    How and When Can You Tell If Your Females Have Been Accidentally Pollenated?

    i can't offer any definity as to if they're seeded or not, but they look like seeds and i think the seeds usually get really hard towards the end of flowering. 3-4 weeks might be a bit early then, so, try again in a couple weeks or so. i don't think there's anything special you need to do if...

    How and When Can You Tell If Your Females Have Been Accidentally Pollenated?

    yea i'd agree with what robert says. i'd check out the fattest, most-developed calyxes and see what happens. if there's nothing in it, it'll just get all juicy and your fingers will be sticky. the cluster of calyxes on your plants look pretty fat. but you are on the 5th week, so i wouldn't...

    Cardboard dry box ventilation?

    thanks for the replies guys. so it's the end of day 4 of drying, and i have to admit, the buds are much more dry than i wanted them to be. the first couple days were fine, but yesterday things got a lot drier, quicker than i expected. of course the smaller buds were the first to dry. i had to...

    Water Cure Vs. Air Cure

    holy shit, what did he say? hahaha. this makes me think of reading a thesaurus-happy 8th grader's last-minute midterm paper for biology. or canabology? water curing sounds like something worth giving a shot, but i wonder how it works with dry/drying bud. so far i've only read that it has to be...

    Cardboard dry box ventilation?

    hey man, thanks for the info. yea, i know it takes a while for people to respond sometimes, but as i'm sure you can imagine, time seems to move a lottt slower when you're waiting for something. time also seems to slow down when i smoke. hmm. i have enough stash to last me until after curing...

    Cardboard dry box ventilation?

    any thoughts? this is the end of the second day the buds have been drying, and they're about where i would want them to be. still moist but def a bit dryer. at this point it's probably safe for me to assume the ventilation is fine, but i just thought i'd pick some of your brains. ...which didn't...

    Drying question

    ditto. they will dry in the sun, but chances are the outside of the bud will become crispy and crumbley dry while the inside might be a little moist, and the smoke will probably be harsh and taste bad. the darkness and length of time drying/curing is a major factor in the outcome of the bud...

    Best way to view Trichomes?

    that 420 scope looks badass. i have a 40x jewelers loupe but i don't like it much, so i ordered from uxcell.com a 160x-200x microscope for about ten bucks. hopefully it'll come in this week. i got it at such a strength so i can view individual trichomes a little better, though the 40x suffices...

    Cardboard dry box ventilation?

    first, my question is, how much do i want the fan to pull? i tried to searching for someone who had a setup like i have, and maybe i was just using the wrong words, but i couldn't exactly find the info i was looking for. most of the setups were dedicated rooms with string ran across the sides...

    fan leaf rolling paper

    cbtwohundread, i know mashing leaves kind of blends everything together, sorta, if using water, but i wonder if the oil will have the same effect? like, if it won't dry properly so the crushed-up leaves never get a chance to set or bond together. do you have leaves right NOW that you're trying...

    Smallest pot size possible

    definitely. i have my regular-sized pots set up on a timed drip system so they don't get a big flood of water all at once. i think this is a one of the reasons why i've almost never had runoff coming out the bottom. i keep a measure on the amount of water given to each single plant and the...

    Smallest pot size possible

    damnit i accidentally clicked on a link while typing and my post went away. basically, i haven't harvested from my own party cups, and i'd guess three to eight grams might be typical? and i'm basing that off of almost nothing. lol

    fan leaf rolling paper

    yea i hate to waste any part of the plant. one time i held on to the stems for a week, trying to figure out something and they got moldy, but it was a stupid decision to keep them anyway. haha. this will actually be my last grow for a while. i'm going to try another kind of plant that smells a...

    fan leaf rolling paper

    i felt a little dumber than usual this morning when i thought back to when i used to buy "hemp" papers before. came in packs just like zig zags. they even had little green pictures of pot leaves printed on the papers and was scented like... not quite pot, but close enough to know what they were...

    y r my plants curling PICS

    hey, i couldn't really tell from the pics, but are any of the leaves yellowing between the viens? in the second pic it almost looks like a couple of the lower leaves are showing yellow or pale color, kind of like zinc or iron diff., and that happens sometimes with high pH. otherwise...

    fan leaf rolling paper

    cbtwohundread, i was looking for some ideas for what to do with my leaves, and i won't have enough this harvest to want to invest in bags to make hash. i thought it was interesting to use the leaves instead of or in addition to papers, but then there's the whole deal about curing the leaves and...

    Smallest pot size possible

    i've personally never seen any smaller.. not that i've looked very hard. i actually saw a pot plant in a video on youtube that was grown in a party cup that was about a foot tall, just before going into flowering. it looked a bit lanky though. EDIT: i just watched that part of the video again...

    my plant smells like....cat shit?

    good pot is the first thing to cross my mind when i smell a skunk too. hah. i've always liked really stinky weed, but not at the expense of what i had just ate. mp377t, you're sure it's the plant itself and not the soil? i've seen soil that had mildew or mold growing in/on it and it was really...

    my plant smells like....cat shit?

    haha i've had some that smelled more than questionable.. real funky, almost made me gag. the smell became a little sweeter after some time flowering, but out of context it still smells a little funky. kind of like if someone ran over a skunk on the freeway in the middle of summer. that doesn't...

    Smallest pot size possible

    lol it's almost fun to think of what a shot glass pot would do, but i don't think mygirls is serious. besides, it'd be tough making a hole in the bottom of the glass. but i have seen some pretty decent plants in 20 oz soda bottles. in fact, there's some on this forum. for giggles i have one...
