First off, I'd like to apologize for never posting... These forums have been more of a guide for information to me rather than somewhere I can post my own thoughts. I don't normally like to chime in on anything unless I have some sort of relevant info to share. Now I believe I do.
My initial thoughts on the experiment was to see what effects jwh-018 would have, if any, on the cannabis plant and its yield. Seeing as this chemical is still in research categories and only minor research has been done on its uses, I figured this would be a good way to see if introducing jwh-018 through the plants food had any effects on the yield of the plants.
GETTING STARTED
I knew I had to use the same genetic clones and grow under the exact same conditions for the side by side study to have any credit at all. I cloned 6 "green crack" plants off of a mother and set them up under a 400 watt MH for veg and 600 watt hps for flower.
THE PROCESS
Life cycle of the plants stayed standard. They were grown organic with 7-5-5 ferts during veg and 1-15-30 for flowering.
****3 out of 6 plants were subjected to "doses" of jwh******
AT EVERY WATERING!!! these 3 got 50 mg of jwh per gallon of water at every feeding.
During flowering the dose was upped to 65 mg of jwh for every gallon of water.
*****JWH DOSES HALTED DURING FLUSHING*****
THE RESULTS
Plants were labeled with numbers at the beginning of cycle. Plants 1 through three were JWH-018 dosed plants. 4, 5, and 6 were grown normally.
CHECK THIS SHIT OUT!!!
(FOR EACH PLANT)
-Plant by plant analysis of dry bud weighed
-NON-Polar butane extraction on ALL plant material (stalks, leaves, the works)
PLANT 1
39.4 grams of dry bud weight
1.4 grams of sticky brownish,goldish,goop!
PLANT 2 (biggest prettiest one)
43.4 grams of dry bud weight
1.8 grams of the same goo.
PLANT 3
41.1 grams of dry bud weight
1.6 grams of (lighter than the other two) goop yet again.
-----------
PLANT 4
25.7 grams of dry bud weight
.5 grams of thc goop
PLANT 5
28.5 grams of dry bud weight
.7 grams of thc goop
PLANT 6(My runt)
24.1 grams of dry bud weight
.3 grams of (golder than the rest) thc goop
I took a gram of bud from each of the two healthiest plants out of each set of 3 and did another butane extraction for cannies!!!
The plant that was subjected to the jwh gave me .26 mg of sticky goop
The plant that was not subject to jwh gave me a yield of .19 mg of sticky goop
SO NOW THAT I GOT SOME NUMBERS
what does this mean???
