Everything I've ever read or been told indicates that the majority of the cannabinoids in the plant are found in the trichomes, so wouldn't more trichomes and more potency go hand in hand, in general? If this is incorrect please enlighten me with the real facts.

The majority is found in the trichomes, but, the density of the trichome field has nothing to do with the cannabanoid profile. You've been brainwashed by the seed banks and forums into thinking that more of the "sugar" automatically equates to potency. It doesn't. That bullshit is noob fodder. Could be low grade CBD with a smidgeon of THC thrown in for all you know. I've grown/smoked sativas in which you couldn't see the resin glands, but the smoke laid you on your ass. By the same token, I've smoked indica, skunk weed, that was frosty as can be but the high was rather low grade.

I know an abundance of trichomes has nothing to do with the cannabinoid profile and I never implied that higher potency means higher THC. I believe the effects that cannabis has on the body can have to do with many other cannabinoids than just THC. I have some Cannatonic #4 in my possession that is covered in trichomes (very frosty) but contains almost no THC, in fact it was lab tested at .8% THC but over 16% CBD. The Cannatonic #4 is still what I would consider to be a potent strain with a high ratio of cannabinoids to actual plant material but its effects are vastly different from a typical THC rich strain.

Thanks for making my point. Perhaps you're getting what I'm saying, that from the Advanced Shysters rips to the seedbank knock-offs of knock-offs rips, the entire industry is wraught with fraud and misrepresentation. Seedbanks are notorious for their lies, schemes which includes shots of buds covered in trichomes. A solid white cola with a fancy name and supposedly next to nothing flowering period is gonna sell before an airy sativa type which has a field of trichomes barely visible to the naked eye. In this industry you're buying the ad with a lot of blind faith and anecdotal evidence thrown in. Then there's the Cannabis Cup "winners".

For some interesting reading BACKED BY university, lab tested studies, check out the potency discussion in Mel Franks book. He shows charts which reflect that even males can be more potent, contain more THC, than many female buds.

UB and HB sound like disgruntled former AN workers. that; or very inexperienced growers who fried their first crops with AN and are now on the longest temper tantrum ever...

 

[Huel Perkins]

????

I think you keep confusing me with someone else, I don't see any logic to your theories. I've used maybe 5 AN products in my life and never had any problems with any of them. They were all additives that I got for free which I did side by side grow experiments with before coming to the conclusion they did not improve my yield or quality. Actually I take that back, I did actually buy Rhino Skin one time to try it. Not sure why you think I am disgruntled....

no worries man. i got nothing against you. i love having a debate and you are intelligent with good arguments and logical explanations. if someone can teach me something new then i'm all for it. that's why i have repped you and liked some of your posts. cause, even though we disagree on some things we can at least have a civilized conversation about it and walk away agreeing to disagree.

those guys are a whole different story. just pounding away at their keyboards hating the world.

I had to kill this guy once, but he's still alive, when he witnessed my lip split out in the cold on a spliff...pretty embarressing especially when some alternative music guru wants to bring it up in a song....

"Hating the world"? Sorry, I don't like dishonesty and chest beating, tuna eating, smelly chick fuckin' posers like you and your AN friends.

There's a lot to dislike in the cannabis industry, reason why I refuse to participate in any of it. When you get thru beating that hairless chest of yours feel free to grab some tweezers and start on that bald headed newt between your legs.

And do us a favor, save the forum politics for something worthwhile, like getting the current idiot out of our House come November.

am i suppose to use ONLY bud blood for 2 feedings? meaning one week cuz i can probably fit 2 feedings in one week. is this right? just give it bud blood for the first week, then go into the nutes?

No. Use along with the base and other biological sups you may be using for that week, not just one feed. Look at the advanced non PH perfect feed sheets

thanks for the tip. i got another question. the feeding sheet says to put the same amount of GH gro/micro/bloom throughout flowering. but the label on the back of those is different. on the back, i believe the ratio is 1/2/3; now the sheet say to put it evenly. why is that?

You've never seen edude anywhere but here.

Invite sites go though uncomfortable slow periods. Also, most of the people in those site are not new gardeners looking for advice, it's old farts trying to tell other old farts what they do.. A lot of dick measuring..

I like helping noobs get started and to 'try' to leap frog them over all the bullshit and with out belittling them.

The best invite place I know doesn't advertise, you can't read anything on the site unless you're a member (sort of the point of an invite only site). Hard to have a private party in a glass house..

From what I can see, you do a lot more belittling than what you want to own up to. You can attempt to rationalize or justify why you feel the need to do it all you want but you do a lot of it.
