That is exactly what the problem is. The vast majority of growers use HID and it is not because they are conformists. It is because HIDs have enough lumen power to get the job done. LED proponents like to go on about "spectrum" but if spectrum were so very important, then, in theory, HPS HIDs...

Got a free Dinafem Blue Widow seed a while back and cloned it. Smells like somebody threw a skunk into a wood chipper. Put the finished product in a plastic bag and it permeates the bag in no time flat. I get paranoid just thinking about it. But, as soon as anybody smells it they immediately...

Randomly throwing cannabis seeds around and expecting them to grow is a complete waste of effort. If it were so "invasive" as some people believe, the entire country would be blanketed with it. Quite the contrary, so-called ditchweed is uncommon in most of the USA. As any seasoned outdoor grower...

1. IF you subtract the capital cost of the hydroponic system, then I would say it costs more to grow organically using quality products. 2. Never used teas, but I am confident the pre-fab products work fine. 3. It is not less potent, and, depending on the strain, organic product can be superior...

Since the cop did not cite her for DUI, then I would say that there is zero evidence for intoxication. Best not even to mention it. Maybe you can get something out of your small claims system for the damages, but I wouldn't waste much money on a lawyer. IMHO, lawyers are parasites that would be...

1. "It only has X chromosomes and can only produce female plants." 100% pure BS. It can also produce hermaphrodites as anyone who has germinated "feminized" seeds is well aware of. Furthermore, these hermaphrodites will frequently be what the Wikipedia article is referring to as "true...

1. As soon as a female displays male flowers, it is by definition hermaphroditic. 2. Hermaphroditism in "regular" females is not normal or natural, it is an evolutionary survival mechanism. 3. Who says stress is passed down in DNA? The pollen from a hermaphroditic female is genetically different...

I have been a long time user of GH products for a rockwool ebb/flow perpetual table. I used the Maxi series for years but began to have a problem with white slime (pythium?) in my reservoir. H2O2 helped but it is expensive, hard on plastics, and moderately hazardous to work with. Switching to...

As I previously stated, 'And "feminized" seeds are created by inducing hermaphroditism in a "regular" plant.' Chemicals are one method of stressing the plant into a state of hermaphroditism, but they are not the only one. Sorry, but the industrial analogy is like comparing computers to car...

That is correct. And "feminized" seeds are created by inducing hermaphroditism in a "regular" plant. Thereby, any breeding efforts with the progeny of a plant grown from "feminized" seed is going to be at high risk for the expression of this trait.

It is my understanding that if a "feminized" plant is pollinated, either through its own hermaphroditic effort OR the introduction of "regular" male pollen, the resulting seeds will produce hermaphrodites.

I see no reason why the phenotype variation would differ whether the seeds are regular or feminized, excepting the fact that regular includes males and thereby skews the distribution of said phenotypes. The negative characteristics of feminized seeds are simple: 1. If pollinated, the resulting...

Why do you need to say anything? He is a free market merchant and surely experiences the loss and gain of various customers. Considering his occupation, you can be sure that he doesn't want you pissed at him.

It was what Herbies is calling "stealth". This leaves the seeds in the original packaging. Probably "super stealth" would be better, but I don't know. Maybe the tiny plastic bags they use for repackaging "super stealth" seeds are easier to see due to concentration of seeds in smaller package. I...

Just received an order from Herbies that went through Chicago - 8 days total shipping time. Package was a little beat up, but otherwise OK. I last ordered from both Herbies and Attitude in January 2012 with no problems. Herbies has stepped up their game on shipping discretion since then.

"Manley also had published several books on sports statistics and was credited with creating the NBA's Efficiency Index, which is still used by the league." In my view, he should have offed himself prior to creating these....accomplishments. What the fuck could be more boring and useless than...

Once upon a time, I burned my leg badly on a motorcycle exhaust when I laid it down while wearing shorts. Burn was 3" x 6". Ran puss for two weeks and showed no signs of healing, despite all the modern medical BS (including, of course, the silver sulfadiazine). Desperate, somebody convinced me...

Gels, powders, and liquid cloning agents are not needed. I use 1/4 strength or less nutrient solution on rockwool 1.5" unwrapped cubes (or the newer macro-plugs) in a 10x20 flat with humidity dome and have had a 100% success rate since 1993 on several different strains.

Really? What makes you think so? If you are running a constant 2-2.1 EC solution, the only theoretical advantage is that you can start with a lower light height whereby a perpetual light needs to be set in consideration of the maximum mature plant height. However, that may well be offset by the...

Even though they have factories in the US, none of the German car companies has proven to be successful in proportion to the size of the German economy. This is because their cars are designed to only be serviceable at a German car dealership. You get reamed on parts due to same. The local...
