What would be more interesting, using Mental Ray as renderer (it's available in most popular software, like Maya), or one with similar photon-tracing abilities. It's been ages since I used Mental Ray, but I remember trying to model a HID-light, with correct spectrum and all. I could trace...

I stand by what I said, there is no real increase in potency. I say this simply because of experience (blind-tests with my friends), but of course - I MIGHT suck at curing - so I could be wrong. You DO get high more easily though; It tastes better, easier to smoke more and therefore you get...

The general accepted idea/theory as to why curing works (not my text): " You need air and some moisture as they allow the aerobic bacteria to come to life (in the curing jars). They (the bacteria) will consume chlorophyll and make your buds smoke smoother. Less harsh on the throat and...

Could be normal, they are starting to photosyntesize (instead of simply making roots). BUT, I hope they have enough roots to feed themselves.... Are they in soil? How strong are your lights?

Blue light during veg will keep'em shorter (among other things). I've observed this many times (shorter plants), so it's not a myth. I also use MH during first two weeks of flowering (during the stretch), not sure if this helps much though (always done it, so I have nothing to compare to).

How did they progress into this? (Doesn't seem like something that would present itself over night). Also, why the solo-cups (for so long), what about potting up with fresh soil? BTW: When you change light intensity, you also change the plants need for food and water. How fast do they drink...

Seems like the US smoke-screen two-party scam is working great.

Wow.... Sorry about my post then.

Sorry for the noise & no help, but the best forum I've seen regarding concentrates (and edibles) are ICmag (. com). Simply because of the knowlegde of the posters (as in educated about extraction and chemistry - way over my head, but I prefer that over "only" opinions).

Thanks. I see this CBD/CBN confusion everywhere. Maybe it's the similarity in spelling, but it spreads misinformatin. CBD is great for medical use, but aiming for high CBD only using harvest-timing is pointlesss.

I guess you meant CBN, which will always increase after THC peaks, and also during drying/curing anyway (THC->CBN). There will be no more cannabidol (CBD). @OP: I don't think I can give you a better answer, you are the one with the plants. Get a scope for the thrics, chop when you want & learn...

Harvest timing is hard, especially with all these hybrids from seed. Sounds like you know what you're doing anyway. Just keep watching the thrics, chop and learn some more from it (my first grow, I waited too long - yes there really is such a thing).

Deleted (double post).

If it's only a little more pale (but still green), I wouldn't worry. That's normal for new growth. But a picture would help, just in case. If it's yellow - from the petiole and progressing towards tips, I guess Iron-def or high PH. (Or zinc.. etc, really we're just guessing here without a picture).

All this alien talk reminded me that science now has ruled out time-travel, by searching the internet for time-travelers(!): http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2014/01/03/physicists-search-internet-time-travellers_n_4535325.html
