Yes, they may be getting 28% less light, but the results speak for themselves at the end. I thought the same thing....less light = less photosynthesis = slower growth. However, after using this technique, I get equivalent results at harvest. Keep in mind, the flower cycle is the same. Honestly...

I am a strict convert for the Gas Lantern Lighting Technique now that I've tried it on my last three runs. The schedule is as follows: 12 ON 5.5 OFF 1 ON 5.5 OFF repeat This makes it possible to keep the plants in vegetative growth while providing only 13 total hours ON -as opposed to...

If I smell mustard and onions cooking outdoors, then it has an effect on me. It makes me remember going to the greyhound races with my dad when I was a kid... Pine trees on the summer breeze...There are certain smells out there that have the ability to make us remember...

Terpenes are volatile so, depending on the the volatility of each, they will basically "evaporate" into the open air if allowed. If they are kept sealed air-tight and away from light and kept cool, all the processes will slow way down. The old Mexican brick weed was never that great, That's...

I'm an advocate for curing. I got myself into a similar situation as OP on my last run. The problem I had was that I took my plants to 15 weeks to "over"-ripen the buds. What I didn't foresee was that some of the upper buds started to dry while they were still growing! When I hung them to dry...

Update: Everything is growing pretty well in the media cart that I use for seedlings and clones. The light is homemade from a galvanized drip pan (reflector) and a 4-bulb light socket with 2 5000K bulbs and 2 2700L bulbs -just regular light bulbs from the hardware store...also a small fan to...

I mean...either way, I'm going to use it up....right? :) I've done the same exact thing with Captain Jack's Dead Bug (spinosad based concentrate) and left the sprayer sitting in the garden shed for weeks at a time....still seems to work fine.

Also, I decided to go with using the Gas Lantern lighting schedule technique, again. I've used it the last three runs, and now I'm convinced it works great and, since I'm running HID bulbs this time, it especially makes sense. For anyone who isn't familiar with this technique, it involves...

Got a Meig's Og to come up and all the plants are looking fairly even, now. First seed to pop was the Chocolate Thai Second was the first Meig's OG (RIP) Third was the Race Fuel NL#2 took almost two days to pop, but when it did, it caught up quickly. I thought the first seed wasn't going to...

It happens a lot. I use a small stick-pin to get under them, at the base of the calyx they are coming out of, and then pluck out the entire calyx. Most of the time, they come right out. I sometimes like to take my plants a few extra weeks into flower to get more amber, and I often see them...

For sure it will kill all that stuff...It comes down to a trade-off. A couple grows ago, I started to develop a gnat problem. I had been using micos and feeding only fish emulsion and organic ferts -hoping for a healthy root system and nutes that would be readily-available. When I treated the...

Yes, I've used H2O2 with success, as well. I grow in 3-gallon fabric pots and they happen to fit inside a 5-gallon plastic bucket. I take the fabric pot, place it inside the 5-gallon bucket and then fill the bucket to the soil line with a diluted H202/water solution and let the fabric pot soak...

Real Thai Stick. Hands down...Nothing else comes close....The End...Only smoked it one time back in the mid 1970's....I can never forget.

For outdoor use, they are used for ID. Indoors, they can be used for control. They don't work perfectly, but they do keep the population under control a bit. The gnats get stuck, they can't reproduce.

I got it in Seattle at a recreational store. It was branded, dated and sealed. If it wasn't the legit stuff, then I don't know what else it would be. It was the highest priced bud in the store and everyone was raving. I had no reason to think it was going to be anything other than great. But...

Cookies Family brand is some of the worst commercial flower I've ever smoked. I knew it wouldn't be up the the hype...but it was actually embarrassingly bad. "The Soap"...just wow...terrible. NO flavor...nothing. All their flower looks like it was dried with a heat gun. Berner doesn't know...

I've smoked several purple strains over the years and, in most cases, they all had a "purple taste" that I really love. The reason they taste different is because there is less green chlorophyl in them. Chlorophyl; definitely does have a "green taste"...So, it only goes to figure that, when you...

Hey, I've been growing weed since 1975.....AND HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS DOING!!! ;) Seriously, I learn all the time thanks to the internet discussion forums, books, magazines and YouTube -MOST of which didn't exist in the 70's, 80's and into the 90's! Well, maybe it did, but all I knew about was...
