    Chocolate Thai

    Mine is about 1-2 weeks from finishing. I'm growing the Drawoh's Choc Thai F4. The smell is hard to describe. It smells great but I can't put my finger on what it's similar too. At 10 weeks in, I can tell you I don't get any hints of chocolate. It's not a dark, rich smell. Things could change...

    best florida strain hunt. best strain ever??!!

    When I was in S Florida back in the 80's, I snagged a bag of something that was incredible. I think a taxi driver hooked me up. anyway, I never had it again after that. All I can think of that came out of Florida that had any fame was something called "Triangle Kush".

    Chocolate Thai F4/NL#2/Meig's OG/Race Fuel/Tuna Kush

    Update: After a 12-day hang dry in the Gorilla Shorty, the Meig's OG is trimmed and in a 1-ounce Grove bag. That's right...ONE ounce! wow....cough...really not meaning to brag! ;) heh heh The plant did not yield much, but I wasn't really using any yield-increasing growing techniques. I just...

    SOG Strains

    I think the Drawoh's Chocolate Thai F4 would be a good candidate because it produces big colas and a lot of larfy side branches that don't produce much of anything. Trim them off and you end you end up with just one big cola. Several of those side-by-side would be pretty amazing. I'm a few weeks...

    Chocolate Thai F4/NL#2/Meig's OG/Race Fuel/Tuna Kush

    Update: There is NO doubt in my mind and in my experience that HPS light is THE preferred light for flowering a small hobby size grow. I know they are impractical by today's efficiency standards, but....well...the plants love HPS. For one thing, every time I grew with LEDs, it seemed to take...

    Do Landrace strain effects produce less paranoia?

    When people say that smoking a Sativa is a more "up" and "racy" kind of high, they should put a scope to the trichomes. In most cases, if the trichomes are clear, the plant was harvested too early (probably because Sativas take such a long time to flower and growers get impatient). Underripe...

    Do Landrace strain effects produce less paranoia?

    On a molecular level, THC is THC and it doesn't make any difference if it's THC from an Indica or THC from a Sativa. The differences come from the combination of terpenes and other cannabinoids, along with the THC. Those terpenes can vary among both Indices and Sativa, as well. Back in the...

    ApacheTech has finally updated their website and added some new products

    That big fixture has EIGHT fans! My worry would be that all those moving parts are going to wear out and break or not be as efficient after awhile. Can't imagine what it would be like to have to send it in for repairs. Shipping something that heavy would cost a small fortune. That said, I know...

    Do Landrace strain effects produce less paranoia?

    I don't believe there is really any difference between Sativa and Indica...or the many thousands of hybrids between the two. There are just different flavors and ripeness levels among them all. Certain smells and flavors make people happy....giggly...or nervous, paranoid. The setting you are in...

    Chocolate Thai F4/NL#2/Meig's OG/Race Fuel/Tuna Kush

    Update: I decided to chop the Meig's OG -probably tomorrow morning. All the calyxes are swollen....hairs receded...scoped the trichomes and saw mostly milky with some amber....and a few clear. Overall, the plant is telling me it's done. It looks done. I don't think I've ever had a plant finish...

    Sealing the cut end of the stalk at harvest to slow drying?

    Do you also have an exhaust fan in your tent? Also, your plants are a lot larger, greener and leafier than mine. When I hang my plants, they hardly ever have any leaves on them. They've gone through their "Fall colors"..... I tend to take plants a minimum of 10 weeks in flower (and beyond)...

    Sealing the cut end of the stalk at harvest to slow drying?

    I did think about that! I've never tried it, though....kinda make me nervous until someone who has done chimes in and offers some insight.

    Sealing the cut end of the stalk at harvest to slow drying?

    My flowering tent is kept at ~40%RH. I usually have allowed the soil to dry out before I chop the plants. Then I put the chopped plants into a different tent in a basement room that has a natural temperature of ~55-60 degrees F and I add an automated humidifier that maintains a RH of 60% in the...

    Sealing the cut end of the stalk at harvest to slow drying?

    Thanks. Yes, I see what you're saying. Maybe I am allowing my plants to dry out too much before I chop them so that they are already almost dry by the time I am putting them into the 60/60 environment....? Maybe I shouldn't let the soil dry out before I chop them....?

    Sealing the cut end of the stalk at harvest to slow drying?

    Yes, lots of air movement . I'm fearful of mold. Data is from a temperature/humidity gauge (you know the one...the really common one) Most plants are not trimmed, but I do pluck off any dead leaves that might still be on the plants and I always (usually) grow strains that have very low...

    Sealing the cut end of the stalk at harvest to slow drying?

    My plants always seem to dry out too fast when I harvest. I try to achieve the "ideal" (60 degrees/60% RH), but they still dry too fast. I've been kicking around the idea of using paraffin or wrapping the cut end in plastic wrap...or (?) something to try and slow down the water loss add some...
