ok conrad now I'm out there I'm bringing the two dwarfs in when the sun is gone and put them under an led for 5 more hrs that should help a little with fatter buds lol
Leave them until they're ready. You can check in a week or two again.Hey Con,
I pollinated a few weeks ago when we last talked about it and I am about to take her down. Should I cut or leave the pollinated stems? They are obviously growing seeds, they have larger plumper calyxes. I pulled one seed out to see and it was greenish white. Is there a way to tell if they are mature seeds?
leave it to cali to lead the way that was an interesting read a lot of growers will be changing the way they do things or they'll be illegal i no mine is clean and thats all i smoke now!
well it looks like i have 3 of each strain 12 total if everything goes well i should be able to end up with 4 females will see 1 of each is the goal the black jack is a fem that would make 5 for the grow room can't wait to see what i end up with one thing growing these girls is teaching me is patience you can't hurry them!
smoking some this black jack rite now this is one of my favorite morning smoke theres no down side as long as you don't do to much its smiley weed hope my next one is close this is my last one its the very top 3 grams!
Hey! No one cared before about what pesticides are in their weed. People like us work hard to produce a quality smoke and take pride in that fact. What are these big growers using that is so bad? All my life (until before I started growing a couple years ago) we never worried about pesticides or fertilizer used on the plant. I just hoped the bag weighed what they said it would.
Do you know about all the shit they put in cigarettes?
I am not advocating for pesticide use. I just hate that the gov all of a sudden wants to keep us "safe and healthy" when they themselves have poisoned cannabis and other drugs to put pressure on the black market and hurt unsuspecting people. Has cannabis become more dangerous to buy and smoke? It seems like it has because growers are using more pesticides to ensure a successful crop. It's just what happened in big agriculture crops like corn. You get big, bland buds because they are the ones that do the best without pesticides...Or you get someone like us that cares for their favorite strain and can do a plant good enough to grow healthy awesome buds. Commercialism blows and it bums me out to see our society to be in such a bad place.
Why am I rambling?IDK

Both are excellent. CG '72 is an amazing old school smoke, potency is really behind THC monsters of today, but it's not exactly low. I love that I get this feeling when I know I'm good. You kind of feel like your jaw is widening and you start giggling and suddrnly you're blissed outso how was the sensi trim?
It can really turn your day into magic, but it also has a functional/relaxing edge to it enough for a sunny afternoon chill out. And no wearing off, which I love. Bad news is I'm already getting low, so I'm gonna have to switch to Mexican or Punto Rojo reserve when it's finished

They really have two choices: go organic or keep exporting their produce to the East Coast. I imagine a lot of them will choose the latter
Patience is crucial in growing weed. Don't rush them
Good wake and bake weed is great. I've been using CG '72 as my daily smoke recently and I really enjoy it!
I actually think that your federal government doesn't give a shit like always, but CDFA wants to clean up the industry a little and I don't blame them. I know that many NorCal growers were against AUMA mostly cause costs to test their crop would become prohibitive and chain of distribution would come in place, but on the other hand customers want to know what they're buying, right? In Italy they'd regulate shit out of these operations if they were to legalise them, which they won't for the next few years. Growers wouldn't be able to budge, they'd be buried in controls and paperwork and scrutiny, which obviously would raise the costs of operating significantly, but even with all these bureaucratic barriers a lot of people would choose to deal with them. I'm all for bringing the government and bureaucracy down, but I also think that health of individuals has to be guaranteed in that way or another.
Hey there Conrad... congrats on your harvests... I'm digging those Sativa you're growing.. Late December... that's awesome. Some of them can do it, with the right genetics. Loving your garden and your input here, mighty fine!
Lazyfish - wasn't it Mr Nixon that sprayed the Mexican cannabis with Paraquat and then went on record to say "if they are stupid enough to smoke it, they deserve what they get" ??
Pretty messed up so gotta take what the government is handing out with grain of salt and try and figure out the "angle" they are on and I'm betting it's the money angle and BigAg getting in on cannabis same as tobacco.. which btw is one of the most heavily chemically treated cash crops.
Tobacco is up there above GMO corn in that regard. All ya gotta do is ask the folks that do the harvesting!
Also, there are folks growing tobacco same as many of us, as a "hobby grow" and are growing organically. They keep heads down and stay out of trouble, bet the prices for that produce are similar to high end cannabis. Just have to find the market.
Best thing to do is grow properly, don't spray flowers with chemical pesticides. There's lots of organic alternatives. We've been growing plants for a SHIT TON longer than chemical companies have been in existence..
I would suggest that the cannabis industry try and follow how the wine/grape industry does it. It will be hella better than BigAg + federal government doing it for sure.
Here's a good question: How long has the black market been in existence?
As long as government tells you what you can put in your body, there's going to be another option, maybe several other options.
Gotta share the love and pass it on... side to side. Love is the only way.
Well I'm telling you these two varieties this year may really put a new meaning to "you have to wait for a good sativa" grow its a good thing the harvest is upon you if your getting low,i have a question for you my son is growing a raspberry cough and the leaves have something going on if you could have a look and see what you think i would appreciate it thanks heres a couple pics!
