In the 8 years I have been growing, I have never tried a dominate sativa strain. Any suggestions? I also need to know where it can be bought in the U.S., preferably with Paypal. I usually buy from the DC exchange. In other words, I need to know where I can actually get it. In the spring, I am...

I have two questions. 1.) Is there a a formula for how much light is needed to cover a square ft. area based on watts? For now, I need to stick with watts because my lights are old and watts is the only number I have access to. If I end up with a ballpark figure that is good enough for right...

Does anyone have a recommendation for a bud trimming device? There are cheap ones like the one below. https://www.ebay.com/itm/VIVOSUN-16-19-inch-Manual-Leaf-Plant-Bud-Flower-Bowl-Trimmer-Twisted-Spin-CutUS/143384191624?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144 Then there are others priced higher which...

Those in favor of legalizing never work together. Groups like NORML have still not figured out that those who work within the formal political system never get there way in governments. Groups like this turn into mostly social clubs where folks fantasize their representatives are paying...

I have been using Chinese Blurples about like the ones in the Ebay ad below. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2Pack-Morsen-1000w-Full-Spectrum-Led-Grow-Light-Indoor-Hydroponic-Plant-Veg-Lamp/183722491156?hash=item2ac6b6bd14:g:V0MAAOSwgbVdIM90 My standard approach with emerging technology is to shoot no...

I typically use infused coconut oil but am going to make a tincture for comparison. I prefer to use something other than alcohol but I understand alcohol tinctures are about 4 times a potent as those made with glycerin. Would it work to make an alcohol tincture, add glycerin and then boil off...

First let me say that I am not a student. I am not sure I would recommend this to anyone under 25. It is often said that marijuana is harmful to the memory. It does interfere with memory while under the influence but it doesn't seem to be permanent. I find that studying while high is actually...

I am curious if any of you folks make your own soil or refurnish soil you have already used? Normally I use a mix made by Fafard. It is about like Foxfarm but has no nutrients. I have no complaints and the cost is reasonable. I am going to start growing outside a little next year and would...

I have a spot in my back yard where no one has gone to in the 15 years I have lived there. I also have a lot of extra seeds. Just as an experiment I am starting a few seeds right now to grow outside. There is plenty of light still for vegetative as I am way south. I am guessing it will be 6...

So far, I have only grown indica based strains. Is there a strain I can grow with some significant sativa characteristics that won't get over 5 ft. for an indoor grow? I have some free time and space and would like to try it. I need something that can be purchased from a U. S. dealer. It needs...

My experience with the DC Exchange has been very good. That being said, finding the exact right seed to grow is not easy. It would be good to know which strains others like and what they are used for. There are hundreds of strains. Most of them seem to be new.

We all know that when a female plant is pollinated THC levels are compromised. When only one or two female flowers on a branch are pollinated, does that only effect that one branch branch or the whole plant with respect to THC levels? In general, is there a rule of thumb for just how much THC...

I am always looking for seeds good for insomnia and anxiety. I make infused oil. Right now I am growing Flaming Alien and Midnight Fantasy from Cabin Fever. These are not bad. The biggest criteria is whether or not the genuine strain can be purchased and that it is regular as apposed to...

What are current thoughts on which is better for growing mylar or plain white. I have used both and don't detect a big difference.

Sometime back I switched from T5 CFL lights to LED both in vegetative and flowering. The results in vegetative have been amazing. Although LEDs in flowering are adequate, the results turn out to be no better or even possibly worse than with the old CFL's. I am putting beautiful almost perfect...

I am not looking for advice quite yet since my grows are turning out satisfactory. I am interested in knowing the degree to which leaves die off in flowering is some other's grows. I do get quite a few dead leaves, especially in the last 2 to 3 weeks before harvest. Has anyone gained anything...

I started raising earthworms in my grow room a while back. Mostly this was because the worm bins absorb a lot of the smell. The bins themselves smell kind of earthy but don't stink at all. The worms love cannabis leaves also so there is no need to discard anything. Soak culled male plants...

Any thought or comments on these strains will be appreciated. 1.) Midnight Fantasy (Farmhouse Genetics) 2.) Flamin Alien (Cabin Fevor) This is the first time in five years I have tried new seed. These are getting close to harvest. Just getting a handle on what to expect.

A lot of folks who grow in Texas have started just throwing their surplus seeds out of their car windows when they pass an open field. Some folks shoot them out of their windows with pea shooters. That isn't making it legal but it sure will make it available. A few are having helium balloon...

I am wondering if any of you folks add anything other than cannabis when making infused oil? There are other herbs and substances I take and it seem like it would work well to add them to infused oil and take them along with that. Do any of you folks do anything like that? As natural as all...
