Did you harvest yet? Or flushing currently? How is she looking those last pics were killer I am really happy you like Mammoth p I think it's made my garden amazing, it's so concentrate that a 250ml bottle lasts for 2 grows of 10 plants seed to harvestForgot the pics lol this organic perlite will help my plants so much this next grow!

No i havent harvested yet, tomorrow is their last feeding then harvest time is two and a half weeks away.. was thinking about just starting the flush but i only added a small amount of synthetics and i will load it up with organics to try to get as much flavor out of the buds as i can the last few weeks while they use up those nutrients. The two 30 ml sample bottles they gave me will last me my whole next grow and maybe more. Very happy with mammoth-p, its a great product and worth the money.
It seems weird to me that sort of environment has those types of molds and mildews.. never would have thought deserts have wpm lol the only white on my buds is from all the frost .

I had stopped foliar feeding a while ago, so I know it wasn't residue. I could have been wrong but better safe than sorry. Fortunately i did more damage to Jane than i did to the girls in flower. Jane is still in veg mode and she's bouncing back nicely. Good fresh growth, and you've seen my buds, they arent stunted I just felt i needed to go early with them.

Looking great in here toast! I've been lurking around for a bit and wanted to chime in about the bud wash. The Doc Bud kit uses some fishy foliar sprays and his style of wash started to wash off those, dust, and whatever else. It also helped hydrate the buds which he found helped them dry more evenly.
I haven't tried this yet, but that's what I read going through his threads, so thought I'd share.
I'm currently about 6 weeks out from my first harvest, although it's just a basic FF grow. I'm going to try the bud wash on a few just to see for myself.
Keep up the good work Amigo! That Hawaiian lady is beautiful!!

I never had residue on my buds from bud washing. I know to each their own but I was mine with no ill affects. I find some gnats, dust, and dog hair sometimes thats about it. I dont do it just for that but I also like how it blanche's the buds and with the sudden hot to cold it really does seem like my buds taste better and smell better but then again maybe im just high.

I would like to add that if I ever did wash my buds and it ruined them then that would be the last time I washed my buds lol

Awesome thanks for that info red and for following along, that makes sense, i never foliar fed my girls and i havent had nats since i got my tent. There are a few hairs in the buds but i think washing them probably wont take many off, im sure they are pretty stuck on there. Its my first grow so i think ill keep it simple and not try it out this time. Im too afraid to ruin my first grow.. thanks for that last bit cannoi it made up my mind. Im not wasting six months of my time cause i heard washing your buds can make them a little better. Screw that lol
How's it going toasted..
As a first time grower, I'm so happy to here you say the words" Ill keep it simple this time". Trying to do to much on your first run usually cause problems and having that mind set will help you in the future. I still keep it simple. My only concern when growing is keeping my plants happy and stress free. A healthy plant will do more for you than any nutrient available.

Hell yea twox thanks buddy.. i try to not make things too complicated for myself. With that being said i went a little crazy on all the nutes i bought. But there are so many out there and what they can do for your plants seemed so appealing and i definitely got sucked in. They tell you to use a lot out of each kind too, everyone uses different amounts so its also impossible to tell how much you should really use. Not sure if the ten i have all do what they claim its probably impossible to tell since i use so many lol i wish i would have known its better to buy more light otherwise all the nutes you give your plants arent doing much for you and you are wasting most of it. The better the lights the more nutes they use.

Ill remember they dont need all those nutes to be happy and healthy!

Couldn't agree more about the nutes, there's so many it can make your head spin!

And i wanted to ask, do you go by the recommended dosage for the mammoth p, or are you cutting it in half like most of us do with the nutes?

I wash my buds!
First in air. I believe dryer air pulls some of the moisture out and enhances the flavor. It seems to almost "cure" the buds kind of like......say ....... Tobacco.
As i bathe them in air i also like to bathe them in darkness. I believe the darkness gives my buds a better chance to retain the potency and darker flavor especially because i heard it on the internet.
Then i like to bathe them in love by buying special scissors and solvents and wipes because it takes soo long to grow my precious crop and i do not want to use anything but the best. I know I can taste and smell the difference for sure. I know ya'll can too!
I always bathe my buds with attention as i sneak photos of them in my buddies threads and different forums throughout the internet. I find as it makes the smoke even smoother and the high even better.
Lastly i bathe my buds in butane flame. I find butane flame sets off the flavor like nothing else can. Occasionally i will use wood sticks dipped in a red sulphur based material.
All that bathing makes my weed the best for sure!

Putting my buds in water? in my years on this planet i have come to a point where i weigh costs and benefits. What benefit could i possibly get by washing my bud then drying it vs leaving it alone and drying it? Say bathing gets rid of 50% of whatever may be on it. Say it doesn't work and it all molds. ? The cost benefit just isn't there. If what is on it is so bad you wont smoke it, start a bonfire call some friends over and toss back a few cold ones and make the biggest Volcano you can.

I havent been cutting my mammoth p....im not sure if I was suppose to but I figure all mammoth p does is unlock the p mainly and allow for better absorption. (Am I right)? Thats was my take on it anyways. I dont think mammoth will burn them but who knows....I guess now im gonna have call mareen and see

Yup....all I know 100% is that if flushed good the buds taste fine just being dried and cured so unless you had pm or use neem or foliar sprays theres no need to chance it.

Excellent post Gauge. Where's the sarcasm? That sounded pretty much straight dead on to me!

From what I've read there's no burn even at full dosage, i was just curious if he's trying to make it stretch or going all in, I'm torn since i only have a sample right now.
