. Two weeks ago I was looking at an estimated (conservative estimate) of at least three pounds. I had blight under control with liquid copper, and had some amazing looking plants, bogbubble...

    Breeding Question

    Ok, so even though I work as a biochemist, and have an MS, I am embarrassed to admit I am horrible when it comes to genetics, so maybe someone here can help me. I have some good genetics that I bought off the 'bay and the 'boo, and am interested in preserving them. Say for example I have a...

    How Much of a Plants Potential Genetically Predetermined?

    Up till now, for all of my grows I have either topped my plants, LST'd, done both, or done nothing at all. Usually what I end up with is a plant with one large cola, and several secondary colas that range anywhere from 1/2 to 1/3 smaller than the main cola. The smoke is always very good...

    Yields: What, if anything am i doing wrong.

    Ive been growing indoors for awhile now, going on ten years since my first grow. The last nine years I vegged under a 250 MH and flowered under a 430 watt HPS, mainly growing AK47, blueberry and hindukush. When flowered at 12-14 inches I would typically get 1-1/5 ozs per plant. This past...

    Non existant partner..what to do.

    So 3-4 years ago I teamed up with someone to do an outdoor grow. We dug holes together, hauled soil, water, nutes etc...The work was split evenly the first couple of years and things went well. This year Im doing 90% of the work and taking 100% of the risk. I used my own vehicle to bring...

    just bought a bag that is way light....

    Since I just smoked the last of my stash, I hit up a friend who Ive known for several years to hook me up. HEs always been a stand up guy towards me, so when he came by to drop off a qp I didnt bother to weigh it until after he left. Once I got around to that, it came up 5 grams short. Not an...
