    Soil Vs Hydro

    idk 'bout you guys, but i don't "live in" my soil. My plants do, and i like to put my face in them and just hang out, but... i'm only visiting. I haven't noticed being harmed by "extra" bacteria... and i'm sure my "disgusting" soil is likely far less disgusting than quite a lot of people i've...

    Lollipopping ( Any Scientific Evidence? )

    Nope, i'm just verbose like that (some people appreciate the attempt at precision, others consider it an unappealing character flaw). It would be wildly presumptuous (and quite premature) of me to assume i know enough about growing cannabis to write a book. I obviously am not an expert yet, but...

    Soil Vs Hydro

    Dude, you have probes and monitors and automation growing your plants for you. That's mad-science. I know what overclocking is, i'm doing it right now, and on water too. ^^ Soil isn't the only thing with "icky" stuff in it. Have you ever touched a public door handle with your bare flesh? You...

    Another Cree CXA3070 DIY Thread

    ...as long as you have enough amps and correct polarity? I managed to strike gold with a 1A 12V wall wart, leftover from who knows what, which happened to have like 8ft of good wire on it. Yes. ^^ If you end up deciding they're not quite enough, you could look into some of those smaller...

    Soil Vs Hydro

    Hydro uses more electricity and more water? I'd say if you're not going with legit organics, might as well go hydro. To me, hydro seems like a massive tedious hassle, and a delicate balance in need of perpetual maintenance, which can instantly kill plants if you mess up a little bit...

    Lollipopping ( Any Scientific Evidence? )

    So are you saying cannabis is not a sun-adapted species, and that it does not grow toward light? It most certainly IS a sun-adapted species (look it up), and DOES grow toward light; i have seen it; it is well-documented. I can move my lamp to different positions, and my plants will reposition...

    Lollipopping ( Any Scientific Evidence? )

    okay... what about training and topping (auxin manipulation)? If i keep pinching the top every time it heals, won't that cause "the rest of the plant" to receive more "energy?" Whereas, if we're growing an apically dominant strain, and just leave it to do its thing, it will naturally focus...

    Did I harvest too soon?

    What i meant was: it looks close enough to be good enough to not worry or be bummed about it. Yeah, it's imperfect, maybe not completely finished, but it looks like it will be good anyway.

    HOLY SHIT ! BREAK IN !!! HALF MY WEED IS STOLEN !!!!

    When i say "karma," i'm referring to the realistic consequences of accumulating misdeeds, and the simple logic that "if you go around doing bad things to people, someone will eventually retaliate" (no matter who you are, or how much of a badass you might think you are, there is always someone...

    Did I harvest too soon?

    it does look like it could have gone a little longer, but it also looks "close enough" to me. I don't think the amount of "too soon" will be a problem here.

    Lollipopping ( Any Scientific Evidence? )

    Since you already know where you've published all this information, you could just, you know, throw a link... not exactly repeating yourself, IMO. I still think that the leaves that get direct light are photosynthesizing more efficiently (and thus their leaves are "worth more"), which is a...

    HOLY SHIT ! BREAK IN !!! HALF MY WEED IS STOLEN !!!!

    Not really. "Bad karma" comes from people being constantly shitty to others; it eventually "catches up to them," in that they end up being shitty to a person who WILL NOT TOLERATE IT, at which point a significant retaliation is encountered, due to the aforementioned shitty person's...

    Recycled Organic Living Soil (ROLS) and No Till Thread

    Nope! Personal judgment and assessment criteria selection, is everyone's right, actually. But, just as it is my right to use my own judgment as i see fit, it is your right to disregard my judgment. It's not "the judgment" that is wrong, but that too many people don't understand how to...

    HOLY SHIT ! BREAK IN !!! HALF MY WEED IS STOLEN !!!!

    Exactly; some people will do anything to make themselves not look like the bad guys they actually are.

    When should I harvest where I live

    first reaction is inline with indoor-mindset and uninterrupted completely dark periods... But cannabis has been surviving in the wild under the light of the full moon, for millennia, so... idk?

    CREE DIY Question

    I had the same question on my journey. Supra knows. ^^ If cost is an issue, but color accuracy isn't, go with the 4-step (and technically, it's actually possible to get a beneficial variation only possible w/ the 4-step, but now i'm "reaching"... and this particular factor should not be heavily...

    Help, having trouble figuring this potential problem out

    spraying BHO on plants! Hah! Mind = blown. I'm going to have to try that at some point.

    Help, having trouble figuring this potential problem out

    I kinda wonder whether the bug stuff might add any particular special flavor... or maybe whether any residual bug-matter would discernibly affect hash made from such a plant. And if it crackles when you burn it, you get to make a bunch of jokes. So idk, as long as it doesn't ruin the plant...

    Help, having trouble figuring this potential problem out

    lol, the point of the light adjustment comment was to avoid decreasing or interrupting the dark period, in the event that his lamp is bright enough to harm his vision. We don't want to mess up the plants, but you can't grow new eyeballs... so a single instance of a 1-hour light reduction (to...

    Help, having trouble figuring this potential problem out

    IOW: "if you're not infested, your plants suck." Might be sound reasoning. ^^ But seriously, those look frosty as hell... but kinda... clumpy, i guess, on the leaves. Is that the "white dots" we're supposed to see? The black dots are clear enough i guess... Maybe do a thorough cleaning of the...
