Rad, Hash Hound raised the question about inhaling wax particles when using the hemp wick. It's something I'd been thinking about too, seeing all wax drippings on my bong bowl.
What are your thoughts on this? I know your family uses wicks, and has for some time. It raises no concerns with you? My gut feeling is its better than butane, but that's small consolation if what we're doing is polluting the lungs.
20"x20"x20" - sweet. How often do you get that kind of boxy demeanor going into flower?
I have never once seen wax drippings on a bowl, so the idea of non-combusted wax never occured to me. If I had wax drippings, I would try another brand of hempwick. I don't know what brand we are using, probably Raw (because she said it was organic bees wax), but I don't know - I'll try to remember to ask the wife.
I am burning at least one candle pretty much 24 by 7 in my house, as have most Catholic churches in the last 2000 years. Inhaling wax smoke doesn't seem to be a health problem. Inhaling cannabis smoke doesn't seem to be a health problem. Inhaling tobacco smoke is a health problem that seems to have given other smoke a bad name.
The fact that hempwick reduces heat, (as well as butane,) is, in my mnd, a major benefit of hempwick.
Dam well good luck with all the repairs n sry to hear it all kinda went out at once n messed things up but u will get back under control soon enuf I have faith in ya lol hey I was just wondering how u cleaned ur cloner bucket i member u and bb14 havn a conversation bout using hydrogenperoxide method and a bleach method just cudnt remember what journal it was in 2 find it lol maybe it was mine n jus cudnt find it lol anyway how do u clean urs im going to clean mine nw n was guna use bleach like a half cup in a sink full of water n wash it out that way what do u think?? Any better ideas wud be greatly appreciated thank you brotha man
BoBrown14 used bleach because he thought about it.
I used hydrogen peroxide because I saw it sitting under the sink downstairs and I didn't want to go upstairs to th laundry room to look for bleach and then read the label to figure out how much to use. I used H202 because I was lazy
The only reason I cleaned it was because I had it outside cloning outdoor plants and the racoons used it to wash their hands. Who knows where racoon paws have been?
Dam great harvest brotha looks tastey for sure do u ever make wax or edibles or anything cuz man tht shit u have on the line wud make some killer hash lol
I hardly ever get any trim worth saving. The only thing I have made this year was an infused olive oil (low strength) for rubbing on skin. 98% of the trichomes I grow go up in smoke or vapor.
I will be interested to see how the family like the ace mix. High hopes!
20 20 20. Reminded me of the peters pro plant food (NPK) I used stealth style in the 80s. Good timez. Good memories.
This is the second round for the Ace Mix seed I grew. From a growing perspective she is a favorite. 58 days in flower. Big strong branches most of the way. Sativa high. Easy to trim. The family rates this in the top tier, only a bit behind #1 choice Carnival. A touch in front of Delicatessen Lily because the Ace Mix has a giggly high.
So Keltic, Did you notice that my plants that flowered under CFL had less than 2" stretch when their buds were set and then I switched to HPS/COB? This was for 4 different strains. They were all small plants so they will have small yields compared to my big plants, but for a person with a low grow ceiling like you have, this is a very interesting thing.
20x20x20 was an interesting measurement for sure!
My goal when I started growng more sativas this year was 13x18x18.
My current goal is 18x18x18.
20x20x20 was the result of holding her in veg, trying to keep her compact, for 3 weeks after I thought she was ready to go into flower.
For some of the strains, Ace Mix was one, I'm going to try creating a low density center to avoid a mass of tiny branches with tiny buds in the lower middle of the canopy. In short, a square toroid (donut-shaped) canopy. Since a toroid (round or square in cross section) has significant properties in electromagnetism, I guess one could call this electromagnetic growing
