Hmmm haven't worked in the industry, yet.... people I know that do have told me its not what you know but who you know. Most bud tenders are kinda a joke, imho. But they probably went to seminar to get their job so what do I knowIn March and May, my state is going to have a seminar on Marijuana and the laws, what you need to know to work in a dispensary, growing tips, etc. They are $250 each. I was wondering if anyone has attended seminars like this and if it is worth the $250. My son and his fiance want to get jobs in the cannabis industry and they are trying to find ways to make themselves stand out. I think this would be something that might do that, but don't want to waste money on it if it really isn't. Thoughts?

Anything fruity skunky and purpleAlso, trying to decide what to grow next. I think I want some white widow but I also want to try some fruity indica and maybe some Malawi. What are your favorites?

I like gods gift a lot!
I do also like diesel and fuel like strains a lot! Really anything that has a lot of flavor and aroma I'm all about!
Ok just caught up! So much I wanted to comment on in the early days but almost all of it is water under the bridge now (over the dam?). The plants look great so any comments are just an attempt to help you with the early stages of your next grow. Please pardon the wall of text. I have lots to say!
Prefaced by the disclaimer that I am no expert, have only two (ok 1 7/8) grows under my belt, but all autos and all 420. And much reading, research, and discussions with growers on this site. Feel free to ignore any and all of this . Now to my stream of consciousness:
First one is that you got a PPM meter and I can only recall seeing you list your PPM once or twice. In case you're not doing it, PPM in should be measured with every watering so you can hit the numbers recommended either by your nute manufacturer or another schedule that's been recommended to you. It will make sure that the plants get what they need in each stage of the grow. PPM of runoff will tell you whether your plants are using what you give them or there is build-up in the soil. Which gets me to...
Watering to runoff is the way to make sure that all of your roots get water. Watering slowly in a ring toward the outside of the pot when they are young will encourage root growth to spread and fill the coco with a healthy root ball. I'm not a coco grower but I have never been able to get a scientific explanation as to why some people give their plants just 1 liter or something. How do they know which roots are getting fed?
LST should be started really early and there's no reason to untie them. You want to tie one branch and then the next one and the next. When you start to lay them flat early you can make them grow in a circle around the pot and get a nice even canopy, all the same distance from the light. The idea you had with the pipe cleaner at the base is a good one, but that needs to be lifted about an inch off the soil to make sure that there is no strain on the roots. I use a rock to keep that tie elevated and some people just use a rock and bend it over that with no tie. Good LST usually prevents the need for ponytailing. Which gets me to...
I've never done it, but as I recall, ponytailing is usually used on the top most growth and only for 6-8 hours at a time. It's a trade off between getting light to the undergrowth and preventing light from getting to the new growth.
Leaf tucking is better than defoliation. Leaves are the engine of the plant, so only take off the ones that you can't tuck or that are restricting airflow which promotes mold growth. Unless you are doing a technique like lollipopping which has its own justifications.
RH in veg should be much higher and I wonder if a regular vaporizer ($11 at target) used in moderation would be effective without having to buy an expensive humidifier. Vaporizers also produce sterile water vapor so there's nothing growing in the mist. Maybe an hour on and a few hours off...just making this up.
Anyway, I'm here (wish you never posted in my journal? ) and I'll see what I can help with for the flowering part of the grow. I hope you got some sleep tonight. I'll be up very late helping my procrastinating 15 year old on a project due (when else?) tomorrow!
Speak for yourself... LOL! .Ok, Ok - 2 pics of the whole room - cuz really we are here for the pics and not the words right?
