Another vote for wash: H2O2 and water, rinse with a hose. Spin dry. Like Van and Jorge and SweetSue do! Get all the dust off, kills the bugs, rinses off the (organic) pesticides...Quick question: Who here washes their buds post harvest
Thats one of my crosses. Growing like crazy JWB. Starting to really get some nice smells to her. I have a male as well....that has great structure. Going to clone him and use him for the future of the line!Hey man that Stankberry is a looker....
I do a three bucket wash....1st bucket is the H2O2/water (4:1 ratio of water to H2O2), 2nd bucket is lukewarm water and 3rd bucket is cold water, and then hang dry.Quick question: Who here washes their buds post harvest? I am asking because every cannabis crop I ever grew (since Jan 2017 ) I washed the buds in lemon/baking soda. Problem is, I don't really smoke so I'm a bad judge of the pros/cons on the finished product. But I give it away and ask for feedback. And, of course, I have the "connoisseur" friend who is continually telling me there is diminished "taste or smell". I tell him is it washed. He never heard of that. His "guy" (who he buys from) is a "pro" and has never washed and his buds taste and smell better. So, thoughts please.

I might give the baking soda and lemon juice a try.....what ratios did you use?
I have watched others on here grow autos and complain about them going right to flowering as soon as they were rootbound. They had planned to start them in solos and move them to bigger pots like any other plant. The times when I grew autos I grew them in 3 gallon bags the whole way through. Maybe being root bound does not trigger it, but I have seen more than one person make that claim and it seems sound to me. I understand it is an internal timing thing, but to me it makes sense that a plant that flowers no matter the photoperiod may have some other triggers such as root space.I don't know about what causes to triggering in autos. I know the Jack Herer Auto I am growing is a bit over 30 days old and not showing any pistils in its bigger pot. Now if I was growing outdoors.....autos I would probably do at least 15 gallons simply for the soil temperature. For photos, I would probably only grow in 25+ gallon pots. People really under estimate how hot the sun can make outdoor containers get. Bigger pots help to stabilize those temperatures in the root zones.
Maybe it got rootbound in a 3 gallon pot around 36 days. Just about the same time it was going to go into flower. Coincidence doesn't equal causation!I have watched others on here grow autos and complain about them going right to flowering as soon as they were rootbound.

This was not me observing it, it was other growers. They were using smaller pots and some larger pots and mentioned all of the ones in smaller pots starting to flower first. Yes it could be a coincidence but it could also be true. Why would something with internal triggers to flower so as to carry on its genes not switch to flowering once it runs out of root space? It would make sense (to me atleast) that once an auto senses it has no more room to stretch its feet that it switches to flowering so it can try to procreate and keep the species alive.Maybe it got rootbound in a 3 gallon pot around 36 days.

I don't understand is why a wild plant grown in Russia would have any concept of being root bound in its genetic code. Photos don't do this, why would autos just because they happen to flower on a time-table rather than by the number of hours of daylight in a day.This was not me observing it, it was other growers.

Im not sure why it would happen i am just explaining how it makes sense to me. It very well could be wrong. By all emans experiment and let us know if there is any truth to this or if it is just another growing myth. I know some local growers will grow sativas outdoors in smaller pots so as to get them to finish quicker. We have a short season outside (between april and october some years or june and october others depending on our "springs") and most sativas wont typically finsih on time. Though as I said some growers will stick them in smaller pots and say that it works to get them to finish on time. (Again this is not something I have tried, just another "pro" tip I have been given)I don't understand is why a wild plant grown in Russia would have any concept of being root bound in its genetic code.

Next time I have the space and inclination to grow two autos of the same type at the same time in plastic pots, I am definitely going to test this theory!
Dunno nothin' bout photos, but the only thing I could find on Ruderalis and timetables came from wikipedia, which says that it "enters the flowering stage based on the maturity of the plant." Do rootbound plants think they're mature? That could explain it. Next time I have space in the legal limits I'll run a test and give it a shot .Im not sure why it would happen i am just explaining how it makes sense to me. It very well could be wrong.

Oh that I can attest to....she is definitely a monster!! Hope she only stretches 50%, cause thats all the room I have!Oh yeah, stankberry in flower mode! Now the fun begins. It's going to be a monster

Well....Ms Stank has been urging me for 2-3 days to transplant her. "She is starting to look like the Nuke and Stank did, you should transplant it"
"No, I should be able to get 4 weeks from this, lets just see how it progresses"
Well we see who was correct LOL. She might not say a whole lot....but when Ms Stank says something, its usually right!
