It’s 192 proof or 96% by volumeI had to take a drive to Alberta and grab a case for "Personal Consumption"
Start drivin'!
The cold is the key. Anything cinstantly below -20 until it's in the still comes out like a greeny, goldy, cherry, or dark walnutty colored taffy that is beautiful.
Me either, what proof is it?
Who's playing tonight?Free show on green

Right on.... have fun and enjoy. Get those toes in the water!
And of course roll a big fat one.
Always
I've found that pest problems tend to be symptomatic of a less than healthy plant. That's not to say that pests can't attack a healthy plant but pests, like most things in nature, will attack the weakest opponent they can find. Plants all have particular defense mechanisms they've evolved over the eons. Weakened plants can't put up as good a defense as healthy plants.
True, but I’ve found that for outdoors even the healthiest of plants can and will get attacked albeit not as badly.
Also true but I've found that bugs that attack a healthy plant tend not to stay long on that plant and look for better opportunities.
Keep David Carradine and Radames Pera out of my garden please
Curious how you define pruning and defoliating.
I’ve only been playing in the garden 45 going on 46 years and growing 420 15 going on 16 years. Mostly observation on my part as well and the basic knowledge of photosynthesis and how it happens. Plants are remarkably resilient and will still do great things even when we beat the crap out of them up to a certain point. When I really got into testing all the different methods circa 2012 I did a lot of comparison grows with clones, and hands down my bud formation and density were always the best when I let most of the fan leaves stay until they died off on their own. The exception of course being some defoliation to allow airflow and light penetration. It’s not a difficult test to do, just grow a couple clones taken from same part of plant at same time using same soil, feeding, etc. go about your regular defoliation on one and minimal on the other while taking same number of clones from each plant along the way from similar areas. Harvest at same time and you’ll see what I’m talking about. As I said before, flowers/fruits do not produce their own energy - mainly sugar. You will never see a gardener defoliating their tomato plants, etc, you’d be hard pressed to find one that could keep a straight face if asked why they’re not defoliating their fruit/vegetable plants. Fan leaves produce the exudates that feed the roots and the nutrients help deliver that food back up the roots and stems to feed your flowers, fruits and veggies. Your putting a governor on your engine and cutting your horse power when you go extreme with the defoliation in a nutshell.
I've watched many comparison grows using extreme defoliation as a technique and can confirm that, done right, it can certainly increase dry yields. Why would this be if the Ferrari got a Toyota engine swapped into it, to use your analogy? Mostly because the processes that happen are much more complicated than most of us understand. The study I linked in the previous post is a good example of this. What seems like a common sense thing many times is counter to what we think is happening.
