Oh I am so sorry to hear that you too are having problems getting to sleep. I am sure that if my sister was a little more open-minded about using weed and had the DIY attitude of all these fine individuals on this forum, she wouldn't drink as much. Fortunately all I need is a good stiff bowl to bring me up and down... That down is all I need to help me sleep at a reasonable hour. How long have you been having trouble sleeping? If you wanted to go an all herbal route, you could drink chamomile tea and a bowl of something heavy? Then you can also take (or grow and take) valerian root ( It smells like vomit but you will have a damn fine night of sleep afterward!). Celestial Seasonings makes a blend called Sleepy Time Extra which has the Chamomile and the Valerian root. And Roman Chamomile is really easy to grow! It may not help you much but it is worth a try and a lot more healthful than all those pills...

All good...i actually tried the teas..and all the things the dr's say to help urself sleep..im just wound too tight i guess.. but thanks for the suggestions..
what strains do u smoke before bed that helps ya knock out? thats always good to know when planning my next grow ;)

I thought you said you just bought the bag ..... DAM went through that quick!

As far as the molasses thing I cant tell you cause you dont use it for hydro only for soil. On a side note reading these forums you have people that swear by it and then you have AL B FUCT who will give scientific evidence that in theory sugars will do nothing for a plant so I guess its a 50/50 split.

As far as what that plant is dong that last week I am not exactly sure cause its not something that you can see necessarily at least with the strain I grow. BUT what it technicaly is doing is that the calyx are swelling up the stygmas are turning brown and the trichomes are changing there cemical structure.

In all honesty in my opinion you can never know when the "right" time to chop down your plant. You only have clues. Meaning - Unless you have been growing the same plant and cloning it over and over you dont know when the ideal time to harvest that plant is for the high that you are looking for. The genes of a plant determain the growing style and potential high. The Grow set-up determains the potential outcome for ideal situations for that plant and when you decide to harvest changes the "type" of high you are looking for. ALL these variables add up so unless someone has grown and cloned the same plant in the same setup under the same conditions and choped at different times to test potency then ya I just wrote a fkn novel gg. But you get the idea.

If you clone on your next grow ( recomend ) you can have this sort of test over time. Although from what I read you are sort of looking for 2 different highs - a happy head and a help you sleep. That is definatly either 2 different strains or harvesting at 2 different times. Considering the seeds you just grown I think you can get what you are looking for by harvesting 2 different times. Probably 1-8 weeks 1-10 weeks and you will be happy.

anyway I wrote way to much but what is BFF never seen that acronym before?

Bff?? Never heard that Oh my..ok = best friend forever....HAHAHAHA it was a joke!!
and that novel is very interesting, and makes sense. Of course 2 diff highs would be great, but i'll be honest im happy with any good high.
however...this grow since i have 2 plants im def experimenting on chopping at 2 different times..makes sense.
as far as my weed gone....my bf & i go thru about 1/4 to a 1/2 a week. hence why im taking a few days off..my high's are no longer what im looking for...so break time.
What kinda high do u like? how much do u smoke a week?

not much just an 1/8 maybe ever 2 weeks. When i was younger I was an amateur snowboarder and got hurt and fractured my ankle pretty bad. Basically dropped 30 feet onto my front foot onto flat ground .... anyway as I grow older it has moods ... lol I smoke for to relieve pain and uncomfortableness so I like a high that knocks me on my ass.

Well , I have this well-rounded midgrade that gives you about an hour of perfect bliss and another hour of near-perfect bliss, the last 2 hours are just great but they are also the 2 hours that you will be just relaxed and drowsy. I am not sure what strain it is, but I would be just as happy to keep trying to find a few seeds in it to make my own. But what I'm growing now is aurora indica from Nirvana Seeds. It is pretty robust and forgiving since this is my first grow. I am hoping that it can do the same thing that my current stash can do.... Be uplifting for 2hours and mellow for about 2 hours. I had always had problems getting my mind to shut the hell up, too! Though your mind will still kind of run through dreamy bits, it isn't difficult to sleep because it gives you that light drowsiness like a 1/2 of a sleeping pill. I wish I could give you a strain, though...
