    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    LOL BKB...she qweefs, huh? I have AK48 and Short Rider going now, and they tend to let out a little poot of smell when you fondle them in any way too! Actually, the AK top that I just put into flower today gives off almost a coffee bean like scent. She is a beast...I'm thinking maybe a long...

    Seed Predicament

    I would recommend the Nirvana AK48 and Blue Mystics. My first grow was the AK48 (using only CFLs), and I got over 4ozs dry from just two plants. Not bad from a newb and no hps lighting! I got regular seeds and grew out some boys to collect pollen...now I have plenty of AK seeds for future...

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Have you grown the Master Kush before Chief? I was wondering what kind of high it has...hoping to find a good couchlock/pain relief strain that I can count on. I tried letting some of my AK48 go longer to achieve a more body stone, but since it was just the last of the popcorn buds, I don't...

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Are the BM autos faster than what Joni has been? How long do the MKs go? Since I've only had the AK48 girls, I don't know what kind of flower time to expect from any others. I know the seedbanks give a range, but that isn't as good as talking to someone who has grown them out already. Do you...

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Hey Chief - the Northern Lights popped finally...got its little head out of the dirt and is trying to catch up to the Master Kush! So you think the AK48 top is gonna be a good yielder? She is probably the widest I've grown, although the other bushes were boys. It's nice to see something that...

    How quickly can a male plant pollinate a female?

    Glad to be of help Chronic... Those male pollen sacks will look like a cluster of tiny grapes at first, although they can start as a singular pod that looks very much like a female preflower. That is why you want to give it some time to show definitively male or female. If you see hairs...

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    So here are the tops to my girls...still in veg, but I'm switching to flower on Friday so they will be 4 weeks behind their moms. I'm hoping to get a perpetual harvest going every month or so this way. This is the cloned top of the AK48. I tried my hand at lst, rather than topping her (I've...

    How quickly can a male plant pollinate a female?

    It may be different for different strains, but when I grew out some males to collect pollen, it was in the neighborhood of 2 weeks before the pollen sacks were mature enough to pop on their own and drop their dust on the leaves. You should have a minimum of several days between confirming it as...

    Great news Chief! It seems we've found the solution to protecting our beans from the atrocities inflicted by the USPS machinery. I got a 10pack of those bubble mailers, so I should be good for some more trades if anyone else wants to join in. I'll grab a couple wallets from the dollar store...

    Chief - I've got a little Master Kush sprout!!! It's just working on standing up and spreading its seed leaves, but it's green and healthy looking. Still waiting for the Northern Lights to pop, but it shouldn't be far behind... -Mandi

    Chief Puff Puff's Tent Grow---Auto Blue Mystics

    Icannabis...is Short Rider a good smoke? I have one 3 weeks into flower now, along with my AK48 girl. My Blue Mystic is only a week old sprout, but I KNOW she's gonna be a girl - she HAS to be! LOL -Mandi

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Thanks Chief and BKB...no worries (Hakuna Matata-LOL-that's why I chose that name for my new crossbreed)! Yeah, Green...I really don't mind trying to help you out with your grow, but that said, I'm only on my second grow myself, so I may not be the best one to take your information from. I've...

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Green - I don't know much about PH fixes, but found this to help you out... As for the repotting, I hope she was unhappy enough in her clay to forgive the disturbance of being molested at this late stage. Maybe she will surprise us and start growing like mad in relief and thanks for the fresh...

    high yielding strain

    Yes, AK48 was a good yielder for me! My very first grow, using less than 400watts of CFLs and T5s, 2 plants @ 34inches tall and I harvested 4.3 ounces dry. Its an Ice/Jock Horror cross (with some Northern Lights, and a few others in the mix somewhere too)...

    Looks good Chief...but remind us when it gets closer to the voting start so we can help Joni out (cause you know we might be too stoned to remember on our own)!

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Green - only thing I can suggest is to try putting even more drain holes in the bottom. It likely has to do with the clay soil...that will hold moisture so much longer than soil with a good peat/perlite, etc mixed into it. If you want to risk root damage, you could try digging out some of the...

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    For the moment, I have AK48 and a few Short Riders...I will hopefully have more of the Short Riders and my own crossbreed 'Hakuna Matata' (AK48 and Blue Mystic) when my current grow is harvested in 5 or 6 weeks. I pollinated several buds of one cola on each plant, so I should have a nice supply...

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Chief, the Northern Lights and Master Kush seeds put out their little taproots, just as I expected. I planted them in the seed starter soil Friday evening, so they should be doing their thing and popping in a couple days or so. I sure hope they're girls... -Mandi

    First Grow: Are My Girls Looking, Okay?

    Hey Chief, at last look a couple hours ago, the NL looked like it was starting to peek a taproot out the crack. The MK seems to be close to the same. I'll bet I have enough showing to pop them into their seed starter soil by Friday night. I just did one of each for now, so I hope I picked...

    Im sure I could just read, but I need input. PLEASE!

    Hey Green...a link to a sick plant guide with pics. From what I see, it does look similar to the cal deficiency photos with those little brown specks throughout the leaf. Save the link here for later - it may come in handy again. Hope you get more input here...it's kind of a bad time for...
