Expert smokers, help please

Try to blend strains in ur joint/bowl. I have pretty high tolerance and when I want to go really high I blend strains. Finally u will have a total different high, much more intense and interesting. U can mix indicas and sativas together but also sat & sat or indi & indi together. Try it..
From my experience mixing two strains its enough, adding more wont make it any better.

Its nice to see that I'm not the only one whose done this.

I used to say to my bud "Hey, which strain do you want to smoke"?
He'd say "make a salad".

Anyway, if you have one heavy indica, and one pure sativa like strain, then you can combine them in any proportion you like to create any effect you like along the spectrum of the two.

Its a little like doing an F1 cross, only without all that messy breeding, growing, selection, etc.

It's a great idea I haven't considered until this thread. What about indica hash on top of a sativa salad?

I don't know how to send a message. Any knowledge you are willing to share is appreciated.

I'm glad to hear that, by blending strains you can have pretty interesting and potent smoke. Yes indicas and sativas work fine together, but try also two different sativas or indicas together, you will have a total different smoke (much better IMO for those with high tolerance).

Try it, seems interesting! From my experience mixing two strains is enough, making a salad indeed (more than two), I believe it will not making it any better. But ofcourse it's a matter of personal taste.

Id like also to add, that chasing the HolyGrainPerfect strain is utopic, does not exist such strain. The truth is that there are so many different super quality strains out there to discover and to be discovered.

I'm just curious why did you choose OG kush? Word of mouth? Reviews? It sounded good? It seems sketchy

Click to expand...

you think a strain is sketchy because of the name, but you dont think it is sketchy to take information from strangers on the internet?? If i were you, i would think twice about growing cannabis in the first place. doesnt seem that you are up to the task

my problem is i already grow sativa dom hybrids and i cannot stand growing pure sativa's. i have 1 clone of delta 9 lab's "Mekong Haze" 3 1/2 weeks into flower, 14 weeks left... fml

Brick weed seeds are not always bad! I have not grown brick weed myself but my friends have and some of it was really good!

Check this thread out https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/584136-mexican-brick-bagseed-growing-out.html He says something along the lines of brick weed seed giving a lot of vendors a run for their money!

That's my thread.

To be clear, "brick" weed is just commercially grown stuff pressed into bricks for smuggling. Its grown in all sorts of different places in different conditions (typically Mexico), and its not just one thing.

What I said was that this particular plant I grew out of a 12 year old brickweed seed was better than some of the commercial lines out there, in terms of scent/flavor, plant toughness, and even calyx/leaf ratio on the buds. I stand by that, and if I had to do it again I think I'd still pick this "shwagg" plant over some generic white widow, or other such strain from a third-tier breeder/vendor.

Smoke report coming soon, by the way, but I'm not expecting the same sort of potency (at the very least) as some of the popular super-strains. We'll see. . .

In terms of what you're going to find in a brick TODAY, again, the genetics here can be variable. . .so until you try it, its a bit of a crap shoot. Still, I think to this day the Mexican "brick" lines still carry lots of their genetics from the old school Michoacan lines, and those are reasonably good genetics. You definitely could do WORSE, and you're not going to beat the cost of the ceeds, if you can get them!

"here's a tip for getting less stone out of ANYTHING, vaporize! a few years back, i was getting some typical schwag from a dude that was stonier than skunk #1, but that was a lot more functional bagged from his volcano as well as better tasting like taking a dry hit directly off a bud. i really want to get a "purple days" (or knockoff) vaporizer as it's supposed to be one of the most efficient ones that will make your bud stretch a lot further. first i got to get some bud though."

This is so wrong.......I get soooooo much higher vaporizing, it isn't funny. Smoking destroys a portion (high heat) of THC when consumed. With vaping, no THC is destroyed enabling more THC is consumed for a higher high. It's a no brainer, really.[/INDENT]

This is a "quality" thing.

There are different cannabinoids, and they affect the quality of the high. If you're smoking pure THC you'll get much more of a cerebral-trippy high. If you get CBD mixed in, that gives more of the "stone"/body effect.

And heres the thing. When you smoke, burning destroys about 1/3 of the cannabinoids (depends on burn temperature and other conditions), but you get ALL of them AT ONCE. Vaporizing is actually a little bit less efficient in terms of extracting out the cannabinoids than burning, but the vapor is far less irritating, and you can take really big hits.

The biggest difference with a vaporizer, is just that which cannabinoids you get, and in what ratios, depend on the TEMPERATURE setting. At low vape temps you can pull out mostly THC, for a more cerebral effect. If you want the "stone" you will want to set the vaporizer to the highest possible temp.

In other words, what's in the vapor is actually qualitatively different than what's in the smoke, and this largely explains the difference in perceived effect.

you want good and stable?

try some of these:
paradise seeds white berry.
i grew 7 or 8 of them and only 1 or 2 looked even just a little bit different from the rest. they all grew to the same height and similar structure. easy to care for. my advice veg and bloom with both hps and mh. mine were sooooo frosty as a result.

heres a video to the grow i did of white berry a few yrs ago. it was awesome btw: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcBWqOwYqjc

it gave a good yield. a buzz that worked well for daytime or night time. its a cross of white widow and blueberry.


beyond that...my advice would say DINAFEM seeds. they do pick and mix and sell by the pack. if u go to attitude they arent listed under the pick and mix section even though they sell pick and mix (go figure right?).

ive grown literally 5-7 strains from them and have NEVER been let down. their descriptions are fairly accurate to what i got in my grow room and what showed up in grow logs around the net. 2 of the best strains ive tried from them so far are original amnesia and critical+. both fire. both great yielders (especially the critical+...its like big bud but on crack in terms of potency). critical+ also smells very fruity/fuel like. VERY nice.

original amnesia is similar to the critical+. great yield...nice smell...doesnt grow too tall like most sativa dom plants...only difference is it yields slightly less than the critical+ (i got 4oz per plant with critical+ and 3 1/4-3 1/2 oz per plant of original amnesia) but the amnesia is way more potent. potential 1-2 hitter quitter if grown right.

none of the 3 strains i had were hard to grow by my standards...no ph issues...no nute problems during any grow. etc.


those 3 are winners in my book.

lets recap:
paradise seeds -white berry
dinafem seeds - original amnesia and critical+

try those. ill be growing them again for sure.

if you want something more indica try sensi star from paradise. its pricey but like their white berry its a top notch strain imo.

hey, how's that amnesia buzz? i was just getting ready to ask about amnesia or more specifically, sannie's jackhammer if amnesia has an even better buzz than jack herer. i've never been too interested in strain that sounds like it makes you spaced out and stupid like an indica, but if it's more at the motivational and trippy end of the spectrum, 50% of that might be an improvement over jack herer. either way, i'm getting jackhammer or jack f7.

the amnesia was the most potent out of all 9 strains i grew with it. i grew the amnesia alongside sensi star, original skunk #1, great white shark, acapulco gold, kings kush , strawberry cough, critical+ and others i cant remember right now.


my original amnesia came from dinafem. its worth your grow space guaranteed. it didnt grow too tall for a sativa dom as well so id say its very suitable for indoors (especially when compared to the 95% sativa acapulco gold!)

the amnesia has is a rush. soaring sativa like high. its not a pure sativa but in the high its definitely almost all sativa.

believe it or not im burnt out on sativas. its all ive grown for the past year or so. i need some couchlock in my nighttime routine again.
