CBD Joy: A Community Garden Experience

I'm so glad you're going to get that harvested before the weather takes a turn. It's a beauty and so frosty too! A cupboard-full sounds just about right. :slide:

On the surface of the sun? Must be on the dark side!
 
I’m having my first toke of 20:1 CBD from Candida CD-1 this morning. :hookah:

It was harvested on 4/20. And is still hanging - about to go into paper bags - so I figured the vape would handle it ok, and it did!

The cool weather continued to bring out the colours into the finish. Here in all it’s (slightly underdeveloped) glory on the day of harvest. It’s very very frosty!

Definitely the stickiest plant of my summer! I will definitley grow this again. Probably once a year if that turns out enough to last.

CBD joyful wishes to all! The toke is really nice btw - relaxing, calming.

:Namaste:

Newty’s last one turned out some colour as well. I didn’t know. :D

It’s probably appropriate to share here that I believe this chemovar needs to be grown in a fairly controlled environment. At least this ‘sativa’ phenotype does. Extremes and swings were hard on it.

Also, it takes its time to initiate flower after the light change so that needs to be taken into account when growing it outdoors. This took at least 2 weeks longer to show pistil stigmas in the tips than my other 2 plants this year (and 4 plants last year as well). InTheShed also found it took longer than usual to start.

So if growing it outside, I would advise a hoop house or greenhouse and maybe consider being able to force flower it to get it started (unless you have a friendly autumn).

I am actually very much looking forward to to growing one out indoors, under my QB light. So much so, that I may do it straight away and bump Panama out of the lineup so as to get some CBD stocks into the cupboard.

Also just because I enjoyed growing it so much. It’s a very silky and beautiful chemovar :love:

Do u grow a lot outside??

I'd think outside would be a bit harder on most strains ,but I've never grown outside....sooooooo.... I have no clue..lol

Mine did do great indoors though that's for sure

I'm crazy about sunshine and outdoor breeding. I'm just hanging out for a good time so I started out with Ace seeds-Lebanese variety:yummy: It's CBD, and it's not one of these classic varieties that I'm tired of:cough:

Regarding the reputation of Ace seeds I think that with Lebanese a lot of rich cannabinoids gained with lots of cbn, cbc, cbg

Until recently I’d only grown outside. And yes - it’s definitely a rougher life for a plant. Candida CD-1 took it harder than I’ve seen. I won’t subject it to it again. The slow start to the flowering also makes it tricky. Indoors for the win on this one. It’s been great to see sheds come along - he was able to protect it overnight when it was cold too. That helps! The fierce southern Australian sun was too much for it on the brightest days. I posted some pics etc of the phenomenon in my journal. I will dig them up to post in here at some point.

:thanks:

Ace seeds are tops! I have a bubba hash lined up alongside another Candida for my tent grow this year. :thumb:

:Namaste:
 
I'll be growing a Candida this summer so I'll see how it likes the summer sun north of the equator!

In the meantime, here are mine on flip day 32 (outside for 9 hours at day, in the tent for 3 hours under a Mars SP-250, then 12 hours of dark):

Candida post thin, flip day 32
 
Hi everyone
I am new to this thread
Iam big fan of cbd strains and have grown quite a few
My favorite is cbd afghani from HOTTG. When i was looking for a good cbd strain I was searchiing for one thst was reminiscent of the afghani hash i used to smoke back in the 80 and 90s . This strain hit the nail on the head. It is well balanced at 10 10 thc cbd . It is super sticky and u can pull alot of oil out of it. If u can find the seed at a seedbank the description is bang on correct.
It is a great relaxer and helps with anxiety and stress and is a great sleep aid and helps me turn my brain off.
It also was bred by a canadian out on the vancouver island who also worked on cbd warlock another one of my favorites.
Peace all and love your plants

I’d like to try Candida while I’m visiting, if you have any in hand. :battingeyelashes:

I have to call @Hash Hound into this discussion. He’s a big fan of the hash taste and effect.
 
Wow...look at that....reminds me a lil of the Mexican brick weed we used to get back in the 70's....Very cool pic Hazeri, thanks for sharing.:thumb:

Cbd industrial hemp Santica. CBG-2.2% CBN 0.8% CBD 1.8% I'm going to cook in olive oil in a double pot, so I'll tell you what a nasty concentrate with a rich CBG is.

Six months is dry and very strong, with a strong smell. The straw is also soaked in olive oil :green_heart:

Hmmm.... not one you care to take by the spoonful, I’d think? Hmmm hey tell us the cannabinoids have no flavor, so I’m curious as to which terpenes lend the unsavory tastes?

Ejj Sue :green_heart:I do not understand what you are writing but I terpene extracted with olive oil and sometimes by separating a friend who has terpene machines separated.
 
I thought I would come back and update the thread on my two Candidas. They were grown from seed, outside and in, and given MegaCrop from start to finish. Vegged for 117 days, harvested at only 51/52 days post flip with mostly cloudy trichomes and some amber on the sugar leaves.

Here they were just before harvest:

Candida tall flip day 51 - harvest

20190512_094025 CD-1.jpg

20190512_094025 CD-1.jpg

Candida shorter harvest, flip day 52

And here are the final weights:
The tall Candida came in at 197 grams or 6.9 ounces.
The short Candida came in at 209 grams or 7.4 ounces.

I've made oil from some of it and I'm going to send that off for testing next week, but I can tell you that smoking it provides instant relief for anxiety. It lives up to its reputation.
 
Those plants look really nice. I just had to trash my Candida because it was not keeping up with any of the other plants I have. It's like it was sick from the very beginning . Feel free to look at my current grow . I'm hoping it's not all the the seeds I purchased just that one. I'll try that strain again next grow.
