Shredder, you probably already know this, but a lot of people make isopropyl alcohol hash. Shred the bud into tiny pieces, mix it up in alcohol which will dissolve the THC. Then filter the alcohol through a coffee filter or something and let the liquid slowly evaporate next to a radiator or a...

Hmm, interesting. Does the butane method work because of the cold? I know that that's how bubble hash and various ice methods work - freeezing the trichs and knocking them off. But I always assumed the butane method worked more along the lines of the isopropyl alcohol method - dissolve the THC...

Hehe, everything's easy to grow in Florida! Here in upstate NY anything outdoors better be damn hardy!

hmm, that roundup thing is a good idea! How about some kind of acid that'd start disintegrating the plant and keep going even after it's yanked? If it's just one or two plants you could always keep a metal garbage can and some gasoline nearby...

Nitrogen?? I would be absolutely astonished if that worked (though very pleased too). Do you mean nitrogen gas? Liquid nitrogen? I don't think either one would dissolve the THC.

So with the holiday season coming, I recently found my self in possession of a poinsettia plant. Given my recent successes with other green growing things (:blsmoke:) I decided "hey this could be fun to try and grow rather than just letting it wilt and throwing it out after Christmas!" Well...

Thanks! Couldn't have happened if it weren't for all the amazing stuff here on RIU! When I discovered this site it basically became my primary means of procrastination.

Hahaha! Well, Dr. Evil's never steered me wrong before! Thanks for all the responses everyone! I'd be really happy if it did yield an Oz. Even a half oz. would be good. Now I can't wait to put the lessons I learned into practice with my next grow...

Hello all! I'm nearing the end of my first grow and I'm getting very excited (and impatient)! I would love to hear what people think my possible yield will be! Here's the background info: Grown from good bagseed (no need to waste good seed on my first grow) Used 26 Watt CFL's, starting with...

alright thanks for the advice. I have been flowering for 4 weeks +1day

my two cents: Green plants do not absorb green light, they reflect it (hence why they look green). So yes, I'm confident that if you have a light that emits over a very small bandwidth in the green regime, it should be fine to use during the dark period. You'll have to be careful that your...

Well I screwed up a bit. I thought I was being sooo smart getting a nice fancy high quality timer. It can hold a bazillion events in its memory and even be set to change its times based on the changing night sky or the rise/fall of the moon. Unfortunately it was a bit smarter than me I'm...

That's great! I recently ordered from them, and I too was impressed with their service. They shipped it right away and gave out a tracking number so I could watch it's progress. It came very quickly (and on the day they said it would).

Okay, admittedly I don't have any experience actually trying mirrors, but what people are saying just doesn't make physical sense to me. Aluminum foil is bad because the crinkles create hot spots. This makes sense to me. The small creases that you can't avoid will create many small focal...

good to know, thanks everyone

One of my friends recently got pulled over by a cop. She was driving safely and obeying all the traffic laws, her car was in good shape (no lights out or anything), but the cop claimed she was driving suspiciously. And in fact I'm sure it did look suspicious. She was repeatedly driving around...

Probably a matter of opinion, but I would raise the other girls up and/or LST the overachiever

ah, interesting. Yes they seem mostly to be flying around the soil and down beneath the foliage. I'm not using MG soil, but I am using some cheapo stuff. Good info. I see the grow faq also says a layer of sand on top may help. Maybe I'll give that a shot. Thanks for the help! +rep

!! Everything's been going fine with my first grow so far, except now there are tiny black gnats in my indoor grow cabinet! They look just like fruit flies. I checked the grow faq pests section, but none of the listed pests seem to be what I'm describing. So far I have seen no apparent...

I'd like some advice on what dimensions would be best for a grow cabinet. Ok, here's what I'm working with, I've got 2x 150 watt hps lamps, a 4000 btu window air conditioner which I'm going to build into the cab (summer temps here get to be 95+ F, so no amount of airflow will solve my heat...
