    Your Criteria: Highest THC or Most Trichs?

    I've always preferred purp varieties as they're usually the most effective for managing my pain without leaving me zonked out, they usually hit the balance I like between sedative and stimulating effects perfectly. On the other hand I feel the same about most OG/GSC/GG hybrids as they don't do...

    Your Criteria: Highest THC or Most Trichs?

    This answers your question; I could care less about THC percent or how frosty a bud is as the effects after using it is all that matters. Does it give me the stimulation or sedative effects I need, does it have a high ceiling or limited after a couple hits, can I smoke it for weeks while still...

    Phlizon September Giveaway - PL4500 450W!

    I use a 600w HPS; cmh or LED wasn't a thing when I was buying lights 20 years ago so I'd use mixed HPS and mH in flower to get a better spectrum. With the added PL4500 I'll use it for supplemental lighting for the last month of flowering in my colosseum style vertical grow so they have a...

    Phlizon September Giveaway - PL4500 450W!

    Thank you kindly, I couldn't imagine a better prize to win for my first time. Especially as I really need some extra light in my vertical flowering room as the old 600w HPS isn't cutting it. Can't wait to post pics and share a review, ironically the first LED I bought was one of your pl-1000 a...

    Stellar Collision didn't have any herms out of the 16 seeds I grew. Katsu Pupil had a couple nanner's late in flower on one or two plants out of 6 seeds but nothing to worry about, Bubba Pupil didn't show any herm traits out of the 6 pack. I've only grown collabs with other growers I follow...

    Nspecta is a solid grower, he's another one like Katsu or Dman that I've followed since CW. Dynasty/Prof P I have no opinion of, after looking at his site I remember I stopped following him shortly before dropping MMS on IG as they both seemed drama prone/marketing heavy. Ironically I've got...

    Online clones- CCC (Canadian Clone Consulting) vs GTA Clones

    It really depends on the weather I find, during the summer or winter with extreme heat/cold paying for next day delivery is worth it, during the fall or spring I haven't had many problems using the 2 or 3 day option is fine.

    Spend enough time growing and on the forums and you'll hear sketchy stories about every breeder from dissatisfied customers. What are these supposedly ethical companies that don't heavily rely on marketing? Having grown seeds from most of the big companies it's more smoke and mirrors then...

    Lol, I've followed Rez since he got his Sour D cut and started working it back on CW, I know all about how sketchy he ended up being but you've lost me on how that effects the quality of the genetics in his plants? Enjoy your high horse based on hearsay, rumours and anecdotes. I'm too busy...

    I have no clue who he is. I seem to remember something about a falling out between them after their collab around Mr E Pupil when I first heard about MMS but really don't know much about him. Unless of course I'm mixed up and thinking of someone else as I really could care less about peoples...

    Which of his seeds have you ran and which do you think are better? Saying others claimed he used their seeds is exactly the kind of irrelevant chatter that can't be confirmed either way until we have clearly mapped the genome and can show the relationship between varieties.

    Those kinds of personal opinions have little value to me, by all means live by your own values but as I've said many times the genes are the facts I care about. Is any company ethical when their selling seeds for $5+ when they cost a fraction of a penny to produce? It's a seedy business no...

    The issue is beginners starting from an uneducated, naive point which makes then susceptible to marketing without understanding how prevalent it is in cannabis. Most of what you've said equally applies to the majority of companies out there, including staring his own discord when IG started...

    Nope, it's a function of convenience that branches make easy places to hang an upside down plant from, which is why is the common practice. Just because it's gibberish doesn't mean there's no value even if it's completely unrelated to the theory.

    How to Grow Your Own Stone, the OG grow guide, suggested hanging plants upside down so the resin drains into the leaves/flowers... In a hobby defined by it's illegality with the inflated price dictated by prohibition which creates the perfect storm for marketing to prey on peoples inexperience.

    How much for a pound near you?

    Legalization has killed the prices in Canada. From the legal market oz can be bought for $100-130 consistently with some as low as $80-90 although the regulations compromise the quality of most of it, online from the BM you can get a half pound for as little as $350 at retail. Wholesale I've...

    I've never read a more accurate description of the online pot forums lmao... Gossip and marketing are a brutal combination, just look at all the people who still dump ice on their pots before harvesting to "shock" the roots and force the plant to produce trichomes which was the marketing behind...

    I never had any illusion about what Star Pupil was, he pretty clearly said his friend gave him seeds that he found the mother he uses for breeding in. I've never seen any claims that it's the "best weed ever", just that it's unique compared to all the polyhybrids on the market. I've grown...

    Phlizon September Giveaway - PL4500 450W!

    Always emulsify neem or other oils by mixing your surfactant (either soap or other) directly with them and stirring together before adding water and/or other ingredients (like potassium bicarbonate). Otherwise you won't have a good suspension of the oil in liquid which leads to uneven...

    Online clones- CCC (Canadian Clone Consulting) vs GTA Clones

    Sounds like a horrible company, sadly there's lots like that whether it's clones or seeds, sorry it was such a bad experience. For contrast I ordered from Primo Clones on Aug 21st, they were delivered on Aug 23rd packaged in a solid pastic container with some extra goodies including a free...
