Update continued: Meig's Og

Update: Chocolate Thai F4 @ the beginning of week #7 The smell is just....I dunno...light and fresh?...nothing distinct....yet. This one might go for a long time.

How silver and gold was used in lyrics of the 70's: And here is how it's used in more recent times:

See? That's just the thing that commercial growers can't stand. They want consistency. I want variety. I know there are small time growers who get get lucky with an unstable strain that produces an extra-rich terpene....but maybe doesn't yield well....or is difficult to grow....or takes a long...

But....what IS the "mom" and "dad" of Chernobyl? Does anyone know? I know that S1's can be all over the place, so it's like gambling. I throw the dice and maybe I get something that's a chip off the ol' block -everything as advertised. On the other hand, I might get something that's not as...

Just ordered a pack of feminized Chernobyl (Slymer cut) S1 from Bob Bitchen's seeds through DCSE. I've been wanting to grow this strain for a long time. Looking forward to it! They are supposed to be sending some bonus pack -Cherry something....idr. I've been waiting to grow Chernobyl for...

Yeah, it's sometimes genetic but lots of times it's just a pH issue. I know this because I'm growing three plants at the moment and one of them is displaying Ca deficiency due to a pH that's been too low for too long. And it's also the only plant with the twisty leaf thing going on. However, the...

I think I'm also going to look into a CMH fixture and a good T5 fixture, too. Some of the very best tasting marijuana I've ever smoked was grown under fluorescent shop lights back in the day. I remember the plants didn't yield well, but OMG what a taste they had. I'm wondering if the plants...

This run I'm doing under my OLD 400 watt MH/HPS light and....there's no doubt the plants LOVE HID lights. Maybe it's this....Maybe it's that....I don't know. I've grown under both HID and LED with success, but there's no denying there is "something" in HPS that marijuana plants particularly...

In my experience, it was almost certainly a Mexican landrace strain that was "the" skunk. Why? Because that's where most of the weed, in general, came from at that time and in my area of the upper midwest plains states. It wasn't the brick weed that lots of people refer to when speaking of...

Update: Just watered and decided to take a group pic. Chocolate Thai F4 is front, The Meig's OG is in the back, and one cola on the NL#2 is on the right and stacking nicely! This coming Tuesday will be the completion of week #5.

I'll probably end up chucking some pollen if I happen to sprout a male next run.

The reason is because I can't sift through hundreds of male plants to find the great ones. Sure, I could grow a male and chuck the pollen, but then I have to deal with spending the time and money to grow it out. I'd rather save the already limited space I have and just apply some pollen. But...

Do seed breeders save pollen from select male plants? It would be nice to be able to buy some pollen from a reputable breeder, instead of just chucking the pollen from whatever male turns up. Plus, most people don't have the facility to be able to grow and select male plants, anyway. I would be...

Damn there are some fosty buds in here!

Absolutely! I have a clear memory of the time a friend of mine walked into a party with a baggie of that in his Levi's jean jacket (with peace symbol patches) and it filled the entire room as if a real skunk had been nearby. But, while it smelled like skunk, it wasn't repellant at all. It was...

Personally, I think it's that^^^ and also because the old, landrace strains that were exclusive to a specific region, often had lower THC levels but they also had a much stronger smell/terpene. It was the strong smelling strains that got selectively bred out of existence by modern methods...

Update: Today is the completion of week #4 of flower. I'm expecting (up to) 14 weeks (total) for the Chocolate Thai F4...but we shall see! Here is an interesting10-blade leaf (lower) as well as a leaf that started to split into two leaf tips (just to the right of center on the leaf coming...

LOL! Interesting point and I hear what you're saying. Back then, the weed was either shit or it was occasionally great. Same thing with the hash, I suppose. But, in my experience, I never smoked any Afghani black hash that wasn't incredible. It was SO memorable, that I will know it when (and IF)...

"stronger"? People who were alive and smoking hash back then are really the only ones who can truly know -because they were there. Frenchy Canoli makes some good hash for sure, but the soft, black hash that we used to get...the flavor was maybe a billion times "stronger" tasting....maybe even...
