    Can someone please explain this?

    I always assumed that the reason we used to import weed in bales from those places, was because the weed from those places was unique unto itself. It was wild...but not wild as in hemp-wild. It was wild in terms of having to be from that place where it grew and evolved through open pollination...

    Can someone please explain this?

    Okay, well if I'm mistaken, then my apologies for the waste of time thread. But I always thought that a landrace strain was a strain that nature had created, where the genetic traits had been established and stabilized after countless regenerations. Sativa landrace strains would be from certain...

    Anyone else cannabis taste blind?

    I can't invalidate anyone else's experience. I can only speak through my own. I was a grower back in the 70's. I had a gallon-sized jar of every kind of landrace seed you could imagine. I got Thai weed from a Peace Corps worker after the Vietnam War. I had Gold Columbian, Oaxacan. I had Hawaiian...

    Anyone else cannabis taste blind?

    I never heard the term "haze" -outside of Purple Haze! We called weed by the place it came from..."Mexican" "Oaxacan" "Jamaican" "Columbian" "Acapulco Gold". I don't EVER remember the term haze in the 60's or 70's so it's odd there are Haze Brothers who have seed stock from then. This whole...

    Anyone else cannabis taste blind?

    I will! In fact, I think that most anyone would tell everyone if they actually found something that was really the real deal. But, I don't see how that will happen if it hasn't happened by now. There are many seed sellers who claim to have something....But everyone knows those seed sellers and...

    Tell me about Colorado Green Bud

    I heard it's legendary and some kind of lineage associated with notorious biker gangs....lol....I don't care about any of that. I'm just wondering if anyone has smoked it and what it's like. Thanks.

    Can someone please explain this?

    "Mikado is a hybrid weed strain made from a genetic cross between two landrace strains. This strain is 70% indica and 30% sativa...." If the strain is a hybrid between two, LANDRACE STRAINS, then how can the cross be 70% Indica and 30% Sativa? It is either going to be 100% Indica, 100% Sativa...

    3 X 3 tent: Updayday 500 watt light? 400 watt MH bulb? HLG300RedSPec? 2X Viparspectra XS1500pro?

    Search on Updayday on Amazon...a bunch of models come up. Yeah I'm leaning toward using it for the first time. Yes, it's the kind you can fiddle with the spectrum...OR, use one of the pre-set spectrums. Honestly, the instructions are non-existent and it's going to be a bit of trial-and-error to...

    3 X 3 tent: Updayday 500 watt light? 400 watt MH bulb? HLG300RedSPec? 2X Viparspectra XS1500pro?

    Oh....and going to use the Gas Lantern Technique in veg. I'm sold on this lighting schedule. I've used it many times and it is legit!

    3 X 3 tent: Updayday 500 watt light? 400 watt MH bulb? HLG300RedSPec? 2X Viparspectra XS1500pro?

    So, I'm getting ready to set up my Fall/Winter indoor setup. I have accumulated a lot of lights over the years. The Updayday light is the only one I haven't tried. It has some weird kind of built-in timer switch with green display that stays on ....not sure if I can bypass it or not. Anyone...

    Anyone else cannabis taste blind?

    My feeling is that if the old school weed, that I speak of, actually was around to this day, then everyone would be smoking it. I have been looking and looking and reading all kinds of reviews and descriptions. I've taken the bait and tried a few of the so-called real thing.....none of it was...

    Auto vs Photo

    Yes cannabis ruderalis....IF it's in there, then the plants grow differently. No one ever grew this stuff when the landrace strains were around back in the 70's. It's the plants that grow according to the photoperiod laws that are called marijuana to my generation. If the plant doesn't follow...

    Auto vs Photo

    There's nothing "wrong" with growing automatic cannabis....but it isn't the same species of cannabis and it grows in a completely different way than does photoperiod marijuana. So, when you have known marijuana to be something that grows in a certain way, it's an entirely different game to grow...

    Rehydrating tips

    While it may be true that citrus fruit rinds and tortillas, etc. might get moldy over time, I've done those kinds of things many times and didn't have any mold. Those tricks were typically just for a small amount of weed.....which meant that you only kept the rind in for an hour or two until the...

    NEWS: New Red diode from Osram

    Tell me if I'm wrong, but don't manufacturers include red diodes to boost their umole ratings? I seem to remember that MIGRO was saying that. My understanding is that white diodes already have those red frequencies in the spectrum, anyway.

    Anyone growing Hazeman Tuna Kush?

    Good to know, but I'm trying to get the skinny on his Tuna Kush, specifically. His F5 Chocolate Thai was terrible so if his Tuna Kush turns out to be as lame as that, then I'm done with Hazeman. I've read about this strain from other sources and it's supposed to be a real stank kinda terpene...

    What does a water pipe actually filter out of the smoke?

    Sorry to hear about the cancer. Yeah, I'm not sure what it was, exactly, but the article indicated that when you get high and feel that lethargic feeling, it's due to the body reacting to an invading "thing" that it's trying to throw off and, in the process, some of the immune system is...

    Rehydrating tips

    You need to create a humid environment and then let the weed come to equilibrium in it. You can probably get away with rehydrating a small amount with a piece of a flour tortilla in a jar for a few hours, but for anything more, I'd probably run a humidifier in the room to ~60% and then ;ay the...

    What does a water pipe actually filter out of the smoke?

    It's strange to think that, when I smoke a joint, ALL the tar gets inhaled. And when I dab some clean concentrate, there is relatively little residue to be inhaled. The type of highs are definitely different. I read somewhere that, when the body senses that something is "invading" it, it will...

    What does a water pipe actually filter out of the smoke?

    I also heard that THC is NOT water soluble....but obviously that tar isn't water soluble, either and that's why it's "filtered" out of the smoke. The water just makes it gob together. With that in mind, it also must not be soluble if it gets into the lungs....right? Therefore, maybe it's a bit...
