I think the person who told you about freezing Cannabis might have misunderstood what it is about. You can freeze the trim after you've harvested to allow for an easier gathering of trichomes (if you want to make kief or extracts). However it's not a very common method. It's more trouble than...

I'm glad other people see the conjecture and fallacies which are so abundant here. I couldn't agree more with you mate.

Ask and you shall receive. These are not from my current grow, one is a Dragon Haze (purple-ish) the other a regular Haze:

Read the first post of this thread please.

It seems like you can't grasp the meaning of the words I'm writing. It makes me wonder what kind of education you have when you can't understand the words and phrases I use, and it sort of makes this discussion a waste of time. Saying "professional opinion" is simply stating that I'm giving my...

The plant has yellow leaves because a deficiency is occuring. You have not raised the nutrient levels or kept an eye on the solution. Therefore your plant reacts by using up it's stored nutrient depots (roots & stems primarily but also fan leaves and new growth). It might be too late to do...

Some strains are harvested with the pistils not changing colour. It's down to the genetics. You should go off trichomes and the general look of the plant and calyxes in this case.

I am in no way saying I know everything or that this is my personal opinion. What I wrote is my professional opinion, it's what science tells us, not what famous authors, website owners and the like, tell us. I don't know why you would trust authors and website owners (with no formal scientific...

That paragraph is wrong on a lot of levels but most important on the assumption of "clearing up nutrients stored in the foliage". Nutrients are not stored in the calyx or any other plant tissue which we smoke. Nutrients are stored primarily in the roots and the stem(s). Some nutrients are stored...

Actually the real reason is not because the transported nutrients like nitrogen and potassium are converted into starches and sugars. There might be something about too much nitrogen in the end product but that would only occur in severe overfeeding. Which only is common in newbie grows...

Looking forward to your new season of growing Simon. It's always fun to see a proper grower use his skills to the fullest, have a good one :weed:

You had 1 post deleted.. Not 5. I know you were defending yourself but the language you used was not proper. It has nothing to do with free speech. I'm trying to keep it fair for both sides here. If you look I deleted all the comments which should have provoked you into a angry response. You...

I deleted posts from both sides, not just your arrogant posts Rumple. I suggest you calm down a bit. Maybe I missed one where someone calls someone else a dick, If you had just let me know you would see that post deleted as well. It's not like I had intented on leaving that comment here while...

I have done a side by side comparison. As have quite a few other growers on this site. I saw no difference in taste what so ever. Where I have seen a difference is during drying & curing. Having a proper drying period, with proper temperatures, steady humidity and a good airflow as well as...

I didn't see what happened in this thread, if this kind of abusive argumenting happens please feel free to contact the mods. We don't want this kind of behavior here. I've deleted a few posts which were very provocative and/or outright offensive. In regards to the pre-harvest flushing (I...

I've seen people proclaim is pushes out trichomes, makes the calyxes grow more etc. But there is no evidence for a dark period 'helping'. I use Hydrogen peroxide a lot. I use it in my spray mixes (if I have pests or need foliar feeding). I also use it in my reservoir(s). It's great at combating...

They look done, hard to say definitively without more info but the calyxes look swelled, pistils receded and has a nice hue to it.

First of all we need to be clear here. There is a difference between 'flushing' and 'pre-harvest flushing'. Flushing can be helpful when correcting a salt build up, correcting overfeeding etc. Pre-harvest flushing is a complete and utter myth with no evidence provided. People claim it provides...

That is an incorrect image, fact wise. I've posted an image in the first post of this thread which is the factual version of this image. Amber trichomes are not the cause of a couch-lock high. Read my first 2 posts in this thread for more information, I don't want to repeat myself in the same...

Anything from 4-6 weeks depending on your setup and a lot of variables. Do you have a loupe or a microscope? They could help you determine the state of the trichomes.
