My own grow weed doesn't get me high

I don't think in 2 pages anyone has asked if that same weed is getting others high? Maybe i missed it?

So does it? Or is it just you?

Lots of possible answers here already, I just think having a second opinion on that stuff your smoking will help determine if its you or the plant.

True enough or if you are in a legal state, you can go to a dispensary and buy a couple prerolls. If they knock you down, you are probably just burnt out on your own flowers. It’s not because your stuff is weak. You have to vary the chemical profile a little bit, that’s all.
I wish I had such a chance...
How big is your grow space ?

I believe your light is recommended for 3 x 3 ?

Have you ever measured par ?

Might just not be reaching their full potential... Lots of variables, ie., medium/pot size/nutrients/ventilation, etc.

As to when to harvest, I like to see the majority of the pistils turn color And recede.

Then I will look at the trichomes on a number of buds, I aim for the majority to be cloudy/white. A few amber doesn't hurt !

Nothing wrong with the potency of auto flowers.

I "thought" I would see if what was left of the King Gelato auto in my bong was done, it was two hours later before I could start to cook supper ;)

Cheers
My growing area is 2x2x5. I am constantly checking the values of the light. Probably because of the early harvest as most say. I've never tried a photoperiod. This time I will give them a chance. Thanks for your reply.
If you go to a dispensary and the pre rolls knock you down please share the dispo( lol) and I would say that’s a pretty good sign of your flower being weak. I do agree with the varying your medicine part in most cases though.
Probably the closest dispensary will be in 3 countries and after 1000 km. :D. But I will try different strains in same time.
Damn no wonder people get cranky on these forums. The guy says he's been growing and smoking the same three autos for three years and your intelligent prognosis is: harvest too early? That's the most brain-dead conclusion I'd read on this board.

OP: 1. Stop growing autos. Auto is cannabis' retarded, drooling family member.
2. Have several strains on rotation, if you smoke everyday do not smoke the same strain longer than a week. I'd like to have 6 - 7 high quality strains that I can cycle through.
3. If those two fails, grow pure sativa's. No they don't take 6 months to flower unless you're N idiot and grow unworked landrace indoor. Ace seeds have well worked sativa's that only take 11-14 weeks to flower, a little longer yes, but most are enormous yielders and the high last 3 hours+. This is your key to trippy weed. Add a few of landrace, pure sativa's to your rotation.
Some autoflowers took really long. I don't think I've grown too many plants. Although I can't speak as precisely as you, I will give photoperiods a chance this time. I don't have much experience with them. I will follow your recommendations. Thank you so much.
Drysift will increase bowl potency.
I will look into it, thanks.

No one has ever smoked my weed but me. :( However, I definitely got answers to the questions in my head.

Curious on how a microwave “ dries “ when it superheats its core …
I certainly am not suggesting anyone do this, but: Tear up the wet bud and place between some tissue papers. Microwave no more than 10 seconds at a time (that shit will set on fire!) and take it out often to move the bud pieces around and let moisture escape. In a couple of minutes you will have dry, dark coloured and horrible tasting shit that will get you or some other desperate loser high.

If it survives nuking and still gets me high, that’s good enough for me. The slow-dried stuff should be even better tasting. Again I don’t do this to the whole crop, just a sample to get an idea of whether it is capable of delivering a buzz. I know it usually tastes like ass but I started smoking in the 1970s and half the dope on the market tasted like ass, so I kind of got used to it. People used to get desperate and smoke stems and then get even more desperate and smoke seeds. Microwaved homegrown is caviar compared to some of the crap I inhaled in high school.






This is a waste. You nuke the trichomes, dry it way too fast and force it to taste like shit.

You will never get a proper guage like this.

Good point. If you have any friends who are growing, you should be trading with them so that you don’t get burned out on your own head stash.

I started a fire in a microwave once. I think I was trying to dry out a bunch of trim to make a topical ointment. After that my old woman banned me from nuking cannabis and she does all the “cooking.” We also have a food dehydrator that takes longer to dry stuff but my wife says the microwave does the same thing faster.

I can’t believe anyone thinks they can get good smoking material from bad genetics just because they read trichomes correctly. If you are growing hemp, you will get great fiber but smoking it won’t affect you like a hit of GSC.

If you don’t have a laboratory and you want to do a 5-minute potency evaluation, options are limited.
