    Early finish? Check my trichs!?

    I chopped it on Sunday as planned and actually see about 30% amber trichs on most of the buds. Sweet. I am glad I didn't go too early. Some have clear, of course, but I do think a majority are right were I wanted them to be. Calyx hairs were also mostly turned. Thanks for all your help, guys!

    Early finish? Check my trichs!?

    ktmac: sounds like you know more than me on the molasses/sugar feeding. I've done probably a dozen grows and have used it in more than half as a form of "free carbohydrates," which another grower told me about. Something about easily absorbed food for bulking and energy--sort of like high...

    Early finish? Check my trichs!?

    Thanks! No, I stopped feeding about 2-2.5 weeks ago except for molasses. My last watering I did not provide any molasses. All organic ferts (fox farm big bloom) I took a small nug about a week ago, bag-dried it and smoked it last night. It was pretty good and did the trick. Not crazy potent...

    Early finish? Check my trichs!?

    Thanks guys. Lights just went out about 1 minute before I snapped this, so I had to use flash and be quick. Does this shed any additional light on its progress? I realize you can't see calyx hairs in this photo but I'd say maybe 10-20% of them are light green/clear with half or more orange/light...

    Early finish? Check my trichs!?

    Here is another photo taken 5 days ago that might help. Looks like a couple clears with mostly cloudy trichs and an amber or two? Should I chop?

    Early finish? Check my trichs!?

    I am growing CBD Shark Haze 1:1 from seed in soil. The seed was germinated in late May and the plant was introduced to 12/12 on August 1 (56 days ago). Some preflowers were showing before I switched the lights, since I vegged it for so long. Under the loupe I see some clear, lots of cloudy, and...

    At 4 weeks flower INSIDE, can I move OUTSIDE?

    Hi! I am at 4 weeks flower on one indoor plant (indica dominant Shark Shock CBD) under a single 400w HPS. Our days are now just about 13 hours long where I live with mild temperatures. I have a few outdoor plants which are also beginning to flower, but I want to free up my indoor tent for a new...

    CBD Shark Haze - Medcreational Grow

    Short update for now. I added additional studs and dry walled it all in. Next up is sanding, retexturing, sanding some more, and painting. Beans have not yet broken soil. Our business has picked up so this hobby has taken more of a backseat than I'd like for it to, but without money the project...

    CBD Shark Haze - Medcreational Grow

    Hi everyone! LB here gearing up for another exciting grow! I've been growing off-and-on for the past 10 years and can never seem to stray from the hobby for more than about six months at a time. Even though I don't consume more than a few grams per month, I just love having an abundance of...

    I found a straight-walled glass tube at goodwill, can I use it for 400w?

    Thanks all. You guys are right--cheaping out in this case is not worth the potential headache/destruction/etc...! I'll order one now.

    I found a straight-walled glass tube at goodwill, can I use it for 400w?

    I have a metal bracket to hold the lamp inside the tube. I've made a very similar one before with a 6" straightwall glass, but unfortunately dropped it when I was dismantling the tent (at least I finished the grow!). My concern is that this one is only 4" in diameter so the bulb will be closer...

    I found a straight-walled glass tube at goodwill, can I use it for 400w?

    It's a 4" diameter glass tube x 24" long. It is not a bake-a-round or a hurricane glass tube--it's just a basic, 4" diameter glass tube. I'm wondering if this will work as a cooltube setup or if the 400 will be too hot for the glass. It is not pyrex. Will this work? Stock image but looks...

    Eliquid using QWISO?

    Thanks Lio! I will try it again, and will let it air evaporate without heat. After I finished scraping the pyrex for the remaining concentrate I realized I really didn't add much to the storebought eliquid--I had about 90% of what I started with left over of the concentrate. Maybe I'm working...

    Eliquid using QWISO?

    Well I took about a gram of nice bubble hash, mixed it with a shot or so of everclear 190 proof and shook it vigorously in a mason jar. I let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, then poured it into a pyrex tray. I used a second pyrex tray to create a doube-boiler, and heated it up to about 190. The...

    Eliquid using QWISO?

    Thanks lio. I'm getting too old to sort through all of the acronyms and zillions of different techniques and discussions on extracts and concentrates. Makes my head spin and my eyes hurt! Back in my day there was just bud and finger hash!!! Maybe my questions are too unconventional, though. My...
