Any type of CO2 supplementation is useless unless you have a sealed room. Otherwise you extraction fan is constantly venting it out.

I'm not impressed with the way this GG#4 grows so may drop it from the lineup but will sample the buds first and do have a small plant from a cutting for backup in case it's killer smoke.
Try eating something with fats in it an hour before taking an edible. This ties up your liver working on something so the THC can circulate and do it's thang. A cheese or peanut butter sammi would do the trick. I can tell when my nightly dose of RSO kicks in. My mouth gets super dry as do my eyes and I already have that dry eye syndrome so it sux.
I've made lots of BHO but now just QWISO and will be doing fresh bud extractions using naphtha. You could smoke the oil from these but it would taste nasty as it's made for eating so has all the cannabinoids and other plant goodies to make the best meds. I use stills to purify and reclaim my solvents and collect the oil.

GG#4 is a great smoke, super euphoric and heavy hitting. Any one I have shown or had smelled the smoke, they all say how good it is.I'm not impressed with the way this GG#4 grows so may drop it from the lineup but will sample the buds first and do have a small plant from a cutting for backup in case it's killer smoke.

I hope it is still suitable for me to grow. I don’t know if it is high yield, I thought it was medium to high but the smoke is one of a kind. Only other strain that did this was Snoop Dawg and a few others that are far less as euphoric to where I can’t remember them.
I know autos grow very quick, I hope my run goes well with virtually no expirience still. Found and bookmarked a thread that explained how to hermie a autoflower (let it age past the harvest time frame 2weeks to produce bannanas). If I succeed, I would love autos as much as photoperiod in terms of reproducivity.
A cutting? are you one of the growers that know how to clone autos? Heard its tough and not worth it.

Having a plant hermie is not a good thing. What did you plan to accomplish from such a trait?

Real GG4 is a clone only strain.

Yes. Extremely jealous of someone that can’t get a plant to harvest healthy. Nailed it.

Never used them but as has been mentioned adding CO2 is useless unless it can be contained. As long as you have lots of fresh air coming thru you don't need to add any. We're are now officially at 420ppm CO2 in our atmosphere. A number the earth hasn't seen in 4 and a half million years. More than enough for all our plants.
I do add CO2 during the stretch but set my exhaust fan to not kick in until it hits 90F and the RH to high so it doesn't turn on the exhaust. I use a DIY alcohol lamp burning 99% methyl hydrate. Gets it over 1500 in there in 20 min and if it's winter a 600W HPS won't get it hot enough to hit 90 so the CO2 is doing it's thing during a big growth spurt. Barely does it now set at 80 but the basement is still only 59F. Only burns 100 - 125ml/day so a $10 - 4L jug is good for one grow with about 3 weeks burning 12hrs/day.
I have a controller and solenoid for a tank but too damned expensive for the slight boost you might get.

No cloning autos for me. Can be done but is useless as it just keeps flowering too and would yield more if left on the plant. I spray the young autos with silver thiosulphate, STS, to make a girl grow balls then collect the pollen to use on other girls for fem seeds. Much more dependable than leaving a plant to hermie of old age. The autos I'm planting outside soon are F1s from fem seed I made. Indoors I grow photos but some autos for breeding.
The GG I got had a rough early life as all 7 flowering now did so I can't really judge it by it's small buds that are frosty as hell so if the smoke rocks my boat I'll get cuttings from the one vegging now and go ahead to make S1 fem seeds with them. Autos use 50% more expensive light for about 50% of the yield tho some growers get pretty good numbers.
I just got some Paonia Purple Paralyzer seeds I'd like to try out. Knock out drops in that one I hope. Bunch of nice strains in the latest drop. All of them are regular photo so must find the fire in that pile and make it reproducible!

I received it as a fresh cutting and rooted it once I got it home. My buddy in Grande Prairie has been selling seeds and making clones for commercial growers for years but sadly like so many he's no longer doing that as demand dried up. I've got some nice cuts and seeds off him over the years. Not all for free either.
Sugar Black Rose, Early Edition is high on the list and have 15 beans for that one. The bud sample was great. I took out 36g of RSO for his wife a couple weeks ago when we had to go to the city. His wife's breast cancer is back and she's been eating a gram a day for the last 2+ years. Refused chemo or surgery and smokes cigs like a chimney. Not looking good for her.

Just set one aside somewhere in a 1x1 tent booth or something, you take the bannanas and can rub it on another set plant, I would say with the same strain, to create seeds. There are many ways, just hoping to find a way that works.
Autos having a short life cycle is great but would have to buy and plant seeds for the run to initiate v.s. cloning. could try and have this at a friends house if youre worried about pollenating the whole garden by mistake.

I tried the advice you gave here on eating fatty foods before hand last night and the onset was real strong from crispy treat and brownie at 100mg. The onset was actually more interesting than the RSO I tried to start taking again periodically.I'm not impressed with the way this GG#4 grows so may drop it from the lineup but will sample the buds first and do have a small plant from a cutting for backup in case it's killer smoke.

Euphoric and was happy like a puppy for 30 mins straight, right after I ate it. Sadly that is all I can feel though, Maybe with home grown/home made soon, I can just continuously eat it until I am stupid high with only spending 10$ for the brownie batter and a half Oz that should of costed next to nothing for an expirienced grower.
Kicks in 1-2 hrs and when that came, I was already back to normal. That tip must have a lot of truth to it because I only feel onset and for some regular 100mg edibles, that was worth buying and using.
I want to make a bunch of brownies with high THC with home grown and just pig out with like 700mg lol. I have pushed the limits to get nothing everytime, or it just makes me tired and sleep early(not because I am blowed though).
I swore I tried eating prior many times but maybe something about that tactic being applied to the edible as well and not just a concentrated dose works better perhaps, which is what I may of lacked doing those times.
I did hear chocolates and baked goods are best. Maybe it takes that, with a bigger load of baked goods and chocolates as back in those days I was using gummies or only eating 50 to 100mg of the bigger volume products like brownies etc- since eating 5 of those packs often is a big waste of money.
Thanks for the tip! That was fun, was chuckling up a lot lol.

If you’re looking to produce seeds then I’d highly recommend buying regular seeds for a male. Then you can pollinate any female you want whether it’s the same strain or you can create your own cross with a female from a different strain.

I know creating strains can take 10 years but wow, did not even cross my mind lol. I thought briefly that the pollen would spread out of control and was looking for a quicker way to do it without pollenating all of them, or as mentioned, could do the breeding elsewhere which this sounds much easier, thanks for the tip.
Aside from what someone else said above, I read that too elsewhere that you can just feed them something special. Both sound like high success rate methods. This would boost my expirience if I did some breeding, too cool.
Sounds more satisfying than cloning since you’re making hundreds of em at a time that grow up easier, I am no stranger to germinating by now lol.
It does sound cool, have not looked far into making a one time cross, but sounds interesting and always dreamed of creating my own strain and could start getting into the breeding game already by building some hands on.

I've never tried store-bought edibles. Never bought any 'legal' pot either but after trying stuff friends have bought I don't think I'm missing anything.
Once you have lots of pot laying around you can make some decent edibles and get really baked.
You can remove males to a safe place to collect pollen or just cut off a branch or two then stick them in a glass of water in a closet somewhere far away from the rest of the plants. Under a couple cheap LED bulbs on 12/12 let the pollen drop on to tin foil and collect it later to use on any girls you want. For fem seeds then you need to use chemicals to force a girl to grow balls that will only have female genetics.
