I am glad you and the missus are getting along better. 
I am finding that as I get healthier and happier, my relationship with my wife is much better, that dear woman has put up with me through thick and thin. So I have been returning the favor and doing as much as my health tolerates to lighten her load. Our marriage has never been better.
brother. I am happy for you once again!

man, you can buy that lime at your local hardware or garden supply store. Don't pay shipping !! I'm a cheap bastard !!- Thread starter

Thanks for the advice Slow. I picked some hydrated lime up at the local hardware the other day and the plants responded very well to it..Raised the pH to where it is supposed to be.
That is some tremendous "underbud"! Still can't figure out why it didn't have the effect you would think it would have. Maybe because they were freebies but even that makes no sense since genetics are genetics. Making hash with Mazar will make your teeth buzz! Great luck on your current grow!

You know MC, my Mazar did not have an overabundance of
trichs compared to other buds. Now why it didn't, Lights maybe or cooler temps? Who knows? I did make some hash (very little) and it was fantastic. But then you a smoking pure trichs only!
Light intensity can effect potency but if it looked like it looks I just don't get it. What was the state of the trichs when you chopped the top?

thats what i was looking for whats this i hear about the mazar not being that fire we all want so got a couple ?s for ya how far amber did you go how long was recamended harvest when did you harvest how long did you cure did the wifey think it was any good and lastly was the trim any good oh and do you have any before and after pics of like one idenafyble nug on the plant then agin after dryed thanks agin and for you budI let my go to between 30-40% amber. Takes around 8 weeks to flower give or take a day, I always cure for 30 days and the wifey thought it was excellent after about a one week cure. We took samples weekly and it got better every week. Smother and more potent every time. I've done 2 seed grows and 4 clone grows with this strain. The trim is also excelent as my Mazar was very trichy. My buddy like to actually smoke the trim but he likes the "green" taste a little more thatn I do. He's like the Mikey of pot! When in doubt give it to him and see if he likes it. He's an old school smoker and my former dealer and he rates this at about 3/4 the price of the best stuff we've ever had. Say if the economy was better it would be $150/qtr and they'd be happy to get it. Now, it's not knock down stuff but if you like a trip this is good stuff! More of a get you to relax and enjoy the trip kind of weed. Anti anxiety but leaves your communication skill intact.

nice nice just dont completly under stand how to get that bud that realy makes your eyes water and and sweat your ass off and actually medicates you every one always decribes it as heady or couchlock or sleepy or inergetic or whatever but it seems you need to let plants go to like 75%amber whether sativa or indica to actually get that real high and the choping at any thing less to get a heady buzz is bull try smoking a two week old budthat will get you real fuckin heady its honestly like saying to chop early cuz you like your indica to be airy like a sativa the only reason to chop early is your old or a newb and cant handle the chron or your sick and need meds thats just my educated opinon but i love to learn so please let me know what yall think and sorry for the hyjack but your a good man and im sure u wont mindAfgooey,
I think you have it wrong. If you want the knock out/watery eye/sit you ass down bud you want to grow a full indica. Look at something like White Rhino or beter yet get on one of the seed sites and look at some strain guides. If you get the right strain you can get the effect you are after by chopping it at the proper time. Proper time is less than 50% amber trichs. Any more than that and you willl have not cut it at it's peak potency. Things degrade when they get past their prime. I'm old enough to understand that by personal experience! LOL!

Sorry guys, out grocery shopping with my wife.
I let mine get 50% amber and in fact it took 11 weeks to get that way and that was only on the six tops. Lower down it took another week and It was still growing white hairs at the end! but the trichs were no where near as many as I've seen on some of the grows here. Not nearly as many. Also my buds were not 'tight' as other folks buds.
Your asking for photos of wet buds and cured bud. sorry for the 'weak' resolution Her you go:
Mazar after being dried and then a two week cure
Just harvested tops at 11 weeks (wet) - 2 pics
Mazar at about 10 1/2 weeks (one top is missing here -couldn't wait yet not much different than the 11 or twelve week harvest as far as high goes

Bud density is in direct coorlaation to lumens provided. The buds you show are fluffier than mine are and that has to come from the lower light level. Maybe it takes longer in flower for soil. I know nothing about that but would be curious to see if other soil growers end up harvesting week after the strain guide says they should be ready.
How long did you veg them before flower? Your plant looked very healthy and it's got me baffled.

It was over a month, maybe 5 weeks in veg. Depending on which seed company you look at, it was supposed to be in the range of between 8 and 9 weeks flower. Of course aren't those times done with 1000w lights?

You know I was just over at Be IRIE's thread and he has some buds that will be harvested in a week he says.. They have ten times the amount of trichs that I had. If you look at anybodies pics, they will be much more 'triched' out than mine was. I don't know why that was, but I sure do not want that to happen again. This grow I added 160w (actual) in cfl's. But I am still worried that it is not enough. For that reason I don't plan on the plants wasting any energy trying to grow lower down. I will concentrate the lights to the canopy only. even if I have to cut off some of the undergrowth. I'm doing some LST now to flatten the canopy out. I think much energy was wasted on the very dense undergrowth that I had with the Mazar. Perhaps if I had done SOG with the Mazar, it would've been more potent.
