    Got a big pile of trim & want to make dry ice hash - what prep needed?

    Pics attached. Do i need to chop it up? Put it in a blender? I have a 220 mesh bag & access to dry ice. My first harvest - all suggestions gratefully accepted.

    Will these rescue an over-dried crop?

    I let my buds hang-dry a little too long (they're up from 50% to about 55% rh now that they've been in the jars for a week). I just read about a humidifying device called Drymistat Humidifier Tube that looks like it might revivatate 'em. Anyway, I ordered a few. Anybody have any experience...

    Over-dried, I think. Any way to fix it?

    Thanks, Blunt, I'll give that a try:)

    Over-dried, I think. Any way to fix it?

    I hung my trimmed buds (still on stems) on kite string clotheslines in a closed, dark tent with good ventilation but no air blowing directly on the plants right after cutting them down. RH in the tent was a steady 50%, temp 80F to 85F. After about 5 days, the stems were bending with a slight...

    Best RH for cured bud?

    Yeah, it seems a bit crispy to me, too. I hung it to air-dry in a grow tent, in the dark, with 240cfm ventilation, nothing blowing directly on the plants. RH in the tent was a pretty steady 50%, temp about 80F. I did the "snap test" every day, but the stems always seemed to bend. Various...

    Best RH for cured bud?

    Here are some pics of the buds in cure. 51%RH. Loaded with trichs, but they foxtailed during final week of bloom. Is this a finished product? How is its value compared to tight nugs? Is 51% a good RH for long-term storage, or do they need longer cure? I'm just a nervous newbie looking for...

    Best RH for cured bud?

    OK, My first grow is harvested, trimmed, dried on the "clothesline" for a week (Breaks, but not a full snap) and stored in mason jars. I have one of those stick rh/temp meters tucked into one of the jars, move it around every day, and burp jars for about 1 hour/day. Rh has been a pretty steady...

    write protection

    There isn't that much to those things. Most likely the write-protect switch is broken mechanically inside the plastic housing, and there's no practical way to fix that. Outside chance; try rinsing the thing by swishing it around in isopropyl alcohol and let it dry thoroughly before trying it...

    Can someone tell me how to upload a few pics from my gallery on my pc to an album?

    The instructions in the FAQ are correct, but here's the deal: When viewing your newly-created but empty album, MOUSE OVER TO THE RIGHT END OF THE ALBUM TITLE BAR, and there you will see "Upload Pictures," invisible til you mouse over it due to a poor choice of contrast colors. Once you get to...

    Did they hermie

    Do you think the looks of the foxtail bud would decrease it's value?:confused: I was hoping to sell some to offset the costs.

    Question about cost of electricity

    Here in Florida it's .12 per kwh. I run 2 1000W HPS in alternating 12-hour shifts, so it's like running 1 lamp 24/7. Rates are .12/kwh for the 1st 1000kwh and .132 for each kwh above 1000. So I use 24kwh per day, 30 days a month = 720 kwh per month. at .12 per kwh it's $86.40. BUT, my power...

    G13 Haze, definitely sativa

    Did they hermie

    Yeah.\, temps have been kinda high, 80+ F for most of bloom. I ask again - is this bud OK?

    Did they hermie

    So I harvested today, and I notice that at least one plant has buds that are loose and internal structure is like a cluster of grapes. Are these males? The other plants have tight buds, no "grapes". The buds in question are very sticky & strong smell - if they are males, are they still good...

    Lights or no lights when flushing?

    Makes sense. OTOH, since they're flushed, I might as well as cut. There's no real evidence that darkness prior to harvest makes any difference, so I'm going to cut after three days flush with ph water, on the usual 12/12. I'm not impatient, it's just that the trichomes tell me it's time to...

    Best USB Scope?

    I've got a Zorb USB microscope that takes nice sharp pics, but it's only 30X, not enough to get a good idea of the state of the trichomes. Anybody know of a better USB scope that goes to at least 60X? I have a pocket 60X-100X scope that shows the trichomes nicely, but can't take pics through...

    Lights or no lights when flushing?

    Well, I've grown these ladies hydro, 100% chemical, flood/drain, GH Flora series. I've flushed for 3 days on straight ph'd water, and I'm cutting in the morning. Will give a smoke report after dry/cure. There seems to be a lot of controversy around flushing; I'm curious about when & how...

    Help! Science Project with my Son

    Well, damn, I guess this is why there's a Scientific Method. I was sure that a controlled indoor grow would out-produce an outdoor grow. We'll do it anyway, chips fall where they may.:?
