Welcome New Members! Read this before posting!

Another newbie to the form…Started growing in the backyard of my South San Francisco home in 1978 in a lean to greenhouse I built next to my garage…although we never saw the sun because it’s always foggy in South City, it was around 80-90* everyday inside and we were able to produce some awesome flowers…we have since moved out more in the valley where we wish we could be in that fog every once in a while due to the abusive heat…but we also have a totally secluded pool in which swim suits are not required and we can lounge while our crops mature close by…

It doesn’t have to be 5 o’clock anywhere to enjoy 420…
 
"Old Fart" here (be 71 in July). Just started smoking pot again after a 35 year hiatus. I am a former Humbolt grower from late 70's to mid-80's (lived up on Elk Ridge off of Perry Meadow Road in Briceland). I gave up on the whole scene after being "CAMPed" on (as a Vietnam combat vet the whole helicopters overhead got to be a little too much).

For the past several years my nephew has been trying to get me to smoke with him. Being a little curious as to how pot had evolved since "back in the day" I told him that if he got hold of some top of the line Humbolt pot I would give it a try.

When he showed up with what he insisted was the best there is I said what the heck and had my first smoke in over 35 years. Well I did get the old familiar buzz but to me the bud just didn't look as pretty or as fresh as I remembered. Also it seemed to burn more like hash then the leafy pot I remembered. It might be because of how marijuana is now processed do to legalization. Having been away from the game for so long I don't really know.

If I am going to resume pot smoking I should a least take control of what I smoke. So I'm back to growing (on a lot smaller scale :). Since I already have an indoor grow setup for herbs and veggies the transition only required acquiring seeds. I was pleasantly surprised when I learned there are now "Feminized" seeds. Had to chuckle a bit when I saw they sold for $10 each recalling the time when I would germinate several thousand just to get the 100 or so female starts I required.

If there are any other Humbold "Old Timers" still out there I would love to hear from you. If you hung out in the Cellar bar and knew the owners (Jerry & Cheryl) chances are we either shot a game of pool together or lit one up out on the porch :)
 
New here.
I was already booted from THCFarmer for "spamming" today.
So I just want to post here and ask prior to posting.
Will I get banned from this place if I talk about an All natural OMRI listed seed treatment that growers of cannabis, hemp, and row crops would benefit from?
It makes mychorrizae look useless!
Beauveria Bassiana is the scientific name. And this specific strain is extremely potent and concentrated.
Fight off parasitic insects like mites. Elevated protection against pathogens like mold. And it increases yields!

It really depends
Sometimes we get new people they come right out the gate repping companies and refuse to do anything else user like that’s pretty spammy

You can like Netflix you don’t need to spam Netflix on every post comment and make 10 threads about it
It doesn’t seem natural

Does that make sense ?
 
Hello, I'm a first time grower with 7 outdoor female plants. They are all super vigorous and hearty. But I have no idea as to lineage and I saw some posts regarding the breeder (KRE8 Genetics ) on another thread.

I bought 2 varieties, Orange Buttercream and Orange Twist, from a local vape shop as my first such purchase in my life. As a new grower, I didn't think about looking up the genetics or anything else about them since (amila) ; to paraphrase Eddie Murphy from his Delirious routine;, "I was just amazed I was fuckin."

So anyway, does anyone know where info on heritage or genetics for KRE8 Genetics can be found.

These plants, at this time, seem like they are going to be monsters and good producers . I just took 2 clones from each (also my first time) and just want some background on them.

Peace and best regards to all you growers and tokers out there. And everyone else for that matter. 20190629_141013.jpg

Hello fellow gardeners I'm Savvygrower and I am setting up my very first grow here in Washington state under our medical laws. I've been setting up my grow tent over the last 2 months and have had lots of feedback from this forum. I plan on documenting my experience from start to finish and listing all the parts and pieces and ingredients i use. I've been a garden helper for many years but have never established my own setup. I would love to here any advice or feedback on my up coming progress. I will be uploading some progress videos to YouTube @Savvy grower and you can follow me on instagram @savvygrower.

Keep growing on my dudes. 20190825_174309.jpg
 
Hey everyone thanks for letting me join the group!! Seems like an awesome place to learn some things!! I've figured out how to make a thread, cant figure out how to like someone's yet I'm not the best at this technology stuff, but I'm spending more time reading these forums than watching tv!! Thanks for the add!!!
 
Hey everyone,

New member here from Canada. Just completed my first outdoor grow of Dutch Passions PowerPlant and Auto Seeds Goriila Glue #4. Both turned out great but I’m ready to dive into the indoor growing experience. Looking forward to expanding my knowledge of this amazing plant we all love.

Hello all,
Well I guess I am a newbie here as well as newbie grower again as I used to grow many plants at one time and was used to getting big yields from each plant grew outdoors. So I started growing again with four clones. They end up needing some nursing as they were not even hardened off let alone ready for planting. So it was a big set back as I was at least 3 or 4 weeks behind in planting. I always started my own and had them ready to go when it was time. It was almost almost embarrassing the yield I got this first grow. I will say I forgot a lot of little tricks I used to do but I will learn a lesson from this year and try clones from a top notch growers clones my next grow as the the ones I had seem to have top growing way to soon. One of my grower friend said that they were made dwarf through genetics. He also said I should have topped more. The reason I did not top more was I was late getting them in and set back really was not an option other topping them twice. As I was pushing it at that I thought. I was always told and also read you get better results with seeds dunno how true that is feel free to tell me so I know for sure.
Started using again after back injury a few years ago which has gotten much worse and several other conditions which I refuse to take pain medication as so many get hooked and truly I was never pain free until I went back to bud as I got my medical card. That was about a year before it was legalized here in Canada. I happen to be from Nova Scotia so it is sold in Nova Scotia Liquor Commission. They are fairly pricey and there top stuff is not as good as I get from a friend or my licensed producer which aw always good but could be great bud. I had some Bruce Banner that was the best I have ever had but hard to get now. Well I think I gave a long enough background.
Nice to be here.
 
What’s up y’all, just cruising through and figured I’d introduce myself. People call me Tex. Been growing a little over ten years. Live in Potland (Portland), like to chill and chat with like minded peeps✌
