Thanks. Nice clear description. I am seeing what might be single-blade leaves starting up now. I'll continue letting nature take its course.

In an excess of enthusiasm, I planted two clones (Frosting and Gelato) outside in Northern California in fabric 10-gallon pots on 4/20. I knew they would probably flower prematurely, but I did it anyway. And they have indeed flowered. So now it's mid-June, and I'd expect them to be...

I've never had any luck with Dinafem (poor germination, seedling die-off, and underwhelming yield & quality). Fast Buds have been most successful for me here in Northern California, growing outdoor in pots.

So far it's still pretty cool where I am and I'm watering every 5-6 days. Of course, the plants are very small. I hope I don't end up having to water them excessively. The 5-gallon plastic pots I used last year didn't need to be watered more than every 3 days even on the hottest days around...

They're going to exceed the capacity of a 10-gallon pot? Dang! That's why I upgraded from the 5-gallon ones I used last season. However, while I'm interested in yield from a personal pride point of view, I don't need pounds and pounds from this grow as my personal consumption is modest. What...

LAST SEASON I GREW ONLY AUTOFLOWERS FROM SEED. This time I'm trying nonautoflower clones and I'm not sure what to expect in terms of size. I'm growing outdoors in Northern California in 10-gallon fabric pots in slightly amended grow mix. One of my clones (In the pot for about 20 days now) is...

Gorilla takes Bitcoin and ships internationally. They have some American strains, by American breeders, but those breeders don't sell direct. I still haven't found a US-based seed bank. The check-out process should provided you with a very long alphanumeric string, which is the payment ID to be...

Rim-shot!

I'm growing clones in dirt in 10-gallon fabric pots outdoors in northern California — Cookie Glue, Chiesel, Frosting, and Gelato. My first time with clones, and I didn't realize that they grow with alternating nodes instead of paired ones. Each clone has 6-8 growing nodes off the main stem, but...

But think of the tailoring!

Well, I don't have a black thumb, but I'm no kind of a farmer -- hence a "nonagronomist."

I've tried harvesting from the top down, and it worked out pretty well. The left-behind budsites developed quite nicely.

Smoke while curing sounds like a good strategy.

I wash mine. Not only because of any leftover neem oil or the like, but also because of insect droppings, dead insect carcasses, bird droppings, kicked up dirt, spiderwebs . . . I have tried lemon juice and baking soda in a three-bowl rinse, but that seems like overkill to me now. I just...

So, I've got what I think is a sativa-dominant hybrid in a 5-gallon pot in Northern California, and I'm rounding the corner toward harvest (est.14–21 days). Colas are well developed. My question is, what about the tiny little growths below the main cola, with each node boasting a tiny flower...

Now moved to long-term cure. Ended up at a respectable 62 grams, or almost 2.2 oz. Tasty and zippy even now, but I'm hoping for flavor enhancement as it cures.

I have a harvested Ultra Lemon Haze auto that has a few subsidiary buds on it and a few leaves. Maybe if I just let it go, it'll produce pollen?

This is my first season, and I've learned a lot. First off, not all strains are created equal! Pretty obvious, no? But my experience is mostly from the bad old days when you had to know a guy who knew a guy and what you got was what you got. Most of it was never identified as to strain. "Tasty...

Hmm. I've ordered from Gorilla three times, and it always takes about 9 calendar days from UK to Northern CA. Customs has never looked. I never got a T-shirt, though, even though I just finished a Fastbuds Pineapple Express auto, which turned out quite nicely.

Starting from a mere sprog (I germinate in the pot where the plant will live its entire life), my Ultra Lemon Haze Auto, grown in 'supersoil' of my own devising in northern California, didn't look like much at first. After about 40 days, it look like a bit more, but still just kind of a weed...
