    Harvesting a hermie

    If I were you, I'd dry and cure the bud like normal. Making hash out of it is a last resort. Even if you can charge $10-15 a gram for the finished bud it will net you way more than selling 2 grams of $70 honey oil made from tens or hundreds of grams of bud. Also, if the bud still sucks or...

    Harvest Tricks!

    So coming to the end of my first grow (three down, two to go) I've learned a lot about what I was surprised to see was one of the more difficult and wonderful parts of growing: harvest! Here's some stuff I picked up, please share your own experiences too. I obviously have a lot more to learn...

    HELP! Are these bananas?!

    Hate to be the bearer of bad news but...definitely. Cover the whole plant in a plastic garbage bag, cut her/him off at the base and flip it over. BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO DISTURB THE NANNERS. They will spew pollen everywhere. Wash any instruments and your hands from the closet. pray no pollen...

    The beer-sized cola!!! bud porn pics

    Actually, MH has a higher PAR (light spectrum available to plants) rating than HPS, and CMH has a higher PAR than MH - I am smoking some of the most resinous shit I have ever seen. It's a little experiment. I did HPS for 90% of the grow, then used the CMH to stimulate resin and trich production...

    The beer-sized cola!!! bud porn pics

    yes, it seems to have significantly boosted trichomes, and even more significantly the resin content. Shit is unbelievably sticky. However, and there is a caveat - it seems like the buds have majorly fluffed up. The density seemed much tighter before I switched from HPS. My guess is that the...

    The beer-sized cola!!! bud porn pics

    Skunk #1. The amount of sugar leaves was just disgusting. First grow. I'm thinking this baby might be a prime candidate for her clones in a SoG next time. She stayed REAL short too! IM SO HAPPY!!! and high as fuck... holy shit even the freshies are amazing.

    first grow - 400W Barney's Farm LSD - comments welcome

    Had to cut down one lady cause I saw a couple of nanners. Chopped the skunk because it was ready, and I wanted to cut a bit early for that super heady high. I probably could have waited a few days on her, but the smoke is AMAZING, so I'm happy. I got just a sick amount of sugar leaves off her...

    Switched to CMH bulb last week of flower - NEW PICS - Barney's LSD and more

    This link explains it better than I ever could http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=72215 but basically, it is an improved metal halide bulb that goes in a 400w magnetic HPS ballast. It is not, however, a conversion bulb. It has an enhanced PAR (the plant equivalent to lumens - lumens only...

    Fuck! One hermie in week 8. Chop him / her?

    Nah, it's a multistrain grow. I decided it wasn't worth the risk. It really was only a few, though like I said I saw more tiny ones in development on each branch. So check it out... I was pretty excited to harvest for the first time anyway!!!! I got these babies drying now... 236.9 grams wet...

    How much of the plant trim can you use with bubble bags?

    I've seen conflicting things - some people just use the leaves with trichs, others use the whole plant, fan leaves & stems - is it worth it to use everything? THANKS!!! :joint:

    Fuck! One hermie in week 8. Chop him / her?

    I understand. I cleared out all the obvious bananas on top and flushed them (edit: as in: down the toilet. Not the plant.). They DEFINITELY did not pop open. I check them like, every hour the light is on I got em pretty early. And don't worry, I'd cry like a baby if this happened to all of them...

    Fuck! One hermie in week 8. Chop him / her?

    tx for making me feel better it was barney's farm LSD feminized seeds, they have all been champs so far, I think it hermed from a bad nute burn a week or two ago. It will be interesting to compare it harvested now vs. my two other LSDs I'll probably chop in 7-10 days I'll give a full smoke...

    Fuck! One hermie in week 8. Chop him / her?

    Wait, are you suggesting I couldn't still smoke the buds? they are just the tiniest slivers of green... I think the buds will be fine, apart from being harvested a little young. but there are plenty of nice cloudy trichs that would get me ripped

    Fuck! One hermie in week 8. Chop him / her?

    Just noticed three bananas coming out the top of a bud, when I checked the other colas on the same plant they ALL had started to herm, there were tiny bananas hidden underneath the densest parts. I checked all my other plants, they seemed fine thank god. This one is nearly finished but could...

    ?

    CAN you? of course! Is it worth the money spent? no comment. I will say anything worth doing is worth doing right.

    Removing fan leafs that are blocking buds from getting light.. should I cut them?

    Yeah, I'm doing an experiment where I switched to a Ceramic Metal Halide for my last week of flowering... seems like the trichs are going nuts! I would think it mimics more of the natural lighting in nature, when the light temperature goes from gold back towards blue. not to mention the added...
