I just wish the bud i grew got me high.

ONly thing I would have to go by is this picture. And in this picture the only thing I have to go by is the color of the calayx hairs. Which appear to be plenty ripe, to which maybe you waited long enough to harvest.

So now nothing you can do except apply a proper cure to them.

Yea these buds are a week into drying already. Thanks for any help.

lemme get a clone of that white widow from the bicentennial.

This guy's a joke, he posts 5 pages of rubbish and then shows some air nuggets. Has he even mentioned the lighting that he uses, temps, nutes, etc? My favorite was "It's got crystals and it smells good" well it must be done right? He starts spouting about how she should have chopped 8 weeks FROM SEED, Then it takes him like 3 pages to divulge he's growing AN AUTO STRAIN. Clearly he's beyond the realm of us just telling him whether or not he's "ready to chop" Is he trying to REVEG plants or what? His posts are nonsense, I'm all for helping people but this is ridiculous.

What about the scientific studies done that have proven it is more potent in every facet? Seems like every "older" person I know smokes dirt. But dank is rampant and easilly accessible. Seems like the old people are content with schwaggy schwagg schwagg schwazzle. If we ever toss a bag at one of our buddies dads or something that smokes, he get's knocked on his ass by smelling it.

Why don't you show us some studies about this. How can a plant that has ruderallis as one parent be more potent than sativas or indicas when the genetics of the ruderallis does not contain thc. This sounds like a statement based on opinion not facts. Auto flowering plants are not as potent as indica or sativa or hybrids of the two and never will be.

I am old, and smoke only world class weed, you don't know what you are talking about. You could learn something about MJ by listening to a few "older" people who have decades more knowledge than you. Most of what you call dank, I would call "day weed". Try smoking some landrace genetics and get ripped for 5-6 hours not 15-30 minutes.

It's because you can breed plants in a way that bring the favourable traits of one parent out. Please inform yourself on breeding before you make yourself look ignorant. It's not just a bunch of columbians and foreigners tossing seeds in a field and harvesting 7 months later, people nowadays know what they're doing.

Decades of knowledge that is behind the times, is worth less than the scwhag that you'd grow with it.

And I don't even know what you're talking about 15-30 minutes try 6 hours. The shit that oldies smoke here gets you high for 10 minutes and leaves you with a headache, it's garbage. And take it for what it's worth I won't post any pics to "back it up" but my shit lasts longer than "30 minutes" (I lol'd when I read that)

I mean, I just snapped a few gravity bongs of medical silver haze and bubblegum and that happens multiple times a day, whoyoutalkintobro?

I have deemed this grow another failure unfortunately. I think i know what i did wrong. Correct me if i'm wrong please. My bud still smells like a plant. I think it should've been mostly yellow. I put in complete darkness for a week, but it wasn't dead at all. I will also flush the plants more frequently and flush them with twice as much water as i did with the speed devil. I have noticed my Kandy kush and skunk are doing excellent. They have bud forming everywhere in week 2 of flowering. Thats improvement for me. The problem is my white widow is lagging behind due to the problems it's had. It's not near where it should be due to the fact the other 2 are far more developed and I am moving away from using foxfarm nutes. I think they messed up my speed devil and white widow, delaying its growth. I think personally that the fox farm line is kind of like miracle grow because it burns plants easily. Any opinions to improve?

The spots on the white widow are copper colored. They started on the bottom fan leaves. any ideas if it's nute burn?

I bought ionic nutes to use.

Please help me.

You're beyond help, and nothing you say makes any sense nor would it be recommended by any experienced cannabis grower, anywhere. Good Luck.

No dude you are. I'm just trying to learn everything. You just don't shit out talents dude. I'm telling everything so people could get the clearest picture possible of my situation. I expect to be wrong. That's why i come on here to get advice.

I have had problems with FF burning my very small seedlings. That's why I start all my seeds in MG organic soil. Then transplant into FF later.

I still have a hard time seeing what problems you could be having. Growing is pretty simple to accomplish the basic part, which is to grow bud that produces good smoke and a decent high. All the other advanced things can come later.

But seriously, start a journal with pics and everything. I'd love to follow along.

if it has crystals and you are not getting high then maybe you developed a disease/immunity. because that makes no sense. THC gets people high....

The metabolic chain that leads to THC starts when geranyl pyrophosphate combines with olivetolic acid, in order to create cannabigerolic acid (CBGA). This carboxylic acid is the shared precursor of all the three major cannabinoids that can be found in the plant; THC, CBD and CBC.

Possibly he harvested prior to the precursor elements in the trichome heads even became CBGA that then would become THCA, CBDA and CBCA let alone becoming THC, CBD and CBC. Or maybe he harvested when there was CBGA but no THCA, CBDA or CBCA, let along THC, CBD and CBC.

If at least to the point of THCA, CBDA and CBCA he would get high because heat, as in the temperature of burning for smoking will cause complete decarboxylization and that would turn THCA into THC and CBDA into CBD and CBCA into CBC, along with doing the same for other cannabinoids, thus producing a high.

But it is likely that he harvested at or before the CBGA stage, and definitely not after .. or he would have gotten high.

Just because trichome heads exists does not mean THC and other cannabinoids exist.

I feel your pain bro....
I been there ....
My first harvest was shit... the buds never devoloped well....but i had an amazing run threw veg....
It happens your your new to growing its bound to happen .... many people get lucky ther first time ...
But i was working with cfls and one bottle of nutes and a t5... so i was just learning u could say ....
The bud wasnt even curable cause i newt burned it...even tho i had one bottle of nute.....
Well i learned something ... so all in all is was a good experience.....

My next gro was a lil better smokable buds looked really nice....cause i bought more newts and a 400 watter.....
But the taste suckked cause the cure was off .....i over dried some and overdried some .....

but the third grow was awesome .... i knew allot more and got some refutablabe strains ...one was kandy kush...

By the fourth grow it was a cake walk and i had some of the best smoke ever ....even tho my grow is average.... i just have lots of expierience...b this time ....

And even now its gona be number 8 and even tho i still run into problems sometimes ....i usually get reallly potent weed....

I think what happened in your case is your probly at a high tolerance and u smoke good meds ....
And your still new to treating plants ... and even tho u said it didnt get u high im sure someone will probly get high off it.....
Id say it takes about two grow before u get dank ,,,,unless you have great equipment or lots of cash to spend....on stufff...

Either way if its not getting u there it probly wont even after a good cure.... just be happy for what u learned ....
And dont think its the genetics....Ive grown random dank from bagseeds .... some had crappy phenos..or not very satisfying flavors that i prefered....but it would always take u there....

So all in all i respect that u can say yeah i fuct up.... it sucks whe n that happens ... and its hard to share that with others....
Cause theyll laugh and say u have no idea what your doing.... but now you do .... you failed and your a better person for it.....

Just remember ...to suceed ... first u must succeed at failure....

I will have a bunch of pictures up in a couple minutes. I took a good amount to help clarify the problems. My plants are good until flowering usually, but these are good. I was finally able to get a ppm meter today and i'm confused now because i thought My ph was to low and that was why my speed devil was deficient. But this ppm meter i bought indicates that i was not putting near the amount of nutes i should have. I'm going to flush them and add the new nutes i just purchased. Does that sound right? thanks for the help.

If you want help, then you have to tell people what your system is. What is your objective? What do you use for lighting? Ventilation? Soil or hydro? Pictures are worth a thousand words.

There are a million potential reasons that your weed would be bunk. If I had to guess, I'd say insufficient lighting and ventilation, but it's only a guess because I don't know what you're doing.
