    Which strains are best for creative work?

    Which strains offer the best effects in terms of creative work? So far I've found Strawberry Cough to be one of my favorites in terms of doing creative stuff like music. A friend gave me a Sour Diesel brownie, smoking it was cool, but in edible form it was amazing, eating just 1/5th of the...

    Best worm bedding plants/material you can find in the wild? (Southern California)

    I heard comfrey and stinging nettle are great bedding for worm bins, though I don't think any comfrey grows around here in southern California. I've seen stinging nettle, but in very small patches, and I went to the place where it used to grow in the wild and I didn't see any. Are there any...

    Compost Tea Bubblers: do they actually help? + Large bubbles vs small bubbles?

    There is some controversy online as to whether compost tea isn't the same as just adding compost or worm castings as a top dressing, and watering. Have you seen any large benefits to brewing your own compost tea, vs just applying compost directly? (Also, does bubble size matter when brewing...

    In ground planting: mixing native soil with no-till / super soil?

    I’ve been hearing that to fill the 60 gallon hole I made in my backyard, I shouldn’t fill it with [only] my regular super soil mix, but rather mix in the local soil, so that when the plant reaches the edge of the hole, the roots will keep growing into the native soil. I’m in Southern...

    Amendment ratios for 40/40/20 soil mix same as for 1/1/1 Coots mix?

    I'll be trying a modified version of the 1/1/1 Coots mix, and changing it to 40/40/20 (as online some have said they get better long term results this way, with the 20% being the compost portion, as it prevents soil compaction after a few years). Was just wondering if I need to adjust the soil...

    Butter without decarbing weed first?

    What happens if you make butter without decarbing the weed first? (I want to make butter than I would just eat raw, without putting it into brownies or anything). Confused cause some people say I have to decarb it first by putting it in oven for 30 minutes at 250F, then simmer it for 2-4 hrs...

    Zeus Arc GT vs Volcano?

    (Wasn't sure where to post this, hope this is the right subforum) Interested in getting a vape for the first time, I’ve heard great things about both. Thinking about the Arc GT but also heard the Volcano is great. I know a traditional Volcano isn’t portable at all, but besides that fact, does...

    I'll be making my first seeds (got a Panama Red male, besides that my Punta Roja, Acapulco Gold, Zacatecas x Michoacan, and other Panama plants are female). So going to have a ton of crosses hopefully, and pure Panama seeds. One thing I'm not sure about is if I'm just supposed to leave the male...

    Sourcing Seeds in Oaxaca?

    I'll be visiting Oaxaca de Juarez for a few days pretty soon - mostly to visit but was wondering how hard it would be to find some really unique seeds (ie. landraces, if possible). Any advice on where to look? I imagine anything bought on the street would just be regular stuff, but was...

    Best way to plant landrace seeds directly into (outdoor) no-till pots?

    I have to leave my city for a few months and my grow partner doesn't know much about growing (he provides the outdoor space, I do the gardening), so trying to think of the simplest method I can sprout some seeds and plant them in the 5 days I have left here (I'll be back late June though, for a...

    "Waterproofed" lights - worth it, or pain in the ass?

    I've heard some mention that LED grow lights with the IP65 waterproofing attract dust, some say it's useless, etc... Wondering, is it worth the peace of mind? Or does it just get in the way / cause more problems? I'm looking at this Kingbrite light, it's only an extra $5 for the waterproofed...

    Lighting: How much does the IP65 waterproofing affect efficiency / PPFD?

    Does anyone know how much light the waterproofing blocks, on LED lights? Is it a lot, or just like a 1-2% difference? I'm going to order 2 Kingbrite lights and wanted to get them with waterproofing. (I turned my guest bathroom into my grow room, just in case pipe bursts, etc).

    Anything I should take into consideration before ordering 2 x KingBrite 240W qb288 v3 lm301h red mix UV IR?

    Been researching lights for a good few weeks, for my application and budget decided on the KingBrite 240W qb288 v3 lm301h red mix UV IR. My only concern is that supposedly the Epistar LED's lose their efficiency quickly? Or is it not really something to worry about? (Just wondering about the...

    Bad idea to take new grow lights with me in checked baggage to Mexico?

    I'm in the US but moving back soon to my apartment in Mexico, gonna fly back via Tijuana. Grow lights themselves aren't illegal right? Was gonna take two 240W Kingbrite quantum boards, they're not too big. Just wondering if I'd have any problems with US or Mexico customs. Prolly not an...
