how long should gumby/bubble take to dry sat in a heated prop? is there a time frame or a sign (smell, visual, texture etc) i thought it was dry so snuck a wee spot into my pipe and jsut didn't burn. i'm anxious, i've other treats to enjoy instead, but it's my first time trying for hash so am about as clued up as Marv if anyone get's that reference :P HARRY, I REACHED THE TOP!

im no expert m8 but ive made gumby n bubblebag hash bout 5-6 time i usally find its smokeable after 24hrs drying but that smokeable not dry, try leaving it to dry for a good 72hrs n its just so much nicer probably even nicer if ya let it dry longer but 72hrs is the longest ive left mine, go easy tho if ya never smoked it b4 cause its some strong shit stronger than ANY strain of weed.

Easy boy's,
Sambo, base, lol.
Reminds me of my 22nd birthday when i thought it would be fun to inject an 'E'. It's not for kid's I'll tell you took my fucking head clean off, pink fluffy bunnies it aint!
I don't do hardcore anymore my body can't take it,anyway back to bud.

I got roughly 6 1/2 ounce dried and cured (2 week cure) from the 5 plant's, not impressed with the yeild and not impressed with the smoke.
Firstly I think i could have got more if i had 4 plant's in the space and i know i gave them too much nitrogen, what do you guy's think?

The smoke is nothing special, infact i'm very let down on my expectations. 3 Rhino and 2 Widow, 1 Rhino was a runt leaves looked pure indica but didn't put any bud mass on untill the last 3 weeks, very little thc, no buzz as such but made your body feel tired and your legs heavy.
The other 4 plant's, 2 Widow and 2 Rhino all have a very similar buzz ( to notice the subtle differences between them you would have to smoke a 2g blunt each) which is very sativa like and pretty week in intensity. I've been smoking a 2g blunt (and that's only cos 3g wont fit in the blunt wrap) every day before work as i iron my shirt and i straighten up about halfway into the 10 hour shift (about midnight) then when i get home i have another with a bit of football.
I have a VAPIR vapourizer and it's pointless trying to vape any of it cos you couldn't get big enough hit's to get high (first time in a year!) so fat blunt's are the way to go.
So no I'm not impressed with your gear Arjan, infact when i spend £95 on organic nute's, buy top of the range soil, top them all perfectly, veg the green for 3 1/2 weeks, flower them for nearly 10 weeks, all under full spectrum lighting without any deficiences whatsoever. i pull just over 1 ounce per plant and the end product is as smooth as can be but just don't get me baked! I'm calling your bluff.
i have no idea how much i would have to smoke in order to fall asleep on the sofa, my day off this week i smoked 4 2g blunt's in 6 hours watching movies.
What can i say HighTimes cup my arse!

Put into perspective, if i don't grow i get my bud from an Asian dude in a black Evo X, he chucks 2g-2.5g for £25, ground to dust and vaped that deal will get me baked to a crisp for 3 days straight (usually, quality dependent).

So Greenhouse your lying twats and your gears shit, I think i'll give my money to the Dankmeister next time!

sorry to hear that Yman but it seems you researched the growing side very well but just not the strain seedbank side Greenhouse are nown for the dodgy phenos and it sound like you got em unfortunatly m8, theres been loads of rumers of them paying off people to win them awards and other skulldugary, im pretty shore there best breeder a guy by the name of shantiababa or something like that left the firm yrs ago and also took alot of his origanal strains.

try mr nice (shantiababa) or serious seeds, or i think another good breeder is a guy called reeferman. personally ive only used seriousseeds but planning on using mr nice very soon as many of his strains are the origanals.

and ive never read/heard a bad word about them breeders.

sorry for ya shit yield m8 that would really piss me off when ya done everyfin right in its just down to plant genetics.

cheers for that info sambo mate. kinda had a few brewskies last night and smoked too much so hopefully it'll be done by this evening. gonna make up some more today with different trim and buds i've got stored.

greenhouse does indeed seem to be hit and miss. first lot i ran was bollocks, so grabbed a few lemon skunk seeds i had lying around and stuck em in some paper towel, they germinated overnight, all of them, was shocked and was very anxious to see what they would be like, so naturally i killed them in an attempted rockwool planting, think i should have planted the seeds prior to germination haha. no worries i've a mother of sommat else that can tide me over till i chose something else.

and your on the money with that info about shantiababa sambo, he's the guy who bred the real white widow and such, aarjan pissed him right off in one way or another so shanti ran off with his genetics so aarjan decided that genetics be damned he liked the fame of the name too much so just called anything wite widow etc haha.
 
think the original white widow mr nice sells as 'black widow', im sure i read that on their site...

my mate popped round last night and says right what bud do u want? iv got pot of gold, skunk #1, nycd or jak herer!
so i got a bit of each and this is how i rate em!

#1 jak herer (stinky almost blueberry like)
#2 skunk #1 (similar to jak nice full bodied smoke)
#3 nycd (nice n smooth good taste)
#4 pot of gold (more floral flavour reminded me of orange blossom bk in the day)

over all very impressed

haha yea i give them a little spray after the lights go out sometimes....looked good in the video made the colous stand out :p
I was spraying them during the day but the light was making the leaves yellow and crisy so i stopped lol :)

yeah spraying when the lights are on will toast little spots on your girls. just after lights out or an hour or two before on. plants look fine rob!

cheers Don :) I spray them every few days when lights go out...dunno if it does anything but it gives me peace of mind haha ;p
I upload vids everyweek so il stick my new ones on here....only 5 weeks until they are finished....i cant wait, this is my most ambitious grow...7 plants...they look considerably better than my last cheese plant.
My last grow was a shamble lol, had no carbon filter, was growing in a cupboard, and had kitchen fitters in lol. I live in a flat....the entire block STUNK of my cheese plant haha SERIOUSLY lucky not to get caught!!!!
Since then i have cleaned up my act so to speak lol :)
This grow already has buds bigger than what i yielded on my last grow...think the pure 12hr under a 600w HPS helps, last grow i put it under cfl's for 6 hours and 6 hours HPS....really not worth doing
