My 8hr flowering experiment

Network/systems security, try and prevent corporations from getting hacked, clean up if they do get hit. Like those recent attacks over in Europe that made it into the media, totally preventable with a patch that should have been installed across all affected systems back in March #$%!
I know that my own personal computer hasn't been patched, how do I go about doing it?

Well some people do and that is where I got my bag seed. I only kept the ones from top drawer bud, so I do not see how male or female would have much difference in potency.
I'm not so sure about that.
Most bagseed is a result of unstable commercial feminized seeds and some people leaving plants in flower to long so they self seed in hopes of reproducing.
Potency isn't necessarily effected imo and males are in a class of their own.

Either automatic updates if you have that on or you can download them off Microsoft's site in the support/downloads section. Those particular vulnerabilities were worse on older versions of Windows. If your computer is connected to the internet (what isn't now) you have to maintain somewhat current with supported versions that get supported patches and keep up with them. Otherwise it's the wild west, or more recently the wild east ;) You're safer on a tablet these days.

My computer only gets internet access through my phone.

Where do I go to find the updates?

That is just how you connect to the Internet. Your phone creates a wireless hot spot and tethers the computer to the Internet through the phone. You can go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/ to get updates or use the Windows update wizard in your Control Panel. Feel free to message me if you need more help.

Understood. I was thinking more along the lines of oops, someone did not get that male out the grow soon enough and some of the flowers were pollinated accidentally. Really what I am trying to say is that bud with seeds in it can still work quite well. The Bolivian we used to smoke in the 70's was almost as good as the Maiu Wowie. That stuff had elephant seeds, about 3 times the average seed size, but it still worked great. I admit I still have a lot to learn about gender, crosses and various other things. At least I know I am in a good place to learn all this stuff.

As u can see in the pics of my current plants. If a male is left to open pollinate there's more than a few seeds on the bottoms. Every single bud is loaded with seed. I'd say out of an oz of this bud there should be hundreds of seeds not 5 or 6
Learning is one of my favourite things to do but as a stoner it's remembering that gets tough.

Me too. Being stoned does not seem to matter since that is the state my brain is most used to. My brain seems to be a sponge, sometimes I remember things I did not even realize I knew. Quite often the remembering comes too late to help, but it is still cool that I remember. Now if I were to take 2 muscle relaxants instead of one then I doubt I would remember what day it is. :oops:

I can understand why you are so excited with this crop. You are going to have seeds for life and some cool new strains to pheno hunt from. I really want to try this someday but I want to wait until I have a high CBD strain to include in the genetics.

Depends on your operating system, the list below lists the patches that included the SMB vulnerability (MS17-010) under the various versions affected. Windows 7 is the most common but pretty well every other version except Windows 10 were affected by it.

I really wish there were tons more research out there on cbds.
It's the Trojan horse of cannabis. Drs and legalization supporters love to bring it up but not that much is actually documented.
I've spent many a night reading article after article of nothing more then opinions and speculation. Between my broken down ass and my gf with two types of arthritis an uncle with ms we've tried a lot of different things over the years and while I'd agree that cbd can be helpful without an equal amount of thc it's almost unsmokable imo.
I'm convinced that the garlicy onion cat piss terp is cbd and it's not my cup of tea.
Would love to come across a heavy cbd heavy thc strain. Something like 15% of both would check all the boxes cept taste maybe.

Spent a few hours talking with a good friend from back in the day.
He used to be a commercial grower and went to prison a few times because of it.
Apparently he was diagnosed with cancer while inside and was put on oils and all sorts of things by his oncologist.
He was fascinated by my experiment and surprised by how much my grow methods had changed.
Anyway he brought up an excellent idea but I'm not sure how to even go about it.
He said he's been spending a lot of time resting in bed and reading more and more about crowd funding and group efforts.
He thinks I should start a go fund me or some other platform for light cycle and other environmental research.
What do u guys think? Is it possible to get some crowd funded money to build a test facility or buy one or is he way off?
I could spend the rest of my life running every cycle I could think of and perhaps time cycle manipulating genetics?

For sure I would need help writing up such a business idea and probably even more putting it into motion but I'm definitely intrigued with the idea.

Some good points on the CBD strains, when I ran my Harlequin I had 4 phenos, 3 were cast-piss to the point they smelled like an old cat littler box that hadn't been cleaned in weeks. Until we have some solid research on the combinations of cannabinoids that help specific ailments, my take is to mix them up (strains) as much as possible, sift is an easy way to do that for medibles.

I've tried bud from lps dispensaries home grows and random street meds all claiming high cbd. The ammonia terp I'll call it is noticeable in most of em. Can't be coincidence. My gf and old ladies seem to get more relief from cbd while men usually comment it's nice but missing a lil kick.
This is the data that someone should be compiling and doing the work of researching. Imo

The word Cannabis will get you kicked off the crowdfunding sites, unfortunately.
