Do you tell a person when their plant is shitty?

The funny thing is that cannabinoids can be seen also under a phenotypical expression in relation to the light recipe used, some micro ratios and aren't fix. Some UVA wavelength will destroy certain terps but increase others, if a breeder grows under a different lamp and gives you an analysis it is highly unlikely you grow a similar product

Hey @Kassiopeija it was a joke, :lol:
all good

Your bragging about a ratio of 7%thc to 5%terpenes.
And you were only able to pull 11%-2% with Colin’s genetics? What happened? I just smoked some killer ass crescendo that was 29% and 6%. I can’t vouch for 10th planet.
but i figured all of ethos was relatively decent. I’m not bashing you. I’m just confused on why ethos numbers are so low? I know your a great gardener.
You had the Crescendo lab tested or you’re taking someone’s word for it? I’m guessing the latter.

and that’s how easy it would be for me to test even the smallest amount. If I wanted to. Which after this year and prices. I most likely will be for shits And gigs.

If someone grew a bad plant, was real proud of it, but it looked gross, would you tell them?

Would you point out the lack of THC, the overall bud size? Or would you allow them to wallow in ignorance and keep growing the shitty weed?
It depends. Is this ignorant , shitty weed grower an asshole ? If so , I say wallow. That's why bees don't waste time telling flies why honey is better than shit. I just relish the moment when a a-hole makes an a-hole out of himself !

Typo alert , should read " .....when an a-hole " , not " when a a-hole "...oops .

Certainly not bragging... and I don't know what happened on that grow.. from what I can remember (I'll have to look at my notes) but I crashed the temps at the end going from memory.. But.. I will tell you this. NO LAB is accurate. I've brought samples to 3 different labs, and got as much as 10 points difference in THC. This is why I hate the Labs.. it does give you a baseline, but none of them use the same equipment (HPLC) or methods. I also know that certain growers will slide a few bennies under the table if they know a guy at the lab as well to make thier numbers more marketable. It happens all the time. We just judge ours on our own, and even tho the numbers came back low on THC, it was some damn fine smoke. Could have been that one of the HPLC machines were out of calibration that day.... who knows.

Iv never heard anyone put it that way. That makes hella sense to me. This year will be my first year testing personal product. Since prices have plummeted from like 1-2k to just a hundred bucks a lb. And you get to pick more than just one or 2 things. the starting shit from canna quoted me at 365 dollars for 5 lbs and tests for potency test, terpene profile, residual solvents and moisture content.. I’m not a commercial producer in anyway. And I’m the main consumer. So I’m not worried about that. I got a quote through cannasafe labs and awaiting an email from acs labs. Are You familiar with either of those labs here in SoCal?

When all the shit in some shops is 25-35% THC, I'd be suspicious, :lol:

I personally been tryin to stay away from the taxed shops. I worked for big flower co for lil over 2 years. And I watched my co workers grid the shit outta bud on the screens for the kief. Because our boss let us take home what was in the trim bin. So idiots were smashing em. Then we went from trimming 2-4 weeks at a time to only bucking 2-3 DAYS. Huge cut in hours and pay. So I quit. Lol. Anyhow. My point is those flowers went and got tested BEFORE they hit our blades. I wanna re test some of this shit out the package. THC I know for fact. Are not accurate. Not after what iv seen
