Hawaii Growers

I wish I kept cuts of her. Five weeks in flower. Almost pau

Blue Hawaiian sister I got gifted from Braddah Dyna. She loves to be all tied up

A room full of blue Hawaiians.

You can still grow out a cutting - just put it under 16/8 light and it will reveg.

Called this one my ugly reveg clone:





She became this:

FYI 2013 ICMAG Cannabis Cup

good to see greyskull enter. outdoor Maui representing up there in Adam!! those things are a trip anyways. my buddy just took second with his amnesia shatter at the Denver cup. that was the same shatter I tasted a few weeks ago on Maui, shit was TOP SHELF. nothing I have tasted is quite like shatter. the complexities of the overall flavors are so intense I can see why people would rather just smoke that than actual flowers. we can't really do it right over here as it doesn't stay shatter for long in our humidity, but a quick one in the fridge and it gets the rigidity back.

alright, looks like male season for me. I got more males in this last seed cycle than in like my last 5 seeds cycles combined lol. not what I wanted at the beginning of long season, but luckily there is still plenty of time to get shit cracking again. aloha Hawaii Growers, imua kakou!!

I don't even understand this chart you put up from IC Mag.....
So the highest average score wins????
Let's look at this example... but reference the table that Surf'd put up for better accuracy



We are looking at the top 3 scores in Best Growers- Indica Category.
Someone please explain to me how their system works...
The score categories are Appearance (A) , Taste (T) , Bouquet (B) , Potency (P), and Overall (O).
The winner, Triangle Kush, had A) 203, T) 195, B) 193, P) 192, O) 193... So an overall score of 193...Total score of 976.....
2nd place, NYCD X GDP, had A) 217, T) 210, B) 229, P) 220, O) 217... So an overall score of 217.... Total score of 1093.....
3rd place, Bubba, had A) 239, T) 201, B) 200, P) 211, O) 209... So an overall score of 209.............. Total score of 1060.....

Obviously the better score in the category is the higher score (see the chart, the lower scores at the bottom are correlated with actual score)..

Someone explain to me why NYCD lost with a higher score.... ???
Obviously they placed the contestants by their total score divided by votes... How do the votes factor?? Why does Triangle Kush have 25 votes and most others have 28 votes (including NYCD x GDP and BUbba).....
Somebody screwed up.....

thehigher scores were tallied with more entries they put in. they would get a higher overall individual score because more votes came in for that one as oppossed to 3 less for the first place. maybe there wasn't enough to go around, or less people were able to cast votes, but it looks like they just divided the overall amount of points by the amount of votes cast, but that's just me either way, the Triangle is Kill bro. i wish i could have kept that one. aloha

in fact the bubba was kill too! i haven't had the other one, but i had the NYCD and that one tasted good. i can only imagine how that would cross out with a nice purple tasting strain mmmmm. i need to get some urkle cross seeds from my friend. shoots

LOL I understand their rationale..
but the way they presented their findings is kind of lame...

For instance.. lets look at the same indicas....
Can you tell off the bat which scores higher on potency???
Triangle or NYCD x GDP ???
Triangle has a score of 192 @ 25 votes
NYCDxGDP has a score of 220 @ 28 votes..

So if you convert 192/x = 25/28 as proportational ratios...
You will see that the Triangle would have a score of 218.4 @ 28 equivalent votes...

But you wouldn't know that NYCD is stronger by just looking at the way they presented their data...
Just poor science

i hear you bro, i am not debating it, you right, shit is wacky at any competition, and i have entered 1 lol. i was over it, even tho i am friends with guys that called my shit bunk when i sent it to america. that category is strictly for icmag growers, not breeders, so there should be more leniency with them i would think. the others should be scrutinized more. i think maybe the way surfd laid it out dosen't explain the variance is all. i can personally testify that the TK and Bubba is all it is cracked up to be and if grown right will pretty much rock the house. i grew out katsu and the other bubba both and they were both killer. i can see TK or Bubba winning easily in this category if grown right. NYCD and NYCDxGDP are probably totally differet animals than originals. i can just imagine. that is the love of the pakalolo. even tho one strain might taste one way, and another might taste another way, crossed together, they may bring something totally different. Honestly my brutha, i am even surprised to see a hybrid compete with those other 2 in that category. it must be something special!! life is too short. don't waste time on bad genetics. grow the best that you can, or the best you can get. if in HI, then trust the guy you smoke off of. i have many that would testify to my weed. even some here if you can believe it. look for good shit, but don't ovelook a friend's shit. keep it real, don't be a dick and maybe yoy muight find something awesome. aloha mau loa, i think it's time for me to tak a break, good luck on the long season everyone, a hui hou.

This is my first plant and growing outdoors. I've noticed that there are these white spots on some of the leaves should I be concerned? I water one gallon every MWF and once a week I use 30ml of medione in the water. It is pretty rainy here in mililani so should I be concerned with mold? Any thoughts or advice would be great

Right now your plant should be ok with a little rain, but once you start getting some heavier nuggets you dont wont them getting wet at all! Some strains do better than others in the rain, but I still rather play it safe than sorry and keep them dry as much as possible.

So the more research I do I think I have thripes on my leaves. I don't have a microscope. So the question is where can I get a handheld microscope or something that will help me look at leaves and what kind of organic stuff to use to get rid of the thripes

Ohanas green house, maybe neem oil will work. I'm not at home so I can't check the label on mine, but I think it will work.

This stuff will take care of those little guys hiding under ur leaves. U can find it at ohanas in kalihi. I meant to post yesterday but forgot. Garantee gone in a day or two. Just mix 1.5 tsp per 16 oz water. I try spray down every other week but stop at 6 weeks in flower. Gonna take some pics of the ladies enjoying some of this beautiful sunshine. Shoots, alojahz.

Yo Dyna, I gotta say thanks bro. I've had this strain going for a year now and I gotta say this is the best she's looked. I know gotta be the flower fert u suggested. Enjoy the great weather braddahs, shoots, alojahz.

Not thrips, will write more later. Damn phone sux. On the plane to Oahu.

Not thrips? Hmmm good thing I haven't put anything on the leaves yet. I do have neem oil. I'm trying to stay organic and right now the plant is coming into its 4th week of flowering. The white specks or spots whatever they are don't move, but I don't have a microscope to see if it is tiny bugs.

I hope one day I can get a plant to look like the pictures I see on the forum. This is my first plant and definitely learning a lot.
