    Poll: Has the quality of marijuana improved over the years, or not?

    I voted No because of the way that the old strains each had a VERY distinctive quality to each one. I prefer "as-close-to-landrace" strains as I can get. I can't argue that plants are presented better than ever. Things like size, density, the trimming is better, they are cleaner" etc. All that...

    Poll: Has the quality of marijuana improved over the years, or not?

    I'm an old guy....been smoking weed since I was a teenager....smoked every kind of weed you can name. I feel that I speak from first-hand experience when it comes to this subject since it was over 45 years ago that I started. I also realize there are some younger folks who didn't have the...

    Halp, I am waaaaayy too gone!

    Yes! Sometimes, a seedling can be a slow starter but later on, can really perform! There is kind of an advantage to being a small time grower and having to purchase seeds that are often very expensive....and that is that we tend to grow out all the seeds we buy -regardless of how they fire off...

    Halp, I am waaaaayy too gone!

    You don't need to wait 10-20 years for this to happen. All plants are constantly adapting to their environment -as are ALL living things on Earth. As the environment changes, so do the adaptations. But it is the way the seed is selected that will ultimately decide how a plant will grow in a...

    Now that commercial marijuana is readily available...

    And growing it was daring as fuck and only the hardest of hardcore dudes did that. But now, it's like a garden vegetable! Here are my tomatoes, potatoes and marijuanas! :)

    Now that commercial marijuana is readily available...

    I realize that the trend in more and more states voting to legalize, decriminalize, etc., IS an indication of increasing interest, but I mean for the people who now know the feeling of...I dunno....not having to work to score it anymore. I now drive past many legal stores with empty parking lots...

    Now that commercial marijuana is readily available...

    ...I mean to those in the ever-increasing number of places....Do you think that interest in smoking it is decreasing, increasing or staying the same as it ever was? For me, personally, I know I can access it anytime -either through my own growing or by going to a rec. store. At first, it was...

    gelato x gsc smells dead

    Yeah....the truth is that you may have just gotten a dud. It happens. You may have gotten a seed that expressed all the poorest traits related to the cross. That's one risk when you grow from seeds made from complex hybrids. Too bad there aren't more "landrace" seeds available. I say that in...

    What do you do with the left over plant material?

    Don't grow in an apartment. You could cause a fire and kill everyone.

    Line your Mason jars with parchment paper!

    The ones I have are the "apothecary" jars and they were gifts.....They don't have the built-in hygrometer, but they're pretty nice jars. They look cool and I can leave them out without worrying about light degradation....but the ones I have are too large to have full of weed sitting out...at...

    Line your Mason jars with parchment paper!

    Suit yourself, man. But it honestly doesn't take anywhere near the time to cut the paper as it does to wait for the solvent to dry....and then scrape it up and collect it.

    Line your Mason jars with parchment paper!

    Nah, these are not those special DARK violet glass jars. I know the ones you speak of. I have a couple of those, too. They are nice, but really pricey! The Mason jars I use are tinted purple, but they are also available in green and blue and red tinted as well, I think. They are mainly...

    Line your Mason jars with parchment paper!

    Fellas, Anything that falls onto the paper is also collectible....even easier, in fact. The trichomes I deal with are always sticky -never dry. My glass gets sticky even when I place the buds carefully into the jars -not "smashing" them in. This is why I love the paper so much. Plus, it's a...

    Very interesting insights regarding lighting from Master grower, Kevin Jodrey

    This series is in 4 parts, but, in this first one, he talks about plants and lighting that I thought would be interesting for some people, here, to read. Please enjoy! :)

    Line your Mason jars with parchment paper!

    I use tinted (purple) Mason jars and I vacuum seal them and keep them in a cool, dark place. But one problem I always had, was that many of the trichomes would smear all over the interior of the glass. Maybe I'm a bit OCD about preserving every last little bit of goodness, but it took a lot of...
