and so the pugs can get nasty lol

Speaking of dogs and weed. I just ran a batch of hash more a friend. Lots of his trim had dog hair in it, Gross.

Is that afgani bullrider i see?

Just wanted to say thanks FDD. I have two girls for my first grow and their hairs are just starting to turn red so this was just what I needed. The only thing i would like to know is which hydro system is the best if any. I did the ebb and flow because it was easy to build and pretty cheap for me. Do you know when to flush also. I can't find anything on this? thanks.

Has anyone grown any green house seeds before?

i only do dirt.

yeah dirt is harder too do but the bud is alot sweeter

hey ive heard u can trim before harvest like 2 weeks and it increases resin count i wana kno how u would do it

How many resins are on your plant now?

ON SOME COLAS THERES MORE AND ON OTHERS NOT SO MUCH I WANT TO HAVE EQUALLY ALOT OF THEM ALL OVERTHE PLANT cause who doesnt like frosty bud

Look into Uncle Ben's technique of progressive harvesting. Good luck!

Mine are semi-frosty. Smell so fuckin good though. Im waitin on my hygrometer
so I can try and get my humidity right for dry process. I want the best possible
taste at the end.

ya didnt find anything bout harvesting with UB either just toppin

I will add pic of a plant i trimmed 2 weeks before harvest last year. It did continue to ffrost up a bit, never showed a sign of dying "strain unknown", or struggle . Turned out to be an earthy flavored fire ass plant.

I just searched for UB (of course), harvest, progressive, etc. Not finding it anywhere, including on Google. (Also checked UB's threads, and tried to sift through his posts.) Do you have this bookmarked or are you subbed to it, etc.? I already planned on "progressive" harvesting to compensate for disability and most likely starting a project I can't finish on my own (and unable to rely on help from others), but I'd love to see UB's take on this. Thanks in advance!

Sorry guys ...what I meant to say was that UB is a proponent of progressive harvesting. I don't think he actually has any threads on the subject. He's a really nice guy so I'm sure if you sent him a PM or 2 asking for his advice, he'd help you out. Good luck!

nice buds man.. my first grow i hope mines come out just as good

Thought I'd throw my 2 cents in...I use a vacuum sealer attachment for jars and recently openned a jar from 5 years ago from the bottom of my freezer. Threw in a carrot curl for a day after opening and found it tasted just about like I remembered it the day it first finished drying. Other friends have had some long lasting buds this way as well. Kinda like a time capsule in my garage chest freezer.

Nice thread fdd2blk

When trimming extra leaves off, do you keep them for anything or do you toss them? I don't have any budds yet just alot of leaves so I'm keeping them trimmed a little.
